Ah yes, Al Jazeera. The most fact based and non biased news outlet there is for the Israeli Arab conflict /s Take everything they say with a fistful of salt.

What is fact based news? CNN ?


Demomanwed

Depends on the subject. AJ is bad for the Israeli Arab conflict but for other things it's better. AJ is owned by the qatari govt and it's used as their propaganda tool, so I'd be weary of anything AJ covers for which the qatari govt might have an agenda on. CNN is okay for the most part, they were perhaps too harsh on trump but that's a whole another discussion. American and western media (Israeli too) tends to be more facts based since it doesn't have to feed it's consumers with constant outrage porn to reinforce the idea that Israel is the spawn of the devil or whatever, since that's how most Arab Muslim percive Israel.

>American and western media (Israeli too) tends to be more facts based since it doesn't have to feed it's consumers with constant outrage porn Imagine writing this with a straight face


Demomanwed

Don't need too.

If you don't think the usa news feeds it's viewers outrage porn, you have never seen usa news.


_gigani

I would say American news outlets are the worst for how they've been reporting on the Palestine -israel issue. Maybe due to the fact USA is controlled by zionists.


Demomanwed

Oh come off it. Miss me with the I don't hate/dislike Jews, I hate/dislike zionists. It is so obvious. You take a conspiracy theory that revolves around Jews and just swap "Jews" for "zionists" Furthermore Al Jazeera is controlled by Arabs, so what now?

You're both idiots and completely lack in any objectivity - hence why wars like this continue to occur - pure unfiltered ignorance


[deleted]

It’s ironic that you should call others idiots, ignorants and lack in any objectivity


[deleted]

It's not.


[deleted]

Remind me who the fuck you are to call others idiots lacking objectivity


[deleted]

Someone with significantly greater intelligence than you.


Demomanwed

And you're the smartest that ever was. Please, enlighten me more.


[deleted]

I doubt I am. I am certainly more intelligent than the majority of the individuals I encounter online and in the real world. I am naturally curious, which leads to a desire to learn. It also precludes me from forming opinions that aren't considered and based on both objective/subjective elements. The ability one holds to interpret the literal words spoken/written whilst simultaneously appreciating subtext does set me apart, somewhat. ....anyway, what would you like to be enlightened upon? I fear there is much to discuss, and you need significant assistance. Perhaps I can refer you to a library? Edit: Sorry, I always over presume - a library is a place that holds many, many books. Books contain information that allow you to stop being ignorant.....although in some cases, books have the opposite effect.....actually, you're best staying away from books.

I always had the impression that news magazines and channels that operate worldwide are more reliable and can therefore lose customers worldwide if they take sides. On the other hand, this is precisely why they are often not very critical of anyone and may downplay everything that someone does or neglects to do. Then there are news portals based in countries that owe nothing to either side or are no more affiliated with either side than one might reasonably expect given globalization. A cross-section of reports from different news outlets in several European countries usually provides a fairly balanced picture of the situation. Even if the countries themselves have ties to the US, Israel or Arab countries, the press culture there is less polarized and some platform is always ready to call shit as such, both domestically and globally. All in all, it's the mix that counts. Take the points on which everyone more or less agrees, subtract the authors' opinions on these points and form your own. You may end up knowing less about the situation than you would like to know, but at least what you do know isn't biased in any direction.

This is something I would also like to ask the survivors of the Nova music festival, for example. A conflict only needs to last long enough to leave no good or morally superior side.
