The gov't is advancing regulations to close the network's Israel branch, a move journalists and free press defenders decry as baseless and dangerous.

      They’ve murdered aljazeera journalists and other journalistic organizations on multiple occasions. Including directly assassinating Shireen Abu akleh, bombing the family of the Gaza chief correspondent, and bombing the AP headquarters in a previous conflict.

      Bombing the family of the Gaza chief correspondent while he was away working - current conflict

      “They take revenge on us in our children?” he said, kneeling over his son’s bloodied body, still wearing his protective press vest from that day’s work.

      Bombing AP headquarters - 2021

      Every journalist covering the conflict within Gaza and Lebanon is risking their own lives and that of their family members so we can know what’s going on. In my opinion, they’re not getting the respect they deserve from the international community.

        Israel and all their fash supporters lost my respect long ago.

        I had a tiny bit of hope that Biden would somehow turn around the US after finally withdrawing from Afghanistan, but I see now that the US, including Biden, is still the bloodthirsty war criminals they’ve always been.
