Hope In The Data: Can Palestine Explain America’s Moral Shift?

April 20, 2026 Ramzy Baroud, People's World. Educate! Israel, Media, Middle East, Palestine, Public Opinion, United States

In the Middle East, the perception of ordinary Americans has long followed a familiar script: detached, uninformed, inward-looking, and politically shallow— a society of “gas guzzlers,” with little grasp of global realities beyond their immediate geography. This perception did not emerge from thin air. It was cultivated—reinforced, even—by American political and media institutions themselves. Politicians claimed to speak on behalf of “the American people,” while mainstream media shaped what those people knew, and, crucially, what they did not know.

Iran And The Psychopathology Of White Supremacy

March 6, 2026 Ajamu Baraka, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Iran, Middle East, US Imperialism, Western Hegemony, White Supremacy

The sincere belief that the sadistic brutalization of the Palestinian people would sever their connection to their land; that a sixty-year siege on Cuba would compel its people to abandon their revolution; or that assassinating Iran’s revolutionary and spiritual leadership would force the country to surrender its sovereignty to its historic tormentors in the United States and the Zionist ethno-state of Israel—these are not simply policy miscalculations. They are manifestations of what I call the psychopathology of white supremacy. This psychopathology is not reducible to individual prejudice.

Christmas Is Not A Western Story; It Is A Palestinian One

December 24, 2025 Rev Dr Munther Isaac, Al Jazeera. Resist! Christmas, History, Middle East, Palestine

Every December, much of the Christian world enters a familiar cycle of celebration: carols, lights, decorated trees, consumer frenzy and the warm imagery of a snowy night. In the United States and Europe, public discourse often speaks of “Western Christian values”, or even the vague notion of “Judeo-Christian civilisation”. These phrases have become so common that many assume, almost automatically, that Christianity is inherently a Western religion — an expression of European culture, history and identity. It is not.

Saudi Arabia Just Said No To Israel And The United States

November 22, 2025 Mnar Adley, MintPress News. Resistance Report Israel, Middle East, Palestine, United Nations (UN), US Imperialism

The United States is trying to shape the Middle East in the image it wants. From pushing through its plan for Gaza at the United Nations, to pulling Syria and Saudi Arabia closer into its orbit, President Trump may soon get the Middle East that he desires. However, he will not get it all his own way, as forces from Iran, Yemen, and across the region still oppose Trump’s plans and fight against it. All the while, Israel continues to expand its control of its neighbors. This week, it has been stepping up bombing campaigns against targets in Lebanon from its bases in the occupied south of the country.

Al-Qaeda Goes To Washington

November 12, 2025 Patrick Lawrence, Consortium News. Educate! Ahmed al-Sharaa, Al-Qaeda, History, Israel, Middle East, Syria, US Foreign Policy, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism

I never thought I would see the day, but the day came Monday, when Ahmed al–Sharaa arrived at the White House for a sit-down with President Donald Trump and the usual gaggle of misfits who must be there to make sure the Trumpster understands at least a little of what is being said. A freak-show terrorist amid all that retro Oval Office elegance: Who could have imagined so offensive a tableau? Al–Sharaa, alert readers will know, is one of those dripping-with-blood Sunni jihadists who, during the West’s extended covert operation against the Assad regime in Syria, had the habit of changing their names and the names of their murderous militias whenever the world figured out who they were and the extent of their savagery.

‘Forever Wars’ Authorization Finally Repealed By US House

September 13, 2025 Stephen Prager, Consortium News. Educate! AUMF, Congress, History, Middle East, military spending, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism

Almost exactly 24 years after the September 11, 2001 attacks, the U.S. House of Representatives voted this week to finally repeal a pair of more than two-decade-old congressional authorizations that have allowed presidents to carry out military attacks in the Middle East and elsewhere. In a 261-167 vote, with 49 Republicans joining all Democrats, the House passed an amendment to the next military spending bill to rescind the Authorizations for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) passed by Congress in the lead-up to the 1991 Persian Gulf War and 2003 War in Iraq. The decision is a small act of resistance in Congress after what the Quincy Institute’s Adam Weinstein described in Foreign Policy magazine as “years of neglected oversight” by Congress over the “steady expansion of presidential war-making authority.”

When The Empire Chokes, The South Breathes

The story they sell is that “order” was built by reasoned men in sensible suits. The story we live is different. Multipolarity did not grow out of seminars or summits; it is the aftershock of five centuries of plunder, the recoil from wars and sanctions, and the refusal of the colonized to keep paying for someone else’s civilization. Its genealogy runs from the Bandung Communiqué (1955)—the first great gathering where the majority of humanity spoke in its own name—through the long detour of debt, structural adjustment, and counter-insurgency masquerading as “development.” Bandung’s promise was simple and subversive: sovereignty, peaceful coexistence, cooperation, and a say in the world economy for those who actually make the world economy run.

Iran And Its ‘Ring Of Fire’

July 8, 2025 Vanessa Beeley, Orinoco Tribune. Educate! Axis of Resistance, Iran, Middle East, Tel Aviv, US military bases, Washington

Resistance to the Imperialist project in the West Asia (Middle East) region has deep historical and cultural roots for the people of the region. It was never exclusive to any religion; it was linked to an Arab identity and civilisation. The modern-day dominance of an Islamic Resistance is a phenomenon that is relatively recent and should not be seen through a sectarian lens, as it remains inclusive of all sects and ideologies. Religion and culture have historically encouraged a path to justice, defence of territorial integrity, regional identity, and human dignity.

