Since 10/7, the UN has issued 367 reports on the Gaza Strip. A review shows the UN has never acknowledged Hamas’ use of human shields, referencing it only 4 times—as an “allegation,” Israeli “claim,” or unverified “report.” The UN has not devoted even a paragraph—let alone a report—to analyzing how Hamas has fought in Gaza. By contrast, it has issued at least 10 reports criticizing Israel’s conduct, including accusations of “indiscriminate attacks” and illegal strikes on hospitals.
A Nov. 2024 UN report accused Israel of genocide but made no mention of Hamas’ tactics. Similarly, Amnesty International & Human Rights Watch released reports in Dec. 2024 accusing Israel of genocide. Across 100's of pages, readers would barely know Hamas exists. Neither report discusses its use of human shields.
In this episode, Andrew Fox discusses his report (co-written with Salo Aizenberg) for the Henry Jackson Society—the “missing chapter” in UN and NGO narratives. It provides a detailed analysis of Hamas’ systematic use of human shields during the 10/7 war & wider Gaza conflict, drawing on international media, military assessments, legal frameworks & firsthand accounts to show how Hamas embedded operations in civilian areas, weaponizing Gaza’s population and urban terrain for tactical and strategic gain.

He completed 3 tours in Afghanistan including one attached to US Army Special Forces, as well as further tours of Bosnia, N. Ireland and the Middle East.
