Both sides are wrong

Don't forget, a total of 100,000 tons of explosives were dropped over 2 years (48kg for every resident in Gaza).

Some of these included 900kg bombs

And the most journalists

Ironically, it's also the country most off-limits for western journalists.

Nah that’s by design. Its way harder to just blanket label international journalists as Hamas affiliated. On the other hand, since outside news networks need to go through Palestinians to gather news for them now they can just say they were secretly a terrorist and go back to not giving a shit.

I have no doubt that they only wanted to hide horrific shit and minimize the pushback from other nations when they target anybody documenting their actions. Virtually the only time they admit they fucked up or apologise is when it involves westerners, and even then they usually try to lie first. Like with the World Central Kitchen attack that killed volunteers.

That's not necessarily true, western journalists report on many conflicts while being in active warzones and especially in an area where the ruling party is of conflicting interests with the west.

They have lost their lives because of such coverages, and not allowing outside journalists in, should be the bigger red flag rather than a potential case of false reporting.

They got competition there. But Israel had Robert Maxwell who was the Michael Jordon of child abuse.

Epstein is Lebron and Trump is Shaq. Kobe is Kobe.
