#Iraqi journalist Ahmed Abdul Samad in this video a few hours before he was murder by #Iran backed militia for criticizing the Arbitrary arrests of #IraqProtests.
He asked a simple but yet powerful question.
How come there were no arrests when they protested against America?
Honestly one of the bravest jobs in the world right now is to be an Iraqi journalist. Ahmed Abdul Samad and his cameraman Safaa Ghali were shot dead in their car in Basra right after Ahmed broadcast a video accusing militias of arresting activists. RIP https://cpj.org/2020/01/dijlah-tv-journalists-killed-protest-basra.php …
The assassination of journalist Ahmed Abdul Samad, the correspondent of the Tigris Channel in Basra shortly before. This is Khamenei's response to the killing of Qassem Soleimani.!

"Today security forces were chasing demonstrators in Basrah... journalist Ahmed Abdul Samad questioned why those who protest against the US are not arrested, whereas those who oppose Iran are.
3 hours later he and his camera-man were shot dead in their car"
