Washington’s sanctions on Moscow will destroy Europe, not Russia
Excellent analysis of the protests in Lebanon by Laith Marouf: Hear me out about Lebanon; although all the demands of the protesters are legitimate, the cascade of events that triggered them is all planned meticulously. Since 2017, the Empire and its local enforcers, Apartheid Israel and Saudi Occupied Arabia, wanted the government of PM Hariri to collapse, therefore bringing down the […]
Vanessa Beeley on UK Column News – featuring Kevork Almassian – discusses UK government’s proscription of the Wagner Group and the precarious situation re Armenia and Azerbaijan.
The following article by BSN editor Alison Banville was published in The Morning Star. A few days ago I joined a large crowd gathered outside the Department of Transport in London. There were ornate union banners being held aloft proudly emblazoned with ‘Manchester RMT’, ‘Liverpool, Branch no 5 est. 1913’, ‘Wigan RMT’ and, most movingly for me as a girl […]
The Biden regime’s robotic procession to Beijing proceeds apace. Following Antony Blinken’s fruitless visit in mid–June, we have paid Janet Yellen’s airfare for another fruitless visit, and following Yellen it was the same for John Kerry. This week it is Gina Raimondo’s turn. The secretary of state, the Treasury secretary, the chief climate envoy, and the commerce secretary: What is […]
‘In my opinion there is a connection between the timing of the Prigozhin drama and what is happening in Syria. The whole “mutiny” kicked off immediately after the Syrian Arab Army (Republican guard divisions) had mobilised to the north of Syria threatening terrorist positions in the north-west (Idlib), north (US and Turkey) and even stretching to the north-east (Kurds and […]
The late writer, broadcaster and wit Clive James formulated what he called the ‘Barry Manilow Law’: ‘Everyone you know thinks Barry Manilow is absolutely terrible. But everyone you don’t know thinks he’s great.’ (James, cited Martin Amis, ‘Inside Story,’ Vintage, 2020, e-book, p.74) A Media Lens version of this might read: ‘Everyone you know thinks BBC News is absolutely terrible. […]
President Richard Nixon: ‘Just because someone wants to become a martyr does not mean that we can allow this kind of large-scale theft or else it will happen in all spheres of government. We have to keep an eye on the main target. The main target is Ellsberg. We have to catch this son of a bitch.‘ Here at BSNews […]

Just before midnight on Sunday 28th May the familiar sound of incoming missiles and Syrian Air Defence engagement woke me up. The first attack was seemingly thwarted but then a second wave resulted in a large explosion to the south-west of Damascus where any number of air-defence bases are located. The Syrian Arab News Agency published the Ministry of Defence statement: The […]
America and Russia have two nearly opposite narratives on Ukraine, which is more an indictment of the U.S. news media which feigns objectivity but disseminates what amounts to propaganda. These divergent narratives are driving the world toward a possible nuclear crisis, writes Robert Parry.
US and Israeli intelligence operation coincides with Syrian threats against the United States and Russian military coordination with SAA. On January 20, 2022, the militants of the Islamic State (ISIS) launched a violent attack on Ghweran prison in Al-Hasakah, northeast Syria. This is the largest gathering of ISIS in the world and controlled by the Kurdish separatists, the Syrian Democratic […]
n its prolonged freezing of Venezuelan assets, the UK continues to withhold 31 tons of its gold stored at the Bank of England, with a new Supreme Court ruling supporting the seizure. The recent decision, CNN reported, “ruled that recognition of heads of state and government was solely the responsibility of the British government, which had recognized [opposition leader Juan] Guaidó as […]
On January 10, American and Russian officials will meet to discuss Putin’s proposal on mutual security guarantees. Western media and political analysts have cast Putin’s demands that NATO not expand further east to Ukraine and that NATO not establish military bases in former Soviet states nor use them to carry out military activity as bold and impossible. Here are six […]
The full video of this heartbreaking plea could not be uploaded to my Youtube channel due to my having too many strikes against me for ‘breaching community standards’. In other words, for showing the truth the corporate media is suppressing. A technical hitch is also preventing me from uploading to the BSNews Youtube channel. The full video can be viewed […]
BSNews co-editor Alison Banville attended the march which was the latest organised by music artist Remeece. (See his song Don’t Tek di Vaccine below) and because his outreach at schools is not allowed on Youtube watch at Bitchute here.
Note: Youtube, in a blatant act of censorship, removed the full interview from my channel. I will try again but have linked to the video on Telegram below. Below are my two emails to BBC ‘journalist’ (I refuse to use that title here without inverted commas) Lebo Diseko after her interview with Michael Chaves, the man who has become a […]
Australia is now living under complete tyranny. And that word is entirely factual, as John Pilger warns below. Yet despite the truly shocking police brutality, including shooting protesters with rubber bullets and firing tear gas, violently arresting people sitting on park benches or in their own homes, the Australian people are rising up to take back their lost freedoms. A […]
It’s a shame our own corporate media has not displayed the same integrity as Bild newspaper. UK ‘journalists’ ‘ inevitable apologies will come far too late. The damage will have been done. What we have now are mass protests in Germany, UK, France, Ireland, Australia – where martial law is in operation – and other countries, and this will, sooner, […]
The Brzezinski Interview with Le Nouvel Observateur (1998) Question: The former director of the CIA, Robert Gates, stated in his memoirs that the American intelligence services began to aid the Mujahiddin in Afghanistan six months before the Soviet intervention. In this period, you were the national security advisor to President Carter. You therefore played a key role in this affair. Is this […]
Following the criminal incarceration of former UK Ambassador to Uzbekistan, Craig Murray, I asked another former British diplomat and UK Ambassador to Syria from 2003-06, Peter Ford, to comment on the shutting down of voices raised against injustice in the UK and Scotland. Ford has also been a thorn in the side of the imperialist class regarding the ten year […]
I’m Alison Banville, co-editor of BSNews. Below are my emails to Uber’s press office. I’d had a driver arrive, demand proof of my mask exemption, then drive off when I told him he’d breached the law by asking me. Another driver argued about it when I was in the car, absolutely insisting that ‘it’s Uber policy’ – I’m constantly amazed […]
