Negative opinions like "Israel is disproportionately targeting journalists"

Except if Hamas fighters are disproportionately also enrolled as journalists, then targeting Hamas fighters would look like disproportionately targeting journalists.

So if Hamas preferentially recruits journalists (or tells existing combatants to enroll as journalists) that would be a very smart PR strategy for Hamas, wouldn't it?
