    Has anyone ever compared Israel’s kill rate when it comes to journalists compared to Hamas? I think they have a higher ratio for the former.

      Israel was responsible for something like 80% of fatalities among journalists last year, worldwide. So yes, easily

      Hamas doesn’t really make a habit of killing journalists. I mean they probably have one or two kills, but personally I haven’t heard of it. On the other hand Israel is… yeah.

        You’re reading that wrong, it’s not comparing Hamas to Israel, it’s comparing Hamas death to journalist deaths. As in which one does Israel have the better ratio on.
