CNN ["Palestinian" Lebanese] Qiblawi journalist urged to delete anti-Israel posts on social media

The CNN journalist in question is Tamara Qiblawi, a Georgetown-educated Lebanon native who has worked for CNN since 2015. By Zvika Klein Published: April 16, 2023 [https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cc20f51ca525b73bdd50e3a/e04660f4-806f-4bb9-9012-83fc7e080214/CNN_Journalist_Deletes_Anti_Israel_Posts?format=750w] ... HR cited a Facebook entry dated May 15, 2015, in which Qiblawi described the events surrounding Israel’s founding with the Palestinian term nakba, “catastrophe” in Arabic, a term Palestinians use to describe their experience in the 1948 War of Independence, while denouncing the creation of Israel a safe haven for Jews, “mak[ing] way for an ethnoreligious exclusive state.”

Lebanon faced a “ruthless, genocidal onslaught of an Israeli invasion,” she wrote. She also wrote the following: "Can I reconcile my revulsion with a desire for resistance to the Zio-Saudi project[?] Probably not. Cognitive dissonance is better than denial."

CNN told HR on April 11: “Tamara Qiblawi has a track record of delivering excellent, balanced journalism for CNN on the Middle East and other topics. She has agreed to delete these posts.”

After the January 2015 terrorist attack in Paris, which targeted the Charlie Hebdo magazine and later Hyper Cacher, a kosher supermarket, Qiblawi wrote on Facebook that she was “not convinced” that Islamist terrorists had perpetrated the massacre, and she complained about “the absence of any critical consideration of the parties with a vested interest in framing Muslims.”

Qiblawi later wrote: “[O]ur tendency towards conspiracies is not based on some kind of mass paranoid schizophrenia but knowledge of our history with the west,” citing an alleged “campaign to dispossess Palestinians in ’48” as one example of a conspiracy by “the West.”

After HR revealed in November that a CNN producer had written on social media that he was a proud backer of #Team Hitler and defended Hamas, CNN fired him, HR executive director Gil Hoffman said...

Yeah, we wouldn't want any CNN viewers to find out what's going on.

In order to preserve the fairy tale that CNN journalists are unbiased.

Lebanon has been occupied by Syria and/or Iran since the 1970s.

Those rogue states used Lebanon as a staging area for attacks, and still do.

IOW, she’s a lying POS.
