Israel’s Government Press Office has reconsidered its decision to implement sanctions against Al Jazeera’s Jerusalem bureau following the station’s incitement and dishonest coverage of Israel.
HonestReporting’s Managing Editor Simon Plosker and former Director of the Israeli Government Press Office, Daniel Seaman discussed this in a live Facebook discussion.
Should Israel expel Al Jazeera or would this represent an attack on freedom of the press? Seaman argues that Al Jazeera is a Qatari-sponsored tool of the Muslim Brotherhood and therefore represents a security threat to Israel. Watch the video below.
