A lesson to Israelis is.
Don't occupy Palestinians and end the Apartheid.
Otherwise the oppressed will rise up and fight back and take hostages and then your IOF Airforce will attack you with Apache Helicopters.
Peace now. ✌️ ☮️

It’s hard to grasp the BBC’s systematic attempt to launder Israeli propaganda until you see the sheer scale of it. Here's a compilation of them doing it at 2x speed.
The latest was on Newsnight on 4 November. When Bernie Sanders called Israel’s government extremist, Victoria Derbyshire answered for it: “And the Israeli government would deny that they are extremists.”
As this video shows, BBC presenters repeatedly do this as guests describe Israel’s crimes: “Israel would say.” “Israel would deny.” “They would reject that.”
We counted 70 of these denials and justifications in 52 aired interviews. The BBC calls this impartiality. But in not one of those 52 did a presenter raise any of these words from Israel’s own leaders:
- “We are fighting human animals.” Yoav Gallant, 9 October 2023
- “It is an entire nation out there that is responsible.” Isaac Herzog, 12 October 2023
- “They will not receive a drop of water or a single battery until they leave the world.” Israel Katz, 13 October 2023
- “Remember what Amalek did to you.” Benjamin Netanyahu, 3 November 2023
- Starving two million people in Gaza until the hostages came back might be “justified and moral”. Bezalel Smotrich, 5 August 2024
On 10 October 2023, Tahani Mustafa told the BBC that Israeli forces were not distinguishing civilians from fighters. The presenter replied: “They would reject that.” Mustafa then had to bring up Gallant’s “human animals” herself. The BBC supplied the denial. The guest had to supply Israel’s own words.
That is cherry-picking. The Royal Charter requires the BBC to be impartial, and the public pays for it through the licence fee. In these interviews, it handed its audience Israel’s denials and left out its leaders’ own words, during a genocide streamed live to the world.
We have archived the BBC’s coverage for three years, and we are now counting all of it: 50,000 video clips and many more written excerpts.
We are calling this first part: "BBC: The Would Say Files".
Handing Israel its denials is only one of the ways the BBC launders Israeli propaganda, so we will count every other technique too. Over the next few weeks, we will announce each milestone as we complete the report.
These are the first results, with every clip, quote and source: newscord.org/editorials/bbc-…

