  • DNC Set to Convene While Stance on Israel Roils Party

    Members of the Democratic National Committee are gathering in New Orleans on Thursday for a three-day meeting, while national polling shows a huge gap between the views of registered Democrats and the party’s leadership on U.S. support for Israel.


  • Trump and “Madman Doctrine”

    “What makes this moment so troubling is not just the scale of the conflict, but how it grew out of years of distorted debate, where Iran was reduced to simplistic, fear-driven narratives and serious warnings were brushed aside.”


  • Trump Dominates UN, Israel Ethnically Cleanses in Lebanon

    “The UN Security Council will consider another outrageous resolution [Friday], this time drafted by Bahrain (the current UNSC President and a US-Israel ally). A month into the U.S.-Israel unlawful aggression on Iran, the draft is entirely silent on the aggression, its perpetrators, and on ending the attacks, and instead seeks to expand the conflict by authorizing military force against Iran in the Strait of Hormuz and even in Iranian territorial waters.”


  • The DNC’s Disconnect with Democrats on Israel

    As the Democratic National Committee, the governing body of the Democratic Party, prepares to convene its semiannual meeting on April 9 in New Orleans, activists are pushing to bring the party into line with the views of registered Democrats on Israel.

  • Statement from the Board of Directors and Executive Director of the Institute for Public Accuracy

    The Institute for Public Accuracy has received dismayed inquiries about a recent post on the personal X account of Sam Husseini, who is IPA’s communications director and senior analyst. The post––“BREAKING: Iran kills FIVE BILLION PEOPLE”––was not attributed to or in any way endorsed by IPA, nor would such content ever appear on an IPA feed, website, statement or news release. At the same time that Mr. Husseini of course has a right to express his opinion as an individual, we want to make clear that IPA does not condone his sarcastic post. As an organization dedicated to human rights for…


  • Misleading Spin About the SAVE Act

    The SAVE Act would “throw up obstacles for all voters, making it more difficult for them to access their rights,” FAIR media analyst Julie Hollar writes. She argues that many mainstream media outlets have failed to properly cover the dangers of the SAVE Act or to debunk Republicans’ false claims about voter fraud, instead falling back on “standard framing of ‘Republicans say X, Democrats say Y’––or, worse, of ‘Democrats vs. the public.’” 


  • Jewish Power Party Wins Death Penalty by Noose

    “The Knesset’s approved legislation will no longer perform the death penalty via lethal injection but rather transform the execution of Palestinian detainees into a colonial spectacle. In other words, the original mode of colonial execution has been restored as the chosen method of capital punishment par excellence.“

The defendant reportedly planned to flee to Israel following the attack.”


  • Overcoming the US Veto

    “For the sixth time, the US has vetoed a ceasefire in the Gaza genocide, underscoring once again the grave threat to the world posed by the US-Israel axis. The violent, racist, and lawless rampage of the axis is leaving a trail of murder and destruction across Western Asia and the wider world, corrupting governments and…

  • Equating Jews and Israel Assessed as a “Propaganda Technique”

    “Equating Israel with all Jews and Israel’s future with theirs is an effort to sanctify Israel and shield it from criticism by brandishing the charge of antisemitism,” Norman Solomon wrote in The Guardian this week. He added: “By insisting that it is the embodiment of Jews all over the world, the state of Israel seeks…

One insidious consequence of the closures of abortion…

  • New President of the UNGA Has Openly Backed Israel’s Genocide

    “Baerbock is not just any diplomat. As Germany’s foreign minister from 2021 to 2025, she tried to justify over and over again Israel’s war crimes as ‘self-defence,’ rejected ceasefires, and her country continued to provide Israel with hundreds of millions of dollars in weapons, making it its second biggest arms supplier. She de facto became one of…

  • UN Passes “Problematic” Resolution as Push for Measures to Stop Israel Continues

    “The UNGA voted overwhelmingly today to ‘endorse’ the New York Declaration put forward by France and Saudi Arabia.     Among its many problematic provisions, the Declaration supports a ‘stabilization force’ (with many bad elements as well), instead of a protection force as such.”

  • RFK Jr. Abandons Long COVID Patients

    Though Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pledged to tackle Long COVID during his HHS confirmation hearings, he has abandoned the plight of Long COVID patients by dismantling federal COVID prevention programs and the research infrastructure invested in researching and treating the condition.
