Yep this shit has been happening for 100 years.
Vietnam really changed the way people look at war, because it was the first war to ever be televised, and most people really had no idea what war actually looked like.
Assholes like Hezbollah capitalize on this by intentionally hiding their weapons and command posts in schools and hospitals and the like, and then whining about the innocent people who were killed when the bombs fell.
If they were so worried about the innocent people they wouldn't have hidden their weapons amongst them.
