Manufacturing Dissent

Lowkey’s video is a breakdown of who actually controls the platforms people use every day. Not in an abstract “tech ethics” way — in a very real “your screen is being managed by people with military and political agendas” way. The companies buying into TikTok aren’t random investors. They’re tied into Israeli military contracts, U.S. defense money, Gulf surveillance networks, and billionaire famil...

Since October 2023, Israel has been killing journalists in Gaza at a rate the world has never seen before. Not in Iraq. Not in Syria. Not in Afghanistan. Not anywhere. Gaza is the deadliest place on earth to be a journalist. It’s not “fog of war.” The world knows it’s deliberate. Israel has killed 311 journalists. Three hundred and eleven. Let that number sink in. That’s not a statistic. That’s an...

For years, anyone who said Israel had its claws in American churches was brushed off as dramatic or conspiratorial. Then MintPress News published a FARA‑based investigation showing Israeli-linked firms spying on millions of American Christians inside their own churches. And now, with filmmaker Nathan Apffel saying out loud on Tucker Carlson’s show, the whole operation is finally being dragged into...

How It Started — Before the Name, Before the Flags Hezbollah didn’t begin as a political party or a military machine. It started as a reaction to something simple and brutal: Lebanon was invaded, and nobody was coming to save the people living in the south. In 1982, when Israel rolled into Lebanon all the way to Beirut, the south was already exhausted. Villages were bombed. Families were displaced...

Former Foreign Minister Bob Carr recent OnePath interview admitted, openly, that the Israeli lobby in Australia has shaped political behaviour for decades. He talked about pressure, intimidation, and the way criticism of Israel is treated as a career-ending offense. Australia has entered a moment where even mild criticism of Israel is treated like a threat to national security. After the Bondi sho...

Artificial intelligence is sold as progress. Companies talk about efficiency, innovation, and a better future. But the reality behind the scenes looks very different. The DW documentary shows the real cost: land stripped for data centers, water pumped out of stressed regions, electricity pulled from fossil fuels, and millions of low‑paid workers carrying the weight of training these systems. AI is...

A new interpretation of "Comfortably Numb, a collaboration between Roger Waters and Palestinian artist Mona Miari. Featuring newly written verses in English and Arabic, the work reframes the song through themes of displacement, memory, loss, and the enduring pursuit of justice and human dignity. Created with artists from Palestine and beyond, this audio-visual piece transcends borders and language...

The way Professor Mohammad Marandi described it, Iran didn’t just fire missiles — it changed the entire equation. He spoke while everything was still unfolding, but he was clear about one thing: Iran’s response wasn’t impulsive or theatrical. It was the result of months of U.S. and Israeli escalation that Tehran could no longer absorb without looking weak. “The Iranians had to retaliate,” he said...

Israel has spent decades cultivating the image of an intelligence empire. Mossad, Shin Bet and Aman were presented as institutions that could see threats before they formed. But Infiltration from Within, the Al Jazeera documentary, shows a different story: a state repeatedly blindsided by its own assumptions, its own people and its own political leadership. When you place the film’s material along...

The Prop & Co video taps into a belief system that’s been building for years — the idea that Trump’s 2024 run isn’t just another election, but part of a religious script. The video lays out claims tying Trump to Chabad‑Lubavitch, the Butler shooting, and the push toward a “Final Battle” involving Iran. Whether people agree with it or not isn’t the point. The point is that there are groups who genu...

The VrilliumLive/YT video lays out the basic connections. The pattern is obvious once you stop pretending these people just “showed up” in politics on their own. Shabtai isn’t some harmless student club. It’s a pipeline — a grooming network. It’s a place where certain people get fast‑tracked while everyone else gets told to “work hard” and “earn it.” And somehow two of the loudest “America First”...

They told us it was about security. They lied. The proscription of Palestine Action was not a sober counter‑terrorism decision; it was the outcome of a deliberate, well‑resourced campaign by Israeli‑aligned lobby networks, defence contractors and high‑profile advocates that bent UK policy to punish critics of Israel. At the centre of that campaign stood Catherine Perez‑Shakdam and the lobby group...

