Stench of Israeli Crimes Engulfs Debate of Journalists
“The level of killing of journalists during this year has increased and reached high levels in comparison to previous years” said Mr. Mills from IPI at the opening session
Mr Berger from UNESCO said in his remark that training journalists how to work in the area of the conflict, imposing laws, investigating the murders … could help decrease the number of murders against journalists, saying that everyone should bring his contribution to the table so that we can go ahead in taking measures and dealing with this problem.
I explained to the colleagues that the murder of the last three journalists in Gaza was not the first crime of israel but that Israel commits crimes against Palestinian journalists on a daily basis since decades, restricting their free movement, jailing and targeting them, breaking their cameras, destroying equipment and facilities, censoring their work and so on. These crimes must be ended and the international organization must see it as part of their duties to end this horror. Israel is not above the law and should be questioned about its violations and crimes against journalists.I further explained to the colleagues that I had been a target of Israel ONLY because I had been reporting about the human stories and crimes which of israeli soldiers checkpoints against sick people suffering cancer, kidney problems, against pregnant women … and that because of my work only I had been forced to flee my homeland after receiving direct threats from israel. As for the current situation, Marc Regev may be a pathological case but the fact is that Palestinian journalists are targets to the israelis. I asked the UNESCO representative what active measures was his organization going to adopt in order to stop the crimes of israel and also begged the colleagues from the audience to expose the israeli crimes without hesitation or fear from their threats. The israeli crimes must remain in the focus of the media.
