Israeli TV covering what UK media will not
The media in Israel continue to cover what the UK media will not. It is common knowledge now in Israel that the country’s own forces killed an ‘immense’ number of its own citizens on 7 October last year, that its government officials and even TV presenters openly make genocidal statements about the Palestinians, that the International Criminal Court is considering warrants for the arrest of senior Israeli government figures – and even that the Israeli government knew the 7 October raid plan in detail weeks before it took place.
And now, Israeli Channel 7 has interviewed reserve general Itzhak Brik, who says that in talking every day with front-line troops, Israel’s occupation forces are losing against Hamas and other resistance groups – and that the army command and the Israeli government are lying to their people, claiming victories against the resistance forces that simply did not take place:
Despite this – which is far from the first admission that Israel is losing its genocidal ‘war’ against Palestinians – the UK ‘mainstream’ media remain stubbornly silent on the matter, as it has largely done on every development that has exposed Israel’s crimes, including the findings of the United Nations and its courts at the Hague of Israel’s war crimes and genocide and their orders, which Israel has ignored, to cease its operations in Gaza. And while the UK media collude with silence, both leaders of the UK’s two biggest political parties continue to support the genocide.
