The Listening Post Israel-Palestine: The War | The crucial context of Israel’s war on Gaza
The Listening Post looks at the context, the reporting and the implications a week on from Hamas’s attack on Israel. A week on from Hamas’s shock assault against Israel and the war that has exploded since, The Listening Post looks at the context, the reporting and the implications. Published on Saturday 14 October 2023. What we are seeing in the occupied Gaza Strip and Israel has no precedent – the barbarism, the talk of vengeance, the war crimes. And the signs, all too familiar ones, of journalists succumbing to the pressures under the powers that be. In this special episode, we delve into the news coverage of the war in Palestine and Israel. We examine the narratives that have emerged since Hamas’s surprise attack – a seismic news event that is destined to take ownership of the date on which it happened – October 7, 2023.
