Nearly half a century apart, this man has been behind bars again for being a thorn in the side of authoritarianism. This time, India's Godi media and english newspaper editors have a lot to answer for, for running sarkari plants against him.

If you live in the west you may not know that most countries of the world have long recognized the state of Palestine, as have the UN, the ICJ, and the ICC. You may also not know that 28 countries still do not recognize Israel while others have cut ties due to Israeli atrocities.

Harris did not answer the question she was asked about what she will do differently than Biden to ‘end the war’. Instead, she repeated lies about Oct 7 - used to justify the genocide - and repeated what have been standard talking points from every U.S. president since Clinton.

The UN won’t protect Gaza, but can adopt a ‘Pact for the Future?’ In New York this week, Lebanon and Palestine were nowhere on the agenda, but a rammed-through US Pact designed to protect the ‘rules-based order’ was right at the top. Pepe Escobar thecradle.co/articles-id/27…
