This is a new and interesting journalistic approach to achieving the same objective that this man’s allies and colleagues such as Christiane Amanpour, Bob Smietana, Niraj Warikoo, Kari Huus, Lisa Wangsness, Anne Barnard and others have been working toward for years. This fellow is just more up-front about it.
“Terrorist Disguised as Journalist Stabs IDF Soldier,” Arutz Sheva, October 16, 2015:
A terrorist wearing the yellow garb of a photojournalist stabbed an IDF soldier on Friday, at the Hazayit checkpoint near Hevron.
According to initial reports, the terrorist – who wore a yellow vest with “PRESS” written on it and who carried photography equipment – loitered near the checkpoint, with Hamas’s Al Quds television station broadcasting live.
The Deputy Commander of the IDF’s Judea-Samaria Brigade, and the Battalion Commander of the Tsabar Battalion of Givati, were touring the area and scanning for terror activity there following Hamas’s declaration of a “Day of Rage,” Yediot Aharonot reports.
When the two left their vehicle, the terrorist pulled out a knife, dropped his props, and ran for a soldier who was part of the two commanders’ entourage, stabbing him.
The terrorist was shot dead immediately by a senior officer at the site.
The soldier, a 20 year-old man, was evacuated for medical treatment to Shaarei Tzedek hospital in Jerusalem by Magen David Adom (MDA) medics at the scene, and is reportedly in moderate condition.
He has been admitted to the trauma ward and is suffering from deep stab wounds to the upper back and hand and is fully conscious….
Katowice says
The brave IDF soldier is fully conscious, but not too many in the West are.
As well, Islamic jihadists disguised as journalists isn’t exactly a new trend, although I doubt anyone at CNN will be going kinetic soon.

A good piece of ammunition for the media and academic propaganda:
Islamophobia: Thought Crime of the Totalitarian Future by David Horowitz and Robert Spencer (Booklet)
Wave of Palestinian Violence Accompanied by Spate of Bad Writing 10-14-15 CAMERA–Some correspondents and headline writers are doing a fine job reporting on the outbreak of terror in Israel, but all too many others are failing at this task. Journalists in the latter category have relied on the passive voice, euphemism, and imprecision — reportorial smoke and mirrors — to obscure Palestinian terror attacks and even recast terrorists as victims of arbitrary Israeli violence.

What explains the absence of investigative reporting into Hamas crimes in the Western media? Part of the answer seems to be fear.

Thank you to the people of Russia!

An excerpt:
I got to admit – I didn’t even know this memorial existed. However, it took me two seconds to realise why – it received zero publicity. Now why do you suppose that? Why hasn’t the media expressed their gratitude? Name me another country that’s done more?
About 50 million people visit New York every year & more than 8 million live there but no one seems to have heard of The Teardrop…. yet it’s a 100ft tall, 175-ton memorial to those who died on the city’s blackest day.

