Fresh off of Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman’s latest calls for a ban on al-Jazeera, the Qatari TV channel has been forced to evacuate its offices in Gaza after Israeli troops fired at them, shooting through the windows of their 11th story office as they were trying to do reporting from the balcony.
Israel has a long history of trying to ban al-Jazeera, and has tried to ban it during several of its recent wars, though such bans rarely stick in the wake of the war when pressed in court.
Israel’s military denied launching any “direct” attacks on al-Jazeera’s offices, but refused to confirm or deny if they had shot the building in the course of firing on other targets.
During Israel’s 2008-09 invasion, as well as its brief 2012 air campaign, Israel’s military repeatedly targeted media outlets perceived as broadcasting unfriendly footage of their conflict.
For Israil to hit Aljazeera Office Building makes u think what r dey tryn to hide by aiming at aljazeera as dey had da view of Gaza frm der and nw dey dont MAKES U THINK!! Wt r dey planning!
Israel learned this one from the US playbook.
Israel cannot tolerate the truth and is doing everything in it's power to stop any criticism of the slaughter of innocents it is perpetrating in Gaza. It is time for the world body to stand up for human rights and use force to stop Israel's war crimes. All of Israel's leaders should be declared war criminals and arrest warrants issued for each and every one of them. Israel is nothing more or less than a terrorist state and a blight on the planet. America must stop funding these criminals and impose an embargo on Israel to isolate this cancer from the civilized world.
Zionism, and the Zionists, are like rats and cockroaches. They cannot stand the light of day, and they cannot let the extent of their infestation of the policy making of our country and our media be exposed. God forbid what the people will do when they finally know. They have sowed the wind. They will reap the whirlwind.
