The Media Accountability Project  

I appreciate that the Associated Press, and by extension CBC News, reported on Israel’s approval of 764 additional housing units in three illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank. We are seeing increased coverage of Israel’s illegal settlement expansion in the West Bank, and it is coverage we have not seen at this level before.

"Peace cannot be a transaction or a temporary arrangement; it needs to be built on international consensus and legitimacy, moving it from managing the conflict to ending it. Western governments are complicit in consistently shielding Israel from accountability at the United Nations and by providing arms and funding.  Canada stopping their military and diplomatic support of Israel would be a step in the right direction."
