From the title of the article in Rai al-Youm by Abdul Razzaq Bani Hani , we knew where it would go.
Already in the second paragraph:

According to the historical records I have reviewed, some Jewish-Zionist politicians managed to infiltrate European systems under the guise of taqiyya, which in this context is a display of Christian religiosity, while concealing Jewish-Zionist ideology. Examples include the economic thinker David Ricardo, whose ideas prevailed during the Napoleonic era and Napoleon's defeat at Waterloo in 1815, and Benjamin Disraeli, who became British Prime Minister from 1876 to 1880, the same preparatory period that preceded the Basel Zionist Conference in 1897.
Marx was a Zionist. So was Mao:
Karl Marx, who was of pure Jewish origins, hated the Ottoman Empire and strongly advocated its dismantling, considering it a reactionary state based on Islamic foundations, even if they were simple.
In less than seven decades, Marx's followers, such as Lenin, Trotsky, and their comrades, were able to establish the world's largest state, geographically speaking, occupying nearly a quarter of the globe's land area. They were able to subjugate the Islamic countries of Central Asia, the cradle of al-Bukhari and al-Khwarizmi, and destroy the culture of their peoples, transforming them into peoples devoid of a historical identity, as they had been in the decades prior to the founding of the Soviet Union. In this context, we must not forget that Mao Zedong, the inspiration behind the Chinese revolution that established Greater China, was a brilliant student of the school of Marx and Lenin, both of Jewish-Zionist origin.
And by the end, it is almost parody:
Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, the current president of Mexico, comes from a Zionist-Jewish family. Although she governs as a secular left-wing politician, her background is rooted in the Zionist-Jewish heritage.

Sheinbaum is descended from Zionist-Jewish parents. Her father is of Ashkenazi descent, whose family immigrated from Lithuania, and her mother is of Sephardic descent, whose family originated in Bulgaria. Sheinbaum has not publicly emphasized her Zionist-Jewish identity during her political career, as it conflicts with the Catholic faith of the majority of the Mexican people.

Brigitte Macron (wife of the French President), Akshata Murthy (wife of the former British Prime Minister), and Victoria Starma (wife of the current British Prime Minister): All of them are of Zionist-Jewish origin. Brigitte Macron is the granddaughter of Rothschild, who gave millions to the British government, during the Balfour era, to support the establishment of the Zionist state in occupied Palestine. Akshata Murthy is a Zionist-Jew of Indian origin, who hates Muslims. The Akshata Murthy family company invests in the Zionist entity in occupied Palestine. This is a recorded and announced fact
Like Queen Esther, these Jewish women marry Western leaders and turn them Zionist. 

This is mainstream thinking in the Arab world. And it is spreading.

PROTOCOLS: Exposing Modern Antisemitism (February 2022)

   
 

 

From the International Federation of Journalists:
In an unprecedented global action, almost 200 media outlets from 50 countries will simultaneously disrupt their front pages, homepages, and broadcasts to demand an end to the killing of journalists in Gaza and to call for international press access to the enclave. 

For the first time in modern history, newsrooms across every continent will coordinate a large-scale editorial protest. The action - coordinated by Reporters Without Borders (RSF), the global campaigning movement Avaaz and the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) - will take place on Monday, September 1. Print newspapers will run blacked-out front pages carrying a stark message. Broadcasters and radio stations will pause programming with a joint statement. Online outlets will black out their homepages or banners in solidarity. Editors, reporters and other journalists are also taking part too. 

We are seeing newspapers putting this protest advertisement as a front page story with the identical graphic.


This is profoundly unethical. 

The front page of a newspaper is assumed to be where the top news stories are. In rare circumstances, a newspaper can put an op-ed as its top story. But this is not an op-ed - it is coordinated activism, using the newspapers as a medium.

Any other activists would have to purchase advertising space in newspapers to get such a message across. Here, journalists are taking advantage of their own medium to be used for something that goes against all journalistic ethics - taking up room normally used for legitimate news or editorial opinion with a coordinated activist campaign.

If they were ethical, they would purchase full page ads like any other group. Using precious news space for an activist campaign is  perverting the very medium they work for. 

By its nature, editorials are the opinion of the news source itself. People want to read which candidates their local papers endorse, for example. But in this case, the opinions are coming from a central activist framework. A newspaper that signs on has no independence in this matter.

This is problematic, because the message says that Israel is targeting journalists as journalists, which is a lie.

But the worst part is that this activist push it being promoted by the IFJ, which supposedly enforces journalistic ethics. This coordinated campaign goes against the ethics of the organization that created the standard on ethics. 

The campaign violates a number of sections in the IFJ Global Charter of Ethics for Journalists, like avoiding distortion of facts and unfounded accusations. But the most egregious part being violated on is Article 13:

[The journalist] will avoid any confusion between his activity and that of advertising or propaganda. 

This campaign meant to deliberately do exactly what their ethics prohibits. No matter how sympathetic one may be towards journalists concerned over the safety of their colleagues, it does not justify changing a news site into a megaphone for propaganda. Journalism must not favor journalists. 

We know that in recent decades the journalism profession has been blurring the lines between news, opinion and activism.  But journalists always at least maintained the pretense of holding up ethical standards. When the IFJ itself promotes activism on the news pages, and hundreds of media outlets sign up for it, that means that even the pretext of journalistic ethics has been shredded. 

I once created a reference architecture for what journalistic ethics rules should look like. It goes way beyond any existing standards, and this campaign would violate it in a number of ways. Importantly, no self respecting journalist can argue that my code is wrong - it respects journalism even more than the IFJ ethics charter does by demanding excellence and clear boundaries. 

This is not about Israel or bias or journalists blurring lines. This is about the collapse of the entire journalism industry, promoted by the very people who should be defending it the most. And that should frighten you.

Yesterday I highlighted how incredible the Israeli raid on Yemen last week was.

The New York times was not impressed. It sniffed:
The Houthi militia of Yemen has vowed to strike back after an Israeli attack killed senior members of the group’s government but appeared to leave its military leadership largely untouched.
See? It was no big deal!

In fact, the only possible thing Israel accomplished was radicalizing the Houthis further: As their "expert" Farea al-Muslimi, a Yemeni research fellow at Chatham House, said:
The death of the Yemeni officials, among them pragmatists tied to Yemen’s former leadership rather than Houthi ideologues, could result in more hawkishness and extremism going forward, Mr. al-Muslimi said.
Hmmm. The Houthi flag already says "Death to Israel" and "Curse the Jews." 


How, exactly, are they going to get more "hawkish"?

Another "expert" told us something completely new:
“Abdul-Malik found his match in Netanyahu,” said Mohammed al-Basha, a U.S.-based analyst focused on Yemen. “They’re both stubborn. They both have religious fervor and ideology that’s very strong.”
Yes, Netanyahu has religious fervor. Who knew?

The New York Times sure knows how to pick their experts.
