Pars Today - One of the important consequences of the Zionist regime's crimes in the region, and particularly the genocide in Gaza, is that the Zionist regime's media monopoly has been broken.
The Israeli occupation regime has made extensive efforts to conceal its crimes against the people of Gaza from the global public and international opinion. To this end, media outlets affiliated with this regime, as well as Western media that supported it, refrained from covering the crimes of the Zionist regime over the past two years. However, global public opinion has been mobilized against the Zionist regime. The important question is: how has the Zionist regime's media monopoly over Palestinian developments been broken?
The first point in answering this question is that the crimes of the Zionist regime against the people of Gaza, which have amounted to genocide and have even used starvation as a weapon of war against civilians, particularly women and children, have led to the formation of freedom convoys to send humanitarian aid to Gaza. The Zionist regime has so far prevented these convoys from delivering humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. This crime of the Zionist regime has been widely reflected in global public opinion. Most recently, the Zionist regime, which with the full support of America and the West disregards all international laws and norms, assaulted the global "Steadfastness" convoy last week, which was heading towards Gaza to rescue defenseless civilians from the regime's brutal siege of the Gaza Strip. The attack on the freedom convoys, whose members were citizens of various countries, has drawn the attention of nations on one hand, and on the other hand, has been publicized by the convoy members themselves, leading to the collapse of the Zionist regime's media narrative.
Another point is that as a result of the Zionist regime's attacks against the people of Gaza, journalists and media personnel have also been targeted. So far, 254 media personnel have been martyred due to the crimes of the Zionist regime in Gaza. This crime has led to media coverage of the developments in Gaza, particularly the genocide in the strip, and simultaneously, the information disseminated through these media has been republished by social networks and other independent media outlets not affiliated with or supportive of the Zionist regime. In other words, a broad media front has formed against the Zionist regime.
Another issue is that some independent institutions, such as certain United Nations bodies and non-governmental organizations, have prepared documented reports on the crimes of the Zionist regime against the people of Gaza. The publication of these reports and repeated expressions of concern about the occurrence of a humanitarian disaster have caused the media censorship by the Zionist regime and its supporters to fail. Meanwhile, many experts, including United Nations experts, have described what is happening in Gaza by the Zionist regime as genocide.
The final blow to Israel's media monopoly was struck by public opinion worldwide. Global public opinion has utilized various forms and opportunities to express disgust with the Zionist regime and condemn its crimes against the people of Gaza. Widespread street demonstrations, reactions from spectators in various sports stadiums, and the statements of national leaders at the 80th session of the UN General Assembly. The walkout of a large number of leaders during Netanyahu's speech completed the collapse of the Zionist regime's media monopoly, to the extent that this regime is now isolated in the world at an unprecedented level.
