Lots of lies in here Jerry. Generally I follow a few sources I trust, my favorite being Breaking Points (although yes they have some Israel haters on there), and they will often share other sources. But it’s not to “believe Hamas,” it’s to try to find out the truth. And again, the only journalists on the ground are Palestinians because that’s all Israel will allow. Which is awfully convenient since they can just say they’re not trustworthy, or just kill them and say they were Hamas. And again, I’ve acknowledged that some of the journalists killed probably were Hamas, but the chances they all were (even just the ones Israel admits to targeting) is pretty miniscule and you know it.
Let’s not rehash old arguments and stick to current events.
Anas Al-Sharif. He might be the most prominent journalist killed thus far, and the one the western media is talking about the most (but not as much as you would think if they were really “Hamas-friendly,” or frankly as much I think they should considering a fellow journalist was assassinated).
Israel claims he was a Hamas operative “pretending to be a journalist.” But you don’t get 550k+ followers on x (200k more than the Free Press which you’ve cited recently and apparently is being bought for $250 million) or 1.7 million on Instagram by pretending.
Even if you don’t want to admit that it’s unlikely he was Hamas, you do realize there is an obvious motive for Israel to kill someone with a large following that is sharing images and stories of what’s happening, right?
