    Why the western media is afraid of Julian Assange

    Originally published: Jonathan Cook Blog on January 30, 2023 (more by Jonathan Cook Blog)

    The appalling attack on him. Those who more than 30 years ago put a fatwa on his head after he wrote the novel, “The Satanic Verses,” made this assault possible. They deserve contempt. I wish him a speedy recovery.

    Originally published: Dissident Voice on March 26, 2021 (more by Dissident Voice)  |

    Welcome to the age of fear. Nothing is more corrosive of the democratic impulse than fear. Left unaddressed, it festers, eating away at our confidence and empathy.

    Originally published: Dissident Voice on January 11, 2021 (more by Dissident Voice)  |

    The Guardian’s deceit-riddled new statement betrays both Julian Assange and journalism

    Originally published: Dissident Voice on September 27, 2020 (more by Dissident Voice)  |

    In my recent post on the current hearings at the Old Bailey over Julian Assange’s extradition to the United States, where he would almost certainly be locked away for the rest of his life for the crime of doing journalism, I made two main criticisms of the Guardian. A decade ago, remember, the newspaper worked […]

    Guerin had dared, unlike any of her colleagues in the western media, to allude to the terrible price inflicted on the Palestinian people by the west’s decision to help the Zionist movement create a Jewish state shortly after the Holocaust. The Palestinians were dispossessed of their homeland as apparent compensation–at least for those Jews who became citizens of Israel–for Europe’s genocidal crimes.

    Jewish Labour Movement was revived to deal with Corbyn

    Originally published: True Publica on April 26, 2019 (more by True Publica)  |

    The Jewish Labour Movement likes to date its origins to the Poale Zion organisation, which was founded in 1903. A socialist society, Poale Zion affiliated itself not only with the British Labour party but also with a wide range of anti-Palestinian Zionist organisations such as the World Zionist Organisation and the Israeli Labour party.

    The attack on Facebook is not for our benefit

    Originally published: True Publica on February 20, 2019 (more by True Publica)  |

    It’s some achievement to get me sympathising with Mark Zuckerberg. But denunciations from a powerful combination of a parliamentary committee in the UK and self-appointed watchdogs of the new media like the Guardian almost managed it. – Jonathan Cook