Palantir is now inside the data systems tied to America’s nuclear missiles. A private company is now wired into the digital side of the most dangerous weapons the U.S. has. They didn’t start with nukes. They spent years working their way into the military: counterterrorism data, surveillance tools, battlefield software. Step by step, they became the company the Pentagon leans on for almost everyth...

Stephen Miller didn’t rise through elections or public trust. He rose through force, strategy, and an obsession with immigration as the central battlefield of American politics. The Fault Lines documentary lays out the core of it: Miller built and directed a network of immigration operations that pushed federal power into the streets of Democratic‑run cities. These weren’t small raids. They were c...

Ron Paul and Daniel McAdams have been warning that Congress is moving fast to lock the United States into a permanent military and intelligence merger with Israel. Two bills are driving it. The first is Section 224 of the National Defense Authorization Act , which would integrate US and Israeli defense technology, weapons production, data systems, and military research. It goes far beyond normal c...

Tucker Carlson brought on Professor John Mearsheimer, and Mearsheimer didn’t soften a single point. He said what Israel is doing in Gaza is genocide. He said the U.S. is tied to it and can’t pretend it isn’t. He said the war with Iran is going badly. Not for Iran — for the U.S. and Israel. He said the idea of a clean exit is fiction. Iran isn’t collapsing. Iran isn’t close to defeat. The longer th...

Stephen Kapos survived the Holocaust as a child in Hungary. In a Double Down News video he speaks about Gaza with blunt clarity. He says what is happening to Palestinians is a Holocaust. He says the Israeli government is shaping a “final solution” for the Palestinian people. And he says none of it will ever be done in his name. Kapos says Jewish suffering has been turned into a shield for state vi...

Al Jazeera ’s new investigation brings forward what Palestinians have been reporting for years: rape, sexual torture and humiliation are being used inside Israeli detention sites as a deliberate method of control. The film gathers testimonies from former detainees who describe the same pattern of abuse, carried out in the same way, across different prisons and military facilities. One of the centr...

In a recent interview, Professor Mohammad Marandi insisted that Iran’s stance is firm: No agreements with the Trump administration will happen until Washington meets their conditions. He listed those conditions as the return of Iranian assets, an end to aggression in Gaza and Lebanon, lifting the siege, and ending sanctions. Marandi also said that Iran downed a US Apache helicopter over Hormuz. He...

Scott Pelley didn’t walk into that interview to perform. He walked in carrying grief. You could see it in the way his voice caught, the way he kept circling back to the same wound. The man who spent decades reporting from war zones finally looked like someone hit by friendly fire. He said losing his job at 60 Minutes felt like losing a spouse. He didn’t dress it up. He didn’t try to sound tough. H...

Jewish journalist Katie Halper says she takes no pleasure in comparing Israel’s actions in Gaza to the crimes Jews suffered under Nazi rule. She says the comparison is painful, but the reality forces it. In a Double Down News video, she talks about the shock of watching a state that claims to act “for Jews” carry out the same patterns of violence Jews were once trapped inside. Halper points to the...

Data centers are not the future — they’re the bill Americans are being forced to pay for a digital world that’s expanding faster than the country can sustain. These buildings are marketed as “clean tech,” but the reality is closer to heavy industry: massive power consumption, water depletion, pollution, land destruction, and a growing dependence on infrastructure that’s already cracking under the...

The 35‑minute compilation by TaroWheel pulls together something people have been noticing for years but rarely see laid out in one place: documented cases, across multiple countries, where individual Jewish people staged or fabricated antisemitic hate crimes. These aren’t rumors or fringe claims. They’re police investigations, court records, and mainstream media reports. The incidents vary — vanda...

In this Lego animation news parody by IRANLEGONEWS and CNNIRANLEGO/YouTube , we walk through the entire Freedom 250 meltdown — the moment Martina McBride, The Commodores, Young MC, Bret Michaels, Morris Day and The Time, C+C Music Factory, and Milli Vanilli all quit after realizing the event was tied to Trump’s White House initiative, not the nonpartisan America250 commission they thought they wer...
