Pegasus: Who is Behind Media Smear Campaign against Morocco?
A major hostile media campaign is targeting Morocco in a bid to destabilize it through the Pegasus spyware case spearheaded by Forbidden Stories consortium and some NGOs in total violation of deontological ethics of journalism.
Morocco has made some European countries feel uncomfortable as they remained entrenched in their colonial shell.
The North African Kingdom has consolidated its international status after expanding its economic, political and diplomatic influence in Africa, irking Germany and France by such an outstanding performance.
Africa is liberating itself from the yoke of colonialism and standing up to the hegemony of Europe which is taking advantage of the continent’s natural wealth to serve its own citizens, while making poor Africans get poorer.
But this colonial mindset is over. With its banks operating in Africa, its telecom operator, agricultural know-how, investment in new energies and estate sector, Morocco is seen as a credible partner in the continent.
The tripartite agreement sealed between the USA, Morocco and Israel has shifted the regional order, leaving France, Spain and Germany fuming.
The baseless Pegasus case, which was reported by Le Monde, Mediapart, Radio France and German Süddeutsche Zeitung GmbH, undermines the credibility of these media outlets, while Amnesty International has long shown its hatred for Morocco.
A documentary broadcast by 2M TV channel on Pegasus has exposed the Western media false allegations about the use of this spyware in hacking phones of prominent personalities.
No serious investigation was conducted and no one verified the slanderous statements or press reports, said Olivier Baratelli, Morocco’s lawyer in the Pegasus case, stressing that the prosecuted media outlets have not produced any proof to back up their claims.
Furthermore, Mohamed Hajib, a former Moroccan terror convict currently living in Germany, had made reference to the Pegasus accusations against Morocco three days before they were published by the Western media outlets, raising questions on the goals of the puppeteers of the orchestrated anti-Moroccan campaign!
