Francesca Albanese at the Macklemore Concert, Paris, October 29 2026 “Bismillah - c’est la lumière” An excellent surprise guest at the concert with a tremendous closure to her speech. Playing on the sardonic French protest slogan "Bismillah c'est les ténèbres" - “in the name of God, it is darkness” (written by an agent provocateur online, reclaimed by the protest movement) , Albanese: For the children of Palestine who will see you - brighten your light. “Bismillah - c’est la lumière!!!!” (“In the name of God, it is the light”)
We got a furious response from the former Conservative minister Lord Michael Gove when we asked about his position on Israel at the Labour Conference. Gove accused us of 'antisemitism', of not being journalists and of an obsession with Israel, despite the Labour government's change in position on the occupation of Palestine being the key topic at this year's conference. Gove now sits in the House of Lords and is editor of right-wing magazine The Spectator. We showed the interview to a former political correspondent at The Spectator, Peter Oborne, who said it was ridiculous to claim Declassified was only focussed only Israel because we cover all aspects of British foreign policy
In this extended interview, directors Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor speak powerfully about their explosive new documentary, NAZA. The film features 24 Israeli soldiers and intelligence officers breaking ranks to expose the reality of the war in Gaza, from automated AI targeting systems to calculated civilian casualty rates, known as ‘NAZA’. Acclaimed internationally but branded treasonous by critics at home, the filmmakers offer a gripping, unflinching account of Israel's war on Gaza. NAZA is now showing in UK cinemas.
ISRAEL NEVER WANTS PEACE Ilan Pappé RIPS Into Israel’s History at Oxford Union Debate
Historian Ilan Pappé argues against the motion that Israel has ever genuinely sought peace with the Palestinians during an Oxford Union debate. Pappé presents Zionism as a colonial project, arguing that its establishment and continuation involved violence, coercion and British imperial support. He also describes modern Israel as an apartheid state, citing assessments by human rights organisations, and argues that Palestinian demands for democracy and self-determination were systematically suppressed, culminating in what he describes as the ethnic cleansing of 1948. Pappé concludes by urging the audience to reject the idea that Israel has sought peace and frames the issue as a moral choice over whether to remain complicit or stand on what he calls the “right side of history”. The claims and characterisations in this video reflect Pappé’s arguments during the debate.

"Release the hostages, and the war will end tomorrow." Remember that line?
It's time to talk about the bombshell new article in Haaretz that reveals Netanyahu was warned Hamas was planning a "major operation" before October 7th.
But we're more interested in the second revelation: that Hamas actually OFFERED to release the hostages at 7pm the night of the attack.
A new report alleges that Israeli authorities and security forces have "deliberately carried out acts inflicting death and severe bodily and mental harm on hundreds of thousands of Palestinian children", and that the killings continued even after last October's ceasefire in Gaza.
The commission says it has reasonable grounds to conclude that those acts "form part of a deliberate strategy to destroy the future of the Palestinians in Gaza by targeting their children".
1953: The CIA led coup that still shapes Iran | Turning Point In 1951, Mohammad Mosaddegh nationalised Iran’s oil, ending 50 years of Britain’s monopoly over Iranian oil. Two years later, he was overthrown in a covert coup backed by the CIA and Britain. This is the story of how one week in August changed Iran and still shapes the country to this day.
