The US Ambassador to Israel Promotes the Occupation's Narrative Regarding "Anas Sharif"

Translation by SadaNews: The US ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, embraced the Israeli narrative claiming that the Palestinian martyr journalist Anas Sharif was affiliated with Hamas, describing him as "a fake journalist."

Huckabee stated, as translated by SadaNews: "Real journalists should feel angry about Hamas's employment of a person impersonating a journalist; one cannot be an objective journalist and a terrorist at the same time."

Huckabee's remarks come in the context of his unequivocal support for Israeli policies, and describing Palestinian journalists as terrorists is part of a systematic campaign to justify targeting them, especially amid increasing violations against journalists in Gaza and the West Bank.
