The title of the article;
Young Palestinian creator who shared glimpses of daily life during war dies
Within the news article;
Medo Halimy, 19, died after he was hit by shrapnel during an Israeli airstrike on Gaza’s southern city of Khan Younis on Monday, several of his friends told NBC News.
He was murdered, they should change the title to;
Young Palestinian creator who shared glimpses of daily life during war murdered by Israeli airstrike
Even the most passive, neutral reporter in the world in any other case could/would say
“Young Palestinian creator who shared glimpses of daily life during war killed by Israeli airstrike.”
That is just 100% fact without a shadow of any doubt at all. The airstrike created the shrapnel that killed him, launched by Israel.
Wonder what he died of? Weird that the headline phrasing is so vague and passive.
if you click on the link it’s actually a whole article
…and that still doesn’t change the fact that the headline is using passive language to lessen the impact of this boy’s death. You see this shit with police killings too; they say someone, “Died in police custody,” rather than, “Killed during a violent arrest.” Betty White died, this kid was killed in an air strike.
mb I didn’t get that you were trying to convey that
I love how Americans kill half my people, refuse to even acknowledge it. Suddenly they’re on to the next news story and morally grand standing and patting their own backs, while calling everyone else murderers
Maybe, just maybe, the Americans who support Palestinians aren’t the same Americans who are support our genocidal military industrial complex.
70% of Americans want an immediate ceasefire. 75% Americans are opposed to any increases in military spending (56% want a decrease: https://afsc.org/news/most-us-adults-support-pentagon-spending-cuts). So please understand that the US government is a plutocracy that doesn’t represent the will of the American people anymore than Putin represents the majority of Russians.
Americans are not a hive mind. The ones who mourn his loss are not the ones in power happily sending aid to Israel. Just like not every Palestinian participated in Oct 7.

Wish there was a way to link to the modlog every time someone’s like “nO oNe oN lEmMy SuPpOrTs GeNoCiDe.”
Tell me you don’t know the first thing about the Palestinian situatuon without telling me you don’t know the first thing about the Palestinian situation.
Removed for misinformation bad enough to be overt racism.
The misinformation is the statement of Americans killing half his people. It’s misinformation and bad enough to be overt racism as well. Because the numbers from his own government don’t even nearly represent a fraction of half his people.
It’s funny too because Americans don’t kill Palestinians. We send them the most aid and supplies than any other country. Israelites kill Palestinians not Americans. But that’s not misinformation to you.
Without western money your society will have collapsed a long while ago.
Spoken like a typical dumb American. The world has seen more prosperity and wealth before the west plundered it all.
dies
They are really laying it on thick with the passive voice.
The CBC and BBC got it right.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/israel-hamas-airstrike-medo-halimy-1.7308918
BBC says “alleged airstrike”. For anyone questioning how media is helping “washing” the genocide.
It goes like this:
- use passive language as much as you can when you dont like what happen
- use suggestive language to blame hamas
- mention how it all started in october 7
- mention 1200 killed by hamas ignoring “idf” Hannibal directive.
- mention number of people in Gaza reported earlier this year, make sure to say hamas runs the health ministry who reported this number.
- dont mention starving children, lack of food, water, and vaccine.
- dont mention any “idf” act of genocide like killing their own hostage waving a white flag or the international court genocide case.
- pretend that you have nothing to do with it
- make sure to include “idf” statement or that they are doing an investigation.
“dies”
Dammit fuck, was he on chemo and didn’t tell no one? Oh man… or please don’t tell me OD’d?
He just died while vlogging about surviving being trapped under daily genocidal indiscrimenant bombing for almost an entire year.That just happens sometimes.
