Fourteen years ago, the talmudic and eschatological Netanyahu was questioned by the casual Dana Weiss in an interview published on the Israeli government website. At the 25th minute and 33rd second mark [1], to the question: "What is the biggest problem facing the next generation, and what must we do today to solve it?" The pugnacious…
Since the heroic Al-Aqsa Flood took place 21 months ago on Oct. 7, 2023, the Zionist state of Israel — with the military backing of the U.S. — has carried out an unprecedented racist genocidal campaign against the people of Gaza, played out daily in real time on social media. No one — including children…
On this week’s edition of “MintCast,” host Mnar Adley speaks with Dr. Mohammed Tahir about his time working in hospitals in Gaza, Greta Thunberg’s “Freedom Flotilla,” Iraq’s unwavering support for Palestine, and the urgent need for unity in the Islamic world. Dr. Tahir is a British-Iraqi surgeon specializing in trauma, orthopedics, and peripheral nerve care.…
This week on “The Watchdog,” Lowkey welcomes returning guest, Ahmed Alnaouq, to discuss his new, best-selling book and his spat with Piers Morgan. Ahmed Alnaouq is a writer and journalist who grew up in central Gaza and now lives in the United Kingdom. In 2015, he co-founded We Are Not Numbers, a nonprofit organization dedicated…
With over half a million people in Gaza on the brink of starvation and aid groups warning of an “imminent famine,” Israel has agreed to allow a token number of relief trucks into the besieged enclave. But what’s entering Gaza now isn’t humanitarian aid, it’s a Trojan horse. A new, U.S.-backed private aid scheme staffed…
A war has erupted among right-wing commentators, with the term “woke right” emerging as the weapon of choice. At the center of this MAGA movement schism is the issue of Israel and a growing conservative backlash over the refusal of self-described opponents of cancel culture to stand up for the free speech rights of Americans…
Under the pretext of dismantling Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) programs—widely unpopular among American conservatives—the powerful Heritage Foundation has begun to extend its campaign to anti-war activism and leftist causes on university campuses. The Trump administration appears to be enacting this agenda step by step. DEI initiatives have become a fault line in America’s ever-deepening…
Ever since July 29, Britain has been plunged into crisis, with incendiary far-riot rights sending towns and cities across the country spiraling into states of emergency. Vast mobs of armed, angry thugs, motivated by racist, Islamophobic animus, have vandalized homes, property and places of worship, violently clashed with police, and targeted hotels housing refugees with…
On July 10, it was announced that social media giant Meta would broaden the scope of its censorship and suppression of content related to the Gaza genocide. Under the new policy, Facebook and Instagram posts containing “derogatory or threatening references to ‘Zionists’ in cases where the term is used to refer to Jews or Israelis”…
One of the most extraordinary – yet unremarked upon – developments since Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza began has been the British monarchy’s brazen jettisoning of any pretense of “political neutrality.” Queen Elizabeth II, publicly at least, rigidly refrained from commenting on current affairs or giving the vaguest appearance of taking a particular “side” on…
Remarks by Israel’s minister of national security, Itamar Ben-Gvir, saying his rights are superior to those of Arabs. He received the precise reaction he wanted – his comments were posted and repeated everywhere. His face was shown, and the video of him making these comments made waves worldwide. He, of course, knew that this would…
The late Israeli commentator, Uri Avnery, expressed his concern about the Israeli-Palestinian struggle taking on a more religious character. At first glance, the statement may seem baffling. If Israel is a ‘Jewish State’ that serves as a ‘homeland’ for all Jewish people, everywhere, does it not follow that the ‘struggle,’ at least from an Israeli…
The Biden administration has released the country’s first national strategy for combating antisemitism, a landmark plan aimed at addressing a growing problem.” This is from a piece in NPR titled, “The first national strategy for fighting antisemitism is finally here. What’s in it?” Spoiler alert: it is not about fighting antisemitism or any other sort…
In a self-congratulatory article published in the Atlantic in 2017, Yossi Klein Halevi describes Israeli behavior at the just-conquered holy Muslim shrines in Occupied East Jerusalem in 1967 as “an astonishing moment of religious restraint.” “The Jewish people had just returned to its holiest site, from which it had been denied access for centuries, only…

Workers and other critics of the plan called it the “big ugly” bill, because they consider it the largest legislative theft of wealth from the working class and transfer to the richest top 1% in U.S. history. Trump infamously dubbed it the “Big, Beautiful Bill,” and the commander-in-thief signed his administration’s 900+ page tax and…
Home » Editorials » Budget bill exposes both capitalist parties It was a rare occasion. The headlines of the corporate media provided a succinct analysis of the U.S. mammoth budget bill that became law July 4.
