🎥 This Journalist Asked the Simplest Question about Israel and Got Fired for It. If Zionists Think This Level of Censorship Helps Them They are Dead Wrong.

Europe told the world “Russia must pay” for Ukraine. Ask the same about Israel—and you’re out. That double standard is unsustainable.

Before you watch the video: If you value journalism that asks the questions the mainstream won’t—and keeps those stories free for the world—I need you with me today. The New York Times has 12 million subscribers and still trips over Gaza’s truth. We have 3,100 members and tell the story from the side of the oppressed—every time. Help me keep this work free everywhere and hire two teammates (an editor and a producer) to launch our daily video show with receipts on screen. Please become a member or, if you’re able, join monthly, annually, or as a founding member. Your membership isn’t a tip—it’s how truth survives.

I watched the clip. The journalist, Gabriele Nunziati, is polite—warm, even. On October 13th, he asked the European Commission’s chief spokesperson a simple, relevant question:

“You’ve been repeating several times that Russia should pay for the reconstruction of Ukraine. Do you believe that Israel should pay for the reconstruction of Gaza since they have destroyed almost all its civilian infrastructure?”

That’s journalism. It’s also international law 101: when a state destroys civilian infrastructure, reparations are a recognized remedy under the law of state responsibility. The Commission spokesperson called it “an interesting question” and refused to comment.

Two weeks later—on October 27th—his agency, Nova, lets him go.

They didn’t deny it. Nova’s spokesperson said the question was “technically incorrect,” that Israel is different because it’s “responding,” and that the clip’s viral pickup by Russian and Islamic channels caused “embarrassment.” An Italian MP called the firing “shameful.” A Nova colleague said this is the tip of a censorship iceberg. In the background is a death toll that dwarfs any talking point: 240+ journalists killed in Gaza.

Let me be painfully clear: if Zionists think people losing their careers for even asking a question about them is a net gain, they are wrong. This is not strength. It’s a boomerang. It will cost the journalist rent and a way to provide for himself, yes, and that breaks my heart—but this kind of punishment costs Zionism credibility everywhere competent people are still thinking straight.

Nobody—absolutely nobody—gets fired for asking this same question about any other state on earth. Not Russia. Not Saudi Arabia. Not the U.S. during Iraq. Only Israel. Full stop. That double standard is precisely why trust is collapsing.

You don’t have to agree with the premise to see the principle: questions are not crimes. And “embarrassment” is not a newsroom policy—unless your policy is to shield the powerful and punish anyone who breaks the approved script.

Here’s what the moment shows, without spin:

• The clip: A calm, fair question: Who pays to rebuild Gaza, as the EU insists Russia must for Ukraine?

• The response: Brussels dodges; Nova fires. The pretext? “Technically incorrect” and “embarrassing” because the video went viral.

• The law: Reparations are a standard remedy when civilian infrastructure is destroyed. Asking about it is journalism, not “ignorance.”

• The pattern: Western reporters disciplined for Gaza truths while hundreds of Palestinian journalists are killed, caged, or maimed.

• The consequence: Silencing people today radicalizes clarity tomorrow. This is not a win for Zionism; it’s the surest route to losing the room.

I’m frustrated because I know how this works: punish one person, and you chill a thousand more. But I also know something else: every act of censorship becomes an admission. If the question is that devastating, maybe it’s because the answer is obvious: the state that turns neighborhoods to dust should pay to rebuild them—and be held to account for why they were leveled in the first place.

Watch how gentle the ask is. No grandstanding. No “gotcha.” Just a journalist doing his job.

I’m going to keep doing my job here: naming the double standards, quoting the law in plain English, and keeping the microphone with the oppressed. That means pushing back against a media environment where asking an “uncomfortable question” about Israel gets you fired. It also means staying free to anyone on earth who needs this.

If you want that—if you want me to keep telling the stories they punish—please become a member. If you can, join monthly, annually, or as a founding member. We don’t have 12 million subscribers. We have 3,100. But our allegiance is clean: we tell the truth, and we side with the oppressed.

Love and appreciate each of you.
