The west was silent while journalist killers arrested an American journalist
We know what Israel thinks of journalists in Palestine because it’s killed something like 175 of them, and now we know what it would do to western journalists who report the facts because it caught one of them. I’m talking about Jeremy Loffredo here. Now before I go any further, I would like to point… Continue reading

Why is the ‘liberal’ media peddling the vilest genocide apologism?
I can’t put this strongly enough. Howard Jacobson’s article in today’s Observer newspaper may be one the vilest pieces of journalism published in Britain in living memory, arguing that any reporting of Israel’s documented slaughter of many thousands of Palestinian children in Gaza is a “blood libel” and antisemitic. It is pure genocide apologism. Continue reading

What is behind Washington’s Vicious Attack on RT and other Alternative Voices?
Washington as a failing player in great-power-competition is trying to rig the context by acting as the umpire. It is caught in its old paradigm of competing by posturing, while the world has moved on to relations based on practical proposals and tangible results. Continue reading

UK police have arrested another pro-Palestinian journalist
What seems clear now is that UK counter-terrorism police have a list of every pro-Palestinian journalist, blogger and prominent social media user, and they’re trawling through their posts to find an excuse to arrest them. If you wonder why France is so keen on capturing Telegram, it’s because it’s an intelligence goldmine with vast activist… Continue reading

Richard Medhurst and the Right to Armed Resistance
We were waiting for Richard Medhurst to arrive and join our panel at the Beautiful Days festival, when he was arrested and imprisoned for 23.5 hours. Obviously we were all worried sick about him.
