A United Nations commission this month published a report saying that Israel has deliberately targeted Palestinian children since 7 October 2023, and that it committed genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity in the process.
Since then, the UN has come under ferocious attack, while one senior journalist was smeared simply for drawing attention to the report.
When Alex Crawford of Sky News highlighted the UN findings on X (formerly Twitter), former Jewish Chronicle editor Jake Wallis Simons accused her of “the usual baseless propaganda, amplified by the usual players, serving the usual dark agenda”.
Columnist Stephen Pollard, who writes for the Telegraph and other mainstream outlets, reposted Crawford’s tweet, saying: “Gosh - whoever would have expected @AlexCrawfordSky to post stories that don’t have any evidence supporting them, just to be able to libel the world’s only Jewish state? I’m shocked!”
Israel’s foreign ministry echoed these attacks, calling the UN report a “libellous sham” and “a propaganda piece as outrageous as its previous ones”.
