"The protest ended after about two hours when police told the demonstrators to leave and said they would be arrested for trespassing."

I am amazed how heinous the act of brazenly targeting and then killing brave journalist(s) in front of a hospital is gone without a whimper in the west

To me this is the same as when the Saudi’s killed a journalist which was front page news world wide for weeks

It’s insane


I agree. Killing journalists, bombing hospitals, killing people seeking aid… none of this should be normalized, yet we see Israel do it every day and US companies continue to profit on these atrocities.


> To me this is the same as when the Saudi’s killed a journalist

Yup.

They even cite this incident when shaming US pro golfers for playing in a league that is funded by Saudi money, yet most of the US Congress is bought by Israel and nobody cares.

They prefer vaporware. Big promises, absolutely no delivery.
