"If there is outrage to be expressed, it would be that Israel would cynically deploy the trauma of a young woman to try to shield itself from international criticism on the world stage." Continue reading

"The Palestinians have proven without a doubt by enduring 600 days of bombing, a campaign of mass starvation, and 75 years of occupation that they love life and have dreams like you and me. Your article would be more balanced and fairer if you shared their perspectives and their dreams for a future free from occupation, in which they have the right to self determination."

"I urge your newsroom to issue an on-air clarification addressing the unfair and inaccurate nature of this segment, and to commit to more rigorous scrutiny when reporting official narratives from the Israeli military—particularly as Israel’s Prime Minister and former Defense Minister are currently under investigation by the International Criminal Court for war crimes."

That said, I’d like to raise a concern that echoes a point made by Palestinian writer Mohammed El-Kurd, from occupied Jerusalem, in Perfect Victims and the Politics of Appeal.

The purpose of this video is clearly to cast doubt on Palestinian and independent sources and reinforcing the narrative of the occupying power without scrutiny." Continue reading

"I request that you revise this section, rejecting racist language that rationalizes violence against civilians." Continue reading

"The lives of children like Ward and Hind — and of Palestinian women and men — are rarely granted front-page coverage. Their stories are buried, while Israeli narratives dominate the news cycle with urgency and emotion." Continue reading

"This event promoted illegal acts that only rub salt in the wounds of Palestinians suffering here in Toronto and across the country. These “events” had nothing to do with religious worship; the protests were a legitimate response to a meeting supporting an illegal practice. Without this context your article insinuates that the protests were against Jewish people and the Jewish state; in short, antisemitic, which they absolutely were not." Continue reading