Iranian strength is what killed the Republicans.
Vice President JD Vance made the surprising admission on social media that Trump’s war with Iran was what caused the massive Democratic Party sweep of the midterm elections, stating plainly that “The reason we lost is the war.”
Saying “the real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone,” Vance noted that a poll found Trump 2024 voters who ditched the president’s party in 2026 gave four main answers to the question of what the Republicans could do to win them back: “1) End the war, 2) Focus on cost of living/inflation, 3) Put America First , 4) Change our relationship to Israel.”
All four of these answers tie directly in to Trump’s decision to launch an unprovoked war of aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran. The war itself, failing to put America first, and Washington’s grotesque alliance with the state of Israel are all straightforward references to Trump’s warmongering in the middle east. Cost of living/inflation is also strongly related since the blockades resulting from Trump’s war have been costing every American household thousands of dollars in rising fuel and grocery prices.
That last one is the real story of this election. As is often the case, economic concerns ranked as the number one issue among US voters in the lead-up to the midterm elections, and one of the major reasons why Americans have been struggling economically is because of the war in Iran.
So the story isn’t that Americans spontaneously transformed into a country full of tender-hearted peaceniks in November 2026. The story is that Iran was able to impose an economic cost on ordinary Americans for the actions of their evil government.
The average American is a propaganda-addled empire zombie who has been indoctrinated into cold-hearted indifference to their government’s abuses in the global south. American voters didn’t reject the war in Iran because they believe it’s immoral to bomb schools and civilian infrastructure in depraved wars of aggression overseas, they rejected it because it was costing them more to fill up their pickup trucks, and they were having to pay more money for their buckets of Mountain Dew and ranch dressing.
If Trump had won the war in four to six weeks as he initially claimed he would, his monstrous attack on Iran would have been no more consequential in the polls than his regime change interventionism in Venezuela. It is only because Iran succeeded in doing whatever it needed to do to retain the military strength needed to impose a financial toll on the American electorate that the Republicans lost the Senate for years to come. War with Iran is now officially political poison because of Iranian strength.
US officials love to whine and complain that Iran spends its money on its military instead of on the Iranian people (though the United States is literally the absolute dead-last country on earth who has any business airing such a grievance), and to this day they’re still weeping crocodile tears about the way Tehran aggressively smacked down the CIA/Mossad uprising at the beginning of the year. But Iran has shown the world that a nation must retain its strength if it wants to retain its sovereignty and avoid being turned into another resource extraction scam for the US empire.
Every country that retains the necessary muscle to beat back the US empire’s efforts to absorb it into its power umbrella invariably gets smeared by the imperial propaganda machine as a tyrannical and despotic rogue state, but it is the US empire who makes it necessary for governments to exert force if they don’t want to be replaced with subservient US puppet regimes. Western propaganda likes to frame the global struggle as free democracies versus oppressive autocracies, but really it’s just nations who wish to retain their sovereignty versus the empire who wants to take that sovereignty away from them. It is the fault of the US empire that the only nations who have thus far resisted absorption are the ones who retain enough military strength and domestic control to do so.
The United States didn’t retreat from Vietnam because the Americans suddenly developed a conscience, it retreated because the Vietnamese fought like lions and kept sending home coffins draped in red, white and blue. The Republicans didn’t lose the midterms because Americans dislike war, they lost because the Iranians beat the shit out of them.

I tweeted about this segment yesterday, which I observed on the sidelines while waiting for my 1-on-1 with @piersmorgan. The video is now out:
@BlaiseMisztal of the Jewish Institute for National Security of America was on with @joekent16jan19
and Joe absolutely crushed him!
Piers asked Blaise if Israel has nuclear weapons, and Blaise gave the typical Israel lobby answer - feigning ignorance and claiming that he didn't know if Israel does or doesn't.
This annoyed the hell out of Piers, who accused Blaise of lying, but Joe came in with the knockout blow:
How can you claim to KNOW that Iran has a nuclear weapons program but NOT KNOW that Israel has nuclear weapons???

Let's be precise about what the Epstein network actually was.
Not a "sex scandal." Not a tabloid story about a weird billionaire and his famous friends. Not a trafficking case in the sanitized, clinical language that makes it sound like a logistics problem.
It was a blackmail infrastructure for the ruling class.
Epstein didn't accumulate powerful men by accident. He accumulated them by design.
The private island. The private jet logs. The hidden cameras. The underage girls.
This was an intelligence operation.
A systematic, decades-long project to compromise the people who run governments, banks, media companies, universities, and courts.
And when he was arrested the second time, when it was finally impossible to make it disappear:
He died in federal custody.
Suicide, they said.
In a cell where the cameras malfunctioned.
With guards who had both fallen asleep.
After his previous suicide attempt had already put him on watch status.
The medical examiner hired by his brother found evidence consistent with homicide. The official medical examiner ruled it suicide.
And the name list, the full, unredacted list of everyone Epstein brought to that island and those houses and those parties, remains sealed.
Protected by the same judicial system that is supposed to protect you.
This is not a conspiracy theory.
The documents, the flight logs, the depositions, the testimony, all of it is real, much of it is public, and what it shows is a power structure that protects itself from accountability at every level.
The people on that list run your country.
They run your media.
They run your courts.
They are still running everything.
And they will call you a "conspiracy theorist" for noticing.

