Shireen Abu Akleh

She’s dead at 51.

She was a journalist sent down to Gaza to cover an Israeli “raid” on the Palestinians.

She and a colleague walked past an Israeli checkpoint in flak jackets marked “Press”.

Just after passing it, she was shot in the back of the head above the flak jacket.

The Israelis first claimed the Palestinians did it, and then quickly released footage in their own defense.

Which footage turned out to be quite bogus.

Now our dear NPR reports today that what happened is just another tragic, unexplainable mystery.

Yeah.

Okay.

Sure.
