    What a country. The US is complicit. Israel doesn’t care about international humanitarian law. At all.

    Israel attack on Yemeni newspaper was second deadliest on journalists ever recorded

    Press freedom group says ‘brutal and unjustified attack’ is deadliest since 2009 Maguindanao massacre in Philippines

    Thirty one journalists and media staff were killed by Israeli strikes on newspaper offices in Yemen last week in what the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) said on Friday was the deadliest attack on journalists in the last 16 years.

    Israel struck a newspaper complex in Sana’a, Yemen’s capital, which housed three Houthi-connected media outlets on 10 September. At the time, members of the Yemeni army’s press arm were finishing the weekly print edition, according to the publication’s editor-in-chief, which increased the number of journalists present during the strike.

    At least 35 people were killed in the attack, including one child who accompanied a journalist to the office, and 131 were wounded, according to the Houthi ministry of health. All of the journalists worked for either the Houthi-affiliated 26 September newspaper or Yemennewspaper.

    The attack was the second-deadliest against journalists that the CPJ had ever recorded, after the Maguindanao massacre in the Philippines in 2009.

    “It is a brutal and unjustified attack that targeted innocent people whose only crime was working in the media field, armed with nothing but their pens and words,” Nasser al-Khadri, the editor-in-chief of 26 September, told the CPJ.

    Killing journalists or media workers, even those who have an affiliation to armed groups, is against international humanitarian law unless they directly take part in hostilities.

    The Israeli military said in a statement that it had struck “military targets” in Sana’a that included the Houthi public relations department, which distributed “psychological terror”. It also said the strikes were in retaliation to continued Houthi attacks on Israel, which the Houthishave said are meant as “solidarity” with Palestinians during the war on Gaza.

    The Houthis have consistently launched missiles at Israel since the beginning of the conflict in Gaza, and have targeted ships in the Red Sea, which they determine to have an association with Israel.

    The CPJ said the attack in Yemen comes as part of a larger pattern of Israel killing media workers across the Middle East and excusing those killings by attempting to portray journalists as combatants. Since 7 October 2023, Israel has killed 247 journalists in Gaza, according to the UN human rights office.

    When Israel bombed media tents and killed six journalists, including Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif, in Gaza City on 10 August, Israel claimed without evidence that they were members of Hamas. On 26 August, an Israeli double-tap strike on al-Nasser hospital in southern Gaza killed five more journalists.

    Your tax dollars and government being complicit in murdering US citizens. Nice. Israel, that peace loving nation needs more US military aid to kill more Americans, never mind committing genocide against Palestinians. What’s it going to take, eh?

    Four US citizens killed, including three children, in Israeli strike on Lebanon, says Lebanese government


    Four US citizens, including three children, were among five people killed Sunday by an Israeli air strike on southern Lebanon, according to the Lebanese government.

    Israel’s military said it had “struck and eliminated” a Hezbollah operator in the southern town of Bint Jbeil, but acknowledged that “several uninvolved civilians” were also killed in the strike.

    “The IDF regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and operates to minimize harm as much as possible. The incident is under review,” it said in a statement.

    Dude, I'm done - I don't care about the bias you perceive from me, just as you clearly don't care about the bias I (and seemingly others on here) perceive from you. It's clear we both think the other has horse blinders on.

    If the commenter had simply omitted the unnecessary, untruthful, and racist comment, maybe the commenter would get something other than the responses they did.

    And if you're comparing that post to those from the antagonistic people that you keep fighting with (as much your fault as theirs), I've made it clear how I feel about that kind of behaviour too (pointless, childish, annoying, counter to quality discourse - overall not just non-productive, but counter-productive). Most comments here are embellished for effect, and no one actually wants to learn or grow. This place is a car ride with way too many children in the backseat, poking each other relentlessly.

    Holy South Park. So fantastic.

    You don’t see bias on this page? That commenter didnt post anything the far left doesn’t.
    Dude, I'm done - I don't care about the bias you perceive from me, just as you clearly don't care about the bias I (and seemingly others on here) perceive from you. It's clear we both think the other has horse blinders on.

    If the commenter had simply omitted the unnecessary, untruthful, and racist comment, maybe the commenter would get something other than the responses they did. 
    Whichever “side” you fall on for this war, not sure how anyone can view that comment with anything but disgust.
