#western media
I’m just here to say that if you only get information from western media you’ll only ever get the narrative they want you to hear, believe, and repeat.
I do this thing where I tend to look up news in arabic and then in english when researching a topic. The way english news sounds is completely different from the narrative the people involved in the actual subject on the actual ground have been through. And I’m not talking about the arabic news from BS arabic speaking zionist channels. I’m talking about the news that get censored in the West, which you’ll never hear about, because you don’t know they exist.
In short. You will never find anything other than what they want you to hear, simply because, the alternative, which frequently tells how they’re involved in the BS, isn’t allowed to show up to their public.
Don’t believe me ? Look up the number of times Palestinians who gained spotlight during the past year, and who actually speak arabic, and see both narratives, have had their accounts suspended on twitter, instagram, facebook, the whole gang, when trying to speak up.
When a newspaper, tv channel, or account, from a specific group, is being censored, on a big scale, it’s often because they’re telling things some people don’t want you to know about.
Believe us when we speak about our countries. We live there.
This goes for Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, Kashmir, and also Ukraine and Russia.
Listen to the people actually living in these countries.

The second headline says, “Shireen Abu Akleh, Palestinian Journalist, Dies, Aged 51”. The word “dies” has also been underlined and has a red arrow pointing to it.
