FULL ARTICLEThe Real Reason Why Islamophobia Sweeping Across the US
By Kevin Barrett, for Press TV Alaa Massri, who’s an activist in New York, was recently arrested and stripped of her hijab by the police, who then distributed the photo. This is one of many indignities that Muslim women in the US sometimes suffer. We’ve had a wave of Islamophobia sweeping across the US ever since the September 11 false flag operation, which was actually orchestrated precisely to generate that kind of Islamophobia, and to weaponize it, both in service to wars around the world against the enemies of Israel and Zionism, and also to try to put a lid…
FULL ARTICLEChickenhawks Trump, Bolton, Netanyahu terrified of Iran
“So what are we to make of these two evil clowns, with Trump being mostly clown, and Netanyahu being mostly evil?” By Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor, interviewed by Press TV John Bolton has leaked the manuscript of his new unapproved book about his experiences in the Trump administration. And of course, the top headlines are that Bolton is confirming all these other reports that Trump is incompetent. And also, I think Bolton is echoing earlier reports that the hawkish side of the national security deep state doesn’t find Trump a very good leader, because Trump is not reliable, and his…
FULL ARTICLEThe Debate – Saudis & Child-Killer Blacklist
Press TV Just as the UN took Saudi Arabia off the child killer list, the Saudi-led coalition struck Yemen, which led to the deaths of children. Why does the UN, which is supposed to watch out for the well-being of children, take Saudi Arabia off a list in which it knows it is guilty if those crimes? In this edition of the debate, we will ask this exact question from our guests, and look at why this illegal war is still being waged one of the poorest countries in the world…
FULL ARTICLEUS bankers stole $7 trillion during COVID-19 lockdown, destroyed small businesses
By Kevin Barrett, for Press TV Donald Trump has a way of saying a lot of crazy and incoherent things. And he’s such a ‘genius’ at it that people (like comedian Sarah Cooper) can parody him pretty much by just playing a tape of what he says. And recently, the most recent example of this is his quite amazing statement that the concept of chokeholds sounds ‘so innocent, so perfect.’ That is a very strange statement. It sounds like something that an insane murderer would say after he’s been arrested for choking hundreds of people to death. They finally got…
FULL ARTICLEIsrael taught ‘knee-on-neck’ terror tactic to US police: Analyst
By Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor for Press TV USA Today just published an article about the history of police brutality against black people in the United States, going back to pre-United States colonial times. The headline cites the 400-year history of anti-black racism in the United States. It talks about the slave patrols that were basically vigilante squads that enforced slavery and tried to catch runaway slaves and those who helped them. And then after the Civil War and the abolition of slavery similar groups like the Ku Klux Klan sprang up, and often got assistance from police departments and…

FULL ARTICLEICC people should stay out of planes after Pompeo’s gangster style warning
By Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor interviewed by Press TV Mike Pompeo is warning that there will be consequences if the International Criminal Court (ICC) investigates Israel. It sounds like a gangster style warning. Warning about ‘consequences’ actually is often code for ‘we will kill you and your family’ among organized crime figures, and the people in politics who are basically organized crime types. A famous example is when Dick Cheney threatened that there would be the “most extreme consequences for yourself, and the state of Minnesota” to Paul Wellstone. He said if Paul Wellstone continued to pursue the path…
