What a disgusting woman. What a disgrace for the profession. After the interview, Wafa had received calls and threats to her phone, almost a year later, she became the 174th Palestinian journalist to be targeted and killed by Israel. Israel has killed 190 Palestinian journalists since Oct. 7. (4/4)

I came across one by the vilest woman I've yet to learn about: Julia Hartley-Brewer. She ridicules and dehumanizes Wafa's experience and that of Palestinians in Gaza, 10 days into the genocide. (2/4)
