Only the risk of negative publicity dissuades them

What? Killing journalists, medics and shooting at diplomats is positive publicity?

No of course not but these killings tend to be swept under the rug by the media or get drowned out in the sea of atrocities being committed.

Somebody like Greta being killed would cause a media storm which is why I don't think the Zios would try as much as they would like to. Killing female activists is a specialty. See Rachel Corrie.
