(Comment to a misleading CNN report, part VII.)

This is not about race, it's not about religion, it's about injustice. CNN article just doesn't tell the reasons which Anonymous itself has claimed for the attack.

It was about helping the oppressed, trying to save the life of dying hunger striker Samer Issawi.

It was not about race, it was not about religion, it was about Samer and all the Palestinians who suffer as a result of Israeli oppression.


CNN just doesn't want to tell this, because there is an almost total media blockade about Samer Issawi in the West, even when people have protested for him in the middle of Washington DC and dropped banners from Austin to Cleveland.

AFP released tiny news article about Samer and Ayman Sharawna months ago, based on just Israeli sources (who confirmed their already then long hunger strike but pretended to have lost count of how long they had been on hunger strike) and The Guardian surprisingly a letter from him - go and Google it - although it "balanced" this with a hysterical and misleading pro-Israel article written by one of it's own journalist, who made vague claims against Samer in an effort to discredit him.
