How are people not outraged?
Have you heard of Shireen Abu Akhla?
Shireen Abu-Akla was an American citizen and she was the top journalist on Al Jazeera.
So, again, American citizen.
She goes to Israel and she's covering the fighting between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
I think it was in the West Bank.
Yeah, in the West Bank.
So she's wearing a bulletproof vest that says press and she's wearing a helmet that says press.
And she's taking cover behind a tree and an Israeli sniper shot her in the face and killed her.
Killed her instantly.
So her funeral is held a couple days later in a Greek Orthodox church in the West Bank.
The IDF raids the church.
beats the pallbearers and they drop the coffin.
One of my best friends is an IDF Special Forces veteran.
