So-called ‘Israel’s’ i24 News, which spread genocide-boosting fictions about beheaded babies post-7 October 2023, has released footage of a man attacking their ‘journalists’ in Belfast. Since then, dishonest media and politicians have sought to falsely conflate the anti-Zionist attack with antisemitism, offering zero evidence for the presence of the latter. Yet this should have all been avoided by the British government imposing proper sanctions on the settler-colony, including barring entry for all ‘Israeli’ media outlets. The attack occurred earlier in August, when an ‘Israeli’ cameraman and reporter were preying on people in Belfast’s cathedral quarter, an area packed with pubs and music…

The very highest levels of the British government secretly exerted pressure on the BBC to censor a film about the army killing an unarmed child in 1972.

However the Ministry of Defence falsely informed an inquest into his death that he was shot from 25 meters away by a soldier who thought the boy was armed. The case revolves around the shooting dead of…

All while doing nothing to acknowledge the occupation or the Sahrawis who continue to resist Morocco’s ethnic cleansing campaign to force them from their land. Nolan chose Dakhla as the location for the film, set for release on Friday 17 July, despite the fact that the land has been occupied by Morocco for 50 years. In turn, critics have pointed out that this can only work to normalise the oppression and forced displacement of Sahrawis. Sahrawi filmmakers and journalists have condemned this deplorable lack of empathy…

Two recent films, the Hollywood production Citizen Vigilante and the Bollywood movie Chauhaan, have sparked widespread outrage for their portrayal of violence against Muslims. The use of popular media to mainstream hate and legitimise the othering of minorities is an alarming regression that has real-world consequences, given rising levels of violence against minorities. ‘Nazi’ and ‘Cannibal’ allegations dog Citizen Vigilante’s creators The people associated with Citizen Vigilante reveal a great deal about the film’s intentions. Actor Armie Hammer faced allegations of sexual abuse and cannibalism in 2021. He has since denied the most extreme claims. He told Louis Theroux that “you have…
