Israel stepped up its censorship of Al Jazeera on Sunday as soldiers raided the Qatar-based news network's Ramallah offices in the occupied West Bank and ordered a 45-day closure of the bureau. This comes after the Netanyahu government banned the network inside of Israel in May under a new media law giving authorities broad power to censor foreign outlets deemed to be security threats. "It was a show of force, a show of intimidation to show journalists around the globe that what's happening in Gaza and the West Bank isn't allowed to be reported," Al Jazeera managing editor Mohamed Moawad tells Democracy Now! Israeli forces have killed as many as 160 journalists in Gaza over the last year, including several who work for Al Jazeera. In 2022, an Israeli sniper killed the network's acclaimed Palestinian American correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh in the West Bank.

To avoid any other problems, Israel needs to cancel the practice of administrative detention (renewable 6 months of detention without any charges). Their opponent will consider those detainees as hostages because there is no charge against them.
Funny Aljazeera is complaining when Qatar, its mother nation does not allow for free speech nor religious freedom
Might be.
Nevertheless, ALJAZZERA is a stunning phenomenal journalistic source.
The myth of humanity and democracy countries don't fulfill this standard of journalism.
Cooperate main media is a freak show. Total corrupt, from top to bottom.
By the way, do you really care for free speech in different societies ?
Tearing down the picture of Shareem is insult to injury
*Shireen
It’s pure terrorism
Isis and who supports morally around the world those should count as hate mongers too
fascists
You don’t know what that word even means.
Al Jazeera is funded by Qatar a state sponsor of Terrorism.
Get a clue.
Evil may run but thanks to AlJazeera reporters💙🧡, their war crimes comes to us everyday, evil won't be able to hide their heinous crimes‼️
Al Jazeera reporters were conspiring with HAMAS and even helping to hide hostages in Gaza. Is that journalism?
@professorfink Giving this (probably you can't factualize) as an example is a shame‼️ when you have thousands of war crime videos before us committed not only against Palestinians but against Healthcare workers, aid workers plus, highest number of journalists ever been targeted and killed🤬 You don't even have to look if it's against the law, which it is, it's f*ng against humanity🤨. I don't know why you call yourself professor--- but, you certainly have flunked this class🤣
@@professorfink Yes; sure. Believe Zionist genocides lies. Did you forgotten that people can do their own investigations now a days. Or are you gone to call us all anti-Semites? The name calling is not working anymore!
No love and freedom in this crazy world
Don't give up. They want us to be hopeless. ❤
THIS is terrorism SMH 🤬

This is not Democracy, the basic freedom of speech. They do not represent the democracy we espouse in the United States. We need to call out this type of action.
Special Mohamed - Democracy, Freedom of speech - it dos not exist in any Arab country or in Gaza or the West Bank!
Al Jazeera is closed down in the so called West Bank.
Al Jazeera journalists can all go back to Qatar and interview the Hamas billionaire leadership, ask them why Hamas is reselliing Gazans the aid Israel sends in to Gaza every day (80% of all Gazan aid is provided by Israel)
I suppose a tit for tat shutting of an Israeli media office in Qatar or any Arab country would be a response, what do you think?
Oh there are none!
I remind you Israel is keeping Gazans alive now.
If Israel stopped providing Israeli food to keep Gazans alive they would all starve to death
Hamas is stealing the food and selling it to the Gazan civillians.
YOU DONT CARE DO YOU!
Remember the attempted Genocide the Arabs launched in 1948, then the ethnic cleansing of Jewish citizens in Arab countries 850,000 of them, following the Arab defeat in that war.
There is not one Israeli media office allowed in any Arab country.
Al Jazeera journalists took part in 7 October.
Close Al Jazeera down and deport their staff to Qatar where they can interview the billionaire Hamas leaders who live there in luxury and will not even allow the rd cross to visit the hostages, not even the 1 year old they are holding.
Your are a disgrace!

