Al Jazeera office raided as Israel takes channel off air
The network denies being a threat to security, and says Israel wants "to cover up its crimes".

And the fascism grows.
This puts the Israeli fascists one step closer to the Nazi government from 1933-1945 in Germany
only democracy in the middle east BTW
Israel is definitely want to cover up their crimes.
Well obviously Hamas was hiding there /s
There was a Hamas base in the green room.
go go nazisrael. all hail hitleryahuu
I mean did they even condemn Hamas?
They reported on Hamas Attacks in a fairly standard news style when they attacked. Israel has killed at least 25x more civilians then Hamas i would expect slightly different reporting based on that at this stage.

Did any news organization personally condemn the attack? Because their job is to report the news, and they did that. And journalists have more to fear from Israel than Hamas if we are going by numbers. See
But they won't be able to do any local reporting anymore, at least not easily.
I thought their website was (will be?) blocked in Israel too?
They only took down the TV channel. I don’t know what usage statistics are like, but I suspect the website was already quite used.
To clarify my previous comment, this doesn’t mean that the Israeli government’s actions aren’t fascistic in nature, or concerning for the future. Just that their chosen course of operation in this specific case is ineffective. At worst it’s an inconvenience.
I'll go against the grain and say it's fine for Isreal to remove al Jazeera because they are in an ongoing war. It's common to remove certain "news" outlets during war and al Jazeera's coverage of this conflict makes fox news look like a bastion of truth.
Isreal still has access to plenty of new outlets that report negatively on the conflict and scrutinize the government.
Tf is wrong with you? Do you even read Al Jazeera? It has been like the most trustworthy organization covering this genocide.
They're not censoring it for lying, but for telling the truth.
This shit is just insane.
If they weren't committing a genocide, then I would agree that THIS is insane, but this is just casual Sunday for current Israel's government.
