It's ok guys, the missile just happened to safely "land" in the area, by chance, "next to" the guy, who is only a "presenter", not a journalist . There's definitely no war crime to see here.

Our "Journalists", their "Presenters"

History is written by the victors. This realization has made me question every version of history I have ever been taught

As moral compasses adjust over time, it has become clear that almost everyone that made it into history books was an asshole. And the ones that weren't might have only been that way because they died too soon or history had gaps.

Ahh the BBC, Pinnacle of using soft language (*passive voice is what I meant here) to describe war crimes

[–] IMALlama@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Only when Israel is the perpetrator. This is the NYT, but the BBC does the same thing.

Yuuuup. Almost like there's a lot of powerful people worldwide that rely on propaganda to not just obfuscate their horrifyingly immoral acts, but create a culture where these acts are permissible when discovered.

Think about how the news used passive voice to never use the word rape or torture to describe what the epstein elite were doing to children, despite it being clearly laid out in front of our eyes.

Same thing happening in Gaza, Lebanon, Sudan, West Papua, and now Iran, in a non exhaustive but exhausting list of countries where the west is funding and arming genocides in the name of "Spreading democracy" (Stealing Natural Resources ) while the news stations softly softly their way around talking points.

Israel definitely didn't try to kill this journalist or the 300 journalists they successfully killed in the last 2.5 years.