Why don’t you call out October 7 can I send you a free pager ?
@@mg9660Israel was to blame how's that for calling out Oct 7 for years of occupation of Palestinians. Nettie had all the surveillance how did he not know perhaps IDF was behind it he is like Trump here a huge liar.
The pager comment was way out of line.
Democracy in US is a fantacy of democrats who's goal is to implement communism and do away with the Republic
@@mg9660Palestinians have a right to defend themselves. Since 1948.
Still USA goverment send billion dolar tax money and support arming israel
SAD
Shame on our government
Remember that when you go vote
The amount of money the United States sends to Israel is totally dwarfed by the amount of money sent to Muslim countries.
Let's agree: no more Aid to Israel and no more Aid to Arab countries.
The aid to Arab countries allows extremism to continue. If Arabs were forced to take care of themselves they could not continue their terrorist ways
Expresa y cuenta toda la verdad.. qué hacen con el dinero que les dan para la población Palestina en los terroristas de hamás???? Ellos tienen una vida de. Rey en Qatar... Mientras. Las víctimas del conflicto mueren de hambre y de frío. Y pasan y cruzan toda clase de penurias. (. Todavía ustedes no se dan cuenta que ese grupo terrorista usa a estas personas. A las víctimas del conflicto que quedan atrapados en medio de la guerra. Cómo escudos humanos. De eso no hablan los periodistas de la al yazira. Sustentados y pagados por el país de Qatar... Hipocresía,100/00
Freedom of speech is a fundamental principle.
Thank you Al Jazerra
Stay strong- the world is watching 👀
Yes, free the speech for all the Muslin Ladies.
God did not give you anything if you killed his children to get it.😢😢😢

The documentary movie about Netanyahu “the bibi files” played at “the Toronto film festival” September 10, 2024. The film details the corruption cases that resulted in him being indicted for charges of breach of trust, bribery, and fraud in 2019. The cases also implicate his wife Sara and son Yair. Those cases have dragged through the court system without resolution.
Maybe because the charges aren’t true..
@@marilynrega3634 Tell me who made it and I'll tell you how true it is
@noorpath9127 the son must be hidding in Miami to avoid prosecution...and he is a COWARD who will not fight with his piers..
@marilynrega3634 the charges are true...the evidence is overwhelming.
All of those charges are true there's Multiple evidence plus recording and videos of him accepting bribes plus Netanyahu is done as soon as this war ends for everything hes doing now
Don't they know they are the only democracy in the Middle-East? LoL
Next to every country around them, still is, there isn't Even free speech or opposition or elections in the west bank and Gaza for almost 20 years, let alone other rights for women, minorities and tolerance for other religious groups, so...
I used to run to my brother when a child, to handle my fights, i always knew he would stand for me even if i was in the wrong. I remember the day he told me enough is enough, fight your own fights. I no longer depend on other people to fight for me if needed. Israel needs to learn this lesson too.......
Palestine is one long heartbreak since 1948.
The Palestinian people chose to move to Gaza in 1948 thinking the Arab countries would eliminate Israelis but it didn't happen that way did it?
@nextechsolutions5955
Only because They Choose It.
Palestine is a british colonial term. Theres no such people.
There is no Palestine.....
The word Zion occurs over 150 times in the Bible. It essentially means “fortification” and has the idea of being “raised up” as a “monument.” Zion is described both as the city of David and the city of God. As the Bible progresses, the word Zion expands in scope and takes on an additional, spiritual meaning.The word Zion is also used in a theological or spiritual sense in Scripture. In the Old Testament Zion refers figuratively to Israel as the people of God (Isaiah 60:14). In the New Testament, Zion refers to God’s spiritual kingdom. We have not come to Mount Sinai, says the apostle, but “to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem” (Hebrews 12:22). Peter, quoting Isaiah 28:16, refers to Christ as the Cornerstone of Zion: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame” (1 Peter 2:6).
Gross… the IDF 🤮

“Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid" book written by 39th President of USA Jimmy Carter.
The ultimate purpose of his book is to present facts about the Middle East that are largely unknown in America, to help restart peace talks that can lead to permanent peace.
The former president Carter argues that the obstacle to permanent peace in the Middle East is related to the belief of some Israelis that they have the right to confiscate and colonize Palestinian land and try to justify the sustained subjugation and persecution of increasingly hopeless and aggravated Palestinians.
Carter was the second worst president in history behind Biden.
The IDF has no place being in area A of the west bank or in the west bank at all
The PA is pathetic.
Shame on them

More than that. People at Mass have been targeted by military, churches have been bulldozed to make way for settlements, it goes on.

