Is a Glastonbury chant the real problem, or Israel’s genocidal violence in Gaza?

Israel, Starmer’s government and the media are fomenting a moral panic about words ‘glorifying violence’ towards the IDF, while glorifying the IDF’s all-too-real violence towards Palestinians.

Why BBC editors must one day stand trial for colluding in Israel’s genocide

In a confrontation with BBC news chief Richard Burgess, journalist Peter Oborne sets out six ways the state broadcaster has wilfully misled audiences on Israel’s destruction of Gaza.

Piers Morgan just can’t stop himself inciting against the Palestinian people

Through his dehumanisation of Palestinians, his racist incitements and mindless conflation of “Israelis” and “Jews”, Morgan continues to add fuel to the fire of genocide.

Israel is fully integrating its Gaza ‘food aid hubs’ into the genocide

Israel has been caught once again in a lie. For a genocidal state, there are no red lines. No one should be surprised that Israel is using its bogus ‘aid system’ to lure Palestinians into a death trap.

A short guide on how to starve a population to death

Your ‘aid’ system will lead to chaos, as desperate, starving people fight for food. That’s great. They look like a swarming mass of the very ‘human animals’ you were talking about from the start.

Israel’s claim that ‘Hamas is stealing aid’ is patently a lie. Here’s why

Western journalists – having promoted Israel’s lies for more than a year and half – have grown entirely insensible to their active collusion in genocide.

Jeremy Bowen’s interview with Gaza aid chief was shameful – and he knows it

There was no excuse for the BBC to follow Israel in treating the head of UNRWA as though he is aligned with terrorism. This kind of craven journalism just makes Israel’s job of genocide easier.

Theroux’s film on Israel’s violent settlers was a mirror. Resist the calls to look away

For once, the BBC aired a documentary showing Israeli society’s dark underbelly. The backlash is not because Louis Theroux got it wrong. It’s because his film tells us far too much about ourselves.

Starvation in Gaza is so bad even the BBC is covering it – and reporting it all wrong

The BBC’s role is not to keep viewers informed. It’s to persuade them a clear crime against humanity by Israel is, in fact, highly complicated geopolitics they cannot hope to understand.

‘Acclaimed’ public figures keep shilling for Israel’s genocide. They must be outed

Nineteen months into Israel’s slaughter of Gaza’s children, moral ghouls like Simon Shama and Simon Sebag Montefiore are still being given a platform to smear as ‘antisemites’ opponents of genocide.

Report on the chilling effect of counter-terrorism powers on journalism

This is my expert statement submitted to Home Secretary Yvette Cooper as part of Hamas’ legal appeal against its proscription as a terror group under UK law.

The drip-drip of slanted Gaza reporting erodes our sense of right and wrong

The media’s role is to disorientate us, so we disbelieve what we can see with our own eyes: that there is a genocide going on, and our own leaders are actively assisting it.

How is the media still getting the Gaza murdered paramedics story so wrong?

Israel’s execution of 15 emergency workers a month ago is incontrovertibly established. So why are the Guardian and other outlets still so ready to fudge the issue?

The complete idiot’s guide to world affairs

The left and right take the same reality-based view of the world but respond to it in different moral terms. Liberals, on the other hand, live in an alternate universe – of pure make-believe.

Would it be okay for Hamas to strike a hospital treating Benjamin Netanyahu?

Israel has justified bombing a Gaza hospital because an injured Hamas politician was there. The laws of war only ever seem to be forgotten when it is Israel violating them.

‘Where was the UN?’ asks freed Israeli captive. Its staff were busy being killed

Sympathy for Israeli former captive Eli Sharabi must not obscure the bigger picture: he has allowed himself to be recruited to Israel’s propaganda campaign for genocide.

Israel doesn’t care about the captives. It always planned to reboot the genocide

It is President Trump and his administration that must be held responsible for every Palestinian death from here on out.
