BRITISH/ EU/ NATO COMPLICITY

JON. COOK—In other words, not only was Sky’s reporter correct in her first account of the events in Amsterdam, but Sky’s news editors back in London knew exactly what the footage showed too – because the Dutch woman who filmed it had told them.

And yet Sky’s news team still edited a truthful news report to make it untruthful.

The only conclusion one can draw is that they did so to mislead their audience. They didn’t make a mistake. They didn’t act out of ignorance. They knowingly aired disinformation. They intentionally peddled fake news.

EDITOR—Max also clarifies that the Maccabi football fans were not the victims of some vicious anti-semitic pogrom, but actually the victimisers. Despite the solidly documented facts, instead of censure, from the BBC and the New York Times to Joe Biden and the entire Western punditocracy, these violent hypocritical hooligans are now being hailed as heroes and victims by the corrupt Western media and political class representing liberal totalitarianism, a revolting spectacle liable to get worse under Trump. 

EDITOR—Garland’s wide-ranging conversation with Palestinian journalist Laith Marouf about the latest developments in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran and other key regions in the Resistance, and how Hezbollah’s tenacity and good strategic and tactical planning —despite enormous losses in its leadership—have been defeating Israel’s big army and its criminal air force. Israel has not been able to penetrate more than a mile into Lebanon, and Netanyahu’s promise to return settlers to Northern Palestine dissipates into thin air with each passing day.  Looking at the election, Garland believes that Democrats being voted out of office because of their loyalty to Zionism is not a deterrent for many of these politicians. Their calculus is simple: If they lose because of their support for Israel, they can always count on a cushy job somewhere. If they vote against Israel, they stand to lose plenty. Short of a real revolution, they become “political orphans.” Besides, the Dems have long made their pact with the ruling elites, seeing themselves as the natural political platform for the PMC class and its billionaire class sponsors, not to mention their MICIMATT-dominated Deep State. For his part, Trump will not be able to deliver on any of his promises. He won’t upset the abominable status quo that MAGA people abhor because he is fully embedded in it, he’s a con man. 

EDITOR—ERIC ZUESSE provides a thorough backdrop for the Trump policy choices, one worse than the next, all of them certifiable 100% swamp creatures, noxious imperial figures trading in fake patriotism that should have been retired a long time ago. ||| ACTIVE MEASURES editors examine some of the people already nominated and being considered for key posts in Trump’s cabinet. |||. THE GRAYZONE Max Blumenthal and Wyatt Reed discuss the shocking psy-op that ensued in Amsterdam, where Israeli football hooligans instigated violence, then played victims of a pogrom, then Anya Parampil joins to discuss Trump’s re-election and the sordid history of his top foreign policy picks. So we go from sneaky and utterly hypocritical liberal totalitarianism to batshit corrupt war hawks and fascistoid chauvinists. ||| RBN’s Nick Cruse comments on the pathetic choices hitherto made by Trump, confirming the man’s severe lack of historical depth and opportunism. ||| DUE DISSIDENCE team provides a rich discussion on the Trump incoming cabinet and what that portends for a nation batered by division, insoluble problems and stunning misleadership.

EDITORS—Former British diplomat Alastair Crooke examines the kind of foreign policy to be embraced by Donald Trump, especially in the Middle East, where his notorious hyper allegiance to the Zionist entity is liable to cause further tragedies and possibly an expansion of the war well beyond the region’s core borders. In West Asia, Trump may prove far less flexible than in Ukraine, but in both areas the heavy Neocon imprint will be felt on all parties, leaving little room for actual diplomacy.
