I was waiting to see how long it took for someone to "make this about Palestine" - their strategy is to inundate all discussion with the topic.

Over half the journalists in the Gaza Strip are affiliated with Hamas. Many of them infiltrated Israel in 2023, and some of them held Israeli hostages in their homes, including children hostages.

So Israel killing "bad journalists" is fine, but Russian are killing only the good ones?

Nice world to live in.

You should know that any country can declare a journalist a foreign spy, a terrorist, but does it give them right to kill?

Without due process, without trial? Because someone says "they are Hamas".

It's Godwin time.

Hamas claims that the journalists are Hamas, not Israel. And I'm not declaring any journalist "good" or "bad". I'm stating that a Hamas member is a valid target. Him moonlighting as a journalist does not change that.

Every claim need to be proven and everyone deserves a process. In a democracy of course, it may be different in a fascist state committing a holocaust.

That's not how things work when you are participating in hostilities in an active war zone. What a ridiculous statement to make.

That site seems completely unbiased and not at all fed by the propaganda coming out of Israel. Thanks for finding such a reliable and trustworthy source.
