Journalist David Sheen faces lawsuit from Israeli general Israel Ziv

A retired Israeli general with a history of threatening reporters is suing an independent journalist for defamation, after the journalist included him on a list of leading racists in Israel.

While the journalist asserts his right to state his opinion, Israel’s laws don’t always land on the side of a free press.
At the beginning of this year, David Sheen authored what has become his annual list published by The Electronic Intifada of “Israel’s racist ringleaders.”
The list, published this year on 3 January, cites 10 Israelis in positions of power and influence who have expressed or acted on deep antipathy towards migrants and refugees from African states.
