i think the implication is not that the reporter’s family was targeted, but that israel is not taking civilian casualties serious.
The embarassing part here is Blinken telling a news agency to tone down their coverage, even though the families of employees are being murdered.
yes, Blinken made his comment before the family died. That shouldn’t really change how fucked up this is.
The article very clearly accused Israel of targeting his family.
Yeah, but there’s a difference between an article saying something, and something being true. This isn’t exactly an unbiased source.
Yes of course and I’m posting on that article to question the claims it’s making. OP stated that the implication was not that the family was targeted but if you read the article it very clearly is. I want to know if there are any supporting facts because it seems unlikely to me.
I think most of the folks posting here read it as fact that Israel specifically targeted this guy family to scare others for reporting against Israel. It’s like “see!?, I told’ya !”
Did you even open the article? Just read the first paragraph.
Today, Al-Jazeera Bureau Chief Wael El-Dahdouh was reporting live in Gaza when an Israeli airstrike killed his wife and two children. Now, other journalists also fear their families could be targeted solely for them doing their job.
Have you even read my post?
It’s not about whether guy’s family died at all but wether his family was specifically targeted and wither the motive was to scare jurnalists.You said “most people here read it as fact that Israel tarteted his family” I’m saying well yeah the article stated it as fact that they targeted his family I just want to know if that is likely or not because to me it seems far fetched.
Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. It makes less sense they specifically targeted random journalist family than the version that his family was killed by being at the place that was shelled. It sad nevertheless, though.
