      Hamas have also been known to sleep. For a third of the day, the journalists’ activities were indistinguishable from those of the most notorious terrorists!

    Has anyone ever compared Israel’s kill rate when it comes to journalists compared to Hamas? I think they have a higher ratio for the former.

      Israel was responsible for something like 80% of fatalities among journalists last year, worldwide. So yes, easily

      Hamas doesn’t really make a habit of killing journalists. I mean they probably have one or two kills, but personally I haven’t heard of it. On the other hand Israel is… yeah.

        You’re reading that wrong, it’s not comparing Hamas to Israel, it’s comparing Hamas death to journalist deaths. As in which one does Israel have the better ratio on.

    Why not “Israel killed journalists covering the war in Lebanon as they slept”? Israeli airstrike make it sounds relatively passive as if it was an accident. With over 170 if these “accidents” we know that the IDF is either very, very incompetent or they’re not accidents at all

    Don’t worry, it’s okay because they claimed that they were combatants first. /s
