Rules:

  1. Be civil. Disagreements happen, that does not give you the right to personally insult each other.

  2. No racism or bigotry.

  3. Posts from sources that aren't known to be incredibly biased for either side of the spectrum are preferred. If this is not an option, you may post from whatever source you have as long as it is relevant to this community.

  4. Post titles should be the same as the article title.

  5. No spam, self-promotion, or trolling.

Instance-wide rules always apply.

Is this so Israel can label their journalists as enemy combatants?

So when you don't wear a uniform or otherwise show yourself to be part of an army....you raid your enemies land, etc. By the Geneva convention you are an unlawful combatant. Unlawful combatants, per the Geneva convention and international law, are like pirates. You can do anything you want to them.

The journalists Israel kills are usually wearing UN Press uniforms.

There is no such thing as UN Press, but the UN defines the uniform that Press wear in combat zones.
