January 21st, 2024 by Jonathan Cook - Why is the Real Story of October 7 Off-limits to Western, but not Israeli, Media?
Israeli army ‘ethics’ chief says crimes committed by soldiers against Israel’s own civilians are ‘horrifying’. How is this not newsworthy for British journalists?

South Africa and Israel bear the trauma of Europe’s long history of racial supremacism, but each has drawn precisely opposite lessons

October 30th, 2023 by Jonathan Cook - With Hamas Gone, Gaza Still Wouldn’t be Free
As a classic settler-colonial state, Israel is doing the only thing it knows how to do. So long as the West keeps cheerleading, that includes genocide

September 15th, 2023 by Jonathan Cook - We’re rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic: don’t ask me to help out
