  • 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).

  • 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…

    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.’”

  • U.N. Still Hasn’t Declared a Famine in Gaza, a Year After Palestinian Groups Called for It

    “Secretary General Guteress should not allow Israel’s deliberate blocking of data collection to impede a formal famine declaration and provide cover for this genocide by starvation.

  • Not a War in Gaza — It’s Genocide
