Episode Details

Israel’s PM’s office slams The New York Times over a damning column alleging sexual abuse of Palestinian detainees, launching a defamation lawsuit they call “blood libel.” Netanyahu vows to fight the claims legally and publicly, while the Times stands firm, calling the reporting “deeply sourced opinion journalism” backed by witnesses and research. This isn’t the first time Netanyahu has eyed legal action against the paper — he previously hinted at suing over Gaza starvation reports. The move sparks debate over media standards, free speech, and whether allegations of sexual violence are treated differently depending on context — especially around October 7th.
