Prolific in it. The Committee to Protect Journalists recorded 129 journalists killed globally in 2025, the highest in its 30 year history, with Israel responsible for two thirds of those deaths. It has now killed more journalists than any other nation in CPJ's recorded history. More than any nation. Ever. In recorded history.

Because it's not "supposed to be known and accepted as fact" because it doesn't fit the wanted narrative? I truly despise conspiracy theories and how prevalent and invasive they are these days, BUT that's one that rings true and has enough empirical evidence supporting it for me to believe.

And the murderous Israeli people continually vote for it. They could just have relative peace if they weren't supremacist psychopaths who think they deserve ever more land because of moronic fairy tales. But they're courting and committing sociopathic violence because they're cowardly religious nutjobs as a whole. There are Israelis who aren't evil, violent supremacist sociopaths, but there aren't enough.

> There are Israelis who aren't evil, violent supremacist sociopaths, but there aren't enough. And most of them end up imprisoned for conscientiously objecting to the draft. The people in Israel against the genocide usually sacrifice their safety and security to make their moral stance clear, the very things Israel says it's protecting by committing a genocide in their name. F*** Israel.

Yes but they’re using claiming the journalist was “undercover” and was actually a terrorist, without providing any evidence, so they’re claiming it’s a national security issue. Like, yknow, the Trump admin has been doing for the last year. Make a wild claim, provide no evidence, claim it is for national security, do something worse, move on to the next wild claim. There was a time the government actually wanted to build trust with its citizens. That’s why over time, there was increased transparency, like the Pentagon allowing journalists to report on declassified info. But bad actors took advantage of that built up “trust”, and people are falling for it. “just trust me bro”

So they bombed a group of journalists in an independent country and no one bats an eyelid. Imagine if say Pakistan, conducted a targeted airstrike on a group of Israeli journalists in India. Or say Indonesia bombed a group of visiting Israelis in Darwin. It’s mind blowing how much sane washing the billionaire controlled media does when Israel does anything.

YouDotty Mar 28, 2026 +189
The majority of real people recognise that Israel's actions are reprehensible. As you mentioned, it's the billionaire media moguls and bought politians who are pretending not to see it. At least this artical has the balls to say that these journalists were 'killed' instead of reporting it as '3 journalists dead'.

And if USA wouldn't be ran by a spineless sociopath TV presenter turned POTUS, maybe they'd do something about it.

You guessed wrong Not that it really matters, if you're willing to handwave away the deaths of journalists because of their employer Here's the article in full, try reading it before commenting next time >BEIRUT -- An Israeli airstrike on southern Lebanon on Saturday killed three journalists who were covering the latest Israel-Hezbollah war, their TV stations said. >Hezbollah's al-Manar TV said that its longtime correspondent Ali Shoeib was killed Saturday in southern Lebanon. >The Israeli military said that it had targeted Shoeib, accusing him of being a Hezbollah intelligence operative without providing evidence. >Meanwhile, Beirut-based pan-Arab Al-Mayadeen TV said reporter Fatima Ftouni was killed in the same airstrike in the southern district of Jezzine along with her brother Mohammed, a video journalist. She had just been on air with a live report from southern Lebanon before the strike. >Top officials in Lebanon condemned the strike, with President Joseph Aoun calling it a "flagrant crime that violates all laws and agreements that protect journalists." >Al-Manar said in a report that an Israeli airstrike targeted journalists, leading to the "martyrdom of the icon of resistance media." A well-known Lebanese war correspondent, Shoeib had covered south Lebanon for Al-Manar for nearly three decades. >The Israeli army claimed that Shoeib was "operating systematically to expose the locations of (Israeli) soldiers operating in southern Lebanon." The army also accused him of maintaining contact with Hezbollah militants and inciting against Israeli troops and civilians, without elaborating. >Al-Manar TV did not respond to the Israeli allegations but described its correspondent as "distinguished by his professional and credible reporting of events." >Israel's claim mirrored past Israeli military allegations against Palestinian journalists that it targeted in its war on Hamas the Gaza Strip, accusing them of being Hamas militants posing as reporters. >The Israeli military did not mention the two others who died in its statement. >Since the last Israel-Hezbollah war began on March 2, Israel's air force has struck Hezbollah's civilian targets, including the headquarters of Al-Manar and the group's Al-Nour radio station. >Saturday's strike came days after an Israeli airstrike on an apartment in central Beirut killed Mohammed Sherri, the head of political programs at Al-Manar TV, along with his wife. >The latest deaths bring the number of journalists and media workers killed this year in Lebanon to five. >The Committee to Protect Journalists said that freelance photojournalist Hussain Hamood, who used to collaborate with Al-Manar TV, was also killed Wednesday in the southern city of Nabatiyeh.

[Israel-Gaza War Attacks on journalists across the region since October 7, 2023](https://cpj.org/issue/israel-gaza-war/) >Israel is engaging in the deadliest and most deliberate effort to kill and silence journalists that CPJ has ever documented. Palestinian journalists are being threatened, directly targeted, and murdered by Israeli forces, and are arbitrarily detained and tortured in retaliation for their work. Israel has systematically destroyed media infrastructure in Gaza, and tightened censorship throughout the West Bank and Israel. Inside Gaza, journalists report harassment and intimidation by Hamas. >By silencing the press, Israel is silencing those who document and bear witness to what human rights groups and UN experts agree is a genocide. CPJ calls on the international community to hold Israel to account for its unlawful attacks on journalists; ensure international media is given immediate, independent access to Gaza; and open humanitarian corridors for journalists. >>259 Killed >>174 Injured >>106 Imprisoned >Figures include war-related killings of journalists and media workers in Gaza, Yemen, Lebanon, Iran, and Israel. For more information behind the number of killed journalists, see journalist casualties in the Israel-Gaza war.

Sorry to disagree, but that is incorrect in fact and in spirit. The criminal was Jia Bei Zhu, Chinese national and fugitive in Canada, owned and operated the bio weapon lab, had ties to the CCP and the PLA. The Israeli guy was just a property manager for some of Zhu's properties and not at all involved with the Fresno lab. Edit: Israeli wasn't associated with operation of Fresno or Reedley labs all, but was arrested for his role as property manager for Zhu.
