"You could have interviewed representatives from organizations such as the Assembly of First Nations, Independent Jewish Voices, Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East (CJPME) or the National Council of Canadian Muslims.

"However, I especially appreciated the background information Panetta provided about far-right Israeli figures Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich, which we don’t normally expect to be covered in the media, which is not fair. I think it gave the readers a clear idea of who is running Israel and how it is an obstacle to the prospect of a just and lasting peace or Palestinian state." Continue reading

"Mr. East also founded the Israeli Canadian Council, which you mention, but it is hardly legitimate. Its inactivity is notable, and its website boasts $0 of total fundraising.

It is a misinterpretation of these protests that are essentially calling for a ceasefire and respect for Palestinian human rights. There are no calls for blood or war and threats in these protests."

"If you are going to essentially profile Mr. East and provide a platform to express his perspective of events, you ought to report a full, fair, and balanced picture of who he is. This is not the first time CBC Manitoba has written on Mr. East, and thus far, it has failed to provide meaningful context about his work." Continue reading

"I liked the recognition you gave to Plestia Alaquad, Motaz Azaiza, and Bian Owda for their reporting on Gaza, that doesn’t fall short of bravery." Continue reading
