The Israeli Defense Forces on Sunday accused a prominent journalist– who in recent months has reported regularly for Al Jazeera from Gaza – of moonlighting as a senior Hamas commander.
The Israeli Defense Forces have published photos they say were discovered on a laptop in Gaza that show Al Jazeera journalist Mohamed Washah engaged in Hamas terrorist activities.
Neither Al Jazeera nor the Qatari government have responded to the Sun’s request for comment.
In order to know that, we would need to verify the following:
The photo is real and not a fake or AI generated one.
The man in the photo is the journalist and not someone else.
The context of the photo. What is he actually doing? Just because someone is holding what appears to be a munition doesn’t mean they are Hamas. He could be inspecting it as part of his role in being a journalist.
You would need to verify or the IDF and Israeli intelligence would need to verify?
You can look at the photo yourself and see it's the same guy and what he's holding. There are like 16 total photos. It's clearly the same guy. So, we can dispense with your wild conspiracy theories.
Can you think of another reason he's holding an Iranian made rocket? Can you think of another reason he's photographed on different days and times with uniformed members of Hamas while holding weapons used by Hamas and wearing fatigues?
If he was on assignment writing about Hamas and posing for photos, where is the story with the photos?
IIDF literally raided Hammas server farm which was in a tunnel directly under Unrwa command center with all the electricity and optical cables coming from Unrwa itself. Thats probably gonna produce terabytes of intelligence for the next few years.
Guy above me is already tagged as zionist in my app, so don't even bother.
That said, we're definitely gonna need context because the pics alone don't look great. Plus since when does Israel accuse someone of being hamas before killing them?
