A prestigious university has been branded a 'disgrace' after it awarded the world's oldest photojournalism prize for a picture of a mutilated and murdered October 7 victim.

Shani Louk, 22, became a symbol of the brutal Hamas attack after the world saw the picture of gunmen rushing her half-naked corpse back to Gaza on the back of a pick-up.

That photo was the centerpiece of the submission that won photo agency AP the Team Picture Story of the Year category from the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute at the Missouri School of Journalism.

Find a grove of tall trees and 'decorate' them...

[Blurb2350]

Yes, looks like an entirely different physique. Fotos taken at the concert that same day show her to be very slim. And wasn’t the whole Shani Louk back-of-the-truck narrative later (quietly) shown to’ve been false?

[Responsibility2nd]

Good points. My thinking is that those who are furious are the pro pali terrorists here in the US and Europe that should be ashamed and embarrassed for their antisemitism.

[Resolute Conservative]

The footwear suggests and IDF member maybe?

[Blurb2350]

Yes, that was my initial thought too — the body looks much more like a stocky male than a slim young woman. And yes, those boots . . . An IDF soldier or security guard would be a prized trophy.

Ivy League phonies were among the first groups to hire based on Kolor, kink and/or Kin.(DEI = Didn’t Earn It). Their ‘professors’ are the equivalent of Boeing workers who can’t put a plane together safely. Lowlifes who didn’t earn their jobs.

Colleges too, riding the prestige of people who came before them... it’s creepy.

Either she has gained weight or a different person.

This is difficult to say, but bodies begin to bloat shortly after death as fluids and gasses start to build up. That is the difference you are seeing.

[Jonty30]

A Jew is a witness that Isaac was Abraham’s chosen and not Ishmael. Eliminate the Jews and Muslims can push the narrative that they were the favoured people.

It think that’s basically the reason why they want every Jew dead. No witness to dispute the claim.

[Phlyer]

. . . should be ashamed and embarrassed for their antisemitism.

Actually, it's not just anti-semitism. The underlying element is the oppressor/oppressed 'score' of the participants, and since Israel is successful, they are on that basis alone 'oppressors.'

But so are Christians, Americans (in general), anyone who is melanin-limited (even if living under a bridge in a cardboard box).

The main problem with the Jews in Israel is that they are successful in the same region of the world where all the Muslim controlled areas are in abject poverty (except for a few ultra-rich oil sheikhs). There are no geographic or resource reasons why Israel is economically successful while Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon are not. So there are two possible explanations: Either the Muslims are lazy/stupid/criminal/etc. or the Israelis (mostly Jewish) are oppressing them.

But if the Muslims were living next to Americans, or, say, Norwegians, then it would be those who are the terrible oppressors, not the Jews. So, as I said, it's not really anti-semitism.

The body in the truck doesn’t really look bigger than the girl...It’s seems it’s the way she was thrown in the truck with stuff over her back...Her butt and legs looks to be the same...

[zeestephen]

The alleged corpse (how do we know that body is dead?) looks at least 40 pounds heavier than the slender woman shown in personal photos.

How do we even know that is a woman, besides a slight protrusion on the right side of the chest?

Side note - the University of Missouri School of Journalism was the most coveted Masters Degree in the news business in the English speaking world for many decades in the mid-to-late Twentieth Century.

My impression is that U. Missouri is now a distant second to the Columbia University Grad School of Journalism in New York City.

Does anybody notice the difference in body type between the truck photo and photos of her before? Either she has gained weight or a different person. No matter who it was, still kill them all.

Her knees were dislocated or she had broken femurs (thigh bones) because in other video her legs were bent back and feet were pointing backwards.

I think you'd be a little "swollen" if you were beaten to death after a couple of guys bent you over a truck and raped you for a couple of hours.... but maybe she was just retaining fluid and all the photos of the cute thin girl are photo shopped, eh.

Israel just needs to offer the Carthagenian solution to Gaza. Just maybe, we are witnessing a succesfull counter insurgency operation/war. But I doubt it, because most people don't have the spine or stomach for beating insurgencies.

The only way to beat them is to inflict so much terror that even the THOUGHT of attacking a Jew will bring about nightmares and the tears of all the widows and orphans.

Should take about 10-18 years but it's possible. I'm just hoping that they get bulldozers on the northern border of Gaza and level everything and finish on the Egyptian border, then apply about 5-6 inches of salt, sewage, cactus and wild feral dogs. The world would improve by about 0.5% but it would be a nice start.

