I’m almost 40 and I don’t remember any war where this many journalists (during the whole war, not this one bombing) died in general, much less at once like this. It couldn’t be clearer that Israel is methodically targeting journalists.

That's because no war has previously eliminated journalists at this high a rate, period.

well they sure as fuck ain't killing Hamas. Someone needs to update the wikipedia for this "war" to change it from Israel vs Hamas to Israel vs The Associated Press
Seriously, can't remember the last time they killed Hamas en masse other than a single "commander" but they sure as hell are good at killing Journalists, blowing up hospitals, and butchering children.

They did kill the leader without even known. This is not a war or operation, this exactly why we call it genocide.

Israel is never having the "are we the baddies?" moment...

Israel is literally a terrorist state. Not just supporting terrorists, the state itself is actively planning and performing terrorism against civilians!
Support of Israel should be considered support of a terrorist organization.
Israel = Terrorism, War crimes and genocide.
Every government that still support Israel is an accomplice.

Associated Press didn't even bother writing their names and called them contractor. Mariam has been working for them for 2 years.

That’s disgusting. I have been tremendously dissatisfied with their coverage of this genocide, but that they would discredit their own staff… pathetic.

“Israel knew exactly who was there,” says Palestinian writer and analyst Muhammad Shehada. “Israel has killed 244 journalists, by far surpassing all 20 years of the war in Vietnam or all six years of the Second World War.”

If you bomb the same location twice so you can take out emergency workers YOU ARE DIRECTLY TARGETING INNOCENT CIVILIANS. It's not just journalists that are suffering from this murderous rampage.

It's something terrorist would do.

That was one of the trademarks of the Olympic Bomber. He didn't do it at the Olympics, but when he bombed abortion clinics, he would set a second bomb to go off after first responders arrived. By helping those he felt were murders, the first responders were complicit.

There was a secret Hamas tunnel on the roof.

Israel state single handedly terrorised and caused more damage to the civilians than ten worst terrorist organizations combined

add some of the worst drug cartels to the list and it still won’t be enough.
and any guesses as to which country has been biggest supplier of weapons and spyware to cartel and dictators.

I'm assuming they were all brown people? Because its just 5. They had names. Like if they had murdered a Jacky Jennings and he happened to be famous at claiming.... Murdered one climber....ouch!, more details at 11!

Thank god we have this genius US president, voted into office by other genius US Americans and he will end these wars in hours now.
The fact that Putin and Bibi have pictures of Trump diddling kids has nothing to with any of this. Best president anyone has ever seen will fix this.

trump is in office because of dnc being controlled by pimps like pelosi and schumer. despite having the personality of wet cardboard, harris would have been president if she would have made “any” meaningful promises. instead she chose to throw muslim delegates out of her rallies when IDF was burning kids alive in hospital tents.
even biden had plenty of time after the election to do something about these rabid terrorists. if he was shameless enough to backtrack on his whoring junkie son then he could have said anything even remotely critical of israel and aipac. instead he pardoned felons who
you can see the same scums doing their best to jeopardise mamdani rn
if we don’t want a trump again, then boot out every aipac or any other superpac shill out of primaries instead of braying about voters fault. there’s a limit how many times anyone can hold their nose to vote for a lying two faced hack.
