Having friends in Lebanon, I feel obligated to check the channels for updates. It’s true. Reuters is complicit for framing it this way
The past few years there was a great “purge” of journalists that were publicly against the genocide with the excuse that the news outlets needed to stay independent (this was at Reuters and AP news). Because being against genocide is equated with supporting Hamas.
But while those who protested the genocide were fired, those supporting the genocide were simply supporting a country against terrorism, and so they remained.
And you can see how apparent that is in the language used by most media outlets.
Not just the past few years, since the invention of Israel, all the biggest news agencies purge staff reporting on them every few years

“Neutral” is when you don’t say anything bad about the home team and you don’t say anything good about the away team.
Until the rest of the world steps up and stops Israel then they will continue down the Nazi path they have chosen. They will not stop unless made to. It is simple as that. I wish the US could help but we are dealing with our own Nazi hell.
The rest of the world doesn’t have the bombs, and even if they did, the people of the rest of the world aren’t genocidal maniacs so it’s hard to put an end to Western imperialism.
