To prepare his report on the Israeli bases hit by Iran, Loffredo, an independent journalist based in New York City, traveled to the Israeli-occupied territories and documented several impact sites that had not been reported by Israeli authorities, including areas near the Mossad headquarters in Tel Aviv.

So now they can just kidnap one of our citizens? All the deaths of UN and USA citizens were “accidental.” How are they going to try to spin this? And how will Biden get Bibi’s cock out of his mouth to lie about it to the public? Pathetic.

I mean... If he was able to inspect damage in Tel Aviv, he wasn't only in the occupied territories, as that is pretty undisputed. And since the information where missiles actually hit is confidential (as public as it is to anyone actually being there), he committed a crime by reporting it. And for that, he was jailed. Which isn't exactly kidnapping since he was already there.

I mean... I don't think my (or anyone else's) taxes should go to a country who arrest people who report the factual news.
