A New York Times reporter who came under fire last year for a praising Adolf Hitler in multiple resurfaced Facebook posts was rehired by the Gray Lady to cover the Israel-Palestine war.
Palestinian filmmaker Soliman Hijjy hailed the Nazi leader as recently as 2018 in a post on Facebook, when he shared a photo of himself captioned that he was “in a state of harmony as Hitler was during the Holocaust,” per a translation from Arabic by pro-Israel media watchdog site HonestReporting.
That same year, Hijjy was hired by the Times as a freelance journalist and worked on a slew of “visual investigations” published by the organization through 2021, including one on an Israeli airstrike that killed 44 people.

Do you have a citation on that?
Only brown skin allows hom to have done so.
Will they lose even a single sale in New York?
No. This is the news most New Yorkers want to hear. And college students, apparently.
No, the filthy rag is owned largely by Soros of Murder! It’s his Volkischer-Beobachter, fit only for bumfodder!

The Times is a bad joke. Now they’re hiring genocidal staff. It’s just sickening that anyone trusts this paper.
This is why we need more immigrants, because our labor pool is so small.
