Incitement, propaganda and support for terror: how the Qatari-Palestinian machine works

A report on Channel 14 exposes the activities of the Qatari company "Fada'at Media", headed by Azmi Bishara, which operates the arab48 website and other media outlets that distribute nationalist and anti-Israeli content among Israeli Arabs, while accusing it of foreign influence on elections.

A report by Yishai Friedman on Channel 14 exposes what it calls the "Qatari-Palestinian machine" of incitement, propaganda and support for terror. The report focuses on the Qatari company "Fada'at Media", whose board chairman is Azmi Bishara, described as a "traitor" and "spy". The company operates the arab48 website, a television channel in Syria and Lebanon, the newspaper Al-Arabi Al-Jadeed and a film production company. The report claims that arab48 distributes nationalist, anti-Israeli content that is sympathetic to terrorists, and that the company produced a film glorifying the terrorist Walid Daka. It also notes that days before the elections, Bishara and the interviewer Abed Abu Shhadeh called on the Arab public to vote in droves. The report accuses Qatar of foreign influence on elections in Israel.
