THOUSANDS OF VULNERABLE PEOPLE IN CONGO theintercept
Al Jazeera has highlighted the rising death toll among Palestinian civilians, including children. Thanks to this media organisation, the world sees and knows how vicious the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have been. They have committed war crime after war crime. The news station has also reported on the killing of journalists, including its own.
Shame on the US and its Western allies. Shame on the Western television broadcasters like the BBC and CNN for their bias and their unprofessional behaviour. Shame also on newspapers like the Washington Post, the New York Times, the Times and Der Spiegel. They too did not report truthfully on the destruction of Gaza. Nor did they balance their presentation of the news. They readily reported the points of views of the Israeli government and the opinions of leaders in Washington, London, Paris, Berlin and Brussels who support Israel.
In contrast, they were ever so careful in reporting the opinions of those leaders from the non-West and Global South who offered alternative perspectives on the goings-on. Why, the Western media were even guarded in reporting the massive demonstrations in Western countries protesting against the war and calling for an immediate ceasefire.
The unequivocal support of Washington, London, the G7 countries and the EU countries for Israel revealed the emptiness of Washington’s mantra about “the rules-based international order”.
It was clearly exposed that there was one rule for the West and its allies, another rule for those who dared to challenge and confront them. Hopefully, they will be embarrassed about preaching to us about these rules in the future.
The related revelation is that the so-called leading news agencies, newspapers, global TV stations dance to the tune of their political elite too. Not just Fox, but the BBC and CNN too. Not just the Daily Mail but the Times, the Guardian and the Independent as well.
