Question:

Israel uses Palestinian civilians as human shields?

You keep hearing the Israeli lie that Palestinians use civilians as human shields. Yet all evidence from credible sources point to the Israelis in using that practice. There are reports by B'Tselem (Israeli human rights group), Haaretz (Israeli paper), MSNBC and others confirming the practice. There have even been Israeli court orders to the IDF to stop the practice (confirming that it was a practice). However, the IDF is always above the law, and they will ignore such orders as they ignore the international law.

Answer:

It's not only unsafe, it's against the law to disconnect it. I will not instruct you on how to break the law.
I had a similar problem with a smoke detector which would go off when the steam from the kettle happened. The unit was 25ft away, and of course this is NOT smoke. Did some checking and found out that some of the detectors with certain components do this so changed ours and no problems since! Ours is not hard-wired but straight battery. Ours also has NO radio-active components in it, which we understand is the best one to have, and not just for the obvious reasons. You may have a similar problem to me because it sounds like your detectors may be reacting to heat [like the steam from my kettle] and not to a fire's CHEMICAL component, which is what a detector is supposed to sense! Take all of your detectors [the ones you took out and the ones installed] to a testing facility [check with your local council, fire authority, electricity authority, etc] for the correct one to go to, for your own peace of mind and for others who may have the same units, that COULD BE FAULTY FATAL in the event of a fire. I am sorry for your frustration and hope you get the right help, SOON!!
Try calling a local electrical contractor to see if in your area smoke detectors are required in a kitchen. I say that because in the States they are not, but as you used meters not feet I assume you are living somewhere else and the local code may require it. If they are not required that close to the kitchen then you have reason to speak with management. It would then be up to them to either relocate or remove it. I sympathize with your plight. My nearest smoke detector is around the corner and 15' away form the stove and yet I have set it off more than once. In my house there are 5 additional detectors interconnected and when one goes off they all go off. Talk about annoying!