40 questions for the international media in Gaza
Saul O, July 31st 2014
http://hurryupharry.org/2014/07/31/40-questions-for-the-international-media-in-gaza/
1. Have you or any of your colleagues been intimidated by Hamas?
2. Do you feel restricted in your ability to ‘say what you see’ in Gaza?
3. How do you feel about the Spanish journalist who said Hamas would kill any journalist if they filmed rocket fire?
4. Has Hamas pressured you to delete anything you have published?
5. Has Hamas ever threatened to take your phone, laptop or camera?
6. Has Hamas ever taken the phone, laptop or camera of a colleague in Gaza?
7. Have you seen Hamas fighters in Gaza?
8. If yes, why have you not directly reported Hamas fighting activity when you are eye-witnesses in Gaza, but rather indirectly reported about what the IDF says Hamas has done?
9. Are you scared to publish photos of Hamas operatives on your Twitter page, or broadcast images of Hamas fighting and aggression on your news channel?
10. Have you published any photos of terrorists launching rockets in Gaza? If so, are these images being turned down by your newspaper or broadcaster?
11. Have you thought of interviewing the traumatised residents of southern Israel?
12. When Israeli authorities say that most of the dead in Gaza are terrorists, and Hamas says most of the dead in Gaza are civilians, how do you differentiate?
13. When Hamas Health Ministry statistics contradict Hamas’ own propaganda and reveal that mostly men of fighting age have died so far in Gaza, does it give you pause for thought?
14. Is an underage armed terrorist still counted as a terrorist or a child when killed? Or both? Do you explain to your readers how this is possible?
15. Have you put to Hamas spokespersons that firing rockets from civilian areas in a war situation will draw return fire and lead to the death of civilians?
16. Nick Casey of the Wall Street Journal tweeted: “you have to wonder with the shelling, how patients at Shifa hospital feel as Hamas uses it as a safe place to see media.” Never mind wondering; did you ask any patients how they feel?
17. And how do you feel about the fact that Casey subsequently deleted his tweet?
18. Russia Today journalist Harry Fear mentioned rocket-launching sites near his hotel. Have you noticed any terrorists or terror bases near your hotel?
19. How do you feel about Fear’s expulsion from Gaza, for tweeting about the rocket launches from civilian areas? Are you worried that you might also be expelled from Gaza?
20. Did you see any Hamas terror personnel inside Al-Shifa hospital?
21. Have you interviewed a Hamas spokesperson inside Al-Shifa?
22. Have you seen any rocket-launching sites in or around the vicinity of a hospital?
23. Have you interviewed hospital staff or patients as to how they feel about their buildings being used for terror activity?
24. Hamas’ command and control bunker is underneath Al Shifa hospital. Is this worth reporting? Have you asked to gain access to it, so you can interview Hamas commanders?
25. French newspaper Liberation reported that Hamas’ Al Qassam offices are next to the emergency room at Shifa hospital, before deleting the article. Was the reporter right to delete the article, and will the information appear in the media at some point still?
26. When the missile hit Al-Shati hospital where children were killed, did you see Hamas operatives collecting the debris of the fallen Palestinian rocket, as Gabriel Barbati reported? Did Barbati pick up on something you missed?
27. Barbati prefaced his tweet by writing “Out of Gaza, far from Hamas retaliation.” Will you also report differently about Gaza when you are out of Gaza, far from Hamas retaliation?
28. Can live journalism by reporters who are scared of retaliation from the authorities they are reporting about really count as pure journalism, or is journalism in that context fundamentally compromised?
29. Have you seen or heard evidence of Hamas using civilians as human shields, by forcing or “encouraging” them to stay inside or enter into a building that has received a knock on the roof?
30. Have you seen or heard evidence of Hamas storing weapons inside schools, houses, flats, mosques or hospitals?
31. Have you interviewed Gazan residents to find out if they have – or know someone who has – a tunnel dug underneath their house? How do they feel about this?
32. Have you tried to interview any of the parents of the 160 Palestinian children who died building the terror tunnels?
33. Have you asked Hamas spokespersons why they are setting out to murder children by firing rockets towards civilian populations?
34. Have you interviewed any UNRWA officials about why Hamas are storing weapons in their schools, and how the weapons got there?
35. Are you currently investigating how Hamas rockets ended up in UNRWA schools?
36. Are you currently investigating why UNRWA returned rockets to Hamas and their police force?
37. When Hamas breaks a ceasefire with Israel – as it has done 6 times – how easy is it to report on this from Gaza?
38. Is there any anti-Hamas sentiment in Gaza, and how is it expressed?
39. Were you aware that Hamas chose to execute dozens of anti-war protesters in Gaza, and did you not consider this to be worth
reporting?
40. Is international media reporting from Gaza free from pressure and intimidation, or is there a real problem – and if so, how will you address it?

