The Netherlands investigated fraud by the foundation that funded the Syrian White Helmets with over $120 million in Western government contracts. But top Dutch officials covered up the corruption.

This is yet another example of the deep rot at the heart of the dirty war on Syria, which almost no Western media outlets will touch.

An internal report from the US government's so-called "humanitarian" agency USAID admitted that its policy on Venezuela was driven by the State Department and National Security Council to push for regime change.

We spoke with a Chilean activist and politician who is the grandson of the legendary President Salvador Allende (who was overthrown in a 1973 CIA coup) about the historic elections this month, in which left-wing and independent candidates won two-thirds of the seats for a convention to rewrite the constitution, which dates back to the military dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet.

He also discussed Chile’s enormous copper reserves, which are some of the largest in the world, and are now being targeted by US corporations, after Goldman Sachs dubbed copper “the new oil.”

The US government and corporate media are running a cynical PR campaign to legitimize rebranded Syrian al-Qaeda, HTS, and market its leader Mohammad Jolani as a strategic American “asset.”

A top US diplomat admitted that Washington has communicated with Syrian al-Qaeda “through people in the media, people in the NGO world who did have direct contacts with them.”

A wealthy, entitled heiress who received millions of dollars seized from the Iranian people by the US government, named Sulome Anderson, waged an absurd McCarthyite lawfare campaign to try to censor and destroy The Grayzone.

Now that a judge has dismissed her frivolous million-dollar lawsuit, we can expose her sham journalism and the powerful neoconservative forces that egged on her legal assault.
