Israel kills Al-Jazeera correspondent’s family days after Blinken demands the channel’s coverage be ‘toned down’

Today, Al-Jazeera Bureau Chief Wael El-Dahdouh was reporting live in Gaza when an Israeli airstrike killed his wife and two children. Now, other journalists also fear their families could be targeted solely for them doing their job.


Wael El-Dahdouh, Al-Jazeera Bureau Chief in Gaza, was reporting live when an Israeli airstrike targeted the southern Gaza building where his family sheltered, killing his wife, son, daughter, and grandson.

The news came hours after Axios reported that Secretary Antony Blinken told U.S. Jewish leaders he asked Qatar to “turn down the volume on Al Jazeera’s coverage” of the Israeli genocidal campaign in the Gaza Strip, accusing the network of being “anti-Israel.”

I saw this link on another post of the same story, any better? theguardian.com/…/al-jazeera-journalist-family-ki…

echodot,

I don’t think they’re saying that it doesn’t happen I just think they’re pointing out that there is a potential bias from the source.

fushuan,

There might be a bias on the source, but facts are facts.

NoneOfUrBusiness,

Uh... The site was literally created by Jews.

If you’re not an unrepentant zionist you’re not a real jew, it seems.

stevehobbes,

It was created by a person who happens to be Jewish.

Take your dog whistle shit elsewhere.

Motecuhzoma,

Weiss described the website’s purpose as one of covering American foreign policy in the Middle East from a ‘progressive Jewish perspective’.

They obviously don’t speak for all Jews, but they’re explicitly aiming for a Jewish perspective. It’s more than they just happen to be Jewish, I think

NoneOfUrBusiness,

And that (progressive, mind you) Jew is anti-semitic? While that's not impossible, you'll need more evidence than "someone said so". Maybe an example or two.

Citing MBFC or Snopes is a good sign of being a clown.

Well, facts need to get cancelled then.
