  • Trump Repeats "White Genocide" Falsehoods in Meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa

    President Donald Trump staged an extraordinary confrontation in the Oval Office on Wednesday, repeating his false claims about a “white genocide” taking place in South Africa during a meeting with the country’s president, Cyril Ramaphosa. At one point, Trump had the lights dimmed and ordered video clips played showing people calling for violence against white farmers in South Africa. The ambush was the latest in the administration’s campaign to paint the South African government as racist against Afrikaners, the white minority that ruled the country during apartheid. South African political economist Lebohang Pheko describes the Oval Office meeting as an “act of aggression” intended to shore up Trump’s racist base. Trump “seems to have a great appetite for these spurious white supremacist ideologies [because] they mirror his own extremely skewed worldview,” says Pheko.

  • U.K. MP Jeremy Corbyn & EU MP Lynn Boylan on Europe Pressuring Israel to Halt Atrocities in Gaza

    International criticism of Israel continues to grow as the country’s military expands its assault on Gaza, killing scores of Palestinians on a daily basis while blocking food, fuel, medicine and other supplies from reaching the starving population. The U.K. Labour government announced this week it is suspending free trade talks with Israel and imposing sanctions on some Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank. The European Union says it will also review its trade ties with Israel. “There’s been an enormous shift in public opinion, and it’s caused by utter revulsion at seeing emaciated children starve to death,” says Jeremy Corbyn, former U.K. Labour leader who now sits as an independent in the British Parliament. “We have countries within the EU who are significant weapons providers to the Israeli state. If they wanted this conflict, this war and genocide to end tomorrow, then they need to stop supplying weapons to Israel,” says Irish politician Lynn Boylan, a member of Sinn Féin who sits in the European Parliament.
