Last month two UK judges insisted on US assurances before they would agree to extradite Julian Assange to face a show trial for exposing US and UK war crimes – what the US prefers to characterise as 'espionage'.

Yesterday, at the eleventh hour, the US sent a series of…

Research shows terms like 'massacre' and 'slaughter' are only ever used by the New York Times to describe the killing of Israelis, never for the killing of Palestinians.

Now the Intercept has found the NYT memo that specifically bars its journalists, and even interviewees, from…

It's worth digging this clip out of the archives to remind ourselves that Rachel Riley has form. She has not only spewed racist, anti-Muslim talking points but has spread disinformation to justify genocide in Gaza. The October 7 video she says she knows exists doesn't exist.

There is a reason why Israel has been so ostentatious in its savaging of Gaza and its people. And it is the very same reason Israel felt emboldened to violate the diplomatic sanctity of Iran’s consulate in Damascus.

Because for decades Israel has been guaranteed protection and…

Why, after decades of debauched violence from Israel, backed at every turn by the West, have Washington and its allies suddenly become so interested in 'restraint'? 

Because on this rare occasion it serves western interests to calm the fires Israel is so determined to stoke.…

I shall be standing for election to Parliament as the member for Blackburn. This unexpected turn of events requires an honest declaration.

1) I am standing because of the Genocide in Gaza
2) I am standing because of the appalling pro-Genocide stance of…

In they keep coming – in their hundreds, in their thousands – one child after another slaughtered by Israel.

The western media lost interest – and made sure we lost interest too.

No doubt, Jesus would be truly ashamed that his spiritual legacy is being represented by a moral charlatan like Justin Welby.

A western media obsessed with the fate of the Israeli hostages never even notes the thousands of Palestinian hostages held by Israel’s occupation/ apartheid regime.

'The Israeli strike on Iran’s consulate came just as the Biden administration was finally running out of excuses for providing the weapons & diplomatic cover that has allowed Israel to slaughter, maim and orphan tens of thousands of Palestinian children in Gaza over six months.'

Imagine being inside Rachel Riley's head:

* She tells us she keeps herself out of central London on Saturdays because peaceful, mass rallies calling for a Gaza ceasefire supposedly pose some kind of violent threat to Jews.

* Except separately, she's told us: 'I don't look like…

Doublethink on BBC News at Ten tonight:

The US is working hard to prevent tensions between Israel and Iran dangerously escalating into regional war.

Meanwhile, US officials called Iran's attack on Israel 'a spectacular and embarrassing failure'.

In 1988, the US Navy shot down an Iranian airliner, killing all 290 civilians on board.

Recently declassified files show how the UK government offered immediate support to the US, and assisted in the cover-up.

🚨 Channel 4 update: Rachel Riley

'We have reminded Rachel of her obligations as a contributor to Channel 4 programming.' A Channel 4 spokesperson informed MailOnline.

Sorry COUNTDOWN, this simply isn't good enough.

People, we now have to send in our complaint through…

It was for his success in demystifying the way western elites have ordered the world for their benefit, and at a grave cost to wider humanity, that Julian Assange has been spent the past five years behind bars.

King Abdullah of Jordan has been in power for 25 years.

Before that, his dad ruled Jordan for 47 years.

But Western politicians & media will never call him a dictator or demand democracy & freedom.

Coz he’s a good puppet. 💪🏻

It’s the same in Middle East & all over the world.
