The Associated Press reported that an Israeli shell landed among a group of international journalists killing the Reuters journalist and injuring six others.
Geez. The article doesn’t mention until paragraph six of seven:
“Separately, The Associated Press reported that an Israeli shell landed among a group of international journalists killing the Reuters journalist and injuring six others.”
It’s crazy that it’s not even news that Israel is launching shells at journalists.
Welcome to Israel. Reminder that Shireen was also an American citizen. Pretty sure nobody’s gonna bat an eye about this either.
For anyone trying to catch up on things, Shireen Abu Akleh was an experienced Palestinian American journalist killed by the Israeli Defense Force in May of last year. It didn’t make it into most mainstream news, but among people who pay attention to these things, it was shocking to see an American journalist murdered by state violence, but unlike Jamaal Khoshogi, the US state department refused to investigate or condemn Israel’s actions even after investigations showed it to be implausible that the soldier who killed her wasn’t aware of what they were doing.
There was also the American girl that got ran over by a bulldozer… Slowly.

Did I mention they call the bulldozer the “Teddy bear”, as in something you send to a child who’s in emotional turmoil.
Oh geez.
Thanks for sharing this.
Her funeral was attacked by Israeli police because they supposedly carried her coffin to the wrong place. Horrible story.
Also the hospital she was treated at before she died.

How about not conflating “Jews” with Israel?
US politicians fucking love regimes that murder reporters
Are they going to deny this one for months too like the last one until and independent investigation can confirm unequivocally that it was an Israeli munition?
