Title | Type | Subject(s) | Publication date | Author(s) | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Document:A dissenting opinion on Nelson Mandela | article | Nelson Mandela | 6 December 2013 | Jonathan Cook | |
Document:Abuses show Assange case was never about law | blog post | United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention Emma Arbuthnot Julian Assange/Imprisonment | 27 May 2019 | Jonathan Cook | Craig Murray says: "As a summary of the truly breathtaking series of legal abuses by states against Julian Assange, that the corporate and state media has been deliberately distorting and hiding for a decade, this excellent account by Jonathan Cook cannot be bettered." |
Document:Antisemitism threats will keep destroying Labour | blog post | "Antisemitism" Board of Deputies of British Jews Jeremy Corbyn Brexit Owen Jones Jewish Labour Movement Jewish Voice for Labour 2020 Labour Party leadership contest | 12 February 2020 | Jonathan Cook | If we are only allowed to gently chide Israel in ways that cannot meaningfully advance Palestinian rights, if we are prevented from discussing the strategies of staunchly pro-Israel lobbyists to silence Israel’s critics, if we are denied the right to push for an international boycott of Israel of the kind that helped blacks in South Africa end their own oppression, then nothing is going to change for the Palestinians. |
Document:Biden’s pier for Gaza is a hollow gesture that will change almost nothing | blog post | Gaza Israeli–Palestinian conflict Joe Biden Genocide US/2024 Presidential election Occupied Palestinian Territory 2023-2024 Israel-Hamas War | 8 March 2024 | Jonathan Cook | President Biden needs to look like Gaza’s saviour when Democrats are deciding who they are voting for. He and the Democratic party are betting voters are dumb enough to fall for this charade. Please don’t prove them right. |
Document:Craig Murray’s jailing is the latest move in a battle to snuff out independent journalism | blog post | Craig Murray Wikileaks Julian Assange Vanessa Baraitser Lady Leeona Dorrian National Union of Journalists Ed Vulliamy Jigsaw Identification | 30 July 2021 | Jonathan Cook | Assange and Murray are not only telling us troubling truths we are not supposed to hear. The fact that they are being denied solidarity by those who are their colleagues, those who may be next in the firing line, tells us everything we need to know about the so-called mainstream media: that the role of corporate journalists is to serve establishment interests, not challenge them. |
Document:George Monbiot’s excuses for not speaking out loudly in defence of Assange simply won’t wash | blog post | The Guardian Neoliberalism George Monbiot David Leigh Julian Assange/Imprisonment | 6 October 2020 | Jonathan Cook | Faced with a barrage of criticism from some of his followers, George Monbiot, The Guardian’s supposedly fearless, leftwing columnist, offered up two extraordinarily feeble excuses this week for failing to provide more than cursory support for Julian Assange over the past month, as the Wikileaks founder has endured extradition hearings in a London courtroom. |
Document:Jonathan Freedland rewrites history to hide an ugly truth about Israel | blog post | "Antisemitism" Israel Zionism "The Holocaust" Palestine Jonathan Freedland Jeremy Corbyn Theodore Herzl Tony Greenstein Auschwitz-Birkenau Adolf Eichmann Rudolf Vrba Alfréd Wetzler Rezső Kasztner | 25 August 2024 | Jonathan Cook | The anti-Zionist Rudolf Vrba's story exposes the ideological foundations of Israel to be fully in sympathy with ugly European ethic nationalisms that culminated in Nazism. Vrba's story explains how Israel was always capable of, and is now committing, a genocide in Gaza. |
Document:Labour's next leader has already betrayed the left | blog post | Board of Deputies of British Jews Labour Friends of Israel Jeremy Corbyn Keir Starmer Jewish Labour Movement Rebecca Long-Bailey 2020 Labour Party leadership contest Lisa Nandy | 21 February 2020 | Jonathan Cook | The next Leader of the Labour Party is already a prisoner to the "institutional antisemitism" narrative. That means their hands are chained not only to support for Israel, but to the reactionary politics in which Israel as a Jewish state makes sense – a worldview that embraces its style of ethnic, chauvinist, militaristic, segregationist politics. |
Document:MI6, Theresa May and the Manchester attack | Article | MI6 Theresa May Amber Rudd Cressida Dick 2017 Manchester bombing Salman Abedi Libyan Islamic Fighting Group Saleh Ibrahim Mabrouk Hashem Abedi Ramadan al-Abedi Ismail Abedi | 30 May 2017 | Jonathan Cook | And so the story of MI6 and Theresa May, their sponsorship of Islamic jihadism, and the likely “blowback” the UK just experienced in Manchester is a sleeping dog no one seems willing to disturb. |
Document:More Guardian ‘brainwashing’ on Putin | commentary | Corporate media 2014 Ukraine coup | 24 March 2014 | Jonathan Cook | A master-class in how the celebrated 'Free-Press' of the Western commercially controlled media is harnessed to the narrative requirements of the Establishments of which they are a part, turning them into little more than propaganda organs where major foreign policy issues are concerned. |
