‘If I die, I want a loud death’: Gaza photojournalist killed by Israeli airstrike
‘If I die, I want a loud death’: Gaza photojournalist killed by Israeli airstrike
I just spent an hour going through her instagram and reading her comments. There's a lot of death, yes, but also a lot of life. It would be so hard to see the good amongst what's going on over there. She was very talented and it's sad that she won't get to see her work in Cannes - at least she knew before the end.
One of the posts was about someone who lost 12 family members in a missile strike. Eerie concidence.... or maybe that kind of story is more common than we could possibly know.
The photos and videos taken before this latest shitstorm were photos just like any other average person. Someone skateboarding, kids playing, photos of buildings in the light... watching the transformation as I scrolled back up towards the top was heartbreaking.
I hope I live to see that fascist state smashed and dismantled.
I would bet my annual salary that Israeli will never face any consequences for this mess
I'd love to make a history joke about them getting to learn a new lesson every few centuries, but that mere joke itself might legitimize their absolute bullshit claims on the land. Israel was formed in 1948 because of a bunch of segregationist assholes who wanted to fuck with brown people and Russians.
It may take 200 years, but it will happen. Not only because every empire falls, but also because you can't just get away with bullying your neighbors forever. Someday the wind will turn
You can't kill an idea. They will, even if indirectly.
I fucking hate israel. Jews are cool they can hang out. Because most cool Jews also hate Israel.
Out of curiosity, do you have a source for the belief that most Jews hate Israel? Not disputing it necessarily, just curious where you get that impression from.
A quick search pulled up this study about American Jews that seems to show that even the most sympathetic age demographics display 50% or more approval for how Israel has handled the conflict. If you’ve got different numbers about Jews worldwide, I’d be interested to see them:
This cool Jew hates Israel. Hope that helps 😉
There are no cool Jews that like Israel. Because that would make you un-cool.
Note that I said 'most cool Jews'. I've met a number of outspoken expats that have flavored my perception, and there's a broad swath that oppose the country's actions but you're right, there's a metric fuckton of uncool Jews out there.
Slightly more than 50% of all people are at least somewhat uncool, in my estimation, and that of course includes Jews, so thanks for confirming that!

Ah today's batch of fresh horrors has arrived.
Fucking hell. The courage of this person. That poem at the end nearly broke me.
If you didn't scream "WITNESS ME!" before death, was it actually loud?
Well, I bet it was loud!
Sorry, I had to... don't ban me
You suck.
The world is so much worse without her.
But hell yeah, sister, she set an achievable goal!
They certainly got what they asked for.
Be careful what you wish for 'cause you just might get it.
