      Yep, it’ll keep popping up, like the beheaded babies story. Not sure why they feel the need to lie like that, the stuff that Hamas had been confirmed to have done was bad enough.

        You know why they feel the need to lie like that: to justify their genocide of the Palestinian people. This is what Zionists always wanted, now they just have a pretense.

        Just like the hospital strike the was falsely blamed at Israel with an inflated death count. No amount of redactions has stopped people from still claiming that as the truth.

    And it should be noted that their retraction statement doesn’t even mention or detail what the article is in question or what it was about. So still trying to hide their failures even to the end.

    Thank goodness Twitter still has Community Notes by users (for now, since Elon wants it removed because it keeps correcting his lies).

    Even if one of the 15000 killed Palestinians was a doll, doesn’t change the fact that Israel response is completely disproportionate as it’s targeting civilians instead of the terrorists

    Yeah, I’m not trusting what the JP puts out, just like I’m not trusting aljazerra right now.

    Both have a serious bias and cannot be trusted without vetting other sources.

      Aljazeera has been very factual in the conflict. Probably the most factual out of any English-speaking news source since all the others are too afraid to call out real genocide and terrorism and their articles are clouded with double standard wording.

      Get out of here with your “both sides” nonsense.

        It should be noted that there is Al-Jazeera English, which is credible and good, and then Al-Jazeera which… well, isn’t so much. They are two different companies run by two different sets of people, basically. They do not run the same articles generally. Similarly, American mainstream media reporting is generally pretty accurate about stuff in other parts of the world (when it’s not a war article) but when reporting about things here it can get murky.

            correct, the guy I’m replying to said Al-Jazeera English but the OP just said Al-Jazeera. I think it’s important that more people are aware there is the Western Al-Jazeera (English) which has pretty solid reporting, and regular Al-Jazeera which is the paper all the articles were about recently where (one of) the journalists who were targeted with a strike worked for as it was pushing pro-Hamas stuff… obviously any attacking of the press is not OK. the point of my mentioning it was people should know that Al-Jazeera English isn’t pushing a bunch of pro-Hamas articles. that it’s Al-Jazeera that’s had a lot of bad press lately, not Al-Jazeera English which is still solid.

      Al Jazeera is infinitely more trustworthy. It’s also the least sanitised news source.
