The West Report   The Zionist Federation of Australia has launched one of the most extraordinary legal actions we have ever seen, a sprawling 18C case against former SBS newsreader Mary Kostakidis over 61 tweets and retweets. This episode breaks down exactly what is being dragged into the Federal Court, from October 7 narratives and Gaza to Epstein, Mossad, Hezbollah, UK politics, CIA operations and even the history of Israel itself. A single lawsuit that could choke the courts for years and reshape free speech in Australia. Why is this happening, who benefits, and what precedent could it set for journalists, academics and anyone who posts online?   

As Trump continues to lodge threats against the Bolivarian Republic, US Congress and grassroots movements mobilize to stop a new war.   by Devin B. Martinez   Part 1 The US government has continued to accelerate its drive to war with Venezuela. While rumors circulate about phone calls and possible talks between US President Donald Trump and Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, in tandem, the US head of state has continued to launch bizarre and illegal threats and accusations against the South American nation. On Saturday, November 29, Trump unilaterally declared that Venezuelan airspace was closed, despite international law stipulating that only Venezuela has authority over the airspace above its territory and reports that air traffic above Venezuela has since continued. While Trump, his Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and the Secretary of War Pete Hegseth have claimed land strikes and “action” against Venezuela could begin imminently and that the country should be on alert, a...

The visit of Syria’s interim president to Washington has once again showcased the ambivalence of US counter-terrorism policy, which changes according to temporal interests   by Aseel Saleh Part 6 - US declares partial suspension of sanctions on Syria following Al-Sharaa-Trump meeting Syria’s interim president affirmed that lifting the sanctions imposed by the United States on the Arab country was among the most important topics, which he discussed with his US counterpart. As both nations are looking forward to bolstering mutual security and economic interests, Al-Sharaa told The Washington Post that lifting the sanctions is essential for maintaining stability, which is, in turn, linked to economic development. It is worth noting that shortly after the meeting, the United States Treasury Department announced that the Trump administration suspended key provisions of the Caesar Act sanctions on Syria for 180 days. This partial suspension replaces a previous sanctions relief, which wa...

Trump loyalist and CIA contractor Larry Ellison’s purchase of CNN appears imminent, and marks the latest venture into media for the world’s second-richest individual. But Ellison is not alone. Indeed, the world’s seven richest individuals are all now powerful media barons, controlling what the world sees, reads, and hears, marking a new chapter in oligarchical control over society and striking another blow at a free, independent press and diversity of opinion.   by Alan Macleod  Part 2 - Billionaire Capture   Rather is correct. No other period in history has seen such a rapid and overwhelming buy up of our means of communications by the billionaire class – a fact that raises tough questions about freedom of speech and diversity of opinion. Today, the world’s seven richest individuals are all major media barons, giving them extraordinary control over our media and public square, allowing them to set agendas, and suppress forms of speech they do not approve of. This include...

As panic-inducing travel advisories and doomsaying media reports prophesy the fall of Mali to an Al Qaeda affiliate attacking fuel convoys, the government has re-secured supply routes and hosted Mali’s first international defense expo in a supposedly besieged capital.   by Pavan Kulkarni  Part 4 - Government restores fuel supply Two days later, on November 5, residents of Bamako cheered on the streets as large convoys of fuel tankers entered the city under the protection of the armed forces. Nevertheless, France 24 persisted with headlines like “Jihadists threaten to overrun Mali as blockades continue“, “fuel blockade squeezes Mali’s military rulers“, etc. “There have been disruptions in the supply system,” but “the state organized itself, put in place a strategic plan to resume supplies, to ensure the security of convoys … And gradually, you see that hundreds of trucks are arriving every day to resume supplies to Bamako and other localities,” Diop added in his press conferenc...

PRCF - Pôle de Renaissance Communiste en France   Communist Initiative is sharing the exclusive interview between the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, and the former President of Ecuador, Rafael Correa, regarding the threats of imperialist aggression by the United States. As the interview dramatically demonstrates, behind the fallacious pretext of "drug trafficking" allegedly orchestrated by the Maduro government, it is indeed resources (hydrocarbons, gold, water, agricultural land, etc.) that Washington is targeting, always quick to raise the "red specter" which, as Nicolas Maudro reminds us, was used to overthrow Jacobo Arbenz in Guatemala in 1954, the government of the Dominican Republic in 1965, and Salvador Allende in Chile on September 11, 1973.   Certainly, criticisms can be leveled at the Maduro government regarding its construction of socialism compared to its predecessor. But whatever reservations one may have about it—pa...
