WATCH: Jon Snow Calls On The World To “Make A Difference” In Gaza

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine sees an increasing death toll everyday. All over the world, pro-Palestinian groups have been taking to the streets to protest against Israel’s inhumane mass murdering of Palestinian civilians, particularly the hundreds of Palestinian children who have been killed by Israeli bombing. Even the UN has spoken out, with one report concluding that the Israeli operation in Gaza has killed one child every hour.

Media outlets like the BBC have come under fire for biased reporting of the conflict. However, Channel 4’s Jon Snow has proved to be a breath of fresh air upon his return from the conflict zone. Through an honest and accurate 3 minute broadcast, Jon Snow captures the hearts and minds of people all over the world as he recalls what he saw while he was in Gaza and calls on humanity to put an end to the suffering.

Jon Snow’s heart-wrenching report of what the Palestinian people are going through will make you realise that journalism – when done correctly – truly does have the power to drive people to make a difference.

    This is egregious! Having been to the side that is being targeted by this missiles the psychological damage these attacks are causing are not shown by Jon Snow who has an agenda here. Israel and its citizens that are being attacked daily by THOUSANDS of missiles do not have a HUMAN RIGHT to try to stop it. That is unacceptable from a journalist who has to be fair. Just mentioning rocket attacks and glossing over it and not mentioning human shields that Hamas uses to allow for these casualties indicates that this man does not care for Israel. He indeed does immeasurable harm to brainwash the viewer who knows absolutely nothing and who turns to his/her Jewish neighbour as if he/or she is to blame. .
