Yeah.....wait until you hear of the horrors russian soldiers did in the early days of the war.

I won't elaborate, because it's too disturbing. I wish I didn't know, and won't subject you to that same knowledge.

Despite the crazed wanna be dictator, Hungary has been in the EU and NATO for a couple of decades now.

But since Orban loves to suck putins balls, he probably will try to spin it as an attack on Hungarian energy sources and thus on EU itself.

Bullshit, but I'm sure he'll try it.

One day, when it’s safe, when there’s no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it’s too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this.

Nooooo, a journalist with important people from the place he's covering?

Clearly he needed to die /s

Zionist pos

Ok, after some digging,the first picture Is him in 2021 at a pro hamas thing saying a parade of green and such, so make of that what you will. The second picture was taken in 2020 and involved him also stating (and I’m paraphrasing) to praise the people of gaza and to show the world what is happening to the people living there. The third pic I couldn’t find much except an article from The Australian which was behind a paywall.

And the fourth pic is also hard to source, if anyone wants to take a crack at it. As for the guy who posted this, hey man, give us some context, I’ve seen pics of good people doing bad things and bad people doing good things, pictures alone don’t mean shit without back story

Yes, that is indeed what a good journalist looks like.

Especially one who won a Pulitzer for covering Palestinians. You know, the people in all those pictures. Almost like he needs to be around them to journal what's happening. You know, for good journalism.

How fucking cooked is your brain on propaganda to think this indicates anything to the contrary?

You think someone taking a picture in front of a Ronald McDonald statue means they work at McDonald's?

Propaganda is easy to spot when it is this incredibly stupid. What's your excuse to not spot it?

You seem like one of those far right nazi Germans.

Maybe it's time to head back home.

No, according to the Geneva Conventions only armed combatants are legitimate targets.
A militant Hamas member who is injured and in hospital is not a legitimate target.

A journalist, even if he was a Hamas member, is not a legitimate target.

A doctor, even if he worked for the Hamas run health ministry is not a legitimate target.

And here you are wrong. There is a difference between Hamas armed wing and government workers. For Israel they are the same. According to international law they are not.

For Israel every male in Gaza is a Hamas fighter which is so inherently wrong. They simply kill those males with utter impunity.

And if we have a bit more critical thinking, even if he was a legitimate fighter, why didn't they kill him when he was alone. Why did they kill him when he was with his colleagues. Because they never said anything about the other victims. It is almost like there is a clear trend of killing local journalists and not allowing international ones, so that they can control the narrative.

For Israel every male in Gaza is a Hamas fighter which is so inherently wrong.

That is not true. You're being shown video of a guy that's dressed like a civilian being killed by a drone and told that's not Hamas because they look like a civilian. But Hamas doesn't wear uniforms. They all dress like civilians. So is that guy a civilian or Hamas? Depends on who you believe.

And that's the horrible nature of Hamas. You may think that a military having their soldiers wear uniforms and clearly mark their vehicles as military is stupid because it makes them obvious targets. But we do this so in a war it's easy to distinguish between military and civilians. This results in there being less civilian casualties. You may think that Hamas is being "smart" by dressing like civilians and hiding among the civilian population, but really it just results in higher civilian casualties. We respect soldiers for putting on a uniform because that's them taking on additional risk to make civilians safer. Hamas doesn't do this because why would they? More civilian casualties brings more sympathy for them, and more money being sent to them.

And international law agrees with this. The reason why captured Hamas are treated as criminals and not prisoners of war is because that's what international law considers them to be. If they wore uniforms they would be POWs, but since they don't they are criminals. Of course if they wore uniforms the war would be over fairly quickly and there would be much fewer casualties. But this is why international law is the way it is. To avoid long drawn out wars with combatants that don't wear uniforms resulting in a high number of cvilian casualties.

Hamas is a criminal organization, and has been declared a terrorist group by most sensible countries for good reason.

And if we have a bit more critical thinking, even if he was a legitimate fighter, why didn’t they kill him when he was alone.

That's not how wars work. It is expected for a military to keep their own civilians safe by building their bases apart from civilians (not under hospitals and schools) and wearing uniforms. The onus isn't on your enemy to keep your civilian population safe, the onus is on your military to keep you safe. Hamas is doing the exact opposite of keeping Palestinian civilians safe, they're using the tactic of purposefully putting their civilian population at risk and for some reason you think it's fine for them to do this. It is not illegal in war to hit a target because your enemy insists on using civilians to protect themselves. Hamas is using cowardly tactics, and telling you this is a good thing to do and you're believing them.

And here you are very wrong. Because Israel killed more than 60K people so far, and according to their calculations they killed 20K Hamas fighters, pretty much all the male victims above 16 years old from those 60K casualties. So according to their logic all the male victims are Hamas fighters, which is simply not true.

And international law agrees with this. The reason why captured Hamas are treated as criminals and not prisoners of war is because that's what international law considers them to be.
icrc.org/en/document/FAQ-rules… seems to disagree with you. And even if we give you the benefit of doubt. Who is saying who's a terrorist and who's a civilian without any proper due process. Without any court hearing, what happens with the everyone's innocent unless proven guilty.

That's not how wars work. It is expected for a military to keep their own civilians safe by building their bases apart from civilians

You mean exactly like IDF, whose headquarters is in the center of Tel Aviv, surrounded by Hospital, train station and a Shopping Mall. And mind you, that's not the only exception.

And speaking of terrorists, I am really wondering what you think of Irgun and Lehi, who were prescribed as terrorist organizations and then embedded in the IDF.

I don't have a problem condemning Hamas, the same way I would condemn any other terrorist organization. But can you do the same? And what is the justification of embedding radicalized elements in your regular army. This would be the same as post war Germany to use the same Nazis that were responsible for so many atrocities in their regular army.

It is not illegal in war to hit a target because your enemy insists on using civilians to protect themselves.

Recently Israel hit the same hospital 4 times killing scores of journalists and their whole justification was because Hamas had a camera there. They hit the same spot two times. Which by the way is a war crime.

And why is Israel not allowing international investigations nor international press inside Gaza? What is your take on this.

In Iran they proved capable of hitting a single apartment in a densely populated apartment building, but in Gaza they seem to have destroyed most of the civilian infrastructure and farmland, desalination plants, repeatedly blocked humanitarian aid, electricity, fuel deliveries, and food. Isn't this a collective punishment?
