This is how Russia and China stack the deck against the West. If we want to defeat the world from shitty governments we have to start with our own.

This headline is terrible journalism. Guess I shouldn't expect much from a random website from Morocco when it comes to unbiased reporting on Israel though.

Why, does Genocide get a different name when Jews do it?

His point was, that the UN guy didn’t resign because of the Hamas Israel war. The UN Guy announced in march 2023 that he was going to retire - and now he finally did it. The way the „source“ paints it, that it was because of the war. This is just Disinformation.

You can read the letter, it's an open statement. He extensively talks about the Hamas-Israel war. He cites directly the actions and statements from the US, EU and UK about Israel and Palestine as the reasons to retire effectively at this date as a protest, even if he was going to retire this year anyways.

Here's the letter. It is scathing about what is happening in Gaza

And at no point does that letter in any way confirm the title of your post..

I mean, you can guess to his point, but since he doesn't say so that's all it is, a guessing game.

Why are we allowing a random news site from Morocco on this forum? Do we know their journalistic standards? Is the country a democracy with a good reputation for free speech?
