In perhaps the most surreal news since Hamas entered Israel on October 7th, slaughtering 1,400 people, it was revealed on Wednesday that multiple "photojournalists" accompanied the terrorists as they attacked.

As RedState reported, multiple "photojournalists" who were contracted by outlets like CNN and the Associated Press, posted pictures of themselves riding into Israel with Hamas. In some instances, actual Israeli hostages can be seen. Their presence alone raised a myriad of questions surrounding what these "photojournalists" knew about the timing of the attack. Obviously, they had prior knowledge, otherwise, they wouldn't have known to be there. Instead of reporting what was going to happen to those who could prevent it, they happily participated.

Perhaps more disturbing was the possibility that the U.S. news organizations they were working for knew what was going on. On that front, both the AP and CNN put out statements categorically denying they were told what was going to happen. They also severed ties with the "photojournalists" in question.

To be clear, when I say "participated," that's exactly what looks to have occurred. One picture, uploaded by one of the "photojournalists" to his own Facebook page, shows him actually holding a grenade.

Outrage rightfully ensued after the series of revelations, which led to the next obvious question: What is Israel going to do about it?

Well, if these "photojournalists" thought they had immunity for participating in a terrorist attack, they thought wrong. According to Israeli UN representative and Knesset member Danny Danon, they will be added to the termination list.

Wonder if they were western journalists or journalists that work for Al Jazeera or other outlets in the middle east that sell stories to major news outlets. Regardless, IF western media companies new in advance of the attack, then they are complicit.
I would not want to be on the receiving end of Mossad's efforts.

Any American journalists that participated in this should have their citizenship revoked and have to remain exiled in Gaza for the rest of their lives.

A press credential is not a get out of jail free card if you participate in acts of terrorism.

Journalists do not exists. Only propagandists. But you know that.

If they knew about the raid in advance, why not?

If true, no doubt. Can you imagine if an American journalist was imbedded with the NVA during the Tet offensive? Hope its not true.

So you're saying being a journalist is a license to do whatever evil you want, without repercussion?

Yes….why not?……if journalists decide to ride along in a terror attack they are fair game.

This might be the stupidest post ever posted on here, and that's really saying something

Guys,

Note that these are contract journalists. Literally idiots who answered a CNN want ad in Gaza to contribute content.

I'm as anti-CNN as it gets, but as of this story, there is no evidence that CNN knew or approved. These are locals, think of them almost as volunteer bloggers, that CNN hired because they probably know any western journalist they sent to Gaza would be killed.

The question is whether or not CNN was aware and still used any of this content. That would be extremely disgusting and possibly could result in criminal action against the network if it did so, because Hamas has been recognized by this government as a foreign terrorist organization since the 1990s (under Clinton). Don't get me wrong, CNN is guilty of horrible journalistic malpractice for hiring people without vetting, but that is not the same as knowing these people would do this ahead of time. If it comes out that they did in fact know them, nail them to the wall and put major CNN high-ups on trial for aiding and abetting terrorism.

I have not looked into the circumstances, but did these guys participate or simply observe? The reason journalists / press are given a pass is they are there to observe. That often involves embedding with the "enemy".

If they did anything other than hold a camera or take notes, then they are no longer a journalist and should be treated as an enemy combatant.

---

I get what you're saying, but we wouldn't excuse a journalist who knew of a mass shooting in advance and was there to take pics of it. They can't argue that they were duped and were led to believe Hamas was going to attack soldiers instead of women and children. They are just as guilty as Hamas.

Are they rather propagandists that happen to provide media content to journalism organizations?

Would you consider publicity agents or press secretaries to be journalists?

30 Americans were killed in the attack. That gives us a particular interest in this legal distinction as well. That definitely makes it either a crime or act of war/terrorism from our perspective and if someone knew about it ahead of time and was present for it, that means they might be considered a participant from our perspective.

You may be correct on what they knew. And knowing about a potential crime in the US is a bit different than knowing of a potential military action in a conflicted territory.

Yes, I understand Hamas are terrorists, but not everyone in the world sees it the same way.

I am not asking for the journalist not to be held to account, but there are exceptions in what is generally accepted regarding war time journalist embedding with all sides.

---

I don't want to get into semantics but calling Oct 7th a military action is a stretch. It was mass torture, rape and murder of non-combatants.

Exceptions ???. This was not war time. This is not something that is "generally accepted." This was a murderous terrorist attack, period. Not even close to the same thing. If they knew in advance, they were complicit. They deserve whatever comes their way.

Do you have any firm beliefs on anything? Or is the whole world kind of a moral gray area?

"Medics" at antifa protests try to claim the same immunity.

So the AP and CNN will terminate them, and then the Israelis will terminate them?

Hamas is a terrorist organization and they don't carry out military action. They conduct terror acts indiscriminantly against civilian population.
