Pro-Palestinian journalist found dead on rooftop in Marseille
Authorities in Marseille have launched an investigation to determine the cause of Vlahovic's death.
French journalist and renowned Middle East expert Marine Vlahovic was found dead at her home in Marseille on Monday, November 27.
According to reports by La Provence, her body was discovered on the roof terrace of her residence by friends who had grown concerned after she failed to respond to calls or messages. She was 39 years old.
According to ARTE Radio, Marine Vlahovic had dedicated part of her short life to the Palestinian cause.
In Gaza Calling, she compiled video and voice messages from her colleagues and friends in Gaza, trapped under the bombs.
Did Israel just pull a Russia?
I think you need to read about the history of Mossad.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mossad
Israel has a long history of assassinating people abroad.
More like a Boeing
they only take out traitors
Fuck you.
Ah yes, those famously traitorous Moroccan waiters https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lillehammer_affair
So you've made this comment before, which makes me think the one you've made here is satirical/sarcastic, or otherwise misjudged. Can you expand on this?
If you consider journalists traitors, then maybe you're on the evil side of this issue.
Authorities in Marseille have launched an investigation to determine the cause of Vlahovic's death.
They'll get to it just after they figure out who blew up NordStream 2
We...uhhh... suspect Russian involvement
Well that could mean anything between "she died of not immediately obvious medical reason, so cause of death inguiry is needed" to "she was murdered, we are investigating". Heck to investigate "there is no external markers, but we don't know is it medical stroke or a poisoning murder".
So I would say, wait until they investigated and tell, if they suspect foul play before jumping to conclusions. Not that Israel isn't capable and on choosing so willing, but sometimes people just suddenly die of medical causes without prior warning.
"She was so overcome by the guilt of being an antisemitic terrorist degenerate that she climbed up on that roof, tied herself up, and shot herself twice in the back of the head."
The very important difference is that (apparently) murdering journalists is bad, but destroying disgusting pipelines controlled by fascist capitalists is actually good.
It was an ukrainian triggerman
It's disgusting to go after journalists who do nothing but uncover the truth.
Stories like these might frighten journalist, leading us into a dystopian world of wars and lies.
I think we are a bit farther than "might".
I wouldn't mind doing this type of journalism if I was even remotely skilled at writing but the fact is they don't get paid nearly enough. This women was probably passionately pursuing her own journalistic ambitions with no payout other than the work itself. Then she was murdered for it.
leading us into a dystopian world of wars and lies.
Leading? Ye best start believin' in dystopias, yer in one!
Also known as "the world"
I may be jumping to conclusions here but this smells like mossad
It's not as if Israel or its leaders have to fear suffering any kind of consequences from France on this, whose posture has been nothing more than mild talkie-talkie and who even refuse to abide by an Arrest Warrant from the ICC on Netanyahu (a very obvious wink-and-nod from Macron to the New Nazis in Israel).
With mainly Collaborator politicians in the various governments in Europe (notable exceptions being those in Spain and the Republic Of Ireland), it's open season for Mossad to murder Europeans in Europe at will.
That's an absolutelly natural consequence from in practice condoning and even protecting Nazis going full-on Genocidal and they lose all fear of consequences.
You betcha! Everyone knows it's Israel's god given right to defend themselves from those dastardly French journalists! Don't you know that documenting their atrocities is antisemitic terrorism?
But.. Why target journalists when they already have free reign of terror. Few foreign journalist could only cause so much damage.
The Israeli army themselves are attracting lot more notoriety.
Pour encourager les autres
They have murdered far more journalists in and around Gaza and in Lebanon and assassinated who knows how many others overseas.
What's weird is that I can't find even one article about her death in the more mainstream French newspapers such as Le Monde or Le Figaro or Libération. There's something in Ouest France. Did anyone find more?
They're currently not treating her death as suspicious. I know it doesn't mean that it isn't but I think it's worth mentioning.
When I entered her name in google some small independent articles come up, but its clearly being silenced on all the major networks.

It happened days ago so its not an issue of waiting for the major news outlets to catch on-- its censureship.
Truly, Rest in peace Marine Vlaholic, and good for you for doing what you did.
Very sad to see this happen.
While the circumstances remain unclear, police have stated that there is no initial evidence that a crime has been committed.
Are you fucking kidding me
No cause of death stated, which makes me think it's either something subtle and hard to detect like a poison, or something unpublishably obvious like a bullet
Somebody fucking protect Norman Finkelstein before his neighborhood mossad members get his ass
Definitely suspicious af, but until there is a clear evidence we can only speculate.
You don't give people who have been murdering journalists, aid workers, and medical personal the benefit of the doubt. you assume and absolve them later if facts don't substantiate it. this isnt a trial there isn't an individual being accused. its a state with a history of murdering people like this reporter. you stop associating with them. which is precisely what biden should have done a year ago.
The Saudis used a bonesaw to make kashoggi disappear... the Israelis want to send a message:
We are not acting like the good guys any more.
"We"??
"We" as... From the perspective of the Israelis.
Found dead while making a documentary about the killings in gaza. Of all the rotten luck, eh.
I wonder if there will be an actual transparent independent autopsy or will it be some sort of sham. I mean I dont wonder very much, we all know the answer. But I still wonder a little bit.
Did Lemmy always have it so sites can be embedded?
It is a bug which keeps happening with Almaydeen. No idea why but it is pretty funny.
It might think it's a video embed or something, this seems like a security issue
OD?
Respect aux carolos.
