Why Has Israel Banned Qatar-owned Al Jazeera? | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Israel has banned Al Jazeera after weeks of standoff between prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Qatar-owned channel. Netanyahu has accused Al Jazeera of endangering Israeli soldiers and acting as a "mouthpiece" of Hamas. Israeli officials raided Al Jazeera's offices in Jerusalem and seized equipment after which the channel's broadcast was stopped. Qatar, which funds Al Jazeera, also funds the Palestinians terror group Hamas. Jewish groups have accused Al Jazeera of anti-semitic reportage and holocaust denial. Recent op-eds and social media posts by Al Jazeera reporters have also praised Hamas for the attack carried out on October 7th. Palki Sharma tells you more.

Time to ban Al Jazeera and BBC in India

[RajuRaju-unmc]

Al Jazeera is ban in Saudi Arabia and UAE not only isreal

[kailashchimbaikar]

Remember at one time Osama bin laden would only release his tapes on Al Jazeera after 9/11

[JohnnyRotten-ufxw]

Al Jazeera talking about democracy is like a snake recommending vegan diets.

[artichokie]

Indian govt also need to ban Al Jaljeera. Their coverage of Kashmir issue is always biased. Sometimes to end biasness you need to cull it instead of calling it out. I support Israel's action here.

[olusegunjuba]

It's simply the truth. AJ is Hamas'mouthpiece.

[ashikbaidya]

India must welcome and do the same bcoz Al Jazeera is not a news agency but an agenda.

[princelifesaving]

ISRAEL did well to cut ALJAZEERA, its way too bias

WHEN INJUSTICE BECOMES LAW, RESISTANCE BECOMES DUTY.
- Thomas Jefferson

Truth is always bitter and disliked

[Nakubetayo]

It was about time, their coverage of the Israeli -Palestinian Conflict is so biased and one sided, favoring Palestine 99% if not 100% of the time

[HumanBeingsRThinkingBeings]

Mind Begs the Question:
- Calling a group of people Rats is Fascist
- Calling a group of people Human Animals is Not Fascist?

[abhia]

Its a needed ban, it always broadcasting Islamists biased reports

[OtterFlys]

Thanks! I would never have guessed it But for the last four years, India has been the most reliable (and sometimes the only) reporter of the facts. Please keep it up!

Al Jazeera also need to ban in India. They are also showing India's distorted map.

[sanjaysanj]
