BBC Verify asked three "experts" about the bombing of the Al-Ahli hospital.
The "experts" concluded that the blast was "not consistent" with a "typical Israeli airstrike".
But who were these "experts"? Thread:
One of the "experts" is Justin Bronk, who works as a "senior research fellow at the UK-based Royal United Services Institute" (RUSI).
RUSI is funded by the US state department, the UK Foreign Office, the British Army, and arms companies like BAE Systems.
Another "expert" was Valeria Scuto, who is described as "lead Middle East analyst at Sibylline, a risk assessment company".
What's not mentioned is that Scuto is the editor of the ICTR journal, a project of the Israeli ICT thinktank - which has had a Mossad chief on its board.
The third "expert" was J Andres Gannon, an academic who has recently been a fellow at the NATO Defence College and Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
The CFR is an influential US thinktank. Its board is made up of the heads of US arms companies, banks, and corporations.
As @kennardmatt wrote recently, "BBC Verify has to be the biggest joke the establishment media has ever played on us".
It helps to launder state propaganda through supposedly neutral sources.
The Economist has spent the past week blaming the left for the coup in Chile, and insisting that everybody move on from it.
Remember that The Economist helped to prepare the ground for Salvador Allende's removal, and welcomed the Augusto Pinochet regime.
Thread:
During the 1970s, The Economist's Latin American editor was a man named Robert Moss.
Declassified UK files show that Moss was "an IRD contact". In other words, he was an asset of the Foreign Office's secret propaganda unit, the Information Research Department.
In 1972, Moss travelled to Chile to write a CIA-funded book about Allende's Popular Unity government.
Moss had been recommended to the CIA by Brian Crozier, an MI6 "alongsider" whose Institute for the Study of Conflict (ISC) was being secretly funded by the IRD.
In Kissinger's view, Allende posed such a severe threat because the "example of a successful elected Marxist government in Chile would surely have an impact on... other parts of the world".
He added: "The imitative spread of similar phenomena would... affect the world balance".
Thread on some of the appalling things that Churchill - "the greatest Briton" - said throughout his lifetime:
Churchill on Benito Mussolini, 1926:
"If I had been an Italian I am sure I would have been wholeheartedly from start to finish with Fascismo's triumphant struggle against the bestial appetites and passions of Leninism".
Churchill on Mussolini again:
"I could not help being charmed by his gentle, simple bearing and his calm, detached poise".
New: With Venezuela's gold still frozen in the Bank of England, the UK courts have granted the "Maduro Board" permission to appeal a July judgment which ruled in favour of the "Guaidó Board".
Justice Cockerill, the judge overseeing the case, noted that the legal issues at stake here are "effectively unprecedented".
She thus allowed the "Maduro Board" to appeal her own decision - a rare judgment. 2/
The "Maduro Board" argued in court that, if the "Guaidó Board" was allowed to give instructions to the Bank of England regarding Venezuelan assets, these assets could then be transferred to the personal accounts of Guaidó and his associates. 3/
Britain promised to help Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet "with medical treatment in London" in return for Chile's help during the Falklands War, according to a newly declassified UK file.
Thread:
In 1998, Britain was served by Spain with an extradition request for Pinochet, who was receiving medical treatment in London.
The charges concerned crimes against humanity committed during Chile's military dictatorship (1973-1990), including murder, torture, & hostage-taking. 2/
Faced with an extradition request, Britain's offer of "medical treatment" to Pinochet years earlier seemed to complicated things.
"It would obviously be embarrassing if all this came out", PM Tony Blair was told. 3/
Breaking: The UK High Court has ruled in favour of the Juan Guaidó board in the Venezuelan gold case
Venezuela's highest court (STJ) quashed Guaidó's appointment of an "ad-hoc board" to the Central Bank of Venezuela, but the UK court ruled that STJ judgments cannot be recognised
However, the judge did not accept that non-recognition of STJ judgments means that Guaidó can now give instructions to the Bank of England concerning Venezuela's gold reserves.
The gold thus remains frozen in the Bank of England, awaiting a further hearing in October 2022.
The judge also ruled that, while STJ judgments "are not capable of being recognised", the Guaidó board's attack on the institutional independence of the STJ failed to meet "the hurdle of cogent evidence".
