And raid her home while her family and friends were mourning
11 May 2022
Israeli forces have shot dead Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian health ministry.
She was hit by a live bullet on Wednesday while covering Israeli raids in the city of Jenin, according to the ministry and Al Jazeera journalists.
In video footage of the incident, Abu Akleh can be seen wearing a blue flak jacket clearly marked with the word “PRESS”.
Abu Akleh, 51, was born in Jerusalem. She began working for Al Jazeera in 1997 and regularly reported from across the occupied Palestinian territory.

IDF kill US journalist
Israel has killed more than 50 Palestinian journalists since 2001, according to the Palestinian Journalism Syndicate, and Reporters Without Borders has recorded more than 144 journalists injured in just the last four years.
So was she deliberately targeted (sniper) or a stray “live” bullet? (What’s a live bullet, meaning not a ricochet?)
If she’s in the thick of it there’s a high risk she’ll get injured or shot. Part of the job.

pew, pew, pew, pew!
Murdered by yet another species of megalomaniac.
Agree 100%, no life is worth more than another. Press usually wear vests and helmets with very specific markings which would be especially visible through a telescopic sight. She was shot in the neck, so the shooter would have seen her jacket and helmet which both had 'Press' signage.
re: live bullet: Live ammunition means a cartridge consisting of a case, primer, propellant powder, and a single metallic projectile, no less than 30 grain, and with a velocity more than 500 feet per second when fired. Live ammunition does not include simulated, marking, or rubber projectile ammunition.
There's a video floating round on the internet where you see a Palestinian shooting very close to the scene and claiming he shot a soldier but the video states that on that day no Israeli soldiers were injured.
I think the Palestinian authorities have the body
They're not going to to do it autopsy.
Anyway I'm just telling you what I saw.

Maybe he was just a bad shot. Helmets don’t stop high velocity bullets do they?rusty tool wrote: ↑Thu May 12, 2022 1:33 pmAgree 100%, no life is worth more than another.

Anyhoo. Moot. She’s dead. RIP.
Fuck the invaders.
