The Israeli Defense Forces on Sunday accused a prominent journalist– who in recent months has reported regularly for Al Jazeera from Gaza – of moonlighting as a senior Hamas commander.

The Israeli Defense Forces have published photos they say were discovered on a laptop in Gaza that show Al Jazeera journalist Mohamed Washah engaged in Hamas terrorist activities.

Neither Al Jazeera nor the Qatari government have responded to the Sun’s request for comment.

      If the UNRWA story is anything to go by, they don’t even bother with the evidence part.

        No, they “found” a laptop. If I were guessing, if it exists at all, it was planted by the IDF or Mossad. More likely, the Israeli government are lying through their teeth.

          Because terrorists take pictures of all their secret activities. Wouldn’t surprise me if the IDF generated them with AI or something.

            Terrorist use the media as a military tool, so they the do take pictures of their activities. Not all of them, but they do.

            Just because you’re one doesn’t mean all are.

            Most white people are OK, but 10-20% are idiot racists. Most black people are OK, but 10-20% of them are idiot racists. Most Palestinians are OK, but 10-20% of the are idiot racists. Most Jews are OK, but 10-20% of them are idiot racists.

            See how it doesn’t matter what the color of your skin, or what the name or your God is? You might just be a fucking idiotic racist because it’s pretty consistent that they exist in all cultures and racists will try to paint entire ethncitys as completely homogeneous with everyone thinking the exact same thoughts.

            Lump yourself with idiot racists, not your ethnicity, because you belong with one much more than the other.

            supposing a modern nation state with a capable intelligence and military apparatus is capable of and motivated to lie isn’t an antisemetic trope.

        Conservatives will only see articles critical of conservatives as being evidence that the author is their enemy. The author’s laptop would be used in this way.

        A conservative is incapable of honesty. Every word uttered by a conservative is either deception or manipulation. Every word. When a conservative accuses a journalist of a crime, they are lying. Every time.
