| Document:Beware the Cult of Cadwalladr | blog post | 22 January 2022 | Craig Murray | The present libel trial between Arron Banks and Carole Cadwalladr is therefore a struggle between two deeply unpleasant people. Cadwalladr’s lies, in my view, are political and still come within the realm of free speech. I support her right to say it, just as I support my right to denounce and expose her as an utterly unprincipled and fraudulent tool of the security services. |
| Document:Muellergate and the Discreet Lies of the Bourgeoisie | Blog post | 1 April 2019 | Craig Murray | 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 have a working “free media”. |
| Document:Striving to Make Sense of the Ukraine War | blog post | 4 April 2022 | Craig Murray | These things can be true at the same time: a) The Russian invasion of Ukraine is illegal: Putin is a war criminal; b) The US led invasion of Iraq was illegal: Blair and Bush are war criminals. |
