No One Will Talk To Israeli Reporters At World Cup Over Palestine

ISRAEL IMPERIALISM - FOLLOW THE MONEY

It's not clear what kind of reception Israeli media operations were expecting from fans at the World Cup in Qatar.

But videos emerging from the games reveal that many attendees from a range of countries have zero interest in talking to reporters from the apartheid state of Israel.

And they're not shy about expressing that viewpoint to the reporters' face.

Jimmy shares a series of representative videos from the Qatar games and discusses how Israelis typically treat Arab journalists.

Palestinian American Journalist, Shireen Abu Akleh, who was killed by Israeli forces in May while reporting from the invaded and stolen land in the West Bank city of Jenin, was deliberately and repeatedly targeted, along with her colleagues, despite being clearly identified as a member of the press, a new report released Tuesday concludes.

The report, a collaboration between Palestinian human rights group Al-Haq and the U.K.-based research agency Forensic Architecture, confirms the findings of half a dozen earlier independent reviews of the incident, including by the United Nations, which have found that Israeli forces were responsible for Abu Akleh's killing, with the U.N. noting that the bullet that killed her was "well aimed."

But the new report, which includes a detailed digital reconstruction of the incident based on previously unseen footage recorded by Al Jazeera staff at the scene, in addition to witness testimony, open-source video, and a drone survey of the area, offers the most conclusive account yet of what transpired that day.
