The Assassination of Shireen Abu Akleh: Who Gave the Order?
Israel: It is highly unlikely that the killing of journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was the decision of a lone soldier or a commander.www.mintpressnews.com
There had to have been an order or, at the minimum, approval given by the highest levels of the Israeli defense apparatus, as high as the minister of defense or even the prime minister, before the sniper could execute this assassination.

'Israel killed 46 Palestinian journalists since 2000'
The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate said on Wednesday that Israel has killed more than 46 Palestinian journalists since the outbreak of the Al-Aqsa Intifada in 2000.
"The Syndicate counts annually between 500 and 700 [Israeli] occupation attacks and crimes against Palestinian journalists and it's time for these crimes to stop and to hold accountable those who committed them and those who issued the orders," al-Astal said.
He stressed that the Israeli violations against journalists "aim to silence and prevent the factual press image from being conveyed to the world."
Israel has a long history of targeting journalists. The New York-based Committee to Protect Journalists have documented 17 confirmed instances of journalists killed in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory since 1992. Of these, 15 journalists have been killed by Israeli fire.
The year 2014, when Israel carried out its last major onslaught against the blockaded Gaza and killed over 2,200 Palestinians, was the bloodiest year for journalists in Palestine.

A Turkish anti Israel site "saying" that Israel is guilty.Israel was super quick laying the blame on the Palestinians and claiming it could not be Israel . Something which was quickly proven wrong...but her past behaviour tells a story of its own

Israel has long history of targeting journalists, says Palestinian syndicate - Anadolu Ajansı
No it was the Palestinians who determined it was an Israeli. Are you forgetting there was a witness who was injured but not killed. He knew where they were and could see that it was a deliberate act to stop them filming. Now it is going to the ICC. Not everyone goes by your Kangaroo courts.A Turkish anti Israel site "saying" that Israel is guilty.
What is the proof the author of this article has? None.
Case closed.
You are accusing Israel of killing those journalists. And on purpose. Without any evidence.No it was the Palestinians who determined it was an Israeli. Are you forgetting there was a witness who was injured but not killed. He knew where they were and could see that it was a deliberate act to stop them filming. Now it is going to the ICC. Not everyone goes by your Kangaroo courts.
The article you failed to read mentioned that Israel has killed 46 journalists since 2000. For any country this would be unacceptable for a tiny country like Israel it is unbelievable. No country could possible need to kill so many journalists.

I did not accuse Israel of killing the journalists. I supplied an article saying that. I did search for it because I have followed Israel and the Palestinians long enough to know that journalists are far too often shot. I don't really think it is accurate to call it a war zone.You are accusing Israel of killing those journalists. And on purpose. Without any evidence.
Journalists die in war zones all the time.

Are you going to allow the evidence to determine the cause? Already prosecuted, judge, jury and executioner when it comes to this case.
Ask the PA to show the bullet which killed her to Israel.
They have refused to do so.
Palestine Wonât Let Israel Evaluate Bullet That Killed Journalist As International Leaders Condemn Killing
The Palestinian National Authority said it would complete its own investigation into Shireen Abu Akleh’s death during an Israeli raid in the West Bank city of Jenin on Wednesday.
The Palestinian forensic man said that they were not certain as to who killed her.
But you are very sure. Very sure.
Forensic official: Unclear whether Israeli or Palestinian forces killed journalist
Medical officials claim it is impossible to determine if Israeli or Palestinian forces are to blame for killing an Al Jazeera reporter. Shireen Abu Akleh, 51, was reporting on a raid by Israeli forces in the city of Jenin when she was killed. While Al Jazeera claims she was murdered by soldiers...
Stay sure.
The Palestinians are always "taking" or wanting to take something against Israel to the ICC. It means nothing.I did not accuse Israel of killing the journalists. I supplied an article saying that. I did search for it because I have followed Israel and the Palestinians long enough to know that journalists are far too often shot. I don't really think it is accurate to call it a war zone.
The information I heard on the news last night was that the Palestinians were taking it to the ICC. On the same program they said they did not believe it was not a Palestinian. I also reminded you of the information I have already given I think to you but defo on this thread that there was another journalist there who was also shot but not killed. He, not me, said the killing was deliberate to stop them filming. The ICC will deal with the evidence. They will deal with the bullet. The Palestinians do not trust Israel to be honest about the bullet. You seem over the top emotional about things.
It does mean something when the International Criminal court has charges against you regardless of who you are.The Palestinians are always "taking" or wanting to take something against Israel to the ICC. It means nothing.
They would have to show the bullet which killed the journalist, which they have refused to show Israel. They will not do that. The mystery of it pays much more than the evidence.
Emotional what????
You did not do the proper research about the other journalist. That was her producer.
My question is how reliable is that Producer not to be anti Israel and simply accuse Israel without any evidence as to whose bullets actually hit them.
There are no charges at all right now. And the PA may not move ahead with it.It does mean something when the International Criminal court has charges against you regardless of who you are.
There is generally more than one way to skin a cat. I have noticed Israels lie telling on several occasions so I would not trust her to tell the truth over this either.
No, I just reported what Al Jazeera said. AJ was her employer and that of the journalist who was shot and survived and reported seeing the people who shot them and he believed it was deliberate to stop them filming. Can you show me where it says that who I thought was a journalist was in fact her producer. You don't believe if the person is responsible that the right thing to do is to report what you have seen - or is that for you only if it is an Israeli.
[A]n investigation by CNN offers new evidence — including two videos of the scene of the shooting — that there was no active combat, nor any Palestinian militants, near Abu Akleh in the moments leading up to her death.
