The Thomson Reuters Foundation rescinded its bestowal of a Kurt Schork Award in International Journalism on Palestinian freelance journalist Shatha Hammad after discovering old social media posts in which she praised Adolf Hitler.
In 2014, Hammad posted a comment on Facebook that said “Me and Hitler are friends. We have influence over each other and share the same ideology, such as the extermination of the Jews.”
In a post the same year, Hammad described the terrorists that killed five Israelis in a terrorist attack as "martyrs."
...Meet Shatha Hammad, a Palestinian journalist with Al Jazeera & Middle East Eye. She just won a @Reuters award. She also loves Hitler...
She is a journalist for al-jihadZeera.
Must have really pained the Israel haters at Rooters to do this.
Yea I’m not sure she is laughing now after being exposed all over the world.
They’re surprised a Palestinian’s views coincided with Hitler? Who the f—k are these people?
Remember, the so called Palestinian terrorists are just “freedom fighters” ...and so are their defenders, who are “journalists”
The Thomson Reuters Foundation rescinded its bestowal of a Kurt Schork Award in International Journalism...
Still doesn't save the award as a whole.
In Arabic, her name is: شذى حماد
No wonder ‘Electronic Intifada’s Ali Abunimah, even featured here in his 2015 “book” about the ‘apartheid slur’.
Hitler liked Islam but hated the Arabs, he played them though.
Haggai Erlich, The Middle East Between the World Wars, The Open University Press, Tel Aviv, 1992, p. 46:
Hitler spoke about the Arabs being “lacquered half-apes”.
Disparaging statements regarding the Arabs were also made by senior employees of the German Foreign Ministry, such as Fritz Grobba, the German ambassador to Iraq, who called the Arabs “a tyrannical and barbaric Oriental people.”
Rudolf Rahn, the envoy of the German Foreign Ministry to Syria, underestimated Arab nationalism: “There is no Arab national movement in Syria. The Syrian tribes are a wild and ugly group of races and religions, corrupted by greed, intrigue and jealousy, and for generations hunted down by the rival powers to accept bribes These tribes do not know the national sentiment [...] Their pursuit of so-called independence is nothing more than a means of incessant corruption. Under the guise of the desire for freedom, there is unrestrained exploitation of the workers by the ruling class. Even the racially better part, the Bedouins, are infected by the general corruption, and they are flocking After the power in power like jackals after animals of prey.”
