9:49Now PlayingBritish-Syrian Journalist Richard Medhurst describes for Jimmy his arrest at Heathrow Airport under the UK's Terrorism Act for his reporting on Gaza—only to have the case transferred to Austria, where prosecutors absurdly accused him of being a member of Hamas's military wing (despite Medhurst being Catholic). Medhurst describes how Austrian authorities raided his home, seized $30,000 worth of equipment including analog microphones, and have kept him under investigation for over a year without charges—all to physically cripple his ability to report.
He also notes that his YouTube channel has been demonetized for two years, but he refuses to self-censor, instead writing a book on cybersecurity to help others protect themselves. Medhurst concludes that Western governments are the real criminals for violating freedom of speech and international law, and that journalists must actively remind themselves that they are not the terrorists—the state departments are.
