"It is therefore entirely appropriate, and indeed necessary, for Global National to have reported on the impact of Israel’s judicial changes on Palestinians under Israeli rule. This reporting should necessarily include the impact on the 1.6 million Palestinians who hold second-class Israeli citizenship, as well as the 5.2 million Palestinians under Israeli military occupation in East Jerusalem, the West Bank, and Gaza."

"The article should state that Ben-Gvir is the leader of Otzma Yehudit (Jewish Power), a far-right and racist party with origins in Kahanism, a fascist and terroristic movement which calls for the expulsion of Palestinians from Israel." Continue reading

"Failing to describe these actions by the Israeli military as “military raids” also obscures and takes away from the significance of Palestinian suffering due to these near-nightly operations." Continue reading

"As your headline indicates the ‘ripple’ effects of the judicial overhaul are significant. They impact everyone living within Israel and the occupied Palestinian territory; as well as Israel’s economy and their relationship with the United States." Continue reading

"I urge you to update this article, either removing the description of Hamas as an 'Islamist militant group', and/or to add that Hamas 'governs the Gaza Strip, providing social services and running media outlets'." Continue reading

"The segment mentions in depth the current events regarding the judicial reform bill and its ramifications. What I feel is inaccurate is the mention and classification of Israel as a democracy without taking into account the millions of Palestinians who are living in what is now widely recognized as an apartheid system; Israel’s democracy only applies to Israeli citizens." Continue reading

"Your description of a “clash” obscures the Israeli military’s role in provoking the confrontation between stone throwers and heavily armed soldiers. The Israeli military uses sophisticated weapons and equipment whereas the Palestinians, as mentioned in your own coverage, were throwing stones. Your coverage obscures and downplays the asymmetrical nature of the violence." Continue reading
