Israel Murdered 65 Journalists in 45 Days!

Israel deliberately murdered 65 journalists in the past 45 days in the besieged Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and southern Lebanon, in addition to destroying the offices of all media channels in Gaza and blocking several news channels in the West Bank that should be out of its jurisdiction based on the Oslo Accords it signed.

Massacring children and women, destroying entire neighborhoods, bombing hospitals, invading hospitals and hoisting the occupation flag on top of them, and bombing refugee camps are all war crimes and crimes against humanity, no matter what justification the culprits give, murdering journalists in broad daylight to cover up those crimes just adds insult to the injury of the world's conscious.

Since its heinous war on the besieged Gaza Strip, which it completely besieged since 2005, Israel has deliberately murdered 65 designated reporters, journalist cameramen, and in some cases, their entire families, and it's not picky in the nationalities of its victims or the organizations they work for, one of them worked for Reuters and the other from Al Jazeera, both very sympathetic to Israel.

The latest war crime of Israel against journalism was the drone bombing and murder of the Lebanese Reporter Farah Omar, and cameraman Rabih Al Memari from the Al Mayadeen news channel in southern Lebanon yesterday immediately after finishing their morning live broadcasting from the frontline on the Lebanese side of the border.

Farah Omar and her colleague were positioned in the same spot used by the media channel for the past 45 days, in an open field, next to their broadcasting vehicle marked with press, they were wearing vests and helmets with Press clearly printed on them, and they were airing live, the drone that bombed them cannot mistake them by even a 0.1% of error, it was a deliberate murder.

Killing journalists, let alone civilians who pose no threat and are not armed is a war crime, no ambiguity in this.

Murdering 65 journalists in 1.5 months is despicable, Israel's hyped army is so shamed they had to cover up their losses and humiliating defeat and cover up their war crimes by targeting journalists.

What's even more despicable is the world's silence to these crimes, especially the Western mainstream media and the Western leaders who just a few years ago rushed to march in Paris in solidarity with the blasphemist cartoonist outlet Charlie Hebdo after it was attacked; the message cannot be clearer on who and what they support and who and what they target, and it's widely heard across the globe.

Turkey's Genocidal Water War against Syria and Iraq

Water wars are war crimes and crimes against humanity in all of its dimensions, it amounts to genocide as well, that's exactly what the Turks are doing against their neighbors and that's what they inherited from their Ottoman ancestors.

The Euphrates originates from Turkey and ends in the Persian Gulf going through both Syria and Iraq, the Tigris originates in Turkey and meets the Euphrates in Iraq while passing just at the northeastern joint borders with Syria. These are called shared rivers in international law and shared rivers have to be shared by the respective countries by moral standards before by the power of law.

In addition, there are treaties signed to distribute the water of these two lifeline rivers, the very existence of more than 40 million people in Syria and Iraq depend directly on the flow of these two rivers, the case that was since the first humans in these regions thousands of years ago until the current day Turkey was established.

Turkey, however, and especially after the anti-Islamic cult led by Madman Erdogan reached power, has a different view, they want to control and sell the water like how others sell the oil that appears in their land.

Husni Mahali, Turkish career journalist and former friend of Erdogan before the latter imprisoned him for criticizing the Turkish support of Al Qaeda terrorists in Syria and the Erdogan's breaching the articles of the Adana Accord signed in 1998 between the neighboring countries, explains the policies of the regime of Erdogan and his post-Ottoman Turkey to use the water as weapons against the southern neighboring countries of Turkey in this post: After Idlib and the Kurds… What about the Euphrates and the Tigris?
