Talal Abu Rahmeh (the photographer) needs to evacuate Gaza and be given asylum in France as quickly as possible. Any French journalist in the Middle East should also take a vacation out of the area around the time that this thing “hits”. Precautions should also be taken by local stringers known to work for French media.

The tape might reveal nothing new, but having it shown to a judge, and especially if the results are made public, could lead to reprisals against Talal.