Hey @grok, concise no spin.
One of the 9/11 hijackers, Ziad Jarrah, had relatives entangled and serving in multiple intelligence agencies.
One relative, Assem Jarrah, was linked with German and European intelligence, and his business card literally survived the wreckage of Flight 93, tied to a top 9/11 operative.
Then in 2008, two more Jarrah relatives were arrested in Lebanon for espionage and treason. They had long been on a spy payroll, surveilling Hezbollah sites and scouting locations just before two major political assassinations in Syria.
@grok, state the country and agency these brothers were charged for working for.
Country and agency only.

Carney just announced that Canada will violate a court order by barring Russian players from the upcoming World Junior Hockey Championship. While they bar Russians teenagers, Israeli athletes are ok.
On Friday the Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that Russia must be reinstated to international hockey competitions. The court overturned a ban imposed following Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The Russian Ice hockey federation said they plan to participate in the World Junior Hockey tournament in Alberta, which begins in six weeks.
On Tuesday Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that Canada will ignore the court ruling and deny entry to Russian and Belarusian athletes so long as there’s a war in Ukraine. “Russia and Belarus are supporting this illegal and unjustified horrific war in Ukraine, as long as that's going on, there will be none of those athletes competing for their countries in Canada. So if you're asking specifically about the World Juniors, the Russians will not be there,” the PM told the press.
Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine was illegal and that war is brutal, but it was provoked and is being prolonged by NATO. As I’ve detailed repeatedly, Canada played a substantial role in laying the groundwork for Russia’s invasion by promoting NATO expansion eastward, helping oust an elected neutrality-minded president in 2014 and assisting efforts to sabotage the Minsk II peace accord.
By any serious metric, the immorality of what’s transpired in Gaza is far more straightforward. In that case a people who were mostly ethnically cleansed from their homes in 1948 and have faced a ferocious two-decade long siege, with periodic ‘mowing the lawn’ mass killings, attacked the occupier. The explicitly supremacist state then used the Palestinians resistance to launch a live streamed genocide against a population facing uniquely isolated living conditions.
Yet Canada opposes Israel’s exclusion from sports or song competitions. Amidst the genocide IOF veterans have competed in the Invictus Games in Vancouver, Canada played Israel in tennis in Halifax and the Israel Premier Tech cycling team competed at the Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal. Additionally, notes Ben Thompson, Israelis competed at Skate Canada International, World Skydiving Championships, Artistic Swimming World Cup and Maccabi Games in Canada. A former IOF soldier also played an MLS match in Montreal.
Taking a slightly different angle, Davide Mastracci posted to X, “Mark Carney has let Netanyahu fly over Canada repeatedly, in violation of the ICC arrest warrant he's bound to uphold. He’s now refusing to let Russian athletes into Canada, citing the Ukraine war. Carney will punish teen hockey players, but let a genocidal leader off the hook.”
Even before the past three years of Israeli horrors in Gaza, Lebanon, Iran and elsewhere, the Israel/US vs Russia sports boycott double standard was flagrant. In March 2023 I asked then sports minister Pascale St-Onge about her push to bar Russian and Belarusian athletes from international sports competitions in response to Moscow’s illegal invasion of Ukraine. As an assistant sought to whisk the sports minister out of the room, I asked whether she felt the same way about US athletes after that country invaded Iraq? St-Onge smirked and walked away.
I followed the minister out of the room to ask whether Canada’s athletes should also have been excluded after this country led the 2011 NATO bombing of Libya, which remains divided and devastated. She continued to move towards the elevator while her assistant sought to (politely) disrupt my line of inquiry.
As the minister waited to descend, I asked what she thought about Israeli athletes participating in international competitions despite its apartheid and illegal occupation of Palestinian land. St-Onge waited uncomfortably. As she entered the elevator, I again asked about Israel and gave the minister a final opportunity to reply by hitting the elevator button to re-open a near closed door.
Several million viewed the clip on various social media platforms while it was reported on by Chinese, Indian, Russian, Qatar and Venezuelan media. While it was a dramatic interaction, the video’s popularity was due to the flagrant double standards it exposed. It also (indirectly) highlight media complicity in the racist, imperial double standards.
Carney’s ‘ban Russian teenage hockey players but allow Israeli soldiers to play’ double standard is absent from dominant media reports. Wednesday’s front page Globe and Mail story on the ban ignores it while (liberal) Toronto Star columnist Bruce Arthur does the same. Arthur writes that “Russia is the enemy of Europe, and of free societies everywhere” and his only mention of the US, which has bombed nine countries over the past eighteen months, is to complain that Trump’s “aligned with Russia on issue after issue.”
Will any journalist with access ask Carney, foreign minister Anita Anand or sports minister Adam van Koeverden “why is Canada defying a court ruling to bar Russian athletes but embraces Israeli athletes?”

