Not only did Israel systematically hunt down and kill almost every journalist in Gaza, they murdered more than 700 of their family members also.
This slaughter went on while many of the world's most prominent journalists stayed quiet. It is an eternal stain on our profession.
Israeli forces are targeting journalists’ families in a war to silence Palestinian reporting. At least 706 family members have been killed, according to the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate aje.io/pkapjm

I am the son of a vicar.
I was raised in the church.
I have spent 55 years wrestling with my faith.
And this leaves me cold.

So called muscular Christianity is just white fascism masquerading as religion.
