Yet No one is talking about the journalists

Hard to report when they killed all the journalists

Can't report on crimes against humanity if there's nobody to report them.

I think something like 20 journalist have died in Russian strikes in 3 years. Kinda crazy when you make the Russian military look measured and professional.

Idk about that. Idf love to target them so have gotten really good at taking them out :/

"as of" not "since" 18 march.

That would mean they were all killed today.

Honestly if that statistic was provided to me out of context, that Israel have killed 95 more reporters today alone, I wouldn't even contest the information. I'm not even sure what Israel could do to catch me off guard beyond supplying Palestinians with basic human resources.

Insane cults shouldn't run countries. All religious people are fucking trash and should be locked up in asylums.

Go look up the Paradox of Tolerance.

The moment a person or country breaches the societal contract of mutual peace and tolerance they have simultaneously revoked their right to the same.

We can live together peacefully, but if you start throwing punches I have every right to fight back until you stop. It's that simple.

Religions and religion based governments that want to genocide others shouldn't be tolerated.
