No matter how you may feel about (all) nation-state sponsored media outlets, AlJazeera deserves respect for this excellent footage they got from inside the factory. It's a few years old, but should have raised more alarm by now:

I held a high opinion of Aljazeera after they published "the lobby" (UK) version. It was an insanely level of investigate journalism.

But I was severely disappointed when the U.S version was prevented from screening due to lobbying of the Qatari government.

They are able to deliver very high quality work but they are not free to do so.


I dunno this video seems like a pretty typical overly stylized made for TV documentary. Lots of cuts in the editing plus not discussing the actual issues in any depth. Maybe the issues presented here are real, but the narration is unreliable.
