The Qatar-owned channel Al Jazeera has unjustifiably become part of the Gaza war story.
In January, two Al Jazeera reporters, Hamzah Dahdouh and Mustafa Thurayya, were killed in the war. On Monday, the Israeli military freed Al Jazeera correspondent in Gaza Ismail Al-Ghoul, hours after arresting him during its renewed operations in the Al-Shifa medical compound.
Iranian Islamic scholar Mohammad Mousavi criticized Islamic extremism in Iran during a March 11, 2024 interview on DidarNews on YouTube. He suggested that the Islamic Republic let go of some of the restrictions in some areas of the country. Mousavi said that Islamic tradition does not give clerics permission to enforce the hijab. He continued to say that religious fanaticism has killed more people than the coronavirus or the world wars. Mousavi added that Iranian religious extremism is more dangerous than an atomic bomb. He said that Iran has spent trillions of dollars on annihilating Israel within 25 years, financing Palestinians, Iraqis, and Syrians, while it promises its own citizens rewards only in the afterlife. Mousavi said that the economic policy of the Islamic regime has brought Iranians to sell their organs and mothers to sell their bodies in order to afford baby formula.

Russia’s war on Ukraine makes cooperation among France, Germany, and Poland more important than ever. Public disagreements can only weaken the EU and play into Putin’s hands.
It happened back in 1991, just as the Cold War was ending and the Eastern and Central European countries were making the transition to democracy.
The Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) is an Iraqi state security service that Iran has infiltrated and uses to wield significant influence in Iraq. Iran’s cooptation of the PMF enables Tehran to pursue its objectives in Iraq while obfuscating its actual involvement in Iraqi internal affairs.
