Newly Leaked Documents: Regime Change Mission Foiled

July 20, 2026 Robert Inlakesh and Ahmed Abdulkareem, Mintpress News. , , , , ,
Newly leaked documents reveal that while the Yemeni Armed Forces escalated their military campaign and Red Sea Blockade against Israel during the genocide in Gaza, a secret intelligence alliance and a “sophisticated espionage network” were being formed between Saudi intelligence, Israel’s Mossad and the CIA inside Riyadh to achieve regime change in Sana’a through political assasinations, dismantling Ansarallah from within, defecting military officials and gathering intelligence through charitable aid organizations.

Millions Gather To Mourn Slain Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei

July 4, 2026 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , ,
Massive crowds gathered in Tehran on 4 July for the farewell ceremony of slain Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who was killed on the first day of the US-Israeli war on the Islamic Republic. Waving Iranian flags and carrying portraits of Khamenei, Iranians filled Tehran's Imam Khomeini Grand Mosalla and the surrounding streets, chanting slogans demanding justice for his killing. Iranian media described the massive turnout as a “renewal of allegiance to the ideals of the Islamic Revolution, Islam, and the martyrs, symbolizing the nation's commitment to dignity, independence, and resistance.”

The Democracy Of The Strongest Is Always The Best

May 1, 2026 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental Institute for Social Research. , , ,
On 15 October 1987, Thomas Sankara, the leader of Burkina Faso, was assassinated alongside twelve of his senior officials. At the time, which I remember well, there was great confusion as to who had carried out this unforgivable act. The assassins, too afraid to face Sankara, shot him from behind, hitting him multiple times before targeting those who were at the meeting with him. Shortly thereafter, one of Sankara’s associates, Blaise Compaoré, defended the coup by claiming that Sankara had endangered relations with France and Côte d’Ivoire, a close French ally.

Israeli Military Reportedly Bombed Lebanese Journalist, Blocked Rescuers

April 24, 2026 Kevin Gosztola, The Dissenter. , , , ,
The Israeli military reportedly targeted two Lebanese journalists, assassinating Amal Khalil who worked for the Al-Akhbar newspaper and seriously injuring freelance photographer Zeinab Faraj. Lebanese Red Cross volunteers rescued Faraj but were unable to rescue Khalil before she died because the Israeli military opened fire on them, which Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam called a “war crime.” “Israel’s targeting of media professionals in the South while they are performing their professional duties can no longer be viewed as a series of isolated incidents,” Salam declared.

Iran Calls US-Israeli Decapitation Of Leadership ‘Criminal And Illegal’

March 28, 2026 Abdul Rahman, People's Dispatch. , , , ,
Iran urged the United Nations to intervene against the US-Israeli plans to assassinate high ranking officials, including Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and speaker of the parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, calling such acts “state sponsored terrorism”. Iranian ambassador to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani, in an official letter to UN Secretary-General António Guterres on Thursday, March 26, called the Israeli-American plots to kill Iranian state leadership a “criminal policy” which sets the wrong precedent and violates international law.

Shocking Confession Letter Exposes Israel’s Red Crescent Spy Ring

March 28, 2026 Kit Klarenberg and Jonathan Urmaneta, The Grayzone. , , , ,
A leaked confession indicates the Red Crescent was infiltrated by Israeli intelligence, which exploited its collaborator network within the Occupied Palestinian Territories to engage in criminal activity including drug trafficking, shocking acts of sexual blackmail, and political executions.  The document was obtained by The Grayzone, which verified its authenticity through two West Bank sources with knowledge of the case. Originally published by the State of Palestine Public Prosecution, the letter shines a light on the inner workings of Tel Aviv’s espionage network inside the West Bank, revealing how resistance groups are infiltrated and monitored, while common Palestinians are press-ganged into serving the apartheid state.

IDF Threatens ‘Elimination’ For Russian Leaders Who ‘Wish Israel Ill’

March 21, 2026 Wyatt Reed, The Grayzone. , , ,
Israeli military spokeswoman Anna Ukolova has drawn outrage in Moscow after threatening that Russian authorities who “wish Israel ill” could be subject to “elimination,” while suggesting Israel could hack into Russian closed-circuit television cameras to identify and track targets. Asked by a journalist with Russian radio broadcaster RBC whether Israel had access to Russian traffic cameras, Ukolova declined to answer directly but warned that “Khamenei’s elimination shows our capabilities are serious” and that “no one who wishes us harm will be left aside.”

In Memoriam Berta Cáceres

March 14, 2026 John Perry, Popular Resistance. , , , , , ,
Ten years ago Berta Cáceres, a campaigner against dams and mining projects that were displacing rural communities in Honduras, said that death threats had forced her to lead a ‘fugitive existence’. Most of the threats came from a company, Desarrollos Energeticos SA (DESA), that was planning a hydroelectric project on the Gualcarque River, sacred to Cáceres’s Indigenous Lenca community. Hired killers were tracking her movements. An attempt to assassinate her on 5 February 2016 was aborted. On 1 March, Cáceres said goodbye to her youngest daughter, who was returning to college.

