Analysis: Israel's intent to annihilate Gaza would have been clear had we listened to Palestinian journalists, rather than the BBC. Israel’s justification for the mass slaughter of Gazans was built on "easily discredited lies from the start: of beheaded infants, of babies in ovens, of mass rape." "It should surprise no one that Israel continued advancing similarly outrageous lies..."

Report: "Judge Sebutinde’s statement that it is her divine duty to stand with Israel [in its ICJ case] calls her impartiality into question. Not only must a judge act impartially, but they must appear to do so in the eyes of a reasonable observer". "Sebutinde’s comments may not cause formal consequences, but will instead cause reputational damage" - both to her & to the ICJ as a whole.  ~Sergev Vasiliev, int'l law scholar

After recent comments, should Julia Sebutinde still serve on Israel cases at the ICJ?

Report: "You see how Palestinian journalists are treated. There’s no protection when they are alive. And after they are killed, no one even mentions them." Many news outlets that the killed journalists worked for did not even mention the names of their contributors... rather, described them as "contractors" or "freelancers"; when they were alive, they were working 24/7 to document for these news outlets.

Report: "Western media manufactured consent for Israel’s killing of Gaza journalists" "The US media watchdog, Fair, found evidence of UK & US media delegitimising Palestinian voices." "The establishment media overall centered Israel’s narrative, tried to delegitimize pro-Palestinian sources, & did not contextualize the killings within the larger context of the genocide”.

Report: The Israeli military strategy that falsely links Gazan journalists to Hamas. The aim of Israel's so-called “Legitimization Cell" is to bolster Israel’s international image. To placate outrage over Israel’s murders of reporters, this PR cell looks for Gaza-based journalists that could be portrayed as undercover Hamas operatives.
Israel's murderous killing spree against Palestinian journalists
Targeting independent Palestinian voices in Gaza is a deliberate attempt to silence truth-tellers.

"The double tap strike used by Israel to kill the journalists at Nasser Hospital".... was pioneered by the US during the infamous war on terror. An initial drone strike is followed by another attack to kill rescuers. Western news organisations systematically dehumanised Palestinians from the start. They're conveyor belts for an Israeli regime intent on wiping Palestinians off the map. ~Jeremy Scahill

Report: Israel’s Nasser Hospital attack was targeted, not accidental. Israeli military officials had claimed tank fire was responsible, & Netanyahu called it a “tragic mishap”. But the Hind Rajab Foundation said footage indicates it was a guided-missile "deliberate double-tap war crime, not an accident." Hind Rajab will be filing a legal case.

"We do not need more eulogies; we need justice." "Don’t mourn the deaths of Palestinian journalists. Don’t offer condolences. Act, stop Israel, & hold journalists’ murderers to account." "If mourning Palestinian journalists allows you to feel less guilt, if it makes you feel as though you have fulfilled your duty towards them, then don’t mourn them."
