Aljazeera is simply not a neutral reporter about the situation in the middle east. They are biased to the point you just can't trust their journaling.

What happened with the news about the hospital bombing by Israel, that supposedly killed 500 Palestinians. Given as a fact by Aljazeera, and later became clear it was an Hamas rocket, it killed less then a dozen people, and didn't even hit the hospital. [1]

They are just blatantly pushing their anti-Semitic agenda.

That article credits Gaza officials and cites no other sources, so it's the officials in Gaza that you can't trust.

They followed up with an article about discrepancies in the reports:

This is fairly standard war reporting, you report on the news you have in a fast-moving environment and follow-up as the picture becomes clearer.

Not much different than an article from the Times of Israel for example, except they say Hamas instead of Gaza officials... they too claim their sources called it an Israeli airstrike:

Are you justifying censorship as you claim to be the arbiter of what's trustworthy and what isn't?

This is quite the opposite. Every social media that is "palestine based" is censoring any other opinion that is contradict the palestine/Hamas narrative.

Try it yourself to put some post or even comment in /r/palestine , /r/chomsky Those are all controlled by brainwashed ISIS-supporter without any real attempt to real discussion about how to solve this situation.

He is saying Al Jazeera is not reliable. I.e maybe we should not believe their report about social media censorship.

The hospital zionist lie has already been debunked time and time again.

What's funny, is that the zionists have provided a video from Aljazeera as "proof" that Hamas bombed the hospital, and said "it's obvious, go look it up yourself". (That's what pushed Aljazeera to make an investigation) But the video was from an hour before the actual bomb was dropped on the hospital.

Anyway, here's an excellent documentary explaining what really happened, and showing the timeline of the events: https://nitter.unixfox.eu/i/status/1716793296217895156

And here's a long twitter thread showing all the proof piece by piece (it's 37 tweets, make sure to hit more replies to see them all): https://nitter.unixfox.eu/i/status/1715446129330925780

Even the mainstream corporate media, afraid of losing all credibility, just _today_ admitted that it was Israel that bombed the hospital: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/24/world/middleeast/gaza-hos...

> The Times cannot independently identify the type of projectile that _was fired from Israel_

Spoiler alert: about the type of the projectile, it was confirmed by U.S. weapons experts as a JDAM, which means it was supplied by the U.S. as part of its military aid. So the American taxpayer is paying for the bombing of hospitals and the murdering of civillians, most of which are children.

> They are just blatantly pushing their anti-Semitic agenda.

There's no antisemitic agenda anywhere on the world. It's just a term used to silence your opponents. However, there's a colonialist agenda for ethnically cleansing Palestinians from Gaza. And this agenda relies on mainstream corporate media to hide the war crimes from the world.

Call for a ceasefire! Save humanity!
