Qatari news network Al Jazeera is stridently denying any link to Gaza-based journalist Abdallah Aljamal, amid unverified rumors that hostage Noa Argamani had been held at his home in central Gaza’s Nuseirat.

According to various rumors, some of which have been picked up by Hebrew-language media with varying levels of credulity, Argamani was held at the home of Dr. Ahmed Aljamal and his son Abdallah. They also claim that Abdallah is an employee of Al-Jazeera.

    Nobody is saying Hamas isn’t using civilians as human shields, they’re just saying that it doesn’t justify bombing civilians…

      Hamas isn’t using civilians as human shields. At least, not at scale. Israel and its western co-conspirators manufacture evidence to use to justify the genocide, but none of that evidence is concrete. It’s just intelligence people making baseless claims.

        Don’t let terrorists live in your home. Leave if you have to.

        I’m sure that would have been very easy for the well over 10,000 children who have been killed. Especially the babies.

        I have said this multiple times and I will continue to say it- if you have to kill thousands of children in the name of protecting your nation, maybe your nation isn’t worth protecting.

          if you have to kill thousands of children in the name of protecting your nation, maybe your nation isn’t worth protecting.

          Ironically, nearly every major nation in existence has done this at some point in their history. The world is a fucked up place.

              On one hand I can sympathize with that sentiment, on the other hand, I can’t imagine the horrors that would have occurred if the Axis powers had been allowed to conquer the world.

        How many terrorists have to be at the table? Itamar Ben-Gvir is a convicted terrorist. Should the cabinet adjourn every time a Kehanist or two shows up? Or does it require a 5/6 ratio before guilt by association kicks in?

          Going along with this thought…

          Does the setting matter?

          Like if I allow or invite one terrorist to live with me, is that the same as regularly attending a governmental meeting with one?

        Thanks for this, I’ve kind of stepped away from the news cycle as of recent to focus on school, etc. I genuinely was not aware of this.
