Even then, the number of official German, Japanese, and North Vietnamese journalists that died is not included and presumably not small. The WWII and Vietnam casualty counts are for the journalists of the stronger power fighting a war on its enemy's territory so I suppose it could be meaningful to compare them to the number of Israeli journalists killed, but they're not really relevant in the context of Palestinian journalists.
