    CODEPINK Protests at German Diplomatic Missions

    [CODEPINK and other peace activists outside the German Consulate in Los Angeles/Ryan Wentz — CODEPINK] From coast to coast, CODEPINK delegations protested at German diplomatic missions in support of Nicaragua’s case against Germany at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for complicity in Israel’s genocide that has killed or maimed over 100,000 Palestinians in Gaza.

  • Germany, Gaza and the World Court: Broadening the Scope of Genocide

    Can it get any busier?  The World Court, otherwise known as the International Court of Justice, has been swamped by applications on the subject of alleged genocide. The site of interest remains the Gaza Strip, the subject of unremitting slaughter since the October 7, 2023 cross-border attacks by Hamas against Israel.  The retaliation by Israel […]

  • “Genocide Enablers” Gaza And The Corporate Media

    “Genocide Enablers” Gaza And The Corporate Media

    A key function of the state-corporate media is to deny reality. They do supply news. But it is no accident that they supply news of a type that covers up the crimes of elite power. However, the appalling violence and destruction being inflicted in Gaza by Israel are simply too great to conceal. We may […]

  • Starvation in Gaza: The World Court’s Latest Intervention

    Rarely has the International Court of Justice been so constantly exercised by one topic during a short span of time.  On January 26, the World Court, considering a filing made the previous December by South Africa, accepted Pretoria’s argument that the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide was applicable to […]

    Traumatised Zionist mindset exposed by new Hollywood attack on Glazer for Oscar speech

    Laszlo Nemes, the Hungarian director of the award-winning Holocaust film Son of Saul, joins the elite mob determined to lynch film-maker Jonathan Glazer for trying to publicly prick Hollywood’s conscience at the Oscars ceremony last week and end its deafening silence in the midst of a plausible genocide in Gaza. Nemes’ statement is a fascinating […]

  • Conquest, War, Famine, and Death Hit You Straight in the Heart

    Conquest, War, Famine, and Death Hit You Straight in the Heart

    Heba Zagout (1984–2023), Gaza Peace, 2021. On 4 March, Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA) Philippe Lazzarini presented his startling report on the situation in Gaza (Palestine) to the UN General Assembly.

  • Aid Wars over Gaza: Resuming Funding to UNRWA

    The steady and ruthless campaign by Israel to internationally defund the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), is unravelling.  The lynchpin in the effort was a thin, poison pen dossier making claims that 12 individuals were Hamas operatives who had been involved in the October 7 attacks.  Within […]

  • There Will Be Reading and Singing and Dancing Even in the Darkest Times

    A Red Books Day event at the May Day Bookstore in Delhi (India), 2024. It is nearly impossible to think of joy while Israel continues its genocidal violence against Palestinians and while the terrible war escalates in the eastern flank of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Tens of thousands of people have been […]

  • Elite Fear Of The Public: Ukraine, Gaza and Assange

    Elite Fear Of The Public: Ukraine, Gaza and Assange

    It is a historical fact that powerful elites do not wish to be diverted from pursuing their selfish interests by the public. Minimal, unthreatening expressions of dissent may be tolerated in ostensible ‘democracies’. But public opinion needs to be managed, manipulated or, if necessary, simply ignored. After all, as Noam Chomsky has said, real ‘democracy is […]

  • Echoes of Conflict

    Europe was burning. Or so I had heard in many media outlets before I boarded a flight to Europe. According to various hysterical outlets in the West, philistines were surging up through Gibraltar and other southbound nodes of ingress to destabilize European culture, that high-flown redoubt of wine and song and literature and art. Lisbon, […]
