Pro-Genocide MSM Lies: Progroms & Beheaded Babies | Eugene Doyle

Originally published on 12 November 2024.
If the “40 beheaded babies” story was not enough to convince Europeans and Americans that something is seriously out whack when it comes to their media coverage of Isreal and Palestine, maybe this most recent “football hooligans are suffering from progroms” is? At least it’s the latest example of the outrageous spin large media corporations are trying to create in support of the Gaza Genocide and against the protests happening about that in the West.

To discuss this case, I’m talking to Eugene Doyle, a writer based in Wellington, New Zealand, who has written extensively on the Middle East, as well as peace and security issues in the Asia Pacific region.

Last weekend, Eugene penned an article on the then ongoing events in Amsterdam, where Israeli Football Hooligans vandalised parts of the city and in turn got beaten up, which then large parts of the media started portraying as a “progrom” against Jews. Eugene entitled this “the BBC goes full Goebbels.”
