wait, he doesn't really have a two-face style uniform with Press on one side and camo on the other? next you'll be telling me he isn't half grayscale either.

> "While the army put out a clarification about the [first] photo, it never should have been distributed,”
I love how at the bottom of the article you can see that they admit he's a terrorist but then shift the goalpost, i.e. from "He's not a terrorist" to "Ok he is, but that image should've never been shared"
Journalism is shit and I really wish the laws were more clear about journalist integrity.

FPA rightfully states that the altered image should never have been distributed by the IDF. Where do you read any “admission that he is a terrorist” into it?

Probably these parts put together:
“Shoeib worked for Al-Manar, a Lebanese TV channel affiliated with Hezbollah, and the Ftouni siblings worked for Al-Mayadeen, another media outlet with close links to Hezbollah.”
….
“That was the graphic. One authentic part and one edited part. In my opinion, it was clear that it was edited. We didn't claim otherwise. We also published an original photo of him in uniform.”
The Israeli army spokesperson did indeed publish another image on X on March 29, purporting to show Shoeib in a Hezbollah uniform. However, the image is blurry, and it is impossible to verify its authenticity.

Everyone has “close links”, they’re part of the government, if you need to interview them, you’ll naturally have “close links”.

Lol it's literally two real photos superimposed on each other. I mean, yea, I guess that makes it altered - but is a very convenient way to dance around the fact that the dude was literally a uniformed Hezbollah member.

That doesn't seem to be an accurate interpretation of the article. "The Israeli army spokesperson did indeed publish another image on X on March 29, purporting to show Shoeib in a Hezbollah uniform. However, the image is blurry" – it doesn't seem to be describing the same photo. The 'Hezbollah uniform' half of the split image appears to be fictitious, and it's 'inspired' by a blurrier photo purported to be Shoeib.

At best, you could argue the guy worked for a tv channel associated with Hezbollah (and rember he was hardly the only victim of the IDF's bombing)
Killing him is still a war crime. Immagine if Ukraine started targetting on purpose members of Russia State TV or a member of FOX news got killed while covering the closure of the Hormuz Strait by the IRG
In both cases, the action would earn international condemnation

Ok putting aside that it is not a war crime...but the whatabout Ukraine is a fun one to play. Look no further then them targeting oil infrastructure the past two days while being cheered on here on Listnook. Israel and US do it and everyone loses their f****** mind. So no, I'm fairly certain that if Ukraine targeted someone in Russian state TV they would be cheered on, even though that would actually be a war crime (though I doubt they'd ever do it). This dude served in Hezbollah, he was fair game.

Israel doesn't kill journalists.

But if they did, they were terrorists anyway.

The reason I ask is I have produced examples before, using strictly non-Israeli sources, only to be accused of using Israeli sources.
And then when I produce a few, there are these shifting goalposts. Because it takes effort to dig into every claim, but it takes little effort to buy a press jacket off Temu and claim to be a journalist.
>Conversely, how many more journalists does Israel need to kill before you need to be convinced Israel kills journalists?
If you produce enough bad results, the question becomes on the accuracy of reporting. Who is making this list? Who is making these claims?
Anyway, it sounds like you are saying two is enough?

Israel doesn’t want to take any chances so it’s clearly better to kill journalists just in case. Same with children who are, in all likelihood, going to grow up radicalised.

I don’t that’s why I asked. There is no number of acceptable killed journalists, that’s not how collateral damage works. Civilian casualties are to be compared proportionally to the perceived military advantage. Hopefully it’s 80 Hamas members and 0 civilians journalists, wouldn’t you say?
