🧵A new report from the Center for Media Monitoring has laid bare the biases in BBC reporting of Israel’s war on Gaza. Among the key findings from the study, which analyzed an incredible 35,000 pieces of BBC news content (articles, interviews, TV clips, etc.) were:

🧵What happens when the head of a major pro-Palestine organization is linked to Israeli intelligence and Zionist institutions?

This new investigation by professor David Miller for MintPress News breaks down explosive revelations about Ben Soffa, the National Secretary of the UK’s Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), and why they matter for the Palestinian rights movement.

From ties to a former Israeli spy to the censorship of legends like Leila Khaled and Palestine action co-founder Huda Amouri, these facts raise urgent questions about transparency, integrity, and who controls the narrative in solidarity spaces. Who Is Ben Soffa?

🧵The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) – an organization that presents itself as a civil rights group – has come out in strong support of the Trump administration’s decision to abduct Columbia University student organizer Mahmoud Khalil. “We firmly believe there should be swift and severe consequences for those who provide material support to foreign terrorist organizations, incite violence in support of terrorist activities, or conceal their identities in order to harass and intimidate Jewish individuals and institutions with impunity,” the ADL wrote in a statement.

“We also hope that this action serves as a deterrent to others who might consider breaking the law on college campuses or anywhere,” they added.

🧵A new House bill – “The Red, White, and Blueland Act of 2025” authorizes the president to “enter into negotiations with the Government of Denmark to purchase or otherwise acquire Greenland,” and to rename the island “Red, White, and Blueland.”

If passed, it will add to Trump’s growing hunger to acquire more territory. Trump has previously floated the idea of invading both Panama and Gaza, while invasions of other neighbors, including Cuba and Venezuela, have been discussed in the media.

MintPress fills you in on this bizarre story. A new bill introduced to the US House of Representatives calls for Trump to acquire Greenland and change its name to “Red, White, and Blueland.”

🧵There are many controversial characters inside Washington, but few have had a career quite as destructive as US government official, Victoria Nuland. From her earliest days helping to rip apart the Soviet Union and paving the way for gangster capitalism in Russia, to helping to oversee the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars, to engineering a coup in Ukraine, Nuland has been at the forefront of aggressive US foreign policy for over three decades.

MintPress highlights some of her darkest moments. 2014 Ukraine Coup

🧵Think tanks are central to how Washington works. Crafting policy and pushing for new legislation, these groups serve as the brains of the US government. However, so many of them are literally in the pay of foreign governments, creating a huge conflict of interest. MintPress breaks down the ten think tanks taking the most foreign government cash. All figures come from the Think Tank Funding Tracker. Atlantic Council

🧵After October 7th, 2023, Israel accelerated its war against Islam, specifically by targeting institutions such as mosques and cemeteries in an attempt to subdue the Palestinian people not only in Gaza but across occupied Palestine. However, whether it be the targeting of mosques or restricting Palestinians from praying, none of these actions are new.

In these latest sets of slides, MintPress explores how over the years the Israeli occupation attacked Islamic holy sites. Israel has destroyed at least 800 mosques and 60 cemeteries since October 7, 2023.

🧵The American Historical Association, the oldest learned society in the United States, has overwhelmingly passed a resolution opposing what it labels a “scholasticide” in Gaza, condemning Israel’s “intentional effort to comprehensively destroy the Palestinian education system.”

MintPress takes you through Israel’s war on education, by the numbers. 85% of Gazan schools have been destroyed or damaged by Israeli bombing.

🧵From annulling elections to banning political parties, Europe is in a state of deep political malaise.

In this series, MintPress highlights six signs that democracy in Europe is beginning to crumble, citing examples from Romania, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. Romania’s top court has annulled the results of last month’s election, that saw anti-NATO outsider Călin Georgescu score a shock victory.

🧵Israel’s role in the Syrian war to secure its own interests

The Israeli military has been involved in backing at least a dozen Syrian opposition groups, including the Al-Qaeda offshoot in Syria, Jabhat Al-Nusra, which would later change its name to Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham. Israel steals Syrian resources from Golan Heights

🧵The CIA exists to carry out clandestine operations at the behest of the U.S. government. Over the decades, that has included political assassinations.

In this series, MintPress details nine well-known political figures the CIA is widely accused of attempting (and, in some cases, succeeding) to assassinate. Che Guevara

🧵A new MintPress News study has unearthed a network of former agents of Israeli spying agency, Unit 8200 working at TikTok, a company charged with supposedly being a Chinese-owned hub of anti-Semitic content. Amid claims it is an anti-Semitic platform, TikTok has actually hired numerous agents from Israeli spying agency, Unit 8200.

🧵Comedian Sacha Baron Cohen reprised his Borat character on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Many users on social media complained about the Anglo-Israeli’s use of tired stereotypes, but what few know, however, is his deep connections to both the US and Israeli national security states.

A MintPress News investigation from @AlanRMacLeod delves into this murky relationship. Cohen once casually revealed that his movie, Brüno, was made with the help of the CIA.

🧵Activision Blizzard’s new video game Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 has some seriously problematic aspects, not least the dehumanization of Arabs. It is set in Iraq, where players kill Iraqi combat forces and pursue Saddam Hussein. Previous Call of Duty games have glorified the assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani and Cuba’s Fidel Castro.

This targeting of America’s enemies is no coincidence. The game’s developer, Activision Blizzard, work closely with the US military and the US national security state to create the games. Furthermore, top Activision Blizzard executives are former CIA operatives. Saddam Hussein

🧵Journalists in the United Kingdom have suffered an increasing number of attacks from the British state. Earlier this month, Electronic Intifada’s Asa Winstanley was detained by police in a dawn raid on his home. Ten counter-terrorism police stormed his house and stole his electronic devices, presumably in an attempt to monitor his communications.

Winstanley is the latest in a series of prominent pro-Palestine figures detained by police, including Richard Medhurst, Sarah Wilkinson, Craig Murray and Julian Assange.

MintPress fills you in on the details of this worrying development. Asa Winstanley

🧵A new MintPress News investigation reveals that a number of the most influential journalists in the United States were previously operatives of Israeli spying agency, Unit 8200. Barak Ravid.

🧵The twelve-month Israeli attack on Gaza could not be sustained without the unwavering support of corporate media in the West.

Since October 7, Western media have pulled out all the stops to ensure the public does not see the reality of what is happening in Gaza.

In this series of slides, MintPress explains nine common tactics big media outlets use to manufacture public consent for Israeli actions against its neighbors, highlighting some egregious examples on the way. Using the passive voice when describing Israeli attacks.

The Israeli national security state is known the world over for its ethically questionable practices. But few people know that many of the world’s top companies were actually started by alumni of Israeli intelligence services—the same services that surveil and oppress the Palestinian population.

MintPress lays out eight companies with extremely close ties to Israeli intelligence. Waze.

🧵With three billion monthly users, Facebook is the world’s largest media platform. This gives whoever controls it enormous power to shape narratives worldwide. The US government has consistently used this power to influence Facebook and censor and delete viewpoints it does not like.

🧵Tommy Robinson has been deeply linked to Israel since the very beginning of his political activity in 2009.

MintPress outlines what we know so far: Tommy Robinson founded the English Defence League with Paul Ray in 2009. Ray previously infiltrated and spied on the pro-Palestinian International Solidarity Movement (ISM).
