Srugim news 26.11.22

The Israeli journalist talks about the hatred he experienced from Muslims as a journalist covering the World Cup in Qatar: "I always thought that the problem was with the governments. With the rulers. With us too. But in Qatar I came to know how much hatred is the lot of the people on the street."

...He later writes in his name that he experienced a "disillusionment" in Qatar and describes the change he underwent "I was always a centrist, liberal and open, with a desire for peace above all else. I always thought that the problem was with the governments. With the rulers. Also with us. But in Qatar I came to know how much hatred is The lot of the people on the street. How much they want to wipe us off the face of the earth. How much everything related to Israel arouses in them intense hatred."

The videos that Hochman uploaded to the web were of course also exposed to the Arab audience and they received hateful reactions and threats.

The Palestinian-American journalist Samar Dhamash-Jarrah, for example, recently uploaded a video to her Twitter account with 170,000 followers under the title "Expose them. They are criminals [sic]",...

News 12 reporter Ohad Hemo also referred to the hostility felt by Israeli reporters in Qatar: "What we are experiencing here, in short, is "TikTok shaming", and that is a big part of the story. There is, for example, the Lebanese who confronted me (an opportunity to note that I immediately mentioned my origin because transparency is something It is important when you are interviewing someone that there is a chance that they will not want to be interviewed. Just think of the reaction of such a person who will feel cheated if he finds out only at the end of the interview that he gave it to the Israeli media without his knowledge.) This video is widespread all over the Arab world with millions of views, virality at its best, centered on the young Arab Tells an Israeli the truth of many of them.

"The excessive media preoccupation with this issue in the last week may intensify perceptions that have already grown stronger in recent years in Israel of "Am Levadad Yishkon". Everyone [there] is anti-Semitic, no matter what we do - the Arab world will hate us, etc. In this context I say this: yes, there are certain parts of the Arab world who will not accept Israel as an existing fact under any conditions.
