Summary This book finds that Al-Jazeeras coverage of Bahrain and Syria has conformed with Qatars foreign policy, throughout the last decade (2011-2021). Al-Jazeera Arabic adopted Qatars "double standards" Bpolicy in both countries in the beginning of the Arab Spring, framing Bahrains protests as a sectarian movement, while depicting the Syrian armed conflict as a legitimate "revolution" (2011-2013). The book observes that when ties between Qatar and Bahrain worsened during the 2017 Gulf crisis, Al-Jazeera Arabic has shifted its coverage from being "pro-Bahraini regime" to pro-protesters, focusing on violations and giving voice to activists (2014-2021). The book concludes that the lack of "Peace Journalism" framing in Al-Jazeeras coverage of Bahrains uprising and Syrias chemical weapons attacks has represented claims as facts, and justified military action against Syria. It also reveals distinctive differences between Al-Jazeera Arabic and English, with the former lacking objective reporting standards, and using more sectarian language than the latter. Zainab Abdul-Nabi received her PhD from the University of Sydney (USYD) in 2017 and has taught Media courses at the USYD and University of New South Wales (UNSW). Zainab published her latest research articles in: Global Media and Communication, Peace Review, New Media and Society, and Arab Media and Society.
