French journalist and renowned Middle East expert Marine Vlahovic was found dead at her home in Marseille on Monday, November 27.
According to reports by La Provence, her body was discovered on the roof terrace of her residence by friends who had grown concerned after she failed to respond to calls or messages. She was 39 years old.
According to ARTE Radio, Marine Vlahovic had dedicated part of her short life to the Palestinian cause.
In Gaza Calling, she compiled video and voice messages from her colleagues and friends in Gaza, trapped under the bombs.
Did Israel just pull a Russia?
More like a Boeing
What are we, a bunch of ASIANS??
I don’t understand this comment.
It’s a meme deployed whenever a westerner describes something their government does as bad by way of comparing it to ‘those evil asiatics’ as if it’s natural to them but not to us
It’s extremely racist in a way that most people don’t even think about, so the meme is to needle them into understanding
I see. What I said did not come from a place of racism against Russians. I am aware that the USA and associated governments can be every bit as messed up, although in less obvious ways.
they only take out traitors
Fuck you.
Ah yes, those famously traitorous Moroccan waiters https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lillehammer_affair
So you’ve made this comment before, which makes me think the one you’ve made here is satirical/sarcastic, or otherwise misjudged. Can you expand on this?
They were pretty clearly trying to get people to validate their support for Israel in that thread and are now upset that no one did.
If you consider journalists traitors, then maybe you’re on the evil side of this issue.
Authorities in Marseille have launched an investigation to determine the cause of Vlahovic’s death.
They’ll get to it just after they figure out who blew up NordStream 2
We…uhhh… suspect Russian involvement
“She was so overcome by the guilt of being an antisemitic terrorist degenerate that she climbed up on that roof, tied herself up, and shot herself twice in the back of the head.”
It was an ukrainian triggerman
It’s disgusting to go after journalists who do nothing but uncover the truth.
Stories like these might frighten journalist, leading us into a dystopian world of wars and lies.
I wouldn’t mind doing this type of journalism if I was even remotely skilled at writing but the fact is they don’t get paid nearly enough. This women was probably passionately pursuing her own journalistic ambitions with no payout other than the work itself. Then she was murdered for it.
leading us into a dystopian world of wars and lies.
Leading? Ye best start believin’ in dystopias, yer in one!
Also known as “the world”
They have murdered far more journalists in and around Gaza and in Lebanon and assassinated who knows how many others overseas.
What’s weird is that I can’t find even one article about her death in the more mainstream French newspapers such as Le Monde or Le Figaro or Libération. There’s something in Ouest France. Did anyone find more?
They’re currently not treating her death as suspicious. I know it doesn’t mean that it isn’t but I think it’s worth mentioning.
When I entered her name in google some small independent articles come up, but its clearly being silenced on all the major networks.

It happened days ago so its not an issue of waiting for the major news outlets to catch on-- its censureship.
Truly, Rest in peace Marine Vlaholic, and good for you for doing what you did.
Very sad to see this happen.
While the circumstances remain unclear, police have stated that there is no initial evidence that a crime has been committed.
Are you fucking kidding me
No cause of death stated, which makes me think it’s either something subtle and hard to detect like a poison, or something unpublishably obvious like a bullet
Definitely suspicious af, but until there is a clear evidence we can only speculate.
Somebody fucking protect Norman Finkelstein before his neighborhood mossad members get his ass
Found dead while making a documentary about the killings in gaza. Of all the rotten luck, eh.
I wonder if there will be an actual transparent independent autopsy or will it be some sort of sham. I mean I dont wonder very much, we all know the answer. But I still wonder a little bit.
Did Lemmy always have it so sites can be embedded?
It is a bug which keeps happening with Almaydeen. No idea why but it is pretty funny.
It might think it’s a video embed or something, this seems like a security issue
OD?
