      Ahead enough of what? Should we have contingency plans in case the EU one day out of the blue decides to sanction us??? How far ahead should we be planning? Stock up for a year? How should we pay rent, utilities, health insurance etc with no bank account?

      So you’re saying he shouldn’t have covered the genocide in Gaza, or that he should have put money in his mattress, and it’s his fault his children are now at risk, rather than the system that decided to sanction him over his coverage of Gaza?

        No. He’s provided an invaluable service to the rest of us. Ideally someone is his community offer to care for the children while his wife disentangles herself from the sanctions. He knew since last year he was being sanctioned, it’s not responsible to forgoe a contingency plan for his loved ones.

        This shouldn’t have been a surprise, and it should be a wake-up call for other journalists to create these sort of contingency plans.

          Bro the contingency was his wife had money and could shoulder the burden for a little while. Then they froze all of her assets too. You know, the person NOT under sanctions for covering isreals ethnic cleansing.

          TF is wrong with you?
