TEHRAN (Iran News) – The Zionists have stepped up their crimes in recent days and they continue killing Palestinians and even they do not spare murdering journalists who try to reveal the true picture of them amid the silence of the international bodies and this time they killed one of the prominent journalist of Qatar’s Aljazeera’s News channel.
Shireen Abu Akleh, a longtime TV correspondent for Al Jazeera Arabic, was killed on Wednesday after being shot in the head while covering the Israeli army’s raids in the city of Jenin in the northern occupied West Bank.
Shatha Hanaysha, another Palestinian journalist who was with Abu Akleh when she was murdered, asserted the incident was a “deliberate attempt” by Israeli forces to kill the journalists.
Of course this is not the first time that the Zionist forces have shown their true nature to the media but this time they have no excuse but trying to silence anyone who wanted to reveal their nature to the world.
Some 230 international rights organizations and networks strongly condemned the killing of veteran Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank, calling for the regime in Tel Aviv to be held accountable for the brutal crime.
The Palestinian Ma’an news agency said the 229 signatories affirmed in a statement that the Israeli occupation forces’ targeting of the Palestinian journalist was a “deliberate and premeditated act and a full-fledged assassination operation.”
But so far, Reporters Without Borders has been silent regarding this murder by the Israeli forces and now its independence has been questioned because of this passive attitude.
Reporters Without Borders is an international non-profit and non-governmental organization with the stated aim of safeguarding the right to freedom of information. It describes its advocacy as founded on the belief that everyone requires access to the news and information, in line with Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that recognizes the right to receive and share information regardless of frontiers, along with other international rights charters.
But it seems someone should awaken this organization to react to this brutal savagery of the Zionists against one of the prominent Palestinian journalists. We have once and again seen that this organization takes stand against suppressing media and journalist in the countries but it seems they just take stand whenever they want and against some certain countries like Russia, China or any other country that this organization is at odd with them.
This murder once again revealed the true nature of Israeli regime and showed the world it should not pity this criminal regime in case its forces are attacked. Some Western countries have tried to condemn this murder but they have not shown any courage to directly point their fingers at Israel as the main culprit. Of course it is not strange because everybody knows it well that Israel is supported by the big powers especially by the West and due to this support and sometimes shedding crocodile tears, the killer regime continues bloodshed. Normalization of ties has emboldened the Zionists to continue their atrocities under indirect support of those Arab governments.
The secretary-general of the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah has strongly condemned the brutal murder of veteran Palestinian journalist Abu Akleh by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin, saying those who seek normalization of ties with the occupying regime should be ashamed of this heinous crime.
If the international bodies and nations once and for all take a tough stand against the Israeli regime, it will be unable to continue such merciless acts against the innocent and committed people or else this story will be repeated every day and one can witness killing of people in Palestine and the Occupied Lands.
Reporters Without Borders and other international journalist bodies need to prove their real independence by condemning the Israeli regime and they should also join martyr Abu Akleh in revealing the real nature of this fake and killer regime.
By the way, Muslim state governments should be united in taking a firm stand against the Zionist regime’s brutality to show their real consolidation to the Palestinians and now it is the right time for the world to take a tough stand against Israel because this regime shows no pity to anyone because the nature of this regime relies on blood sucking and occupation.
As the Islamic Republic of Iran has repeatedly reiterated, a united Muslim world can bring the Zionist regime down and as long as rift is seen in Muslim world, this fake regime will callously continue their crimes but as we believe, tyranny does not last and it will be eradicated in its due time.
Now journalism in the world should show their responsibility in exposing Zionists’ crimes because today Abu Akleh has been murdered and any time in the future the Zionist may kill more journalists to silence them and any passiveness by the journalist in exposing the Zionists will be a treason to this profession which is aimed at flow of truth and correct information as well as exposing criminals..
