Al Jazeera isn’t the press. It’s a terrorist operation. Al Jazeera, an arm of the Islamic terror state of Qatar, originally the video dump for Osama bin Laden’s greatest hits, bought up much of Washington D.C. and corrupted the media so that everyone pretends it’s a news organization. The United States not only knew that […]
Fortunately, Not Everyone Depends on CNN For Gaza Coverage
CNN has, in its coverage of the IDF’s Al-Shifa operation, performed dismally: “CNN’s coverage of Shifa Hospital is abysmal. Every IDF claim is doubted, and none of the Palestinian claims – unless they support the IDF statements,” Elder of Ziyon, March 31, 2024: CNN takes pains to cast doubt on literally everything the IDF says. […]
How CNN Reported on the IDF’s Spectacular Operation at Al-Shifa Hospital
On March 19, having feigned for several weeks that it was about to attack sites in central Gaza, the IDF instead launched a surprise attack on the Al-Shifa Hospital just outside Gaza City. During the previous month, many hundreds of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad operatives and their families had been streaming into Al-Shifa, where […]
NPR Reporter Wants to Make Hostage Freed by IDF on Feb. 12 Feel Guilty About Gazan Deaths That Day
In February, IDF special forces managed to raid a site in Gaza and free two hostages being held by Hamas — Luis Har and Fernando Marman. When NPR’s Daniel Estrin interviewed Har, a 71-year-old accountant, instead of sympathetically sharing in Har’s relief, he seemed peeved that Har did not criticize the IDF’s use of airstrikes […]
Selective Sympathies, Or, Only Palestinian Lives Matter
Have you noticed how the war in Gaza, or rather, the “suffering women and especially children” in Gaza, are now taking up so much of the news bandwidth? Since that war started on October 7, we no longer see on the nightly news much about the war in Ukraine, though that war is still going […]
Gaza, Sudan, and the Media’s Selective Sympathies
While we are constantly told in the media about an impending “food crisis” in Gaza — which crisis is largely the result not of an absence of food but of the maldistribution of food aid, much of which is seized by Hamas for the benefit of its own operatives, their extended families, and the clans […]
Hamas and Al Jazeera admit that claims of IDF raping women in Gaza hospital were false
According to a hadith, Muhammad said, “War is deceit.” (Bukhari 4.52.268). “Hamas, Al Jazeera admit: Story of IDF rapes in Gaza hospital fabricated,” by Ohad Merlin, Jerusalem Post, March 25, 2024: After more than 24 hours of letting the story run freely, Qatari mouthpiece Al Jazeera deleted the page featuring their former story, which accused […]
In Its Middle East Coverage, the BBC Can Hardly Be Distinguished From Al Jazeera
In its Middle East coverage, the BBC can hardly be distinguished from Al Jazeera: “BBC pressured to suspend journalists who ‘liked’ videos celebrating Oct. 7 or wrote anti-Israel post,” by Melissa Koenig, New York Post, March 18, 2024: Al Azzi, who has worked for the BBC since 2019, described Israel as a “terrorist apartheid state” […]
BBC Keeps Journalists on Staff Who Retweeted Praise of October 7 Attacks
The BBC has for many decades been notoriously anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian in its Middle East coverage. Among the main offenders there was the execrable John Simpson, who for years was in charge of all foreign broadcasts as head of BBC World Services; there was Jeremy Bowen, who for years was the BBC’s Middle East Editor, […]
According to Reuters, Hezbollah Attacks are a Thing of the Past
Reuters’ reporters seem to have a blind spot when it comes to Hezbollah. That is, they appear not to see the barrage of rockets that the Shi’a terror group has been launching at the Jewish state almost every other day since October 7. In fact, Hezbollah’s attacks have increased in frequency and size since October. […]
