ISRAEL IMPERIALISM - FOLLOW THE MONEY

Israel has continued its war on journalism with another attack on Al Jazeera, this time with a raid on the outlet’s office in the West Bank and an order to shut down for 45 days. The shuttering occurred despite the office being legally under Palestinian control per the Oslo Accords.

This move comes as Israel and Hezbollah exchange heavy fire and step closer to the brink of full-scale war, and as Israel continues its daily massacres in Gaza and keeps ramping up its brutality toward Palestinians in the West Bank.

Israel keeps attacking Al Jazeera, assassinating journalists and bombing press offices for the same reason the mafia kills witnesses. They want to commit their crimes in the dark.

Journalist Jonathan Cook writes of the news:

Having destroyed Al Jazeera’s office in Gaza, and killed much of its staff there, having outlawed Al Jazeera from broadcasting in Israel, having admitted executing Al Jazeera reporter Shireen Abu Akleh (after lying that Palestinians did it), Israeli troops have now invaded Al Jazeera’s office in the West Bank city of Ramallah, supposedly under the control of the Palestinian Authority, and shuttered the channel’s operations.

This is the latest attack on journalism by Israel: over the past year, it has killed more than 170 journalists, most of them Palestinians, and barred all foreign correspondents from reporting from Gaza.

When will the U.S. and UK proscribe Israel as a terrorist state?

When will western media organizations and western journalists speak up in solidarity with their terrorized colleagues in occupied Palestine?

Israel hates truth.
