Israel's military on Friday called for all civilians of Gaza City, more than 1 million people, to relocate south within 24 hours, as it amassed tanks near the Gaza Strip ahead of an expected ground invasion.
Its not the job of journalists to make that kind of judgement call. Only to report the facts on The ground. They have written plenty of articles about what Human Rights Watch, EU politicians, UN has to say on the matter.
The fact that what Israel is doing in Gaza is a war crime is a plain fact according to the international law and the UN. The journalists aren’t being asked to make this judgment, it’s already been made. They’re asked to report the facts which they are not. The fact that you feel the need to try and whitewash this really says volumes.
How am I white washing? I have stated repeatedly in my posts that they are indeed warcrimes. I figured that out impression following mainstream media coverage btw.
No, you are only trying to advance a case for all mainstream media being propaganda, blindly, without actually watching or criticizing it. This is ideological, and while it is an effective critique of the modern media landscape, you are using it to lie about the nature of the reporting.
You’ve just wrote a whole post rationalizing why western media doesn’t call war crimes what they are. Weird how these same media outlets have no problems applying such terms in Ukraine. The only one lying here is you bud.
Except that when you go back and look at the reporting from an outlet like CNN about Ukraine, that is not true. Sure - there are plenty of reports on how the ICC, and the US and the Ukraine govt. have said that. It’s despicable that various US government figures aren’t condemning this carpet bombing campaign. But CNN does adhere to at least a little bit of the basics of journalistic integrity - not by much mind you.
Show me where CNN says what’s happening in Gaza is a war crime and condemning Israel over it?

If you genuinely don’t see the difference between how the media covers Ukraine and Palestine, then really don’t know what else to say to you.