"If we come to logic... the entire purpose of the Human Rights Act is to defend the citizen against executive overreach, against abuse of power by the executive. And what the judges are saying is that there can be no abuse of power by the executive because they're democratically elected... In which case, what's the point in having a Human Rights Act?"
Standing outside the Supreme Court in London following the appeal against the proscription of Palestine Action on behalf of Huda Ammori, Craig Murray breaks down the alarming reality of executive overreach and the erosion of judicial accountability in the UK. When the courts defer entirely to the Secretary of State, claiming the executive cannot commit an abuse of power simply because they are democratically elected, the foundational purpose of the Human Rights Act collapses. If citizens are stripped of their livelihoods, assets, and legal recourse without independent judicial protection, we cross a dangerous line. As Murray highlights, it is a massive mistake to confuse the law with justice when the two no longer meet. Watch the full breakdown and share your thoughts on where this leaves our rights.

Israel apologists are unique in the way literally all of them constantly pretend to believe things they don't actually believe.
Over the years I've argued with members of every political ideology on earth, and I've never encountered any group who does this like Zionists do. Other ideological factions might hold idiotic and downright evil beliefs, but for the most part they tend to actually believe the things they are saying.
Not so with Israel supporters. I've been interacting with them for years, often over extended conversations just to understand their arguments and their worldview, and what stands out the most in these interactions is the way they constantly lie about what they think is true.
They'll pretend to believe a given high-profile critic of Israeli atrocities hates Jews just to help marginalize their voice. They'll pretend to believe Iran is on the cusp of developing nuclear weapons in order to help drum up support for war. They'll pretend to believe antisemitism is one of the most urgent and dangerous threats to our society today in order to push for more laws against pro-Palestine protests. They'll pretend to believe every human rights group on earth is lying about Israel committing genocide in order to help Israel commit more genocidal crimes against humanity.
Over the years I've interacted many people who misrepresent my beliefs and the beliefs of other people, but Israel supporters are the only ideological group I've ever encountered who consistently misrepresent THEIR OWN beliefs.
I've seen it over and over and over again. I'll corner them on one of the claims they are making about what they believe, completely dismantling their given reasons for why they believe what they claim to believe, and they'll just shift to some other reason justifying the existence of their belief.
And this should not be surprising. If you would support genocide, ethnic cleansing and apartheid, of course you would lie about your own beliefs to advance those agendas. Bad people do bad things. If genocide, ethnic cleansing and apartheid do not bother you, then you are unlikely to have ethical qualms about communicating without intellectual honesty.
These days I mostly just respond to such people by saying "You don't really believe that. You're just pretending to believe that in order to advance the interests of a genocidal apartheid state." It's the only way to deal with a group who literally never engages in good faith on any level.
Israel supporters need to do this because their worldview is not grounded in truth or morality. They don't hold their position because it is morally or factually correct, they hold it to advance personal agendas like career advancement, ladder-climbing, getting into Heaven, getting those tasty hasbara bucks, or winning the approval of their Zionist friends and family.
In a healthy society, supporting Israel would be as culturally toxic as loving Adolf Hitler or advocating the legalization of child sex trafficking. But we do not live in a healthy society. We live under a murderous, globe-spanning empire that is held together by lies and endless bloodshed. Zionism is rewarded and amplified because its evils are shared with the evils of the rest of the western imperial power structure which is choking our world to death.
