Trevor Noah slammed for suggesting Israel not defend itself: 'You're downplaying the trauma of millions'

[Grant]

Is Hamas evicting Israelis from their homes?

Really? When the IDF arrested a reporter on Saturday in Sheikh Jarrah and released her on the condition that she doesn't return to the area for 15 days? Freedom of expression and movement right there.

Of freedom of expression: How about posting one or two pro Israel protests that have taken place in Gaza

Article

I would have thought you would take exception to journalists being used as state puppets considering how you seem to have issues with any article which absolves or paints Israel in a good light.

Or is it just that it's all good when Al'Jazeera are reporting favorably on certain topics? Are you happy to be lied to by the media even if they are telling you what you want to hear?

You're missing the entire point. I can say BBC, CNN or Sky or anyone else is biased too. The issue is that you can't just go willy nilly and start arresting reporters.

Course you can... and why stop at arrest when you can add torture...

@Sollie

Lot of woulds and coulds. Can't deal with what the IDF is doing?

What the IDF is doing in retaliation to what Hamas is doing.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

Really? When the IDF arrested a reporter on Saturday in Sheikh Jarrah and released her on the condition that she doesn't return to the area for 15 days? Freedom of expression and movement right there.

One reporter. How many pro Israeli reporters allowed in Gaza?

And answer the request by posting a pro Israel protest video in Gaza please to prove the freedom of speech allowed in Gaza.

 

[Cosmik Debris]

Maybe any kind of media reporting is being suppressed? I'm seeing a lot of maybes, coulds and woulds lately.


Nice that you bring this up. Here's 2 (victims) residents of Shiekh Jarrah that are currently posting the atrocities that is happening there. What happens? They get arrested on some silly charges and have to be released as there is nothing of substance to the charges. Coming back to media suppression.

Any reports about what happens to anyone that dares oppose Hamas in Gaza?

 

[Cosmik Debris]

It's difficult to have an opinion either way as many journalist are acting as activists which feul the riots.

The exact problem with journalists today. They see themselves as activists instead of unbiased reporters and then wonder why their credibility is damaged.

So, how many pro Israel reporters in Gaza? Would they be arrested if the tried what reporters try in Israel?

One reporter. How many pro Israeli reporters allowed in Gaza?

And answer the request by posting a pro Israel protest video in Gaza please to prove the freedom of speech allowed in Gaza.

Lol. Leave pro Israel - how many pro Palestine journalists in Gaza? It is such big hassle for residents to come and go to their own homes, you can imagine how difficult it is for outsiders.

Edut: again with the could and woulds. Can we deal with with facts and not assumptions?

Then why hasn't Hamas got a clean record either if you want to claim the moral high ground for them and just point out Israeli activities?

Stop making excuses and answer the question:

How many pro Israel reporters are there in Gaza? Why no freedom of movement for them guaranteed by Hamas?

 

[Caliph]

Then why hasn't Hamas got a clean record either if you want to claim the moral high ground for them and just point out Israeli activities?

Nobody ever claimed (certainly not me) in these threads that 'Hamas has got a clean record'. Nor did I infer/claim the moral high ground on their side.

 

[Caliph]

Stop making excuses and answer the question:

Errr I don't know? Wait, let me go check quickly. What kind of absurd question is this?

It's got nothing to do with credibility.

Did she stand on the sidelines and report or was she part of the riot, even a ringleader instigators and therefore arrested?

If she stood on the sidelines she should be able to film and write whatever bias nonsense she wants.