‘Hard-hitting journalism’?? No! Taqiyya…normative Islam…misrepresentation! Allah is the ‘greatest deceiver’.
Deception is the normative strategy of Islam which makes it virtually impossible for dirty kafirs to trust Muslims or for Muslims to trust one another or for Muslim women to trust their husbands who are permitted to lie to them under Sharia law.
fidobite says
Which reminds me of a muslim I used to work with. This man (and I use that term loosely) had a small farm and it was generally known by his fellow employees that he, uh, was known to abuse his goats from time to time. I thought to myself how awful this was and how unfair to his wife…until I saw his wife.
Jay Boo says
“Deception is the normative strategy of Islam”
Exactly true,
Muslims follow MO’s disgrace.
Linde Barrera says
Thank God the IDF soldier is alive. May he be physically and spiritually healed in a short time. Thank God for the senior officer with the gun.
RonaldB says
Hi Linda,
Do you know there is extremely strict gun control in Israel? Gun licenses are tightly controlled, licenses to carry are extremely limited, the storage of guns in homes is strictly regulated, and the sale of ammunition is tightly limited.
http://www.jpost.com/National-News/Israeli-gun-control-regulations-opposite-of-US
The upside of this, although I don’t agree with this type of gun control, is that there is massive use of licensed private security services. This not only creates employment, but ensures that security is on a professional basis, provided by well-trained and well-disciplined personnel. Like I say, I don’t agree with this, but I try to always see the other argument.
Larry A. Singleton says
Big difference between us and the Israelis: A significant number of Jewish civilians are professionally trained soldiers. Every one of them should be able to walk around armed. The whole country is in a state of war.
Read The Haj by Leon Uris and put to rest, once and for all, that Palestinian “right of return” bulls**t.
The Case for Israel by Alan Dershowitz. This is THE book that goes down the list, one by one, of all the accusations leveled at Israel. Dershowitz goes on to destroy each and every one. Read This BOOK!
The Israeli Solution: A One-State Plan for Peace in the Middle East by Caroline B. Glick. The first four chapters of this book ALONE are worth the price of this book.
Read the article “Why is the Pope Provoking War in Israel?” by Brad MacDonald.
dumbledoresarmy says
You wrote – “Big difference between us and the Israelis: A significant number of Jewish civilians are professionally trained soldiers.”
Yep.
Most Jews in Israel, both men and women, undergo military training after high school. And Israeli military training is both thorough and intelligent. Furthermore, after people have undergone their training, they can be recalled as ‘Reservists’ for refresher courses.
What *I* am observing in the various reports of this Muslim onslaught of murders and attempted murders, is that Israeli Jews are exhibiting significant presence of mind. It isn’t just that the attackers are being *shot*. In other cases, they have simply been *jumped on* by bystanders, and wrestled into submission, and pounded flat. Or hit with a ‘nunchuck’ (peculiar looking device). Or subdued by means of an *umbrella* (big one with a heavy head) and a number nine boot. Or…wait for it, this is the 21st century after all, and many of these Israelis are Gen Y and Gen Z – walloped with a **selfie stick**. In another case the would-be murderer, having multiply stabbed some poor Jewish kid (13 years old), was trying to bolt..but an alert Israeli signalled *another* Israeli in a car, and *that* person changed direction so as to *skittle* the fleeing stabber. I kid you not. This is happening.
Looks to me like the military training – whether an Israeli has a gun on him / her or not – is kicking in amongst those ordinary Israelis in the street.

Israel needs to deport all Muslims as soon as it can. The only reason Israel has not done so yet is because its sociopolitical institutions & culture is riddled with PC MC (if not, at times, outright Leftism, which is even worse than PC MC). And what Israel has been suffering at the hands of Muslims within its borders and immediately surrounding it is a microcosm of what the West is headed toward. (Put two and two together, Counter-Jihad Softies.)

Angemon what is your position on deportation? You once said you support deportation Wilders’ style. Including Israel? Angemon where are you going to deport Wilders’ style Israeli Muslims?
Angemon says
Godless posted:
“The same place we should deport non-Israeli Muslims to.”
“Place”, eh? That’s a very generic term, but your non-answer answer is dully noted – Israel should deport Israeli muslims to “a place”.
“Angemon what is your position on deportation?”
If, like you claim, you’ve been reading my comments here you should know it very well since I stated it several times.
“You once said you support deportation Wilders’ style.”
Did I? Where and when? Seems like you’re ascribing me tings I did not say in order to try to catch me in a contradiction, like you’ve done in the past.
Anyway, I asked you several times and never got an answer: do you stand with voeg on his assertion that most people in JW are “fucktards” with a “strange brain impediment“? Well? Do you?
