Hasbara’s Birth: Israel’s War on Media Exposed
Monday, 11 November 2024 — Global Delinquents

Kit Klarenberg

Ever since Israel’s October 1st invasion of Lebanon, the Western media has been a witting, willing accomplice to the sadistic, criminal assault. Mainstream journalists have worked overtime to whitewash, distort, and conceal the Zionist entity’s murderous rampage, which has claimed thousands of civilian lives, and injured and displaced many more. Serving as Tel Aviv’s perpetual megaphone and apologist is a role for which major news outlets have eagerly volunteered for decades. Their crusade has only become turbocharged following the Gaza genocide erupting.

Now is an historical moment for recognition of not what Cuba has failed to do, but for appreciation of how much it has achieved with so little and under such adverse circumstances not of its making.

No comments on Sky Lies

Sky Lies
Sunday, 10 November 2024 — Al Mayadeen English

The British media outlet Sky News has removed footage from its social media platforms showing Israeli fans chanting racist slogans before the UEFA Europa League match between Ajax and Maccabi Tel Aviv in Amsterdam. This action has led to accusations of censorship and bias.

The video, initially shared with the caption, “Israeli fans tearing down Palestinian flags and chanting anti-Arab racist slogans,” was taken down, sparking criticism. Some accused Sky News of self-censorship. In a subsequent post, the network stated: “Editor’s Note: This is a re-edit of a previous video which didn’t meet Sky News’ standards for balance and impartiality.”

Tensions escalated in Amsterdam late on Thursday as Israeli fans clashed with pro-Palestinian demonstrators around the Ajax-Maccabi Tel Aviv match. Social media videos showed Maccabi supporters tearing down Palestinian flags and attacking Arab taxi drivers.

No comments on Watch: Whitewashing ‘Israel’s’ war crimes? CNN’s problematic report on soldiers’ mental health

Watch: Whitewashing ‘Israel’s’ war crimes? CNN’s problematic report on soldiers’ mental health
Saturday, 9 November 2024 — Al Mayadeen English

CNN’s article titled “He got out of Gaza, but Gaza did not get out of him” has sparked a storm of backlash on social media. The piece portrays Israeli occupation soldiers as victims of mental health struggles post-combat in Gaza, while conveniently glossing over the atrocities committed by these same soldiers against Palestinians.

The same soldiers whom CNN presents as “victims” have been instrumental in demolishing homes, burning people alive, imposing blockades, and creating mass graves. Yet the piece fails to mention any of this context, instead painting the occupiers as broken and misunderstood, struggling with the horrors of war—horrors they themselves inflicted on others. How is that okay?

US election 2024: inflation, immigration and identity
Saturday, 9 November 2924 — Michael Roberts

By michael roberts

As the FT put it: “In the end, it wasn’t even close. A presidential election long forecast to dance on a knife’s edge very quickly turned out to be a rout for Donald Trump.”

Trump polled 73.4m votes or 50.7% of the those who voted, while Harris polled 60m or 47.7% of the vote. Third party candidates mustered just 1.6%. Trump’s 4.3m lead was more than Biden had in 2020, or Hillary Clinton had over Trump in 2016.

Horrifying testimony of scenes in a detention center for Palestinians appear to constitute an unprecedented public admission of torture by Israeli forces. The testimony was delivered by an Israeli reporter who served as an intel officer after October 7.

Israeli football hooligans chanted “finish the Arabs” before being beaten up so bad their government has to save them

Israel’s Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters, notorious for their racist chants, decided to make those chants as they watched their team get beat 5-0. Chanting for the Israeli army to finish off the Arabs and singing a song which says “there’s no school in Gaza because the children are dead.”

They also committed racist attacks and torn down Palestine flags. However they were quickly beaten up and humiliated by the Arab population of Amsterdam that finished them off instead.

A few weeks before the creation of the State of Israel, Shepard Rifkin, a New York-based representative of the Stern Group, a Zionist paramilitary organization founded in Mandatory Palestine, requested that representatives of the group meet with Albert Einstein in the United States, “the greatest Jewish figure of the time” according to journalist I.F. Stone. Einstein’s response was unequivocal:

Ōriwa Tahupōtiki Haddon (Ngāti Ruanui), Reconstruction of the Signing of the Treaty of Waitangi, c. 1940.

Dear friends,

Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research.

For the past few weeks I have been on the road in Aotearoa (New Zealand) and Australia at the invitation of groups such as Te Kuaka, Red Ant, and the Communist Party of Australia. Both countries were shaped by British colonialism, marked by the violent displacement of native communities and theft of their lands. Today, as they become part of the US-led militarisation of the Pacific, their native populations have fought to defend their lands and way of life.

How Trump Won and What Black People Should Do

Margaret Kimberley, BAR Executive Editor and Senior Columnist

Donald Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris must be a wake up call to Black people. The Democratic Party is a dead end and a movement killer. Our survival depends on getting that corrupt wing of the duopoly out of our lives and out of our politics.

The richest 1% owns more than TWICE as much wealth as 6.9 billion people and the super-rich one percent of the world’s population has accumulated twice as much wealth as the remaining 90 percent, global charity Oxfam said in a newly-released report. The world’s richest 1% emit double the carbon of the poorest 50%, the 2020 Oxfam study found.
