Mainstream media goes ahead with its war of information aimed at disinforming the people in the West over the reality of the Israeli genocide which lasted for more than 15 months in Gaza.
An operation which killed few hundreds of Israeli colonizers (many of them were killed by their own army) on October 7, 2023, justifies the brutal killing or injuring of more than 146,000 people in Gaza! That’s the equation by the mainstream media.
However, many activists, including Palestinians with dual nationalities, counter such propaganda. Palestinian-British surgeon Dr. Ghassan Bu Sitta appeared via Sky News on Sunday, just few hours after the ceasefire in Gaza took effect.
He lashed out at the pro-Israeli narrative propagated by mainstream media.
“The UK media refers to Israelis as ‘hostages’, while to Palestinians illegally held by Israel, including children, as ‘prisoners’.”
When asked by the Sky News host: “Do you wish [Oct 7] had never happened?”, he gave her a rocket by saying: “I wish 1948 had never happened.”

He stressed, meanwhile, that the “racialized othering of Palestinians is what has allowed the genocide to take place for 15 months.”
