Help Mohammad document settler attacks in West Bank
Israel has recently announced new measures that allow it to steal more Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank. Check out how this was covered in Israeli media vs US media.
Can you guess which is more honest in its coverage?
First, Israeli media writes this:
They explain that the Cabinet intends to further their annexation, or theft, of Palestinian land, which is at least honest in its intention.
In contrast, here’s the New York Times:
Israel gives itself more control over occupied West Bank?? We’ve never seen this euphemism for theft before. It seems the subservient New York Times has become more creative than ever in its linguistic gymnastics to avoid any legitimate coverage of Israeli crimes.
Reminds us of the classic from 2014 when a missile, seemingly shot by no one, ‘found’ Gazan civilians watching the World Cup:
To check in on how things are going for the Palestinians who live in the land that Israel is giving itself more control over, we’re speaking with Mohammad Hesham Huraini, an independent journalist from Masafer Yatta, the same West Bank community depicted in the 2025 Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land.
We ask Mohammad: did winning the Oscar have any benefit for your community? With one of the directors already murdered by settlers and the rest facing constant threats of terror, his answer is depressing.
Please share this interview to get Mohammad’s reporting out to the world. Thanks for supporting independent media, join our community here:
