Craig Murray’s jailing is the latest move in a battle to snuff out independent journalism
Craig Murray’s jailing is the latest move in a battle to snuff out independent journalism Craig Murray, a former ambassador to Uzbekistan, the father of a newborn child, a man in very poor health and one who has no prior convictions, will have to hand himself over to the Scottish police on Sunday morning. He […]
Craig Murray: The Decline of Western Power
Craig Murray: The Decline of Western Power The really interesting thing about the G7 summit is that it wasn’t interesting. Nobody expected it to change the world, and it won’t. U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and other leaders of the G7 watch the Red Arrows fly over in Carbis Bay, June 12. (Simon Dawson, No […]
Chomsky, Cockburn and Worthington Forced To Testify Only in Writing in Assange Case
Chomsky, Cockburn and Worthington Forced To Testify Only in Writing in Assange Case I really do not know how to report Wednesday’s events. Stunning evidence, of extreme quality and interest, was banged out in precis by the lawyers as unnoticed as bags of frozen chips coming off a production line. The court that had listened […]
The Terrifying Rise of the Zombie State Narrative
The Terrifying Rise of the Zombie State Narrative The ruling Establishment has learnt a profound lesson from the debacle over Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction. The lesson they have learnt is not that it is wrong to attack and destroy an entire country on the basis of lies. They have not learnt that lesson despite […]
Le Mesurier Gets Cross
Le Mesurier Gets Cross Perhaps the only fact on James Le Mesurier about which I would agree with the MSM war cheerleaders is that he was a very busy man. It is remarkable therefore that he found the time and inclination to follow “Philip Cross” on twitter. Given that “Philip Cross” has virtually never posted […]
Only Cowards And Sadists Support The Persecution Of Assange
Only Cowards And Sadists Support The Persecution Of Assange Former British ambassador Craig Murray has published a very disturbing account of Julian Assange’s court appearance yesterday which I recommend reading in full. There have been many reports published about Assange’s case management hearing, but the combination of Murray’s prior experience with torture victims, his familiarity with British […]
Tanker Seizures and the Threat to the Global Economy from Resurgent Imperialism
Tanker Seizures and the Threat to the Global Economy from Resurgent Imperialism The British seizure of the Iranian tanker off Gibraltar was illegal. There is no doubt of that whatsoever. The Iranian response to the seizure of its tanker in the Strait of Gibraltar, by the seizure of a British Tanker in the Strait of […]
The Ugly View of Western Democracy
The Ugly View of Western Democracy From flimsy false flags in the Gulf to the signing of Assange’s extradition warrant, Craig Murray reviews the abuses of power made obvious in the past two weeks. Standing back a little and surveying the events of the last couple of weeks, gives a bleak view of the current […]
The World: What is Really Happening
The World: What is Really Happening If you want to understand what is really happening in the world today, a mid-ranking official named Ian Henderson is vastly more important to you than Theresa May. You will not, however, find anything about Henderson in the vast majority of corporate and state media outlets. You may recall […]
The Struggle Is The Meaning 318
The Struggle Is The Meaning 318 There is no conceivable interest of the ordinary people of the Western world being served by the crazed decision of their governments to firmly take the Sunni side in the Sunni/Shia tensions of the Islamic world, and to do so in a fashion which deliberately exacerbates points of armed conflict […]
The Pivot Point
The Pivot Point The massive economic shock following the banking collapse of 2007–8 is the direct cause of the crisis of confidence which is affecting almost all the institutions of western representative democracy. The banking collapse was not a natural event, like a tsunami. It was a direct result of man-made systems and artifices which […]
Muellergate and the Discreet Lies of the Bourgeoisie
Muellergate and the Discreet Lies of the Bourgeoisie This cartoon seems to me very apposite. The capacity of the mainstream media repeatedly to promote the myth that Russia caused Clinton’s defeat, while never mentioning what the information was that had been so damaging to Hillary, should be alarming to anybody under the illusion that we […]
Continued American Occupation of the Middle East Does Not Suppress Terrorism, It Causes It
Continued American Occupation of the Middle East Does Not Suppress Terrorism, It Causes It Even the neo-con warmongers’ house journal The Guardian, furious at Trump’s attempts to pull US troops out of Syria, in producing a map to illustrate its point, could only produce one single, uncertain, very short pen stroke to describe the minute […]
There Is No Case Against Julian Assange So Lies Take the Place of Evidence
There Is No Case Against Julian Assange So Lies Take the Place of Evidence Julian Assange is not guilty of any crime. But Washington is going to convict him anyway. Documents are being fabricated to show that Assange met inside the Ecuadoran Embassy in London with Paul Manafort and some Russians. The logs of all […]
RT & Former UK Ambassador Exposing CIA-MI6 Control Over Western ‘News’ Media
RT & Former UK Ambassador Exposing CIA-MI6 Control Over Western ‘News’ Media It’s an old story, but each time that an example of it occurs, it is hidden, instead of reported. — The fact that America’s CIA has the cooperation of all major news-media in the the United States is well known and long-established, such […]
