Probably gonna butcher what Max Ajl said about this in his two-part article, but the whole magnification of the "Israel lobby" not only serves to obscure the role of American imperialism. It's also a way to absolve UAE and the gulf state's role, right? Which is why Al-Jazeera produced that documentary...

There's the 6 dead they found. No one has said how though, probably Hannibal Directive. I heard the US media would try to rile people up over one of the victims being American, but isn't consent already manufactured for the kind of people who would care?

Didn't Al Jazeera used to be good in the past? Or at least with regards to a good portion of a Global South. I can imagine they always had those flaws but maybe they're more pronounced now, with their reporting on Ukraine for example.

However, it ought to be noted that the network has a fair number of shortfcomings. Many times, they have reported inaccurately (for example, on the Rwandan opposition), reported some stories rather simplistically (like the DRC, events in West Africa etc.), and sometimes, reproduced Qatar government foreign policy positions (see reporting on Syria and Iraq). Yet these editorial and operational conundrums tend to be true of all networks. Indeed, notwithstanding these shortfalls, AJE has sustained the voices of the subaltern, and offered a counter-narrative destabilising normalised ‘stories’ about the poor — the still exploited peripheries of the capitalist world. Indeed, it is not wild to say that presently, the BBC and CNN and other major networks have started following the example set and the challenge posed by AJE. The rest of the article covers the positive sides of it in their its history. https://roape.net/2024/06/14/when-lions-learn-to-paint-reporting-the-subaltern-world/
