Why did Jeffrey Goldberg leave the ‘bomb Yemen’ Signal chat?

25 March 2025 @ 4:41 pm

With momentum for a strike on Iran building within the Trump White House, Goldberg was apparently summoned to move the neocon message. And he wound up with more access than he could handle. Atlantic Magazine editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg has won the admiration of his Beltway peers for the conduct he displayed after being accidentally invited into a smoke-filled “bomb Yemen” Signal chat with Trump’s national security honchos and top advisors. “Props to Jeffrey Goldberg for his high standards as a professional […] The post Why did Jeffrey Goldberg leave the ‘bomb Yemen’ Signal chat? first appeared on The Grayzone.

Ukraine guilty of human rights violations in trade union massacre, top European court finds

24 March 2025 @ 3:45 pm

The court condemned Ukrainian authorities for failing to prevent a fiery 2014 massacre in which dozens of anti-Nazi activists were burned alive – but the judges’ political bias meant victims were implicitly blamed for their fate, and their families received a paltry 15,000 euro payout. The European Court of Human Rights has found the Ukrainian government guilty of committing human rights violations during the May 2, 2014 Odessa massacre, in which dozens of Russian-speaking demonstrators were forced into the city’s […] The post Ukraine guilty of human rights violations in trade union massacre, top European court finds first appeared on The Grayzone.

20 March 2025 @ 3:52 pm

Unit 8200 wrote the programming and designed the algorithms that automated the genocide of Gaza and was also responsible for the pager attack in Lebanon. Now those who helped design the architecture of apartheid are being swallowed by the US tech-surveillance complex. This article was originally published by ¡Do Not Panic! On Mar. 18, Google bought Israeli cybersecurity company Wiz for $32 billion. The acquisition will mark the single largest transfer of former Israeli spies into an American company.

18 March 2025 @ 9:25 pm

US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has just called for other countries to join the US in attacking the Houthis in Yemen, a country in which she once strongly opposed intervention.

‘Independent’ anti-Russia outlet Meduza faces collapse after US funding slashed

18 March 2025 @ 9:10 pm

After fervently denying that they relied on financial support from the US government, the supposedly “independent” Russian language paper Meduza has been thrown into existential crisis following the Trump administration’s pause on foreign development assistance Alexey Kovalev, a self-described “Russian journalist currently living in exile for fear of persecution back home,” had spent much of his career at Meduza, the leading opposition media outlet in Russia. Since leaving the paper under mysterious circumstances in the summer of 2023 and relocating to […] The post ‘Independent’ anti-Russia outlet Meduza faces collapse after US funding slashed first appeared on The Grayzone.

Court docs show US govt knew about – and used – Chicago ‘black site’

15 March 2025 @ 9:06 pm

It wasn’t just Chicago Police running Homan Square, the notorious off-the-books holding facility where detainees alleged heinous civil rights violations. The US Department of Justice has also used the building, which continues to operate a decade after being exposed as the site of alleged torture and unlawful detentions. This article was originally published by Noir News. Scandals don’t get much more disturbing than that of Homan Square. In 2015, the Guardian revealed Chicago Police had allegedly employed torture and days-long […] The post Court docs show US govt knew about – and used – Chicago ‘black site’ first appeared on The Grayzone.

Thousands reported killed in Syria as HTS-allied forces attack, execute Alawites

11 March 2025 @ 4:49 pm

Editor’s note: Sectarian Sunni forces linked to the new HTS-led government of Syria have massacred over 1300 Alawites in the past week, according to a conservative estimate. The Grayzone has spoken to staff from a Western aid organization currently on the ground in Syria who say the death toll is much higher than the official count. They told us that over 4000 Alawites have been killed, thousands are wounded with little access to medical assistance, and some 200,000 are internally […] The post Thousands reported killed in Syria as HTS-allied forces attack, execute Alawites first appeared on The Grayzone.

USAID funded Ukraine group that smeared VP Vance as pro-Russia ‘propagandist’

10 March 2025 @ 3:13 pm

US Pres. Donald Trump has lambasted USAID for absurd foreign expenditures. But Trump has omitted perhaps the most scandalous operation: in Ukraine, the US funded groups which defamed the US Vice President, members of Congress, and US journalists as “foreign propagandists,” while training Ukrainians in “PSYOP” tactics. The US government funded a Ukrainian military intelligence firm which smeared US Vice President JD Vance, US Counterterrorism Director Joe Kent, and Rep. Thomas Massie as “foreign propagandists of the Russian Federation.” To […] The post USAID funded Ukraine group that smeared VP Vance as pro-Russia ‘propagandist’ first appeared on The Grayzone.

‘Biased’ UN report on Nicaragua ignores victims of US-backed opposition violence

5 March 2025 @ 7:40 pm

A new UN report relies on a US government-funded operative, Felix Maradiaga, who helped instigate the violent 2018 coup to remove President Daniel Ortega in 2018.  Yet UN “experts” have refused to interview the many Nicaraguans kidnapped and tortured by the opposition. MASAYA, NICARAGUA – Reynaldo Urbina rides his motorbike around the streets of Masaya, Nicaragua, with agility, despite having only one arm. Nearly seven years ago, at the height of a US- supported coup attempt against Nicaragua’s left-wing Sandinista […] The post ‘Biased’ UN report on Nicaragua ignores victims of US-backed opposition violence first appeared on The Grayzone.
