Jotam Kristoffer Confino

Why boycott?

Jotam Kristoffer Confino is an Israeli, far-right extremist Zionist who, on social media and the radical tabloid B.T., has shown unconditional support for the occupation state and its genocide against the Palestinians.

Background
Since the attack on October 7, 2023, Jotam Kristoffer Confino has repeatedly been accused of being pro-Israeli in his coverage and of spreading false information and Zionist propaganda. DR has, among other things, acknowledged a listener’s complaint that they should have disclosed that Confino is an editor at a British media outlet with a clear stance on the conflict. On social media, Confino is known as a very active debater and has initiated lawsuits against several debaters who disagree with him.

In February 2024, Confino faced criticism for a tweet containing unverified allegations from the Israeli occupation army that Hamas had used ambulances from the aid organization Red Crescent during the October 7 attack. According to the Secretary-General of the Danish Red Cross, the allegation put aid workers at risk, and when Confino was criticized for spreading the accusations, he ended up in a heated argument on X/Twitter with, among others, Enhedslisten’s Pelle Dragsted.

Shortly after, TV2 terminated his contract as Middle East correspondent, after which he was hired by B.T., where he took on the fight against Enhedslisten and various NGOs' Palestine support.

B.T.’s editor, Simon Richard Nielsen, emphasized that Confino was welcome to continue his activity on social media (source), and a quick look at his profiles on X/Twitter and Facebook makes it clear that he still holds strong opinions on the conflict.

For example, in October, he wrote in a post directed at Enhedslisten MP Trine Pertou Mach: “You are way out of line if you think you can get away with this. There are limits to what I will tolerate. Especially from someone in a party full of terror sympathizers.”

This happened after she criticized him for relaying Israeli accusations in B.T. that the UN in Lebanon was acting in Hamas’ favor.

In November 2024, he told Radio4 that "Israel’s (occupation state, ed.) war (genocide, ed.) is both legally and morally justified."
