Media literacy public service announcement: Al-Jazeera is Qatari state media; its reporting in English is okay on issues Qatar isn't directly involved in, but is basically Pravda on issues it is. Middle East Eye is Qatari state media for reporting that's so trash that even Al-Jazeera won't touch it - that's where Hamas massacre denialism comes from usually. These sources are to be believed to the same extent one believes Global Times, or Russia Today.
@Alon aljeezeras reporting on the grand ethiopian renaissance dam was pretty slanderous too and is widly refered to in other reports despite being wrong to the point of comical maliciousness (no egypt isn’t going to loose 30% of its agriculture on a hydropower dam that actually reduces evaporation losses for egypt)
