Video Description (from Youtube)

Egyptian journalist Sharif Abdel Kouddous discusses Israel's mass killing of reporters— and how U.S. media enables and incites violence against journalists everywhere. Katie and Sharif also talk about

the IDF's open admission that they photoshopped a picture of journalist Ali Hassan Shaib as a Hezbollah militant in order to justify his murder. They also discuss the case of US-Kuwaiti journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, who was imprisoned for social media posts about Iran (who has been acquitted since this recording), as well as the case of an 'antisemitic' (read: unflattering) photo of a West Bank settler in Italian magazine L'Espresso.

Frequently Asked Questions

1.Who built the Kabah in Saudi Arabia?

Prophet Abraham built the Kaaba for people to worship God. While pagan Arabs admitted this fact and even kept the stone where he used to stand to build the Kaaba (Abraham's station), they brought idols to the Kaaba and worshiped them to get closer to Abraham's Lord, Allah, God of gods. Prophet Muhammad came with the monotheistic message of Islam. Arabs defended these idols and refused to give up the religion of their fathers and grandfathers.
