Journalists DRAGGED OUT Of State Dept Briefing For Asking About Israel

The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal confronted Blinken, asking why he continued to “keep the bombs flowing when we had a deal in May” and whether he was “compromised by Israel.” Moments later, Sam Husseini was dragged from the presser by cops after attempting to ask a question.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken held his final press conference on Thursday and was confronted about his support for Israel’s genocidal war in Gaza by two veteran reporters, including independent journalist Sam Husseini, who was dragged out of the room while telling Blinken he belonged in The Hague.

Max Blumenthal, founder of The Grayzone, disrupted Blinken’s opening statement, saying, “Three hundred reporters in Gaza were on the receiving end of your bombs, why did you keep the bombs flowing when we had a deal in May?” … “Why did you sacrifice the rules-based order on the mantle of your commitment to Zionism? Why did you allow my friends to be massacred?”

Blumenthal continued to pepper Blinken with questions as he was escorted out of the room. “Are you compromised by Israel? Why did you allow the Holocaust of our time to happen? How does it feel to have your legacy be genocide?”

Referring to State Department spokesman Matt Miller, Blumenthal said, “You too, Matt, you smirked through the whole thing. Every day, you smirked through a genocide.”

A few minutes after Blumenthal left, Husseini began asking Blinken questions. “I’m a journalist, not a potted plant,” Husseini told a State Department employee who told him to be quiet.

Blinken said he would answer questions after his statement, but Husseini said that Miller explicitly told him that he wouldn’t have the chance to ask questions. Husseini, a contributor to Antiwar .com, frequently attends State Department press briefings but is rarely called on.
