Israel killed a journalist the other day. Shot in the head by a sniper as she reported in the IDF raiding a house in the West Bank.

This is her funeral procession.

**** Israel.

The video comes in half way through. What was it that caused the security personnel to advance like that?

Hate, racism, religion and fear most likely.

I looked into it, the police claim stones were being thrown at them from the crowd which resulted in them moving in. However, Israel considers the waving of the Palestinian flags and chanting of Palestinian anthems to be an unlawful form of protest though so it seems like it was going to be a lightning rod from the get go.

All in a days work, Stuff like that goes on every day in every city when Palestinians have to pass the border controls to got to schools, work or to their homes.

Looks like you know who has murdered yet another Iranian big wig. Best in the world at what they do

 

Makes you wonder how they’ve managed to ‘accidentally’ shoot dead 50 journalists over the years.

Yeah.

Then again that group is the pimply faced teens doing their 3-4 year military service and the other is the highly trained assassins who does this for a living.

Seems to be a bit of a feminist revolution underway in Iran after the ‘morality police’ beat a young Kurdish woman to death for not covering her hair. Hopefully some lasting positive change comes of it.

 

 

So brave of those women.
I would be too scared to protest in Iran as a woman.

Lots of shit going down in Israel at the moment - many killed today in occupied East Jerusalem, many militants killed yesterday, many Palestinian kids also killed before that and rockets launched. It's tit for tat - surely going to spill over into something wider. I hope the media keeps its coverage balanced.

The bombing of Iranian weapons factories is interesting.  

Iran has blamed the USA and "another country".   

If it was Israel, why not say that?  

A few photographs on line seem to show the French built Rafael.  They are operated by France, India and Qatar.
