Al Jazeera takes the killing of Shireen Abu Akleh to the ICC
Al JazeeraMAY 2023
Al Jazeera has always rejected accusations of anti-Semitism, and Israel has been rightly stung by the international condemnation of its killing of Palestinian-American Abu Akleh. Israel has attempted to deflect criticism surrounding its actions by attempting to paint the media giant as dangerous, rather than taking accountability for its own actions.
The suit filed by Al Jazeera to the ICC will only shine an embarrassing spotlight on the news network itself. Previously referring to the Holocaust as "alleged," Al Jazeera may eventually regret continuing the historical trend of extremists attempting to sue prominent Jews.
