Western media coverage of the Ukraine war versus coverage of Israeli genocide in Gaza
On today’s News Review program of Press TV, the Iranian English-language international broadcaster, I joined journalist and political analyst Julia Kassem in Beirut for a discussion that opened with Israeli attacks on health facilities in Gaza but moved on to the broader issue of Israel’s planned ‘final solution’ of their Palestinian problem through mass expulsions to Sinai.
I was especially appreciative of the opportunity to compare Western media coverage of the Israeli atrocities in Gaza with their coverage of (or total silence about) Ukrainian atrocities against Donbas civilians from 2014 right up to the present day.
