Labeviere faults media’s failure in reporting facts

PARIS – International counterterrorism expert Richard Labeviere said Monday that the Center for Middle East Studies in Paris (CEMO) is especially focused on violent activities happening on the ground at the international level.

He added at a conference organized by the center in French capital Paris on the dangers posed by the thinking of the Muslim Brotherhood on Western societies and values that so far the Israeli army had killed 40 Palestinians near the joint border between Israel and the blockaded Gaza Strip.

International media, he said, is proving an extreme failure in reporting the facts on the ground.

Labeviere added that the same media reported developments in Syria in a way far away from objectivity and independence.

He highlighted the importance of discussion forums and debates on various developments on the international scene for reaching a better understanding of these developments.

Titled "The Danger of Muslim Brotherhood's Thoughts on Western Values", the conference is attended by the members of CEMO's Consulting Committee.

Those attending included international counterterrorism expert Roland Jacquard. They also included journalists Atmane Tazaghart and Ian Hamel, who are focused on covering terrorist and takfiri groups. A host of Arab and European public figures is also attending the event.
