    Please not MBFC is biased garbage.

    MBFC’s biggest criticism of Al Jazeera?

    Al Jazeera also has an opinion page that exhibits significant bias against Israel. In this article, the author uses highly negative emotional words as evidenced by this quote: “Europe is increasingly sharing Israel’s racist approach to border security and adopting its deadly technologies.” This article, however, is properly sourced from credible media outlets. Another article, “How many more ways can Israel sentence Palestinians to death?” also uses loaded language that is negative toward Israel. Further, the opinion page does not favor US President Donald Trump through this article: ‘Barbed wire-plus‘: Borders know no love. In general, opinion pieces are routinely biased against Israel and right-wing ideologies.

    MBFC only approves IDF mouthpieces.

      I… I just can’t even understand how you thought posting that was a good idea.

        The Opinion section of a newspaper should not be accounted in how “Factual” the reporting of a news agency is. I’m not sure why that would even be relevant…

          The opinion section reveals the bias of the author and if that author writes news articles, guess what, that bias transfers. Ones biases do not simply vanish on a whim.

        Because I have a brain and understand being critical of Israel is not a detriment to a newspaper.

          As a perfect example, your obvious bias strongly influences readers evaluation of your opinion. Guess what mine is.

              What genocide? I don’t recall the ICJ ruling there was a genocide in Israel. Oh wait, perhaps that is because I’m not biased.

            Witness how, yet again, these types play their cute little games dancing around the question, never addressing the core issue that they themselves spout as some kind of grand “gotcha”.

            Israel is committing state sponsored genocide on the Palestinian people.

            We will remember you as the collaborator you are.
