Young Palestinian creator Medo Halimy who shared glimpses of daily life during war dies
Medo Halimy, a 19-year-old creator who documented personal, day-in-the-life vlogs from his “tent life,” died after an Israeli airstrike put him in a coma.
The title of the article;
Young Palestinian creator who shared glimpses of daily life during war dies
Within the news article;
Medo Halimy, 19, died after he was hit by shrapnel during an Israeli airstrike on Gaza’s southern city of Khan Younis on Monday, several of his friends told NBC News.
He was murdered, they should change the title to;
Young Palestinian creator who shared glimpses of daily life during war murdered by Israeli airstrike
Even the most passive, neutral reporter in the world in any other case could/would say
"Young Palestinian creator who shared glimpses of daily life during war killed by Israeli airstrike."
That is just 100% fact without a shadow of any doubt at all. The airstrike created the shrapnel that killed him, launched by Israel.
dies
They are really laying it on thick with the passive voice.
"dies"
That just happens sometimes.
Dammit fuck, was he on chemo and didn't tell no one? Oh man... or please don't tell me OD'd?
He just died while vlogging about surviving being trapped under daily genocidal indiscrimenant bombing for almost an entire year.
Halimy was an alumnus of the State Department’s Kennedy-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study (YES) program, which gives high school students from countries with “significant Muslim populations” the opportunity to live and study in the United States for an academic year.
He attended Harker Heights High School in the Texan city of the same name as part of the program in 2021 and 2022.
“Medo was creating vlogs of his daily life as a refugee in Almawasi, where he showed people how it is to live in a tent and how surviving a genocide isn’t an easy feat but he was doing it either way,” it said. “It wasn’t an easy feat at all.”
"teenage hamas adjacent terrorist runs into shrapnel; dies by his own actions" /s
edit: good points in the replies-- should have added /s because people say this unironically
See I think the problem is that I can't tell if you're making fun of the obvious bias of newspaper headlines and articles, or the teenager who just died... Because it's the kind of thing the IDF would unironically say.
A great alternative to “unironically,” is “seriously.” I say this unironically, and not in the Morissette way.

The CBC and BBC got it right.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/israel-hamas-airstrike-medo-halimy-1.7308918
BBC says “alleged airstrike”. For anyone questioning how media is helping “washing” the genocide.
It goes like this:
- use passive language as much as you can when you dont like what happen
- use suggestive language to blame hamas
- mention how it all started in october 7
- mention 1200 killed by hamas ignoring “idf” Hannibal directive.
- mention number of people in Gaza reported earlier this year, make sure to say hamas runs the health ministry who reported this number.
- dont mention starving children, lack of food, water, and vaccine.
- dont mention any “idf” act of genocide like killing their own hostage waving a white flag or the international court genocide case.
- pretend that you have nothing to do with it
- make sure to include “idf” statement or that they are doing an investigation.
I love how Americans kill half my people, refuse to even acknowledge it. Suddenly they're on to the next news story and morally grand standing and patting their own backs, while calling everyone else murderers
Maybe, just maybe, the Americans who support Palestinians aren't the same Americans who are support our genocidal military industrial complex.
70% of Americans want an immediate ceasefire. 75% Americans are opposed to any increases in military spending (56% want a decrease: https://afsc.org/news/most-us-adults-support-pentagon-spending-cuts). So please understand that the US government is a plutocracy that doesn't represent the will of the American people anymore than Putin represents the majority of Russians.
Americans are not a hive mind. The ones who mourn his loss are not the ones in power happily sending aid to Israel. Just like not every Palestinian participated in Oct 7.
Wonder what he died of? Weird that the headline phrasing is so vague and passive.
if you click on the link it’s actually a whole article
...and that still doesn't change the fact that the headline is using passive language to lessen the impact of this boy's death. You see this shit with police killings too; they say someone, "Died in police custody," rather than, "Killed during a violent arrest." Betty White died, this kid was killed in an air strike.
