"Fragmentation of Palestinian land, dispossession of land and property, segregation and control of Palestinian movement and placement, and deprivation of their economic & social rights, according to Amnesty International, have sustained the apartheid system and maintained a Jewish demographic majority in Palestine. Zionist militias violently massacaring 15,000 Palestinians, forcibly expelling over 700,000, and destroying 500 Palestinian towns echoes the belief that one’s country, people, religion or race is inherently superior to the group being attacked, to use your language."

"The article quotes a law student who says the Netanyahu’s effigy was 'wearing concentration camp attire.' However, journalist Rachel Lau clarifies that he was actually in 'horizontal black and white prison-like garb,' which is true. Unfortunately, on CJAD 800, it was reported as a fact that Netanyahu was 'wearing black and white concentration camp attire.'" Continue reading

"When one digs deeper and looks at every “anti-Palestinian racism” article published since October 7 (23 results), one will find that in almost every case (15 results), it also mentions “antisemitism” or “anti-Semitism”. This represents a double standard." Continue reading

"CJPME believes the article's one-sided reporting fails to meet the standards of journalistic integrity. It does not address the arrest warrant for Netanyahu for war crimes, including genocide. While the effigy may be a crude form of freedom of expression, it reflects the anger and frustration of those suffering under Israel's siege on Gaza. The absence of this context shows a clear double standard." Continue reading

"Saying that the 'death toll in Gaza has been the subject of significant debate' is disingenuine as it seems to be a talking point relied on by Israel in media outlets, such as a May 12, National Post article: United Nations halves estimate of women and children killed in Gaza, and May 16 Toronto Star article: The death toll in Gaza is enormous. A sudden shift in UN numbers reveals the true count is another source of conflict." Continue reading

"Ms. Mendick's extremely selective framing of her story evokes empathy for the hostages while omitting the fact that there are instances where Israel has killed its own citizens." Continue reading

Mr. Chaudhuri's conscientious choice of precise languageand commitment to providing context to help readers understand the current situation inPalestine. It is essential to recognize that Canadian media often frames Palestinianretaliatory actions as terrorism without providing the underlying realities of Israel’s 75brutal occupation of Palestine, Israel’s blockade of Gaza, and Israel’s illegal settlements inthe occupied West Bank.

"While the National Post has published an endless stream of articles focused on Hamas firing rockets at Tel Aviv which did barely any damage and thousands of articles solely recounting the Israeli perspective of the events on October 7, it is baffling that there has been no mention of the recent massacre of civilians in Rafah today" Continue reading

"This impartiality has no place in our legacy media. The Gazette and La Presse Canadienne are either showing their true colours by parroting the words of an administration that is complicit in genocide, or they are too lazy to send their reporters in Montreal to walk down to UQAM and do basic journalism."
