Sad to see so many journalists die.

At least 24 journalists have been killed by Israel*

Fixed that for you

What does this subreddit have against us Jewish people? Kinda racist if you ask me 🤔🤔

BarrelAgedBoredom ,

This isn’t reddit. If you wanted to have a discussion, why are you starting off with a loaded, inaccurate question? Seems pretty disingenuous if you ask me 🤔🤔

Alivrah ,

They said Israel and not the Jewish people. There’s a distinction between the two and that distinction is important.

If it’s passive voice, the atrocities are committed by Israel. If it’s active voice, the atrocities are committed by Hamas.

As the honorable President biden said "It's just the price of war".

War unfortunately brings death to innocent civilians in droves. We are still such a barbaric race :\

Curious what you think he should say? Because I completely agree with him. It’s just a war about a magical sky God, and his magical holy land that is entirely made up and absolutely not worth fighting for.

Fighting to the death over dirt and rocks, basically.

We should be reaching for the stars right about now, but here we are dying for dirt, rocks and oil...

Easy to say when someone isn’t forcing you to leave your home, but kettling you in an area 25x4 miles.

“It’s just the price of ethnic cleansing and genocide” really doesn’t have the same ring, does it.

Mutual genocide all around

I think it sounds better actually. That’s what it is. Both sides doing the same thing. Let’s not mask it and pretend it’s anything but that.

It’s not both sides doing the same thing. Israel has been displacing, brutalising and killing Palestinians for 70 years. Israel has a modern army, a modern air force, nuclear weapons and a functional economy.

Since 1948, Israel has taken the vast majority of the land and continues to chip away at what little remains to Palestinians through illegal settlements in the West Bank.

Gaza is an open air prison that Israel constantly surveils and bombs, controls who and what gets in and out and even regulates how many calories per day Gazans are allowed.

It’s not both sides doing the same thing. It’s a settler colonial apartheid state brutalising an indigenous people who are holding on for dear life.

No it’s not. It’s about settler colonialism, apartheid and ethnic cleansing.

Really?

You have a population of Palestinians living their lives -religion irrelevant, until the British went “yeah, sure you can have a patch of land there - it’s their land but we ‘own’ it and what we say goes”.

Then Israel had a war and illegally claimed vast stretches of land that doesn’t belong to them to this day, and keeps on killing the remaining population that does live there and settling on the land that remains.

You could remove religion from the entirely. It’s the fact that for almost 100 years, the Palestinian people have had invaders illegally settle on their land and be unable to repel them as they’ve got the backing and support of the major world powers to let them commit genocide. Trivialising it in the way you have done helps no one because it masks important history behind “religion bad”.

You kill people constantly with the intent of eliminating them and you’re going to create a rebellious force from that population. Are they terrorists? In the eyes of the Palestinians, they’re most likely just brothers and sons who have lost their family in their youth, denied education and a chance at childhood and have grown up around war and are convinced their action is the only way to stop it. To us, sure, they’re terrorists. But I doubt anyone ‘sheltering’ Hamas is doing so out of fear and likely just sheltering family.

That illegal land grab is only important because it’s “holy.” Don’t pretend this is about anything else. How about they just stop fighting and keep the land they have?

Whilst the British were in control, the partition plan was very much an international idea, and the British were long gone by the time of the founding of the Israeli state.

Putting the Saudis to shame and making MBS jealous.

“when Israel kill 24 journalist, nobody panics, because it’s the price of war. But when I killed 1 journalist, everyone loses their mind.” - Saudi probably

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Despite repeated calls for a ceasefire by humanitarian groups and some politicians, the war shows no sign of slowing down as Israeli forces prepare for an expected ground invasion of Gaza — the timing of which remains unclear.

On Wednesday, Al Jazeera Arabic Bureau Chief Wael Dahdouh’s wife, 15-year-old son, 7-year-old daughter and grandson were all killed in an Israeli air raid, according to the outlet.

“The indiscriminate assault by the Israeli occupation forces resulted in the tragic loss of [Dahdouh’s] wife, son and daughter, while the rest of his family is buried under the rubble,” Al Jazeera Media Network said in a statement.

Further, the organization called on all authorities “to ensure the safety of journalists inside Israel, where reporters have been subject to verbal and physical abuse by civilians and security forces on multiple occasions.”

Roshdi and Yaser are life: they gave voice to the people of Gaza, to their smiles, to the stories locked in fear, to hopes cherished secretly from the oppression of the Israeli occupation," the company said.

Research by CPJ found that there were more than 10 incidents of assaults, arrests, threats, cyberattacks and censorship targeting journalists as they carry out their work in Israel and in the Palestinian territories of Gaza and the West Bank.
