An opinion piece in what is widely regarded as an outlet for the Muslim Brotherhood and pro-Hamas:
Saudi Arabia has accused MEE of being a news outlet funded by Qatar (both directly and indirectly). On 22 June 2017, during the Qatar diplomatic crisis, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Egypt, and Bahrain, as part of a list of 13 demands, demanded that Qatar close Middle East Eye, which they saw as sympathetic to the Muslim Brotherhood and a Qatari-funded and aligned outlet … On 20 October 2022, MEE cut ties with Palestinian journalist Shatha Hammad after it was discovered that she made a Facebook post in 2014 which praised Adolf Hitler for “sharing the same ideology” and the Holocaust. … Commentator Ibrahim Alkhamis writing in the Saudi newspaper Arab News claimed that the MEE of propagating rumours and fabrications regarding the Qatar’s state enemies such as Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Egypt, while being silent on the misdeeds of Qatars on the members of its royal family and said MEE functions as an “extension to Al Jazeera” without being accused as a state-owned news outlet
Amazing that this is getting downvoted. This is just the plain truth of the situation.
probably because it isn’t news but an opinion piece.
How many other opinion pieces get downvoted like this? I don’t think it’s that it’s an opinion peice. I think it’s an opinion many don’t want to hear.

Thanks. Corrected.
Didn’t Khashoggi write for MEE? I sure wonder why Saudi Arabia wouldn’t like MEE…
