SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Sanctioning 
Hizballah’s Illicit Use of Civilians as Defenseless Shields 
Act’’. 
SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following: 
(1) Human shields are civilians, prisoners of 
war, and other noncombatants whose presence is de-
signed to protect combatants and military objects 
from attack, and the use of human shields violates 
international law. 
(2) Throughout the 2006 conflict with the State 
of Israel, Hizballah forces utilized human shields to 
protect themselves from counterattacks by Israeli 
forces, including storing weapons inside civilian 
homes and firing rockets from inside populated civil-
ian areas. 
(3) Hizballah has rearmed to include an arsenal 
of over 150,000 missiles, and other destabilizing 
weapons provided by the Syrian and Iranian govern-
ments, which are concealed in Shiite villages in 
southern Lebanon, often beneath civilian infrastruc-
ture. 
(4) Hizballah is legally required to disarm 
under both United Nations Security Council Resolu-
tion 1701 (2006) and the Taif Agreement (1989).
