*In Oct 2023, at the barbarian [[Iran]]/[[Hamas]]/[[PIJ]] onslaught which led to [[Swords of Iron]], a reformed bi-partisan bill was underway:
{{Cquote|The latest measure extends the length of sanctions on these groups from 2023 to 2030 and gives Congress the power to force the administration into leveling economic penalties on those leading and supporting the various terror groups. It also would require the president to justify in writing any decision to waive sanctions or skirt their imposition.
“By reforming the [2018] Sanctioning the Use of Civilians as Defenseless Shields Act and giving Congress a greater role in ensuring these critical sanctions are implemented, this bipartisan legislation sends a clear signal that the United States will severely punish this behavior,” Gallagher said.
The bill specifically addresses Hamas’s surprise attack on Israel, noting that those taken hostage by the group are effectively being used as human shields. It also addresses the terror group’s decision to embed rocket launchers and weapons caches in densely populated areas throughout the Gaza Strip. Hamas does this to ensure Israeli forces unintentionally kill civilians.
“Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and other groups that cynically exploit civilians as human shields are responsible for the deaths of countless Israelis and Palestinian civilians alike,” Sherman said in a statement, adding that the bill will make “certain that the United States will hold terrorists accountable for their use of this disgraceful tactic.”<ref>Adam Kredo, [https://freebeacon.com/latest-news/after-hamas-strike-congress-wants-to-sanction-terror-groups-use-of-human-shields/After Hamas Strike, Congress Wants to Sanction Terror Group’s Use of Human Shields], ''Free Beacon'', Oct 10, 2023</ref>
