Yes, the chart is not ideal.

However, my intention was simply to give an impression of how ruthlessly Israel prevents any reporting on what is actually happening in Gaza.

I think this comparison is sufficient for that purpose, especially since it puts into perspective the enormously high number of media representatives who have been killed in Gaza. I think this makes also clear that the reason for this is most likely that Israel is deliberately targeting media representatives with all means at its disposal – including murder.

But you are absolutely right: this would become even clearer if it were made more explicit that the enormous number of war killed Journalist in Gaza refers to less than two years while other wars were much longer and also more extensive.

I'm afraid the paper doesn't give a concrete answer to that. The historical figures and the discussion of the Gaza War are used here more as background information or for comparison. The focus is mainly on the challenges of modern war reporting, with an emphasis on the wars waged by the US.

I, on the other hand, only mentioned this study to give an impression of how ruthlessly Israel treats journalists. Or even more than that: that this state is obviously deliberately and by all means preventing objective reporting — the reason seems obvious: in my opinion, Israel is committing crimes against humanity and is doing everything in its power to cover it up, apparently not even shying away from deliberately murdering journalists.

In my opinion, there is no other explanation for the absurdly high number of media representatives already killed in Gaza especially in comparison with other, much longer wars that also had significantly larger conflict zones.

This is absolutely typical of this criminal regime – and these are far more than empty threats.

Israel deliberately kills journalists, as evidenced by the fact that more journalists have been killed in Gaza in the last two years "than in the U.S. Civil War, World Wars I and II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War (including the conflicts in Cambodia and Laos), the wars in Yugoslavia in the 1990s and 2000s, and the post-9/11 war in Afghanistan, combined".

Yes, and that shows quite clearly that these people are probably not blessed with particularly impressive cognitive abilities either.

It's not as if there's much here that could fall into decline in the first place...

Oh no, what a sheerstopper! My world is in sheermbles! I guess I should find sheelter somewhere and get in sheerape for the sheerdown!

Yea, these sheernanigans need to stop!

True, but many of those morons who voted for this orange crook will probably be shocked Pikachu - until some lying scumbag comes along and tells them it was really some minority's fault or some other fairytale along those lines. It's just sad.

I am certain that this guy will still work very productively with Israel — and very explicitly in the name of combating anti-Semitism. Just like the rest of the US government, who are all blatant Nazis.

Usually, it's just another term for the same thing, I would say.

The two will surely continue to meet - if only to take drugs together, since they're both such fans of Adderall and stuff.

Yes, and I think that was only possible back then because venture capital firms got involved pretty late. Then, as a result of the dot-com bubble they themselves caused, they burned through a lot of money and destroyed a lot of jobs. Ultimately, they shifted their focus to investing heavily in companies where it was clear how profitable they would become and that their market power could be expanded through acquisitions.

Today, it seems almost impossible to me that a startup without investors could achieve the same level of success as those early Internet companies that have become global corporations. If someone has a good idea, the company is either bought out immediately, or the idea is simply stolen by companies such as Rocket Internet, whose deep pockets quickly ensure that the copy prevails over the original.
