Netanyahu Abhors Haaretz

The Israeli occupation’s government has approved a measure instructing all government-funded entities to stop communicating with Haaretz and to withdraw any advertisements from the newspaper. The government explained that the move was due to “numerous articles undermining the legitimacy of the state of Israel and its right to self-defense, especially comments made by Haaretz publisher Amos Schocken in London, which supported terrorism and called for sanctions against the government.” Earlier this month, Schocken had already faced criticism from Israeli officials over his remarks referring to Palestinian “freedom fighters.”
