And tomorrow he’ll be found dead in his car with “self-inflicted” wounds.
But seriously…whistleblowers are our modern day sentinels. I have the utmost respect for people willing to expose the truth at significant risk and danger to themselves. I hope I would have the integrity to stand up for what’s right if put into such a position.
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

So israel kidnaps Palestinians and tortures them so hard they cut their arms and legs off.
Truly the most moralest of armies.
While I have no doubt that there are war crimes happening, has anyone heard of this outfit?
No, but most of what they are quoting is from a major Israeli newspaper. This was out several days ago, but didn’t get picked up here in the states.
MBFC for Constitution News:
Overall, we rate Consortium News Left Biased based on story selection and advocacy that strongly favors the left. We also rate them as Mostly Factual in reporting due to one-sided opinion-based reporting that is difficult to verify. […]
In general, Consortium News holds strong left-leaning biases with a focus on anti-war and anti-imperialism perspectives. Most information is properly sourced, but many stories are opinion-based and sometimes cannot be proven correct or incorrect.
Ad Fontes Media rates Consortium News in the Hyper-Partisan Left category of bias and as Mixed Reliability/Opinion OR Other Issues in terms of reliability. Consortium News was launched in 1995 as the first investigative news magazine based on the Internet. The founder, journalist Robert Parry, was dedicated to breaking the pattern of “silliness and propaganda” that he saw in American journalism. Consortium News is published by the Consortium for Independent Journalism Inc.
Just some additional context.
Robert Earle Parry (June 24, 1949 – January 27, 2018)[1] was an American investigative journalist. He was known for his role in covering the Iran–Contra affair for the Associated Press (AP) and Newsweek, including breaking the Psychological Operations in Guerrilla Warfare (CIA manual provided to the Nicaraguan contras) and the CIA involvement in Contra cocaine trafficking in the U.S. scandal in 1985.

No, but here’s an archive of the account of it in Haaretz, you should probably read that one.
No. Their MBFC page is an interesting read:
It is considered the first alternative investigative journalism internet news source. Consortium News covers stories deeply and has been responsible for uncovering scandals and important information that was not found/covered by the mainstream media.
They also get a bit philosophical about the nature of truth, which I don’t think I’ve ever seen before.
Haaretz actually reported this first (there’s an archive link in the article) and they’re high credibility.
There are so many whistles blowing at any time, but largely ignored by leaders. If this doctor can be heard, then all the better. Either way, let’s force our elected officials to do something.
Obviously a Hamas operative.

I mean in the modern Israeli Nazi-like political climate it’s the best we’re gonna get.
That applies to every news organization that falls back on sources such as “an expert familiar with the matter”, or “speaking anonymously because they are not authorized to talk to the press” etc etc.
They all do it and we accept it as fact, only questioning it when it is something we disagree with.