[Resolute Conservative]

Perhaps. I’ve been around death, but I just noticed the difference. I am not dissuading what they did at all. We should raze them and salt the sand.
Every last one of them. And they don’t need to go by a drone strike and die a proud death. They need to be knifed face to face after being beaten and gutted to show them agonizing pain and hear them scream like babies.
Yes, I know not very civilized of me nor Christian, but this is where we are...

[artichokegrower]

Are you also a Holocaust denier?

[Dick Vomer]

Yeah, I've been around death. Bodies that have been traumatized don't look like the original. Especially around the face and neck if strangled or beaten.

The body also bloats up depending on ambient air temps, humidity and if internal organs (spleen, stomach, intestines and liver) are ruptured, cut or pulverized.

What needs to happen to all the talking heads and international supporters of Palestine is for a rogue unit to take names and treat them as supporters of Hamas and therefore a vital part of the orginazation. Then we'll get to see if the "stand with Palestine" if it may cost them their pathetic lives.

Re: "If the Muslims were living next to Americans, or, say, Norwegians, then it would be those who are the terrible oppressors, not the Jews."

Re: "Not really anti-Semitism."

Sorry, Phyler, that is wildly wrong.

Northern Europe has been overwhelmed with millions of immigrant Muslims, most of them single young males.

France is 11% Muslim.

Germany, Denmark, and the UK are at least 5% Muslim.

Norway is at least 4% Muslim.

The two million (20%) Muslims living in Israel are mostly Middle Class or higher and enjoy personal liberties that Middle East Muslims can only dream about.

Bottom Line...

At least 90% of Muslims literally hate the Jewish people and desire the total destruction of Israel.

[EinNYC]

Take a good look you Palestinian-loving Ivy League morons.

I really wonder how the Palestinian-loving Ivy League morons would change their tune if random females from their protesting ranks were grabbed and viciously raped right in front of the rest of them, having their pelvises broken and nail guns fired into their thighs and genitalia?

[metmom]

It reminds me of the bumper sticker I saw once that said something to the effect of *It’s easy to be pro-choice/abortion when you’re not the one being killed.*

Calls for genocide are the same way.

[Phlyer]

Sorry, Phyler, that is wildly wrong.

I beg to differ, in part. In the other places where there is a significant Muslim population, the Muslims do not control the political/official "government." They benefit from the economy of the non-Muslims without the guilt of not succeeding when in control. The Muslims living in Israeli-controlled portions of Israel likewise benefit from that successful economy (and are, as you said, mostly middle class).

But in Muslim controlled areas, which includes Gaza as well as Syria, etc., the economy is terrible and they have no one to blame but themselves unless there is a great and terrible conspiracy by the 'oppressors' to hold them down. Since the only side-by-side comparisons of Muslim and Western-style control are in and around Israel, that becomes the focus for their guilt and hatred.

Nonetheless, this has been going on for generations and it is certainly true that 90% of the Muslims hate the Jewish people and desire the total detruction of Israel after all that time failing in comparison. It is a bit of a chicken-and-egg thing. Back when all of this area was under Ottoman control, the Jews and Muslims were equally poor and lived alongside each other in reasonable peace. Once the Jews (Western-culture, largely Russian immigrants) gained political/government control and their economy started to do well, the contrast with all the years of Ottoman/Muslim control was too obvious to deny. It needed an explanation, and rather than accept their own failing, they transferred that guilt to hatred for the successful.

My point was that the hatred of Muslim failures for other-group success is not limited to hatred of Jews alone. It would quickly encompass any other groups of 'infidels' if they happened to have that sort of continuing proof (in side-by-side government systems) of the absolute failure of Muslim society.

This is similar to Hitler hatting the Jews. He also hated all 'lesser races' but he hated the Jews in particular because Jews in Germany were generally more successful than Aryan ethnic groups, despite living in the same economy. The comparison made Hitler/Aryans feel guilty for their own lack of success, so they transformed that guilt into hatred for Jews. (It was also financially rewarding when he confiscated all that ill-gotten - somehow or another - wealth.)

My basic point is that the hatred of Muslims for Jews is based less on actual racial distinction and more on hatred of failures for the successful. That has (chicken and egg) resulted in a focused hatred of Jews due to proximity, but the underlying hatred could and will bubble up anywhere their failure becomes undeniable.
