The BBC’s International Editor On The ‘Gaza War’

Media Lens

(...) As we have repeatedly said, Hamas and other Palestinians did indeed commit major war crimes in attacking and killing unarmed Israeli civilians. But Bowen’s article makes no mention of the trauma inflicted on the Palestinians by a brutal Israeli state over many decades. (...)

Jacobin Nederland

(Tekst loopt door onder de spotprent.)

Spotprent met journalisten achter beeldscherm met gecorrigeerde tekst, die moorden door Israël afzwakt, bijvoorbeeld door ‘Israël vermoordt 16 Palestijnen’ te vervangen door ‘16 Palestijnen komen om’ en door ‘bij luchtaanval op school’ te vervangen door ‘bij luchtaanval in Gaza’

Gevestigde media presenteren zichzelf graag als waakhond van de macht. Hun verslaggeving van de genocide in Gaza laat echter zien dat zij vooral een spreekbuis van de macht zijn. Hoe hebben de media gefaald in hun missie, waarom is hun werk zo bevooroordeeld en welke lessen kunnen we hieruit trekken? (...)

Israel has long restricted aid to Gaza on the argument that Hamas steals it to use as a weapon of control over the population. (...)

For nearly two years, Israel has accused Hamas of stealing aid provided by the United Nations and other international organizations. The government has used that claim as its main rationale for restricting food from entering Gaza.

But the Israeli military never found proof that the Palestinian militant group had systematically stolen aid from the United Nations, the biggest supplier of emergency assistance to Gaza for most of the war, according to two senior Israeli military officials and two other Israelis involved in the matter.

In fact, the Israeli military officials said, the U.N. aid delivery system, which Israel derided and undermined, was largely effective in providing food to Gaza’s desperate and hungry population. (...)

Er lijkt een nieuwe vorm van politieke correctheid in het Nederlandse medialandschap waarin journalisten alles wat Palestijnen wordt aangedaan niet durven te benoemen met de daarvoor zorgvuldig ontwikkelde termen of eufemismen. (...)
