      You betcha! Everyone knows it’s Israel’s god given right to defend themselves from those dastardly French journalists! Don’t you know that documenting their atrocities is antisemitic terrorism?

        Of course, kinda like how when the evil newspaper Haaretz critiques Bibi or the illegal settlers they’re antisemitic (just ignore how they’re the oldest running zionist newspaper, that fact is antisemitic).

          YHWH himself could come down and tell them to stop killing Palestinians and they’d call him antisemitic.

      It’s not as if Israel or its leaders have to fear suffering any kind of consequences from France on this, whose posture has been nothing more than mild talkie-talkie and who even refuse to abide by an Arrest Warrant from the ICC on Netanyahu (a very obvious wink-and-nod from Macron to the New Nazis in Israel).

      With mainly Collaborator politicians in the various governments in Europe (notable exceptions being those in Spain and the Republic Of Ireland), it’s open season for Mossad to murder Europeans in Europe at will.

      That’s an absolutelly natural consequence from in practice condoning and even protecting Nazis going full-on Genocidal and they lose all fear of consequences.

          I use “New” or even “Neue” to distinguish the Nazis that claim to represent Jews and are genocidal towards Arabs, from the Nazis who claimed to represent Arians and were genocidal towards Jews (and Roma, though “curiously” here in the West almost nobody mentions those).

          Because the etnicity targetted by one group of Nazis is the “dominant” etnicity of the other, if I don’t do this some people confuse my anti-Zionist point with being pro-Zionist, especially given that the Zionists themselves will use Nazi as a form of slander against people who criticize them.

      But… Why target journalists when they already have free reign of terror. Few foreign journalist could only cause so much damage.

      The Israeli army themselves are attracting lot more notoriety.

        Why not, it’s not like the French government will do anything about it. Killing her sends the message to other Western journalists that they’re not safe if they badmouth the genocide. If this shuts some of them up, it’s a win for Israel.

        Israel has proven that they’re willing to target any journalist or independent media outlet both domestic and foreign. They’ve even targeted the center-right (and very Zionist) Haaretz.
