it's weird that western journalists aren't freaking out about the IOF, to all appearances, targeting journalists and their families
I mean western journalists are mostly scum but I expected a little solidarity
After how quickly they shut up about Khashoggi?
I mean... everyone but the general public knew he was CIA and remembered who his uncle was. The general public was outraged but the US government and major media outlets didn't make too much of a fuss because it would have resulted in public discussion about what he actually did for a living. Being a Washington Post "journalist" (wrote a few OpEd pieces, not a journalist) was an extremely half assed cover story. Even his own family didn't really have shit to say because they knew what was up. Only person who seemed genuinely confused was his fiance/girlfriend in the US.
Would have been like people getting upset over Jeffery Epstein or Gislane Maxwell getting offed by a government before everyone knew about the Epstein stuff.
Honestly this is news to me
