2023 Israel-Palestine Armed Conflict

Can any Israelis explain the reasoning behind what appears to be the targeting of Gazan journalists? Is there some sort of intelligence that they are directly working for Hamas? is it just journalist=bad?
I can't see why the IDF would be going to this much effort to kill Dahdouh otherwise, especially considering that Al Jazeera inside Israel is (inexcusably) treated with kid gloves. That being said, I have zero issue with targeting enemy propagandists in wartime, especially those who celebrated/livestreamed/participated in 7/10.

To be honest, though, I don't think that journalists qua journalists are being targeted specifically. A few over 100 killed out of 6000 claimed journalists in Gaza is about the same death rate as the general population.
 
reminds me of how those "death camps" had swimming pools and a theater and a marching band.
This is off topic but it has to be said the "swimming pools" at Auschwitz were water reservoirs for firefighting which were later converted into makeshift pools for the staff. Prisoners were never allowed near them.

The IDF struck Wael Dahdouh's house earlier in the war. He was not home but his family members there all were killed in the strike.

They're war criminals conducting an atrocity.

Israel got this one in the bag. Seems their strategy is to isolate strongholds and starve them out.

Many hostages as well as Hamas leaders are said to be underneath Khan Younis. When the IDF finishes cornering Khan Younis and decides to move in, that’s when things will really heat up.
 
Pro-Palestinian protestors are currently blocking I-5 in Seattle. Traffic is super fucked. The police are there but are just sitting in their cars and watching. Cars that have been stuck there all day have found places to slip through the barriers and are driving the wrong way down on-ramps to try and get out. I'm trying to get some videos of it off IG but I don't have an account so I'm having issues getting it to display.

Archiving doesn't work. I guess you'll need an IG account to view it.

Since they want to protest for Palestine, why not give them a taste of the skunk spray Israelis use on Palestinians ? Since we no the legal system won't punish them, why not just make them smell like shit for several days ?

also rn anyone with a phone can call himself a "journalist collaborating with" the BBC/China Daily/Al Jazeera/small town newspaper etc.

I agree that the IDF doesn't probably target journalists, but you might have seen the "journalists" that came with the terrorists during the attack on the kibbutzim, that's a little too embedded for me.

*If* the IDF is targeting journalists, it's far more likely that it's because they are involved with Hamas, not because Israel is concerned about bad press.

BTW, new footage of female hostages released. Video

AP “journalists” in Gaza are completely infiltrated by Hamas, to the extent they accompanied Hamas like they were embedded journalists back in October.
 
you are very silly

anyway I am sure that the "journalists" have cousins who are also "journalists" filming around with their phone for Hamas.

I think people are forgetting what "war" means. It means, among other things, that the propaganda arm of the opposing army gets targeted.

Lord Haw-Haw was hanged after the war because he spoke the English-language news of the Germans.

Streicher, the editor of a Nazi magazine was hanged for incitement to genocide.

You can't say "I don't consent, my name is in capital letters and I am filming in a public place and with a PHONE so I am a JOURNALIST and the Rules of the World which I am making on the spot allow me to film and get me the manager because this is unacceptable".

The Hamas guy wants to die in his bunker after there's nothing left of Gaza? His choice. The Gazans want to help him and his terrorists? Bombs away. Are Gazans saying we are tired of this Hamas and organising a coup and saying we don't support rape and torture? no. Then they get bombed, journalist or not.

Even more pussified as they keep hostages, which I think not even the Nazis did (if you bomb Berlin we'll kill all your POWs).

I vote for total war until the unconditional surrender and the death sentence for those guilty of crimes against humanity, but first they'll clear the rubble like German women in 1945, then we hang them. It's not revenge, it's the law - crimes against humanity are punishable be death in Israel, where they were committed.

Half this website is full of retards who clutched their pearls when Ukraine arrested American “journalist” Coach Red Pill, when everyone with half a brain is wondering at their restraint for not shooting him quietly in secret for being a a Russian spy.

Same fuckers who want the west to collapse and don’t expect to be put against the wall for being mouthy on the internet without the safety of the US and it’s constitutional.

CRP is not a fucking Russian spy, not least of which is because he's too fucking stupid to be a spy.
 
What are you talking about? It's a clear violation of International Humanitarian law to target journalists.
Yeah, and as we all know the users of Kiwi Farms are *very* concerned over the welfare of journalists and obedience to globohomo diktats.

It's dangerous work. There were a bunch of soldiers killed a few days ago when a truck carrying explosives blew up near a tunnel they were intended for (seems to have been an accident and not the result of enemy fire).
