        Al Jazeera is sus AF. The moderate amount of good reporting they do is just so no one notices that qatar is a comprador ass state that currently has f22s based out of it to deter Iranian response to isntrael. If they just came out for Zionism straight up, the con would be over

          Their journalism is a byproduct of being forced into a corner for the better part of the past decade or so by Saudi Arabia and other gulf states hostility towards Qatar for pipeline related reasons. It became convenient for them to speak out against the west and the regimes they backed in the region. Saudi Arabia did eventually reproach with Qatar but Al-Jazeera has maintained their reporting stance despite this.
