Israeli soldiers raid, order closure of Al Jazeera office in Ramallah

While this article doesn’t mention it (yet), their Live coverage does mention that the soldiers also tore down and destroyed images of Shireen Abu Akleh, the Al Jazeera journalist murdered by Israeli soldiers in 2022.

I’m sure there was a legitimate military purpose for tearing down posters of a victim like Shireen. /s

No war crimes to see here, time to move along.

Al Jazeera’s live coverage a few minutes ago posted an update saying:

The closure order was signed after a legal opinion and intelligence assessment “determined that the offices were being used to incite terror, to support terrorist activities and that the channel’s broadcasts endanger the security and public order in both the area and the State of Israel as a whole,” a military statement said.

In some sense it is true that the broadcasts endanger the state of Israel: in the sense that accurately showing the atrocities Israel commits weakens global support for European and American colonization of the Middle East.

Lügenpresse.

Edit: sorry, I misunderstood your post. You’re not calling Al Jazeera lying press, you’re noticing the similarities between Nazi propaganda and Israeli propaganda.

The bot's credibility is poor.

But MBFC rates MBFC so highly!

Nobody believes those imperial truth bots. They literally rank the hegemonic mouthpiece of the NYTimes as leftist and factual. This is a pro-genocide rag that every single leftist hates. JFC.
