“No one is looking at us or the extent of this disaster or the crimes that we are experiencing in Gaza,” he said. Still holding his microphone, he slid off his flak jacket marked with the word PRESS and unstrapped his helmet.

“These protection jackets and helmets don’t protect us,” he said, flinging the equipment to the ground. “Nothing protects journalists. … We lose our lives for no reason.”

    lol, sure you do. /s

    He justified killing human shields, which is incontrovertibly incorrect.

    You dont like it? Take it up with Obama: “Nobody’s hands are clean’: Obama urges reflection amid Israel-Hamas conflict”

    How do you feel about killing hostages or human shields? Because I may also be questioning your humanity shortly based on that answer. If you think that response is worse than the stakes of whats being discussed I would say that’s very telling.

    Unironically, thanks Obama.

          It’s an interesting article, but it’s not an exhaustive look at the situation. Look buddy- the article is from the point of an American, and proscribes American actions that should be taken. While that is interesting, it doesn’t touch nearly at all on what the current parties should do (vis a vis Hamas and Israel) and it doesn’t apply ANY scrutiny to Hamas or suggest any actions they should take.

          It’s not that it’s not an insightful piece, but it’s POV is limited, and can’t be applied generally.