Next Week, Trump And Netanyahu Will Meet To Plan ‘New Middle East’

July 6, 2025 Mitchell Plitnick, Mondoweiss. Educate! Benjamin Netanyahu, Donald Trump, Ethnic cleansing, Gaza, Middle East, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism

U.S. President Donald Trump seems to have largely moved on from Iran and is now setting his sights on instituting a broader new order in the Middle East. Trump’s vision consists of an Israel-centric regional order that sees Iran and Hezbollah defeated and normalization with Israel spreading across the region, from Lebanon and Syria to Oman and Saudi Arabia. Joining him in creating this vision is Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is slated to visit the White House on Monday. While there are potentially many obstacles to enacting this U.S./Israeli plan, it is clear that one focus is to quash any Palestinian aspirations for freedom.

The Only Weapons Of Mass Destruction In The Middle East Are Zionism, Israel’s Nukes And US/Western Imperialism

June 22, 2025 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Israel, Middle East, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism, Zionism

The zionist ethnostate has been spoiling for a war with Iran for decades. Who can forget the comedic, cartoonish, yet dark presentation of Benjamin Netanyahu to the United Nations in 2012 when he suggested that Iran was on the brink of developing a nuclear weapon. Netanyahu and other neocons have been peddling the false narrative about Iran’s nuclear timeline for decades, but this time is much different because it was acted upon, which has resulted in more death, more illegal acts that are egregious violations of international law and more global instability at the hands of the zionist ethnostate and its willing collaborators in the U.S. and the West.

Chris Hedges: War Deja Vu

June 20, 2025 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. Educate! Chris Hedges, Donald Trump, George W. Bush, History, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Middle East, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism

There are few differences between the lies told to ignite the war with Iraq and the lies told to ignite a war with Iran. The assessments of our intelligence agencies and international bodies are, as they were during the calls to invade Iraq, airily dismissed for hallucinations. All the old tropes have been resurrected to entice us into another military fiasco. A country that poses no threat to us, or to its neighbors, is on the verge of acquiring a Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD) that imperils our existence. The country and its leaders embody pure evil. Freedom and democracy are at stake.

The Middle East Is On Fire; Israeli And US Imperialism Lit The Match

June 19, 2025 Black Alliance For Peace, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Iran, Israel, Middle East, Palestine, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism

Overnight, the zionist entity of Israel escalated its war of aggression against Iran by launching unprovoked attacks on the Islamic Republic. The notion that a rogue ethnostate that is currently carrying out a genocide believes that it possesses the right to determine which countries can and cannot develop a nuclear weapon is both bizarre and egregious as well as brazenly hypocritical, and further demonstrates that the State of Israel operates firmly within the structures of white “supremacy” ideology, colonialism, and imperialism. Iran, like all sovereign nations, has the right to defend itself from aggression and uphold its security in the face of repeated threats and acts of war.

Chris Hedges Report: Arab Regimes And The Betrayal Of Palestine

February 7, 2025 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. Resistance Report Arab World, Donald Trump, Israel, Middle East, Muslims, Palestine, Repression

Farah El-Sharif, writer, academic and Visiting Scholar at Stanford, is uncompromisingly blunt in her assessment of the Middle East. The decades of repression faced by an entire people have produced a fragmented society—culturally and through colonially imposed borders. To help understand why the Muslim world is so broken, corrupt and full of contradictions, El Sherif joins host Chris Hedges on this episode of The Chris Hedges Report. “The systemic repression that Muslim communities worldwide experience is inextricably linked to the interventionist, expansionist, supremacist American-Israeli Western project,” El Sharif says.

Washington’s Unstoppable Superweapon

December 29, 2024 Brian Berletic, Orinoco Tribune. Educate! China, Disinformation, Iran, Middle East, National Endowment for Democracy (NED), NATO, Russia, US Imperialism

In recent months, even across the collective West’s media, growing admissions are being made about both Russia and China’s superior military industrial capacity. With Russia’s first use of the intermediate-range ballistic missile, the Oreshnik, it is admitted that Russia (and likely China) possess formidable military capabilities the collective West currently lacks. Despite the collective efforts of NATO in arming, training, and backing Ukraine, Ukrainian forces continue to give ground at an accelerated rate across the entire line of contact amid the ongoing Russian Special Military Operation (SMO).

Across The Middle East, The BDS Movement Is Thriving

December 24, 2024 Farah Awadalla, Waging Nonviolence. Resist! BDS Movement, Israel, Middle East, Palestine, Palestine Solidarity

In the bustling streets of Cairo, a bold banner hangs outside the Writers’ Syndicate, confronting passersby with a piercing statement: “Every pound you spend on their products returns as a bullet in your brother’s back.” This message critiques the economic and political ties between the listed multinational products and Israel. The visual captures the spirit of a region-wide movement, where ordinary people are transforming everyday choices into acts of defiance against forces that fuel war and perpetuate conflict.
