He was there as a journalist. There were so many other people there that already called. It isn’t as if he was documenting secret acts. His call wouldn’t have changed anything.
Even if you believe he should have done something, did he deserve to die? His crime was inaction, he didn’t actively participate. Other people were killed to get to him, in a hospital. Regardless of if journalists should or shouldn’t act, Israel never claimed he did anything other than documentation.
I thought the whole action was a well kept secret and that was the reason they were so successful? In any case, to me it is not easy to say he was or was not (morally) innocent. It is a complex topic and I have not even nearly enough info.
