  • “If winning a prize entails enduring and witnessing all these war crimes while remaining silent, then I am not honoured to receive any prizes.”
    Maha Hussaini, a Palestinian journalist, was awarded the Courage in Journalism Award by the International Women’s Media Foundation (IWMF) for her reporting from the war-torn Gaza Strip.
    However, following allegations made by conservative US publication the Washington Free Beacon, the IWMF on Thursday said it was rescinding the award.
    Since Israel’s war on Gaza began in October, Hussaini has published dozens of stories with Middle East Eye, including a report uncovering Israeli field executions of Palestinians, which was used as evidence by South Africa at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in its case accusing Israel of genocide.

      We should spread this news and make even more people aware of this dishonorable act by the IWMF and the despicable smear campaign by the Washington "Free Beacon" publication. I wonder what outrageous accusations they fabricated against her. I am willing to bet they are the same tired old tropes of antisemitism and supporting "terror".

      @@amaanhussainbarbhuyan9628 I know it feels that way, but that's not the answer. They are normal people like everyone else with the same number of good, bad, kind, mean, etc. only they have been deeply indôctrïnated their entire lives into believing all Palestinians are evil. Think about how you felt about them when you just said they were devils. The goodness in you and your sense of justice, and the disgüst and anger you feel at seeing attrǒcities against innocent people - that's how THEY feel about innocent Palestinians because they have been misled into believing they are all responsible for horrible atroćitïes. indöctrïnatian preys on the sense of goodness and justice in someone and directs it at innocent people. It's the banality of evil.

      ​@@GlutenEruption I wouldn't go so far as to call them devils, but don't be ridiculous. Indoctrination can only influence one's views so far, to hold the view that innocent civilians, much less women and children, need to be killed because they are "terrorist supporters" require a certain level of evil that's hard to reach as human being. They exist all over the world, transcending race religion & ethnicity.
      I see people writing paragraphs to explain to them about what's really happening, and they chose to discredit it blindly. These people are truly beyond help. We are 8 months into a genocide, there's no way anyone actively supporting the apartheid colonial state at this point don't know what's going on.
      Refusing to call them evil is an insult to those who have seen the evil and decided to stand against it. Hesitation will only lead to more suffering of those already oppressed. October 7 had to happen because the whole world had been doing exactly what you are advocating for. We can't afford to play nice with these kinds of dangerous ideologies. Failing to recognize and denounce evil for what it is, as our predecessors did, only sets the stage for history to repeat itself.

All the journalists who kept on reporting from Gaza throughout the genocide and all those who worked to bring those images and videos out to and in front of the world have done the most noble job. The masks came off from all the faces due to your work. Now, absolutely no one can claim that they did not know what was happening in Gaza during the first 8 months of the genocide. The effective awareness campaigns against the genocide would not have been possible without those videos and pictures. Now everyone knows who is on which side, and that is the biggest achievement for a free Palestine iA. As far as the organizations who revoked your awards, their masks have been ripped off as well.
