We haven't seen this level of journalism before. There were times that you can do this, but subtle and unseen. Now it's out loud and with no guilt in talking like that. It's disgusting.
Not going to post it here but there have been more videos coming of the aftermath of some on-field executions in the last couple of days.
The last one is from Rimal and some of the victims are children.
Julia Hartley-Brewer is an idiot. And that’s me being generous.The lack of respect of the Westerner to Easterner on display. This is far beyond just this specific conflict.
So you personally have seen videos of summary executions of children in gaza by the IDF? Juat to clarify
She's terrible but also something about this Max guy seems off to me.
Not familiar with him?She's terrible but also something about this Max guy seems off to me.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_BlumenthalBlumenthal is the editor of The Grayzone website, which is known for its apologetic coverage of authoritarian regimes such as the Chinese, Russian, Syrian, and Venezuelan governments, including its denial of chemical attacks by the Syrian government and of human rights abuses against Uyghurs.[9][10][11][12][13]
Not the executions themselves but the aftermath.

I dont want to downplay the attrocities that are ocurrying in gaza, but snipers killing civilians (truly horrible by itself) is not the same than summary executions
Incorrect. He is extreme anti imperialist but he is an investigative journalist.No, haven't paid attention to his views on other issues before this video. He's a lot like Hinkle then, both are very likely not genuine in caring about Palestine.

One might not agree with his conclusions(can be.wrong) or the causes he embraces, that doesn’t mean he peddles in falsehoods.
Oh ok but your reply is unrelated to my post.'Investigative journalist' is a very generous description of his work. I haven't looked at any of his coverage or comments on Gaza but his track record in Syria is despicable and he should be totally discredited for the conspiracy theories he peddled there alone. He practically led the campaign of conflating the White Helmets with Al Qaeda, as well as the campaign claiming rebels used chemical weapons against themselves. Whatever he says should be treated with extreme skepticism as he's not some journalist committed to truth but a man with his own agenda and a record of deliberate falsehoods. If he was indeed anti-imperialist at least that'd be commendable, but he's only anti-US imperialism and is perfectly happy championing Iran and Russia's own imperialist crimes.
Why is Puma still on the list? The reason given is their sponsorship of the Israel football team but that's been pulled. I type this in my Puma trackies![]()
Is it? I was addressing the parts saying that he's an investigative journalist and that he doesn't peddle falsehoods.Oh ok but your reply is unrelated to my post.
Remember, journalists aren't targeted, that's a blood libel/antisemitism claim.There's no way this Aljazeera journalist doesn't belong to specifically designed targets.
Watch the post I just posted.There's no way this Aljazeera journalist doesn't belong to specifically designed targets.