When Al Jazeera applied for a permit to do business in Israel, they had to agree to certain "rules" before their permits were approved. If they are not abiding by said rules, they cannot do business in the country. These are standard operating procedures for ANY country.
Israeli human rights group B’Tselem reported “Since 1967 , Thousands of homes of Palestinians were demolished by Israel. This is part of war crime: The Fourth Geneva Convention prohibits the occupying state from destroying the property of civilians in occupied territory, ”
Homes were usually demolished at night without residents being given any advance warning. The homes destroyed by security forces belonged to Palestinians who were not suspected of any involvement in causing harm to Israeli civilians or security forces. They were given no opportunity to plead their case before any instance and received no compensation for the damage they sustained. This policy of collective punishment inflicted lasting harm on thousands of people.
This policy constitutes collective punishment, which is prohibited and violates binding provisions of international law.
Great reporting. Thank you.

It shows that the West Bank is still occupied !
We managed to get rid of RT. Al Jaziers is closed for a while. With any luck, maybe we'll get rid of other antisemitic, Un-American stations like PBS.
According to you - anyone who criticizes Israel is anti Semitic . FALSE
Al Jazeera Arabic shared a video about IDF vandalizing their office in west bank. Anyone knows what is the goal of this behavior if the team obeyed the law and leave the office.
What about war don't you want to understand?
Atrocious. Also this is Area C which is under PA control. They have no right.
Al jazerra spreading truth!!
How can you close one of the best news media in the world. This is something that America has ignored by the Isreali military.
Reporters from Al Jezeera were actively working with HAMAS and hiding American hostages.
Al Jazeera supports the enemy and is a outlet for the pariah countries Islamic Muslims communist party propaganda
What happened to RT News when the pushed out propaganda? Israel is not the United States. Also, their journalist was one of the people holding a hostage that was rescued during the operation that saved Noa.
I just peed my pants lmao
We get the truth reason want to shut it down our media here in America is not telling us full story only praise Israel and lie for them. Democracy Now gives us both sides and the truth other media does not.
Isreal has every right, to defend itself, from terrorism and others who do not support the protection of the Jewish people in Israel who GOD PROTECTS!

So do Palestinians after years of occupation by Israel, Netanyahu should be ousted.
I guess your god IS US or missile because if there was a god and if god protected Israel, there would be no need for Arms! Are Israelis really that fanatic?!! I thought only ISIS was fanatics but now we learn that almost the whole of Israel is worse than ISIS!
Israel is committing genocide and terrorism in the name of Judaism so Israel to Judaism is like ISIS to Islam, both created (by christians) to ruin 2 of the Ambahamic religions. Divide and conquere I guess ...
They nailed God to a cross. They broke the covenant, so the "protection" no longer applies.

Learn history. Don't divide people. Leave Israel 🇮🇱 alone for your own good. That's all! God bless Israel 🇮🇱 Israel wants peace!
The salient issue is that Israel won't leave anyone alone. If they want peace, they should stop starting all these wars.
They have no right? Stop them, then. Quit whining about it.
Why did Israel that long to shutdown this newspaper, and only for 45 days.
No freedom of the press
To avoid coverage of IOF brutality.
PLEASE INFORM HARRIS AND BIDEN !!!!!!!!

Israeli genocide
Bullshit
You mean genociding journalists by expelling them?
This word genocide means today whatever our ennemy does what we don’t like is called genocide. Criticising Islam == Islamophobia. Criticising Israel and jews == resistance to colialism, Israeli police fining an arab for parking violation == genocide.
Is someone devising an app for these conceptual Islamic festivals.

I have had mixed feelings about this, because every nation should have the right to shutdown any foreign media within their borders; but this Bureau isnt inside Israel. With that said, because they are the only outlet in the area that was able to operate it does give transparency to the situation; considering that Al Jazeera doesnt always portray both sides, only does it more in their english broadcast.

Maybe they shouldn't start all these wars then.
@@La_Hoja_Verde😂 you obviously got your facts wrong. How about Hamas hands over the hostages and Hezbollah quits sending rockets over and pisses off back to Iran and things can settle down? No? That's because the Arabs want to annihilate the Jews and the State of Israel.
Many of us see right through the BS. Maybe when the Arabs love their children more than they hate the Jews, they will too. 🕊️
Israel isn't allowed to silence journalists through outright murder, deliberate mischaracterisation, illegal occupation, and forcible exclusion in violation of international press freedoms.
Nor is the West Bank a part of Israel. Remember it’s not an apartheid. lol. I guess only when it’s convenient for them to claim it when it benefits Israel.
Then maybe they shouldnt be censoring journalists in Area C of the West Bank. This isnt Israel. They shouldn't be occupying any part of the West Bank to begin with.

The whole world is against Netanyahu and as well America's complicity America needs to cut off assistance to Netanyahu. Israel needs to oust Netanyahu.
