Why (defined as) racist Ben Norton, unreliable, link, words and or definitions should be removed=

[edit]

Since I was the first to respond after user Alvei..... (weeks after Ben Norton was publicized for his bigotry) posted this Ben Norton link and ideas recently....

From.the following, it seems that Ben Norton is:


Pro China vis-a-vis Uyghur.

Pro Hezbollah.

Anti Israel (and some point yo his anti Jewish bigotry as the drive).

Accused by some Arabs as a bigot too.

Dehumanizing Syrians.

Questionable ethics on journalism and on "facts".

Supporter of brutal Asad regime.

Propagating against the White Helmets.

  • Coda Media called out for disingormation in a July 2020 piece titled "fringe leftists deny the scale of China’s Uyghur oppression." [1]
  • His "ethics" in journalism have to be shed a light upon. At least according to this 2015 case.[2].
  • Point of view... His propaganda war on the White Helmets in Syria. Claiming in July 2018 it was created by the West for propaganda...

He bashed Canada after it announced Canada supporting White Helmets and was careful to omit the following from Canada's statement:

July 21, 2018 Ottawa, Ontario - Global Affairs Canada.

The Honourable Chrystia Freeland, Minister of Foreign Affairs, today released the following statement:

The White Helmets are courageous volunteers and first responders who risk their lives to help their fellow Syrians who have been targeted by senseless violence. When children, women, and men in Syria flee for their lives, the White Helmets run towards danger, towards the rubble, to save the innocent and the wounded. The White Helmets have witnessed vicious atrocities committed by the Assad regime and its backers.

  • Ben Norton tweeting on January 3, 2020:.

"Soleimani has an 82% approval rating in Iran, and is a hero in much of the Middle East because he defeated ISIS[.] Meanwhile US client regimes like Saudi Arabia supported ISIS, after the US gave birth to it. The US empire is the world's actual no. 1 bad guy."

  • In June 25, 2019 in a tweet, he implied he doesn't know about uniqueness of the Holocaust. To which user Kaveh replied "Gentiles don't count." Without objection, reaction from Ben.

Quote from an Arab blogger (who shows Ben Norton's shifting statements and flaws): Activists he slammed for using bogus evidence and leftists he derided as ‘tankies’ suddenly became his new best friends as he sucked up to them and pretended he was really with them all along. Norton even resorted to Alt-Right Muslim-bashing anti-terror rhetoric to smear the cause and the people he once defended from such racist attacks. [4].

Issue number 2.

Since Besa Center has been reduced to one single article selected (which asides from Ben Norton no one else is known to write about, at least at the time). A broader picture and context of Besa Center is needed.
