The diiference in understanding how to mourn the loss of someone who had been appreciated as an esteemed colleague over here versus over there is that until the truth is expressed as truth, being able to understand that Ms Abu Akleh was doing what she was certainly able to do and was inexplicably cut short in the process for 'being in the wrong place at the wrong time;' where is the truth of what really happened; neither side is willing to face the truth and that is the greater tragedy. Where is the honor for Ms Abu Akleh for her bravery?
