    You made the claim that I am assuming something. Do you stand by that claim, or do you retract it because you now realise that you have precisely ZERO evidence?

    Irrelevant. You made a claim. Now stand by it or retract.

    What claim was that ? I assume nothing ... surely you must be in error.

    I've never said what Mossad does, only what Mossad is. You can easily find this information on the web, by the way.

    Mansour was not a journalist, and Wiki is not a reliable source. Next.

    Prove that all the journalists killed while covering the Israeli-Palestinian conflict had been assassinated by a state institution.

    Answer my question about all journalists killed in conflict zones around the world. Do you think they had been assassinated by state institutions?

    Certainly isn't when looking up Israeli atrocities given that people all over the world are employed by Israel to spread the propaganda of Israel being compassionate and caring towards the Palestinians. Otherwise Wiki is a very reliable source on most topics

    Another joke of a post .. you were the one pretending Mossad would not do such things .. "Name the Organization" you cried .. Mossad is such and such .. I then said IDF - what matters the name the Israeli Org doing the killing -- . turns out both doing the dirty deeds .. deflection on your part .. can't focus on the reality that dey targeting journalists .. 19 by your own count.. dead.

    Who said Mansour was a journalist .. Not me .. just right out to left field .. no ability to comprehend what was presented to you mate ?

    What was Mansour doing when the hellfire missiles came ? come on now .. tell us .. what was the "bad guy" - who wasn't a Journalist was doing .. when the missiles came :)

    The pro Islamo Jihado Arabos love that the headlines in this forum are trying to slam the State of Israel.
    The IFJ ( International Federation of Journalists ) says that more than a houndred journalists are killed each year in "action".
    Nobody writes about them !
    But when it's Palestinian, the media is on fire !! Bravo to the Palestinian Hasbara :applause:

    Of course a question can contain an assumption . especially when the question is more of an assertion - . back to school for you

    "So you're assuming that this happened for no reason?" - is an assumption .. an assumption that turned out to be false.

    Whish is why I said - "Terrorists always have a reason for what they do " to which you made another nonsensically false assumption - given I just told you the opposite .. .
    what part of "Terrorists always have a reason" ... did you not understand mate ?

    "Always have a Reason" somehow got transformed in your brain into "No Reason"

    Got some kind of dyslexic thing going on dude .. take what other say and turn them upside down backwards.

    You totally missed where I elaborated with asking if you're assuming that this happened for no "GOOD reason." THAT was my follow up. You just repeated my initial post.

    It's VERY simple. I followed up with including the word "GOOD" in the otherwise repeated question.

    I assume that you mean the IDF attack on the funeral.

    No reason was mentioned either in the article I posted or other articles covering the same event.

    I spent 10 - 11 months walking and hitch-hiking around the Middle East and have followed events in that region ever since the deliberate Israeli attack on America's USS Liberty.

    Anyone having even a cursory knowledge of the dynamics of the conflict recognizes that Israel's M.O. has always been to do something to provoke Palestine's native residents so that can use their superior, US funded weaponry for a murderous, disproportionate response.

    This same Israeli "provoke-then-massacre" strategy has been used since the time of Moshe Dayan for the purpose of ethnic cleansing, land theft, home demolition and similar Zionist crimes:

    "Moshe Dayan, in his diaries said: "Our strategy was always to provoke the Arabs and get an appropriate response so we could attack and smash them."

    I'm open to the idea that Israel has been engaged in unreasonable provocation, but it's the Palestinians' choice to respond to the provocations. Agree?

    I would say that most of the Western MSM is biased in favor of Israel as much in what they omit as what they report.

    For example, you're not likely to hear CNN report that Israel has killed more than 50 Palestinian journalists since 2001.

    Thanks for asking,



    "The killing of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, explained"
    https://www.vox.com/2022/5/11/23067365/shireen-abu-akleh-palestinian-journalist-killed-israel

    EXCERPT "Israel has killed more than 50 Palestinian journalists since 2001, according to the Palestinian Journalism Syndicate, and Reporters Without Borders has recorded more than 144 journalists injured in just the last four years. “In terms of the event itself, unfortunately, it is not unique, not different,” says Saleh Hijazi, the deputy director of Amnesty International’s Middle East program. “It fits a pattern, a pattern of unlawful killing, and also a pattern of targeting journalists and human rights defenders.”CONTINUED
