The Israeli Defense Forces on Sunday accused a prominent journalist– who in recent months has reported regularly for Al Jazeera from Gaza – of moonlighting as a senior Hamas commander.

The Israeli Defense Forces have published photos they say were discovered on a laptop in Gaza that show Al Jazeera journalist Mohamed Washah engaged in Hamas terrorist activities.

Neither Al Jazeera nor the Qatari government have responded to the Sun’s request for comment.

    supposing a modern nation state with a capable intelligence and military apparatus is capable of and motivated to lie isn’t an antisemetic trope.

        > claiming a Jew does just because they are a Jew, yes, that is antisemitic.

            You must be reading into something that isn’t there. You might be a little biased dude. Take a step back.

        >Capability plus motivation does not equal guilt.

        of course not, but it is good reason to be suspicious of any claims and demand evidence.

                having a policy of disbelieving accusations until proven beyond a reasonable doubt is how i was brought up

                distrusting the government is as american as apple pie

                    How many claims from Hamas do you distrust? I’d assume most of them, right? Is it just because you’re cynical?
