I presume there is something that happened recently I have missed, or is this just a random expression of general orchestral hatred?

They canceled the performance of a guy who dedicated it to murdered journalists in Gaza.

Does that include the "journalist" who was a member of the Nukhba force who participated in Oct 7 rapes, tortures and burning of children alive?

"The IDF confirms carrying out a strike in Gaza City yesterday that killed Al Jazeera reporter Ismail Alghoul, saying he was a member of Hamasโ€™s elite Nukhba force who participated in the October 7 onslaught".

@Seagoon_
How about the other journalist who was also killed in the strike? Were they accused by the IOF of being a terrorist and therefore deserving of summary extra-judicial assassination? Is that how it goes?

How about the child?

If anything this strike is notable because the number of bystanders killed was uncharacteristically low.
