I'm no fan of Al Jazeera, but neither am I a fan of denial of the right of the press to provide unbiased coverage.

"destroyed the broadcasting vehicles of news crews"

Quran vs. Bible. vs. Torah has always been a media war, book vs. book, oral tradition vs. oral tradition. Yahweh vs. Jesus vs. Allah names. Fighting over John 1:1 words, media venues, Mosques vs. Synagogue

Has nobody ever heard of the Streisand Effect?

Thing is they want people to know this is something can and will do as a demonstration of power.

obie52.bsky.social•347 days ago

I'm aware they are trying to .ake themselves look stronger. Thing is, they instead demonstrate how weak they are that they have to hide what they are doing. That's how cowards act.

Really would like to believe that is the case but as it stands they can kidnap and torture journalists and all we can do is tut about it.

Sure, it's meant to be a threat to other journalists operating in the region.

But the people willing to report from such places are not likely to be intimidated by these transparent efforts. It tends to mostly just piss them off and motivate them.

I think it’s also a message to the US. They’re demonstrating how much stock they’re taking in the recent statements from Schumer and Biden as well.

You can't tell the truth. The truth kills Nazis.

"Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud, reporting from Rafah, said al-Ghoul has been “tortured, beaten and detained by the Israeli military along with his crew member on the ground”."
