History will remember how the world stood by and let this happen
Just because you are terrified of something, it doesn’t mean it is terrorism.
If he was zero involved with doing anything, do we say a journalist has no responsibility to save lives and really only document?
That’s exactly what almost all modern countries say. That’s why photographers get the Pulitzer when photoing a starving child who is getting watched by a culture. The photographer chased the vulture away but left the dying child behind to go with his waiting plane.

It sounds so fucked, but its just reality. Giving the kid food in that moment wont save it anyways, because it wont have a sustained food and water source. You can just decide then and there “I will adopt this kid and stop being a journalist to take care of it” but then there wouldnt be any journalists left in the world very quickly. Its the same with war photographers. Not participating in the conflict is specifically whats necessary to do you job. Without journalists doing their job there would not be a single Palestinian left alive today.
Apparently the kid survived ten more years, even though he looks close to perishing in the photo.
I do agree with you, the inaction of journalists and photographers is what makes it possible for them to get their job done to get info out of conflict zones.
About my example:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Vulture_and_the_Little_Girl
then, he survived much longer than the photographer
Sadly the photographer never got to know that
I’m very sure it’s horrible for them to deal with too.
Well said!
The photographer of the vulture picture committed suicide a year after taking it. (4 months after getting the Pulitzer prize)
So yeah its not like these are robots who are completely unaffected by the things they see and document.
I didn’t even know what you’re trying to say.
One call would have saved so many people. That is what I am trying to say.
He was there as a journalist. There were so many other people there that already called. It isn’t as if he was documenting secret acts. His call wouldn’t have changed anything.
Even if you believe he should have done something, did he deserve to die? His crime was inaction, he didn’t actively participate. Other people were killed to get to him, in a hospital. Regardless of if journalists should or shouldn’t act, Israel never claimed he did anything other than documentation.
I thought the whole action was a well kept secret and that was the reason they were so successful? In any case, to me it is not easy to say he was or was not (morally) innocent. It is a complex topic and I have not even nearly enough info.
…
I can’t tell if you’re a troll, or didn’t pay attention at all during that time period or just utterly stupid.
It was a very well kept secret. Until, you know, it was happening. The security failure of the IDF was so massive that when Al-Aqsa flood happened it revealed to all the Gazans that they could just tear down the fences and leave.
This is one of the reasons Hamas had issues with returning some hostages. Hamas isn’t the only militant entity in Gaza, and others arrested (If the IDF can kidnap thousands of women and children in the west bank with no judicial process and call it an arrest, then so too can the Palestinians) Israeli’s as well. As a result, Hamas didn’t have all the Israelis, at first.
tl;dr Military operations aren’t secret when they’re in the process of happening and anyone with two eyes can see them.
I can tell you’re esl so I’m guessing either Israeli or Indian because no other nationality is this barbaric and stupid
Racist much?
Neither of those are races dipshit. Theyre nationalities
Indian and Jewish aren’t races? I mean race isn’t real so yeah I agree. The more accurate wording would be a xenophobic bigot. Better?
Nationalities who support or commit genocide deserve it. I say the same thing about Americans
