\nI have never seen anything like this before. It is truly shocking. https:\/\/t.co\/V79DWILuLq<\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u201d Hala Gorani (@HalaGorani) May 13, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\nAerial view of Shireen Abu Akleh\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s funeral procession in occupied Jerusalem. What a sight. Truly at a loss for words. Despite the full force of the Israeli police, they could not suppress or deter the people. Palestine bids farewell to a hero & icon \u00f0\u0178\u2022\u0160 \u00f0\u0178\u2021\u00b5\u00f0\u0178\u2021\u00b8 pic.twitter.com\/Fj44eLAUag<\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u201d Yumna (@yumna_patel) May 13, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\nToday was my hardest reporting day yet. I was in Jenin & my friend; young, beautiful & inspiring was being buried in Jerusalem. To say that I believe Shireen is gone, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d be lying. But the truth is she is.
Heavy. Heavy. Heavy. https:\/\/t.co\/GBQUP1sCmp<\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u201d Fatima AbdulKarim (@FatiabdulFatima) May 13, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n\nI\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m sorry to go on about this, but it needs to be called out.
Look at the language used by New York Times, TIME, BBC News, and CBS News\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6
This is how they described an attack by Israeli forces, on the funeral of Palestinian journalist, who had been killed by those same forces. pic.twitter.com\/EWEWpt5wLU<\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u201d Kamahl Santamaria (@KamahlOnTV) May 14, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Appalling scenes in Jerusalem at the funeral of Shireen Abu Akleh.