Protests Break Out Across South Asia Against Iran War

March 3, 2026 Abdul Rahman, People's Dispatch. , , ,
Governments in South Asia are facing significant public criticism for their failure to outright condemn the US-Israeli assassination of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei and their joint unprovoked war against Iran. Khamenei was widely regarded as the most important spiritual leader of the Shia faith across the world. Spontaneous mass mobilizations were recorded all across the region on Sunday, March 1, after the news broke of Khamenei’s assassination. More such protests have been called for Monday and Tuesday. Over a dozen Pakistanis were killed when security forces opened fire at demonstrations at US consulates and other foreign offices in Karachi, Lahore, and Skartu on Sunday.

Before Khamenei Killing, CIA Assessed He Would Likely Be Replaced By More Hardline Elements

March 2, 2026 Dave DeCamp, AntiWar. , , ,
Before the US and Israel launched a war against Iran on Saturday morning and killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the CIA assessed that if the Iranian leader were killed, his rule would likely be replaced by “hardline” figures from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Reuters has reported. The report said that the assessment was produced over the past two weeks as the US was building up its forces in the region and preparing to launch the war. The New York Times reported that the CIA had been tracking Khamenei for months and knew that he would be at his compound in Tehran meeting senior Iranian officials on Saturday morning, where he was hit by a joint US-Israeli strike.

Iran confirmed the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei early on March 1. Khamenei, along with several members of his family, was killed in the US-Israeli airstrikes carried out against sites across Iran on February 28. In addition to the Supreme Leader, over 200 Iranians have been killed, including several top officials and commanders, and hundreds have been injured. Iran has declared 40 days of national mourning and mass demonstrations have broken out in cities across the country against the US-Israeli strikes.

The Truth About MLK’s Murder Still Terrifies America

January 20, 2026 Edward J. Curtin Jr. , Scheer Post. , , , , , , ,
Very few Americans are aware of the truth behind the assassination of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., the United States’ celebrated civil rights icon. They know that the U.S. government honored him with a federal holiday, but not of the evidence that the U.S. government killed him. Few books have been written about it, unlike other significant assassinations, especially JFK’s murder. For more than 55 years there has been a media blackout supported by government disinformation to hide the truth. And few people, in the public’s massive act of self-deception, have chosen to question the official explanation of King’s death.

If You Don’t Want To Confront Oppression, Your Role As An Intellectual Is Pointless

September 18, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. , , , ,
At the grave of Berta Isabel Cáceres Flores (1971–2016) in La Esperanza, Honduras, where she was born and died, I watched a yellow butterfly flutter around a bougainvillea bush. It flew as if unconcerned, going from grave to grave in the quiet cemetery. Beside Berta’s grave is that of her brother, Carlos Alberto López Flores (1958–2004), a communist who studied at Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow and was a vital influence on the thinking of his younger sister. The other side of Berta’s grave remains empty. It awaits the body of Carlos and Berta’s mother María Austra Bertha Flores López – known as Mamá Berta – who buried two of her children.

Charlie Kirk’s Racist/Xenophobic Rants Are Not Protected Speech

September 16, 2025 Dr. Wilmer J. Leon, III, Popular Resistance. , , , ,
Political flamethrower Charlie Kirk was shot dead on September 10, 2025, while speaking at a political event at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. Authorities have arrested Utah resident Tyler James Robinson, 22. He allegedly confessed to the shooting to a family member. Kirk’s shooting has triggered a national discussion about the political significance and/or impact that it will have moving forward. There are two basic elements of analysis of this event for me: the human element and the political. From the human perspective, very simply put, this was first degree murder.  It was the unlawful and intentional killing of a human being by another human being with malice and aforethought.  Murder is wrong.

The Doha Assassination Plot, Emergency Summit, And Trump’s Double-Cross

September 15, 2025 Jamal Kanj, Palestine Chronicle. , , , , , ,
Last week’s failed assassination attempt of the Palestinian negotiating team in Doha, Qatar, raises critical questions that extend far beyond the attack itself. The crux of the problem lies in three interconnected issues: the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in targeting individuals, the failure, or deliberate negligence, of the US-led air defense system, and Qatar’s vulnerable position as a host to both a major US base and the ceasefire negotiations. The use of AI will be the topic of a future analysis. Meanwhile, the raid on Qatar did not happen in isolation. The skies over Doha are monitored by the American Air Base in Al Udeid, the largest US military installation in the Middle East. This base is not a marginal outpost; it is the forward headquarters for US Central Command, USCENTCOM, overseeing US military operations throughout the Middle East.
