Elder of Ziyon
Based on the audio forensics of the gunshots/bullet shockwave, this building is the exact distance away that the gun that killed her was - between 178-187 meters away from the microphone that recorded the shots depending on where one would be standing on the roof of this house.
Here is the path a bullet would take from that house to Abu Akleh.
I have found a fantastic high resolution aerial video of Jenin, uploaded to YouTube last month, which shows even more clearly how perfect that location would be both for Jenin snipers to be positioned and their line of sight to Shireen.
Not only is there perfect line of sight to where Abu Akleh was standing, but from the vantage point of the snipers there would be an unimpeded view down the street to where the IDF convoy was likely (and, indeed, did) pass by.
As previously reported, multiple witnesses said that they saw snipers on buildings at the time of Abu Akleh's death. We do not have any direct video of those gunmen at that time, but it is obvious that the terrorists would use rooftops as the most strategic firing locations in Jenin. Proof can be seen from this video of multiple gunmen two days later, on May 13, shooting northward from a rooftop/terrace from which you can see the sports field and also the house I just mentioned.
Even the famous video from Jenin on May 11, where the terrorists tell each other that an IDF soldier was down at the time Abu Akleh was killed, shows a puff of smoke from a rooftop apparently from gunfire (0:15)
The shebab clearly act like they own the refugee camp. They will not ask permission to take over a rooftop firing position.
The analyses from CNN, AP and Bellingcat did not give readers any idea of the scope of gunman activity in Jenin that day, only showing two groups of militants when in fact they were all over the area. The "experts" did not identify, directly or indirectly, a single case of gunmen on rooftops.
Yet those rooftop gunmen are the only people with a clear line of sight to Shireen.
Nor do these "investigators" mention how amateur these gunmen are, often firing without aiming. That is obvious from the video above, and even clearer in this video uploaded on the day Shireen was killed.
This is all circumstantial evidence, of course, but so is the "evidence" given by the media that blame the IDF.
The circumstantial and hard evidence that indicates that Jenin gunmen killed Shireen Abu Akleh, and that the IDF didn't, is far more compelling:
- We know the killer was between 177 and 195 meters away from the microphone near Shireen. (audio forensics)
- We know that the IDF was more than 200 meters away. (video)
- The only recorded people with guns in that zone were Jenin militants to the southeast of Shireen. (video)
- There were gunmen on rooftops that were pointed out by residents/journalists minutes before her death. (video of pointing)
- Jenin gunmen shoot from roofs of multiple buildings, and it doesn't appear that they ask permission. (video above)
- There is at least one building with a roof that is ideal for gunmen that is also the exact distance from Abu Akleh that the audio forensics indicates, and one of the Jenin residents/journalists pointed in that direction. (photos, maps above)
- The best line of sight to Shireen would have been from an elevated position such as a rooftop. (logic)
- The two main witnesses to her death said explicitly that she was killed by "snipers" in buildings "across" from her, when there was no IDF presence in that area. (video, interview)
- Jenin gunmen fire without looking carefully at their targets. They are not professionals in any sense. (video above)
- The bullet pattern on the tree next to Abu Akleh, the one hitting Shireen and the one hitting Ali Samoudi, is far more indicative of wild Jenin gunmen-style firing than shooting by professional soldiers. (CNN's idiot "expert" who is known to hate Israel claimed the exact opposite!)
- The IDF has no incentive, and plenty of disincentive, to kill reporters, and reporters specifically show themselves to the IDF every day to ensure their own safety - including on May 11.
All evidence points to the real killers - the Palestinian terrorist youth who have hijacked the Jenin camp.
