The Israeli army on Wednesday accused six Al Jazeera journalists covering the war in Gaza of also being current or former paid fighters for Palestinian militant groups. Al Jazeera rejected the claims.
Israel cited documents it purportedly found in Gaza, and other intelligence it gathered, in making the accusations against the journalists, all of whom are Palestinian men. It said four are or have been affiliated with Hamas, and two with Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
Al Jazeera said the accusations were “fabricated” and “part of a wider pattern of hostility” toward the pan-Arab network. It said the claims were “a blatant attempt to silence the few remaining journalists in the region, thereby obscuring the harsh realities of the war from audiences worldwide.”
The Associated Press has been unable to independently verify the authenticity of the documents Israel posted online to support its claims.
Amazing how everyone Israel doesn’t like suddenly become terrorists.
So Hamas is training child soldiers /s
Not sure what’s your point. Both Israel’s government and Al Jazeera can be evil. It’s not a zero-sum game.
How the fuck does that even work? Like what do you have against Al Jazeera?
it’s an untrustworhy news organization that at the very least fails to do an appropriate amount of background check and at most supports and promotes terrorism. Also it’s based in Qatar. Let that fucking sink in for a second.
So your bias is the reason you dislike their bias and you somehow think that makes it ok to paint them as terrorists and murder them? The actual fuck is wrong with you?
One is facilitating a genocide, one is providing first-hand reporting of the genocide
you forgot the part where Al Jazeera is Qatar based organization with clear propaganda agenda. Do you trust Russia Today as well? I wouldn’t trust any organization based in Qatar knowing their track record of human rights abuses.
Do you trust the New York Times, Wapo, NPR, VOA, etc.?
Can you point to the link which is evil?
Lmao go back to Reddit
