Bahrain regime seeks to kidnap and torture soccer star Hakeem al-Araibi

Kevin Barrett

The morning after the Super Bore, South African station Radio Islam International called me to ask about football. But not the Patriots-Rams snorefest! Instead, they wanted an opinion on the Bahraini regime’s attempt to recapture and re-torture footballer (soccer player) Hakeem al-Araibi. His crime: speaking out against the regime back in 2011. Middle Eastern “football” is even more politically charged than the American “stand for the anthem or else” game.  Underdog Qatar’s dazzling victory in the Asia cup a few days ago smeared egg all over the faces of the tyrants ruling Saudi Arabia and the UAE, whose blockade (an…

Kevin Barrett

Riyadh, “Saudi” Arabia Dissociated Press In a major breakthrough for women’s rights in the desert kingdom, Clown Prince Bin Salman (BS) has issued an edict proclaiming that henceforth women will have full and equal rights to be beheaded. “There is no place in a modern, air-conditioned country like ours for archaic relics of the medieval past,” BS announced at a press conference beside the gallows in Chop-Chop Square in downtown Riyadh. “For too long we have discriminated against peaceful female dissidents. Are not their heads worth every bit as much as those of their male counterparts? Beginning today, a woman…

Soren Korsgaard: US “justice” system is CRIMINAL!

Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE Soren Korsgaard, editor of the peer-reviewed criminology journal Radians and Inches: The Journal of Crime, discusses the crimes of the American criminal justice system, which systematically uses torture and slavery in pursuit of maximum profit for billionaires—who are far worse criminals than anyone who gets prosecuted, incarcerated, enslaved, and tortured. If there really were a “responsibility to protect” (R2P) the international community would need to bomb the USA back to the Stone Age, invade us, and liberate the millions (a great many of them innocent) enslaved and tortured in America’s privatized for-profit prisons—then arrest, prosecute, and sentence those responsible…

Suu Ky’s silence on oppression of Muslims shocking: Analyst

Kevin Barrett

Rohingya people trying to cross the Naf river into Bangladesh to escape the genocide The West, led by the US, is pouring huge sums of money into Myanmar (Burma) and blathering about the supposed “democratization” of that long-time human rights pariah nation. Meanwhile, the Rohingyas – a Muslim ethnic group called “the most persecuted group in the world” by the UN – are facing slow-motion extermination. Though they’ve lived there for centuries, Burma’s government refuses to grant them citizenship, and is trying to get rid of them. Mass murder, pogroms, the burning of homes and mosques – the usual tools…

“Disable the purveyors”: Is US secretly liquidating dissidents?

Kevin Barrett

My new Press TV article “Disable the purveyors”: Is US secretly liquidating dissidents?,” published yesterday, is going viral. I hope it helps shame the US government into becoming a global leader in human rights, rather than human rights violations. And the one from a few days ago, Turks remain blasé over false flag ops, is also getting around. I love how Press TV, Veterans Today, and Russia Today offer big, widely-viewed platforms for seriously dissident English-language journalism. If you have friends and family who are still being dumbed down by Fox, CNN, PBS, and/or the foundation-funded pseudo-alternative outlets, tell them…