Document:My offer to Owen Jones: A tour of Nazareth | article | Zionism Moshe Dayan Jerusalem Owen Jones Jewish Labour Movement Two-state solution | 3 April 2017 | Jonathan Cook | One has to look at what Zionism did when the Labour party was directing it – in Israel’s formative stages and for most of its history. Only then can you understand that what you see in Hebron or Nablus was created in Haifa and Nazareth first. The template was set in Israel, at a time and place where there were no security issues. It was not Palestinian bombs Israel feared from its Palestinian citizens but their wombs. |
Document:No fair hearing for Assange at the Guardian | article | Wikileaks Julian Assange Corporate media The Guardian United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention | 5 February 2016 | Jonathan Cook | Demonstrates the Establishment-friendly double standards of the UK's flagship 'Left-wing' newspaper - The Guardian - through analysis of its coverage of a UN decision on the political asylum of Julian Assange |
Document:Starmer’s purges of Labour have mutated into the arrest of Palestine supporters | blog post | Craig Murray "Terrorism" Gaza Israel Benjamin Netanyahu Genocide Labour Party Gerry Adams Hamas Keir Starmer Richard Medhurst Hannibal Directive Ismail Haniyeh Sarah Wilkinson | 30 August 2024 | Jonathan Cook | Britain’s authoritarian new prime minister is expanding the scope of already draconian laws to redefine his critics as ‘supporters’ of terrorism. Starmer wants to be judge, jury and executioner. We must not let him get away with it. |
Document:The Antisemitism Industry doesn’t speak for Jews. It speaks for Western elites | blog post | "Antisemitism" "The Holocaust" File:The Holocaust Industry.pdf Jeremy Corbyn Norman Finkelstein Hajo Meyer Jonathan Glazer Dehumanisation | 14 March 2024 | Jonathan Cook | Film-maker Jonathan Glazer’s crime at the Oscars was to threaten the establishment’s stranglehold on the West’s Official Narrative about Israel – and itself |
Document:The Dangerous Cult of The Guardian | article | "Antisemitism" The Guardian | 28 September 2011 | Jonathan Cook | Criticism of The Guardian's policy on censorship of topics including "anti-semitism" and Wikileaks |
Document:The EHRC’s report into Labour antisemitism is the real ‘political interference’ | blog post | Board of Deputies of British Jews Boris Johnson Jonathan Freedland Jeremy Corbyn Joan Ryan Ken Livingstone Keir Starmer Jewish Labour Movement Campaign Against Antisemitism Equality and Human Rights Commission Ephraim Mirvis Pam Bromley | 7 November 2020 | Jonathan Cook | It is instructive to compare the certainty with which the EHRC treats Councillor Pam Bromley’s ambiguous remarks as irrefutable proof of antisemitism in Labour with its complete disregard for unmistakably antisemitic comments from Boris Johnson, the man actually running the country. That lack of concern is shared, of course, by the establishment media and Jewish leadership organisations. |
Document:The Israel-US game plan for Gaza is staring us in the face | Article | Gaza Israel Benjamin Netanyahu Palestine Joe Biden US Hamas 2023-2024 Israel-Hamas War/Israeli invasion of Gaza Rafah | 30 April 2024 | Jonathan Cook | "The western media is pretending the West’s efforts to secure a ceasefire in Gaza are serious. But a different script has clearly been written in advance by Israel and the United States. Our job is to do everything in our power to stop them making their plan a reality." |
Document:The deeper truths journalists are blind to | article | Corporate media | 21 February 2016 | Jonathan Cook | Corporate media is constitutionally incapable of honest objective reporting on matters affecting the vital interests of Establishment power |
Document:The official death toll in Gaza is a lie. The casualty numbers are far, far higher | Wikispooks Page | Gaza Israel "Disinformation" Palestine Save the Children WHO 2023-2024 Israel-Hamas War | 31 July 2024 | Jonathan Cook | In July 2024, researchers to The Lancet medical journal very conservatively estimated that the total number of Gazans who will die over the coming months – not just from bombs but as a result of the lack of medical care, insanitary conditions and famine – is 186,000, or 8 per cent of the population. |
Document:The plot to keep Corbyn out of power | blog post | Jeremy Hunt Boris Johnson Jeremy Corbyn Mike Pompeo Chris Williamson Equality and Human Rights Commission Russell Brand | 3 July 2019 | Jonathan Cook | The weaponisation of anti-semitism against Corbyn has become so normal that, even while I was writing this post, a new nadir was reached. Jeremy Hunt, the foreign secretary who hopes to defeat Boris Johnson in the upcoming Tory leadership race, as good as accused Corbyn of being a new Hitler, a man who as prime minister might allow Jews to be exterminated, just as occurred in the Nazi death camps. |
Document:Was there a Wuhan lab leak? | blog post | Biological weapon/Research COVID-19 Wuhan Institute of Virology WHO Anthony Fauci Peter Daszak EcoHealth Alliance Nicholas Wade | 1 June 2021 | Jonathan Cook | No meaningful lessons will be learnt about what really happened in Wuhan. Maintaining the illusion of truth will continue to take precedence over uncovering the truth. And for that reason we are doomed to keep making the same screw-ups. As the next pandemic will doubtless attest. |
