  • AbdullahAl Jamal worked for Al Jazeera and published almost daily articles in English in the "Palestine Chronicle" since the beginning of the war. From the linked article.

    Meanwhile Al Jazeera says that the guy only contributed on a single op-ed in 2019 and that's the extent of it. Here is an archive link to their response https://archive.is/EDOCN. Not only that, but ynet seems to have cut out the part where Al Jazeera says that the guy contributed only on an op-ed in 2019.

    Checking an archive from the 9th of June of Al Jazeera's website seems to confirm this information: https://archive.is/RypQP

    So, even if this guy had kidnapped/held a hostage, I don't see the connection to Al Jazeera. Certainly not the connection that this article is trying to paint here. And don't forget that the IDF hasn't even confirmed if this guy even held any hostages.

    I personally call bullshit. Either that or ynet are too incompetent to prove their claims that this guy wrote for Al Jazeera every day.

    Or the title has been written like that on purpose to confuse people and conflate Al Jazeera with whatever this guy was writing god knows where else.

  • I've been paying lots of attention. I don't need a westerner to tell me what to think about the place where I'm from. Based on your post history you're Finnish. I don't need your sense of superiority here. I know very well what I'm talking about, and you are entitled to disagree with that, but do not go on ad hominem attacks. If your points are so easy to understand and bring across, then do suit yourself and start going into the details already. Starting from my original point of criticism, do tell me how far-right religious lunatics would've fit into the USSR political class.

  • I'm from an Eastern European country that was USSR aligned and part of the Warsaw Pact. I don't have an idealized image of the USSR, nor of the West. I just find it hilarious how people cling to anti USSR messages when there's plenty of actual stuff to criticize about today's Russia.

  • A deal has been on the table for weeks now. A deal that would've released all the hostages and would've caused zero Palestinian deaths. I guess to the average Israeli one of their citizens goes for at least 50 Palestinians though.

  • Just for your information, but Russia hasn't been part of the USSR for over 30 years now. Also, Putin's Russia is extremely different to the USSR, in that it is now ruled by far-right religious fanatics. I don't think that would fit well into the USSR.

  • University Network for Human Rights, the International Human Rights Clinic at Boston University School of Law, the International Human Rights Clinic at Cornell Law School, the Centre for Human Rights at the University of Pretoria, and the Lowenstein Human Rights Project at Yale Law School

    Crazy. I never expected to see big Ivy League school names there but here we are. Even the most status quo and US aligned universities are now calling it a genocide.

  • So many mayors have been shot and killed in Mexico over the last year but suddenly all of this is connected to the new female president elect? Who makes up these connections and why do they call themselves journalists

  • Russian military? Sure. Russians altogether? That's a bit genocidal. They shouldn't sink down to Putin's level. Besides that, I honestly think that there are bigger geopolitic reasons to allow their soldiers to go fight in other places other than at home.
