🚨🇬🇧GENOCIDE CENSORSHIP: Journalist Asa Winstanley’s home raided by police for daring to expose Israel’s lies about October 7th

‘It was the 17th of October, 2024. I’ve been covering the issue of Palestine and the pro-Israel lobby for 20 years. During the genocide in Gaza, I continued that coverage.

Since October 7th, 2023, I’ve focused heavily on the Hannibal Directive and how Israel killed many of its own people on that day, deliberately and otherwise, in the chaos and blanket bombing during the Palestinian military offensive. The article I had just published before the police raid was related to that: how Israel killed hundreds of its own people on October 7th.

Many of my readers and viewers were left with the impression that the raid was punishment for daring to cover that topic. We still don’t really know what it was ultimately about.

It was a very intimidating experience. It was October, so at that time it was still dark, ten to six in the morning. I was woken up blurry, in my dressing gown. There were around 10 officers, plus two evidence gatherers from the forensics team who were there to take possession of all my devices.

They were in plain clothes. I didn’t see weapons, but they likely had handcuffs and pepper spray. At first, it was very tense. They wouldn’t let me go to the toilet alone…I suppose they thought I might hide a device in there. It was a very intimidating experience.’

-Asa Winstanley, Associate Editor at The Electronic Intifada, discusses the police raid on his home by British police and his victory in the subsequent court case

A British journalist had his home illegally raided, his devices were seized in a draconian crackdown…simply for reporting the facts and the inconvenient truths about Israel’s lies surrounding October 7th

Not one mainstream British media outlet reported on it. Since they didn’t, we did, watch the full interview: https://rumble.com/v6u2w6z-genocide-censorship-free-speech-is-being-obliterated-in-the-west-to-support.html?e9s=src_v1_ucp

🚨🇬🇧The Electronic Intifada’s Asa Winstanley: The British media is COMPLICIT in Israel’s genocide in Gaza

‘The media has been complicit really with the genocide in Gaza. Absolutely. By constantly having on Israeli officials, spokespeople, to really power effectively a Holocaust denial line whereby they’re saying, ‘oh well, people are only dying in Gaza because of Hamas.’ It’s got nothing to do with us. Or ‘there’s no starvation in Gaza’.

All these kinds of lies and they’re then putting out this kind of soft questioning of them and challenging them a little bit. But really, ultimately, the genocide denial line by the Israeli spokespeople is being put forward.’

-Asa Winstanley on the latest episode of Going Underground

Since the BBC’s ‘journalists’ can’t do their job to challenge the UK government for its participation in the Gaza genocide…

Audience members on their shows do their job for them. The BBC’s coverage has been nothing but a genocide denial embarrassment.

🚨The British🇬🇧 Government is ENTHUSIASTICALLY participating in the Gaza genocide- The Electronic Intifada’s Asa Winstanley

‘It’s a matter of active complicity…not just complicity, but active, enthusiastic involvement in this genocide.

For example, we’ve seen the latest thing where the British Foreign Minister David Lammy said that the British government was suspending trade negotiation talks with Israel. And then a few days later, Ian Austin, their trade envoy, being sighted in Haifa and being posted by the British consulate, saying that he’s welcome to Israel. The whole thing is a farce.

We saw last year the suspension of a very limited number of weapons licences to Israel, although the vast majority of them would carry on. But now, from independent journalists like Matt Kennard and like The National, the Scottish newspaper, have been able to show that actually these licences that they said were ending have continued, that they’ve actually increased.

So there’s active involvement of the British military in the genocide, with spy flights that have been going over Gaza, feeding intelligence to the Israelis and helping them in this genocide.’

🚨The Electronic Intifada’s Asa Winstanley: Democrats in the US🇺🇸 and Labour in the UK🇬🇧 are more PRO-GENOCIDE than even the right-wing

‘I think that on both sides of the Atlantic you see this strange dynamic whereby the supposedly progressive liberal parties, the Democrats and Labour, have actually both been worse and actively more pro-genocide than even the right-wing side.

They’re both pro-genocide, but the Labour government since it came in, in July last year  has actually ramped up Britain’s involvement in the Israeli genocide.

