The Spin

Pro-Palestine narrative

Abu Akleh was intentionally murdered by Israeli forces while carrying out her job as a journalist. There was no "crossfire," she was clearly identified as a journalist, and other reporters at the scene said that they were shot at intentionally. The ICC must open an investigation and get justice for Abu Akleh's family.

Pro-Israel narrative

While tragic, Abu Akleh's death wasn't deliberate, as was found by multiple investigations. The IDF's probe — which included the US — thoroughly investigated the incident in an unbiased way, regardless of what Israel haters have said. An ICC investigation's findings would be no different.
