Knesset law allows banning foreign news networks

The US keeps tolerating what Israel is doing in Gaza by rationalizing that it's our only democratic ally in the region. But the evidence mounts each day that their so-called democracy is fading rapidly and being replaced by fascism.

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel says he will 'act immediately' to ban Al Jazeera in the country after the Knesset passed a law Monday that allows the government to shut down foreign news networks deemed to be threats to national security."

"This move alleging Al Jazeera of siding with terrorists is baseless. It’s alarming. Our work is — we uphold the highest standards of journalistic professionalism. Al Jazeera has been there in Israel and in the Palestinian Territories covering the war from both sides. Our work is corroborated and has been corroborated by so many outlets around the world."
