Editor's Note

"Today, as Israeli forces carry out an unprecedented massacre on a Palestinian refugee camp in Jenin involving war planes, airstrikes, bulldozers and thousands of troops who have killed at least nine Palestinians, British Conservative politicians will lead the way in attempting to falsely claim that boycotting the apartheid state is “antisemitic” as the second reading of the government’s “Anti-Boycott Bill” takes place in the UK parliament this afternoon.

Republicans demand banned weapons for Ukraine

Four Republican congressmen have entreated US President Joe Biden to send cluster munitions, a controversial weapon banned in 110 countries, to Ukraine, dismissing concerns about escalating the conflict as misplaced in a letter to the White House on Tuesday.

The Biden administration shouldn’t hesitate to send cluster munitions – specifically dual purpose improved conventional munitions (DPICM) – because of “vague concerns about the reaction of allies and partners and

Tucker Carlson discusses how the deepening China-Russia axis is clearly dangerous for America, both economically and militarily.

As Zelensky recently said, such an alliance would lead to a world war, in which hundreds of thousands of people would die. Which doesn't seem to bother Zelensky himself much - as long as Ukraine takes Crimea... 🤷‍♀️

Tucker is convinced: Zelensky is not a hero, he is a very dark force and a destroyer. Yet, President Biden's recent visit to Kiev demonstrates

CAAT goes to court!

"Despite a previous Court of Appeal ruling in CAAT’s favour – which found that the government’s licensing decisions on arms to Saudi Arabia were ‘irrational and therefore unlawful’ – the UK government has continued to issue licenses to export arms for use in Yemen. Since the start of the war, more than £23 billion of arms have been sold to the Saudi led coalition: the consequences have been appalling, with 8,983 civilians killed in air raids fuelled by these weapons.

Beijing explains US role in Ukraine conflict

The US is the “initiator and biggest promoter” of the crisis in Ukraine, Beijing has said, commenting on Washington’s reported claims that state-run Chinese companies were providing non-lethal aid to Russia.
