Israel’s government has moved to shut down the operations of the Al Jazeera television network in the country, branding it a mouthpiece for Hamas.

Hours after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the cabinet agreed to the closure, police raided the broadcaster’s office in Jerusalem on Sunday.

The broadcaster, which is headquartered in Qatar, called claims it was a threat to Israeli security a “dangerous and ridiculous lie”.

  7. BBC has p@rasitically made money off pedophilia for decades with Jimmy Saville, let him even claim expenses on rape-trips. NOBODY charged BBC ion crimes then. and nobody is charging them with complicity in genocide today. Yet, they still make money off Saville 50 years on, and will continue to make money off entire countries colonised and tortured every day until the devil will take them. But then again, the devil retired and apologised to God when Satanyahu was born.

  8. YouTube tis erasing forever channels that speak up against Palestine. YT belongs to google, and they look to impose dicktat@rsh^ts upon us. Google prioritises pro-Israel searches, Fox News come upon first on both YT and google searches alike, meanwhile channels dedicated to spread hatred against brown skinned people and any other religion other than white catholicism and white judaism are still there, all of them. How is it possible that YT has never block channels like Ben Shapiro's channel but is blocking people from simply posting comments in support of Palestine and against genocide??? And this so called BBC 'report' is exhibit A.
