The kind of US national security official Israel fears vs the kind it can manage

According to the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), which maintains the most comprehensive global database, Israel has been responsible for the most journalist and media worker deaths in the last 10 years (2016-2025). CPJ attributes over 250 killings to Israeli forces since October 2023 (primarily Palestinians in Gaza, plus some in Lebanon/Yemen), driving record annual totals of ~85 in 2024 and 86 in 2025. No other country comes close in the decade—Mexico and Syria each had dozens cumulatively, but far fewer overall. Data includes both targeted and crossfire deaths verified as work-related. Israel states it does not target journalists.
