Livestreams of Al Jazeera Arabic, Al Jazeera English and Al Jazeera Mubasher blocked in Israel.
Al Jazeera has condemned YouTube’s compliance with an Israeli law banning the network’s livestreams in the country, warning that the move signals how major tech companies can be “co-opted as instruments of regimes hostile to freedom”.
YouTube’s submission to Israel’s ban became apparent on Wednesday, days after Israeli Communications Minister Shlomo Karahi ordered a 90-day extension of an existing ban on the network’s operations in Israel, blocking broadcasting and internet companies from carrying the network’s content.

Bias media censors bias media? Omg
Aljazeera is pretty unbiased on anything not related to Qatar
Implying there’s any unbiased media
Perhaps some are simply more biased than others
Aljazeera is a lot less biased when it comes to reporting on Israel than Western mainstream media.
I am my unbiased media :)
