Israeli Minister: We Will Hunt Down *ALL* Participants in the 10/7 Atrocities, Including the Fake "Journalists" That Played PR Agent for Hamas

Danny Danon @dannydanon

Yesterday a major report was published on the independent news site "Honest Reporting" which revealed a shocking fact.

Photographers employed by some of the largest and most prominent global media organizations, including AP and Reuters, took an active part in the massacre of Israel's Southern communities on October 7.

Some of them arrived together with the terrorists on motorcycles. Some even carried weapons for the terrorists.

While Hamas savages murdered, raped, tortured and brutally abused our people, the vile photographers did not stop, turn away or leave the scene. Instead they filmed and participated in the crimes.

We will hunt them down together with the terrorists.

(In the photograph: A "photojournalist" on his way to Israel holding a grenade.

Note the man holding a grenade in that picture -- he's one of the "journalists."

Unbelievably, the "libertarian" Megan McArdle -- last seen arguing that her frenz who were caught justifying terrorism should not face any professional consequences at all -- now says that Israel must not hunt down "journalists" who collaborated in the terror attack.

Megan McArdle @asymmetricinfo

I understand Israel's anger, but it is morally wrong and a political mistake to target journalists who rushed to cover a story. Possibly some of them are complicit, I don't know. But Israel should give them the benefit of the doubt.

they're not journalists

No, they're combatants. Medics for the military do not carry weapons for this very reason -- if you're holding a weapon, you're a combatant.

But Megan the Genius thinks there should be different rules for "journalists."

Megan McArdle @asymmetricinfo · We have no idea whether they were told of the attack in advance, whether they simply rushed to cover the breakthrough and followed fighters through, or whether they had any opportunity to prevent the crimes.

One of them was holding a grenade Megan

Megan McArdle @asymmetricinfo

If a Hamas fighter who was giving me a ride on his operation handed me a grenade, I might not risk his anger by handing it back.

He doesn't look afraid. He looks triumphant.

Noam Blum @neontaster

This really sounds like starting with a conclusion ("he was a journalist") and then finding justifications for any evidence to the contrary.

Megan McArdle @asymmetricinfo

I'm just saying, investigate. If the guy participated in the attack, try him. Don't assume you know what happened.

Holy s*** Megan

This is the same woman who told us all, after the nightmare of Obamacare was implemented, that she and all of her policy analysts friends knew that the central claim made on behalf of Obamacare -- that it would reduce prices -- was an obvious lie -- but they kept it secret, because, well, they all supported Obama, and didn't want to hurt his chances.

But trust the "experts," y'all!

And also -- don't do your own research! The "experts" will tell you all there is to know about a topic!

Except for those things they withhold so that they can win elections, of course.

But otherwise -- they'll tell you everything, Dummies! Just accept what we say and do what we order you to do!

The other thing that is repulsive here is a demand that her fucking privileged professional claque be essentially beyond the law.

We keep hearing this. When two lawyers were photographed throwing a molotov cocktail into a cop car during the "fiery but mostly peaceful protests," there was a huge cry about damaging these poor dears' careers -- funny, no one worries about sending laborers to prison and putting their families into destitution.

But when a member of the professional (and fake professional) classes is threatened with jail, oh boy. Suddenly judges must take into account the damage it will have on their precious careers!

This is kind of classism -- identity-politics tribalism -- that is so virulent it is hardly any different from simple racism.
