"It is oddly well-timed knowing that, since October 7, Israel has killed 152 UNWRA employees and damaged 146 UNRWA installations and that ICJ ruled that genocide in Gaza is ‘plausible’ and that it must allow more humanitarian aid into Gaza."
Read moreOne-sided radio segment conflates antizionism with antisemitism
"It is disappointing that this radio segment took this opportunity to attack and discredit Kiana Lede and not discuss why she was wearing a Keffiyeh patterned cardigan.

Read moreOne-sided article engages in anti-Palestinian narrative
