Well said
Israel assassinates more journalists
- Thread starter JohnD
- Start date
Welll be that as it may ?? I will support Isreal as they don’t support / or aid fruit cakes carrying out terrorist attacks on Uk soil ??? Or interests ?
It's unpleasant I agree. But I still stand with the side who aren't designated terrorists who deliberately target civilians.
Here's something you could try, rather that give me unverified accounts of how Israeli warnings of their intention to strike are too short, can you give me one single example of Hamas, the Houthis or Hezbollah giving a warning of any description at all.
Just one will do.
So not the Jewish terrorists who invade, destroy and kill in West Bank, with the support of the Israeli army and its military tribunals.
And have been doing for many years.

"In Masafer Yatta, we see IDF troops shoot a young man named Harun Abu Aram at close range while confiscating an electricity generator. Paralysed, he is taken by his family into a cave but, we are told, he lived only two more years. (The IDF told the AFP news agency in 2021 that a group of Palestinians had attacked soldiers who were evacuating an “illegal building” and who fired into the air in response. It also said it would investigate the incident.) Later, in a coda filmed about a week after October 7, Adra records an Israeli settler shoving and then shooting one of his cousins. (According to Adra, the settler is still free.)
Elsewhere in the film, even peaceful protests are broken up. “Basel and I participated in dozens of nonviolent protests in the West Bank, which were all immediately deemed illegal,” Abraham says, speaking from Tel Aviv on the same group call. “By the definition of the law, any protest is illegal unless the military commander authorises it, which never happens.”
"Speaking to Adra and Abraham, it is hard for the reality depicted in the film not to intrude. Adra describes having to wait that very day at checkpoints ominously staffed by masked soldiers. That leads Abraham to point out the “structural systematic violence” that Israeli occupation exacts on all aspects of Palestinian life through day-to-day restrictions. (The film purposely roots its perspective in Masafer Yatta and does not interrupt the experience by following Abraham to his home.)
Looming over it all are the ongoing events in Gaza. Adra, a trained lawyer, has worked for years in documenting abuses and provides documentation to human rights organisations such as the Jerusalem-based B’Tselem (as well as aiding Palestinians who allege false charges against them). But he can’t contain his exasperation. “This is insane. I never imagined that the world will allow something like this, and keep delivering bombs and weapons and money,” he says of the past year. “You work, you bring evidence, you write, you bring videos, you do advocacy. And the results are the opposite on the ground, where everything is moving as the Israeli policy wanted, which is to erase us from here.”

No.
I wonder if filly thinks the murdered journalists were "warned"
He probably believes that like many of the 'journalists' in Gaza and Lebanon, they were members of proscribed terrorist organisations.
I recall back in the iraq war when Trevor McDonald was due to interview saddam husein
And saddam was a target for the American Air Force
He asked a senior US general would they call off an air strike if they knew he was there
No Trevor we would not ( he was told)

They gave a civilian shelter an hour but started bombing after 10mins. Scum.
“We didn’t have time to pack our stuff. It gave us just one hour. After just 10 minutes, Israeli airplanes bombed the school. It was a big massacre with over 30 wounded and more than 10 killed.”

In the video, a paramedic runs panic-stricken between dead and dying civilians in the immediate aftermath of the strike.www.bbc.co.uk
Anyway, looking on the bright side,
We're winning,
Nothing they enjoy more than killing non-jews.

It seems to much of the world, I think, that the Israelis are past the point of giving a tȯss about whom they kill.
They'd better be careful, their defences are well known, and not impenetrable. They can also be overwhelmed by cluster missiles.
Each intercepting projectile costs $50k. They have them in batteries of known size, of the order of 100. Half an hour to reload. That much took only a few minutes to find. Their longer range systems are far more expensive to use.
As it is, about one in ten or so gets through.
How many would think "Serves the ****ers right" if a big bomb landed in Tel Aviv and killed B.N.?

Too far ahead, they'll never catch up now.Anyway, looking on the bright side,

Having done their best to prevent the world finding out what is going on in Palestine, by killing the journalists, Israel was irritated to find that evidence of crimes against humanity are being widely disseminated by Israeli soldiers, and, in some cases, other countries are paying attention.
Israel has warned its soldiers to keep their crimes quiet in future.
"James Shotter in Jerusalem and Heba Saleh in Cairo
4 HOURS AGO
Israel has warned its troops against posting about their actions in Gaza on social media, after a Brazilian court asked police to investigate an Israeli soldier visiting the country who was accused of participating in war crimes.
The action, initiated by the Hind Rajab Foundation (HRF), a pro-Palestinian group, was based in part on video footage and photographs that HRF claimed showed the soldier taking part in the demolition of homes in Gaza.
The Israeli foreign ministry said on Sunday that officials from the embassy in Brazil had immediately helped the man to leave the country without being detained."

A whiff of urban myth
