For those who are not familiar with him, Charles Villa is an independant french field reporter and war journalist who covered many conflicts, consequences of war and managed to get interview with elusive people such as mexican sicario, members of the mexican gang of sinaloa documenting how they make cocaine pass the US border, drug cartel members documenting how they make heroin in forest kitchen, children working in rare earth mine, children soldiers in Congo, drones pilots and makers in Ukraine, neonazis group in Ukraine, European undergound fight clubs, produced a documentary on fixers (people who make field journalists able to work), investigated daech and islamic state, and much more.

This time it's a full length documentary on inside Gaza over 2 years with a focus on children, the biggest project of his career according to him. despite his field experience and what he has seen during his presence in conflict zones, he says he has never seen such a scale as what is happening in Gaza and has been working with Suhail Nassar, a Palestinian who filmed everything he could, to provide this documentary for free to the world thanks to crowdfunding.

I put time and effort to get around the dated and unintuitive UI/UX, but it is too convoluted to do even some basic stuff. and the repeated crashes are too much of a pain to be ready for everyday use.

I tried alternatives such as openshot and shotcut, but they too have a lot of room for improvement. it seems there always a flaw of some kind and a lack of usability for this kind of software.

not taking anything for the time, efforts ad good will the devs put into these software, and many thanks to them for everything. but commercial software benefits from the years of having team of full time employees giving them a serious edge on opensource software for video editing.

same administration who has a son sitting on the board and a father president who has lifted all sanctions and investigations.

we even have video of representatives placing their bets or buying stock during session, right before voting on the matter.

cause up until now I have observed the exact opposite which is coherent with expectations: https://coding2learn.org/blog/2013/07/29/kids-cant-use-compu...

upfront breaking the basic expectation of having a clickable link is enough for me to know that this piece of software is badly designed and is not worth my time.

but it is concerning that there is still a lot of people who totally miss this obvious flaw in the claim.

it takes a couple minutes to test the claim and notice that the issue in affecting all Lebanon and not only the Southern region where israel is invading and leveling entire villages to the ground as they did in Gaza.

zooming in around the Lebanon border you notice instantly that a lot of information is missing as the background become white: https://i.imgur.com/L2p1j15.png

and following this clue, you soon notice that the same issue of missing labels is also happening in Syria: https://i.imgur.com/8p1ANAZ.png

there is no evidence supporting the claim and evidence actually tends to disprove it.

so the verification process you suggest actually disproves the claim.

and if stop fixating on South Lebanon and go to other places where israel is not invading and destroying villages, let's say Syria, you'll notice the exact same issue: https://imgur.com/8p1ANAZ

so your argument actually go against what you attempt to demonstrate.

now why is apple bad at maps in this area and possibly other areas elsewhere in the world is a different matter.
