    The World Confronts the Genocide Washington Is Trying to Bury

  • Israeli Propaganda: Their Hasbara Instruction Manual

    “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes” (attributed to Mark Twain). [A misattribution. — DV ed] Israel’s image is now so badly damaged that it is desperately stepping up its ‘hasbara’ (meaning propaganda and disinformation) programme on all channels, especially social media. In the past they’ve […]

  • From Illusion to Real Peace: Trump’s Test in Gaza and Ukraine

    United States President Donald Trump styles himself as a peacemaker. In his rhetoric, he claims credit for his efforts to end the wars in Gaza and Ukraine.

  • How can the British Establishment maintain credibility in proscribing a non-violent direct action group as a terrorist organization?

    In proscribing Palestine Action as a terrorist organization, along with criminalizing many of those who have challenged this government policy decision, the British Government has opened itself up to criticism and ridicule.

  • Extending the Cultural Boycott of Apartheid South Africa to Israel

The Black Consciousness Movement was started under […]

  • The ICJ, Israel, and Humanitarian Aid in Gaza

    Few times in its history has the International Court of Justice been this busy, if ever. For anyone ignorant of the world court’s existence till now, it has blanketed news coverage with provisional orders and advisory opinions on the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. Each order is accompanied by another layering of exasperation and, it must […]

  • Israel Tortured And Sexually Humiliated Greta Thunberg

    In an interview with Swedish paper Aftonbladet, Greta Thunberg has corroborated earlier eyewitness reports that she and her fellow Global Sumud Flotilla activists were subjected to monstrous abuses by Israeli officials after being abducted from their boats carrying aid for Palestinians in Gaza.

  • Inchoate Blobs: The National Press Club Cancels Chris Hedges

    It seemed an odd thing to begin with. Australia’s National Press Club is a rather ordinary, stuffy institution, where enlightened, let alone contentious thought, rarely intrudes. For those guests of unorthodox disposition, questions of establishment swinishness await to douse any fiery rebelliousness. That they had invited war correspondent Chris Hedges, former Middle East Bureau Chief […]