Like you alluded to, the majority of the Labour cabinet is all being funded, supported, and backed by pro-Israel lobbyists like Trevor Chinn who fund these pro-Israel groups within the Labour Party and within all political parties.’

It is being reported now that the Trump Administration was NOT notified about Ukraine’s massive drone attack against Russia, which marked the first time Zelensky’s regime bombed Siberia.

Russia’s retaliation is likely to be severe.

This is not Ukraine vs Russia, it has always been NATO vs Russia through Ukraine

The burning strategic bombers, trains, airfields, and bridges all across Russia this weekend would not have been possible without NATO’s green light and assistance

The more attacks continue inside Russia with NATO assistance, the more likely it gets that the same levels of devastation will reach NATO countries themselves

Not even at the height of the Cold War was NATO insane enough to assist and direct attacking targets inside the Soviet Union

🚨EUROPE🇪🇺 PANICS AT TRUMP’S RAPPROCHEMENT WITH RUSSIA🇷🇺

‘It seems that Donald Trump literally is a loose cannon...the firing, of course, is a tweet, a post on his Truth Social or X. So that, of course, is the cannonball which he launches one way and another.

Trump is like that, as we know. But at the same time, there’s a ‘deep Trump’. And the deep Trump understands that it makes sense to have rapprochement with Russia.

And that’s really put the European powers in a panic, which seems bizarre, because it’s finally possibly going to break that logjam of this, as you mentioned, this awful war on our European continent.’

While the US tries to stop the most brutal war on the European continent since World War 2…

Europe celebrates the escalating Ukrainian attacks deep inside Russia, seemingly completely oblivious to the fact that European countries can be a target for Russian strikes.

They don’t seem to understand that Moscow views these attacks as impossible without NATO assistance and planning, which means that European countries could find these scenes of devastation happening in their own countries.

Despite Trump’s efforts, Europe’s war fever, which exceeds the militarism of the 1st ‘Cold War’, still has us on the escalation ladder to Mutually Assured Destruction.

🇷🇺🇺🇦BACKLASH brewing in Europe over increasing militarism and WAR FEVER

‘The good news is that the mainstream media’s blockade is beginning to be breached. I think people are beginning to understand because we’re now in the fourth year of the Ukraine proxy war, the same length as the First World War.

And by the end of the First World War, there was actually a vigorous debate about the merits of that war.

I begin to feel that there is beginning to be a backlash against the militarism, against a war fever that has seized the continent, and the absurdity of the positions of the European Commission and the German leadership.’

🚨Prof. Richard Sakwa: ‘The whole 500-odd years of Western dominance is now under challenge as NEVER BEFORE.

This civilisational West which has always been accompanied by genocide, mass murder, from Aztecs, to the Incas, to the peoples of the Caribbean, of course in the United States, the native peoples, all the way more or less to this day.

There’s something in our civilisation which has this endless drive for war when we do have an alternative.

And I keep going on about the United Nations charter system of 1945. At the end of the Second World War, humanity pledged to do it better. Never again. Of course it’s been many times again since then.

But we do have, as it were, a lodestar which does perhaps provide a type of path out of it, and that is to go to the idea of comity, of cooperation between the great powers.

Donald Trump, in his incoherent and opaque manner, is reaching towards this, to that vision of great power cooperation which is at the heart of the United Nations Security Council.’

UK🇬🇧 Prime Minister and charisma vacuum Sir Keir Starmer has announced that the UK is moving to 'war-fighting readiness', citing ‘threats’ from Russia🇷🇺

The British Army is estimated to have only 20-25 operational tanks, after giving away most of its tank arsenal to Ukraine to be destroyed by Russia

As of 01/01/2025, the British Army only had 73,847 regular personnel. The Russian Army has an estimated 1.32 million active personnel. Russia also has an estimated 2 million reservists

The total number of personnel in the British Armed Forces declined by 3% from 2023 to 2024

More personnel are leaving the armed forces than are joining

While the British economy continues to stagnate into global irrelevance, and more than 14 million people live in poverty, including more than 1 in every 4 children…

Sir Keir Starmer and his band of the delusional insist on playing imperial games, when the British Empire no longer exists. Starmer wants to insert the UK into a war against Russia that it absolutely has no chance of winning.
