In the weeks after Shireen was killed, and in the face of countless efforts to discredit them, their experience, and their testimonies, these journalists persevered.

‘Haaretz’ runs two articles attacking Israeli Zionism as a hateful dead-end, urging the world to take action. The authors’ scathing words would never make it into an American newspaper.

A coalition called “No Rugers to Israel” can document over 200 Palestinians killed or injured by Rugers — now including Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh — though it believes the true number to be far higher. “For years we’ve been calling attention to sales of Ruger guns and ammunition to the Israeli military which is a serial human rights violator,” says Stanley Heller.
