Moroccan Political Leader Under Fire for Labeling Newspaper ’Zionist’

In a statement, the AMME criticized the former Head of Government for having made incendiary remarks against the daily Al Ahdath Al Maghribia, describing it in turn as "Zionist", an "intruder" and a newspaper that "works against the principles and values".

This attack by the Islamist PJD party, which is not the first of its kind, is a blatant call for violence, the association deplored.

The National Press Council must assume its responsibilities for the protection of the media and journalists from such acts and resort to all legal means to counter any attempt at intimidation they are subjected to, concluded the AMME.
