MODERATORS
❌ Your 1st source is a "News" website, Qatari funded, called Aljazeera (Fun fact: Hamas leaders are now in refuge in Qatar, and Qatar pays them $ billions paying them). This News website cannot be used as a neutral source: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Jazeera_controversies_and_criticism
❌ Your 2nd source doesn't specify whether it was Israel or Hamas who killed them. There is no proof in the article.
Your post is clearly biased against Israel and cannot be considered a source of truth.
My condolences for all the people hurted from this war.
The US military has a base in Qatar. Does that mean the US military is working for HAMAS ?
Do you have proof that they aren't ?

Half the controversies you linked to are about Al Jazeera journalists who were killed by Israel.
Re: your second point, are you really so naive to think Palestinians kill their own journalists? You can’t even smear Al Jazeera without linking to Israel killing journalists.
This is not true, you are misleading and lying.
Palestinians don't kill their own journalists, but Hamas can definitely do it.
Sources of Hamas killing Palestinians: https://statistics.btselem.org/en/stats/since-cast-lead/by-date-of-incident/execution-hamas/occupied-territories?tab=overview
And are you so naive to think that Hamas, the dictator of Gaza since 2005, a terrorist organization, will allow anyone to honestly report from inside Gaza, and will not kill anyone who even attempts to report honestly from within Gaza? Why are you so sure of Israel killing journalists but can't accept Palestinians killing journalists, when Palestinians are known to kill and torture each other? Read a book or two on the conflict, start with Son of Hamas...
