BEIRUT/THE HAGUE, March 7 (Reuters) - An Israeli tank crew killed a Reuters reporter in Lebanon in October by firing two shells at a clearly identified group of journalists and then “likely” opened fire on them with a heavy machine gun in an attack that lasted 1 minute and 45 seconds, according to a report into the incident published on Thursday.

      With their kill count, that actually sounds worse. It would mean that they killed so many civilians that you’d statistically expect over 100 journalists to be among them.

      Well yeah, they target Hamas, and all the journalists are Hamas. Totally different.

        I use that excuse for everything. “Sorry can’t go to in-laws, there’s a hamas tunnel beneath their home”

        “calling out sick, there’s a high value Hamas target nearby, so sorry.”

        “oops, my bad for rear-ending your vehicle but you had Hamas in your car.”

    The IDF lieeed? Agaaaain?

    Netanyahu’s War on Truth - Israel’s Ruthless Propaganda Campaign to Dehumanize Palestinians

    the Israeli government and military have unloaded a fresh barrage of allegations intended to justify the ongoing slaughter. The hospitals are Hamas, the U.N. is Hamas, journalists are Hamas, European allies are Hamas, the International Court of Justice is antisemitic. The tactic is effective, particularly because the U.S. and other major allies have consistently laundered Israel’s unverified allegations as evidence of the righteousness of the cause.

    Lucky for us we’re already on to the next lie of the UN repeating and IDF Zaka rape accusations as “credible witnesses” without any actual investigation.

    Just keep lying and if someone says you lied they are Hamas defenders.
