Netanyahu Plays Chicken
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 30 Sep 2024

21 Sep 2024 – Israel can assassinate, employ indiscriminate terrorism, bombard from the air, and it has done all these things against Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Iran. But Israel cannot destroy Hamas nor Hezbollah, cannot get back its hostages from Gaza and cannot make Northern Israel safe for settler colonialists.

We Are the Bad Guys
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 19 Aug 2024

12 Aug 2024 – When I was reprimanded and officially told that receipt of intelligence from torture in the “War on Terror” was approved by the Prime Minister, it became clear to me that there was a deliberate promoting of false intelligence narratives through torture to justify military policy in Afghanistan and Central Asia.

Shameless: Active Participants in Genocide
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 20 May 2024

13 May 2024 – For spurious and sinister reasons, the Western political and media classes are isolating themselves from public opinion and international law on the Gaza genocide in ways hard to believe. Here are a few examples among myriad.

A Shift Against Impunity for Genocide
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 8 Jan 2024

3 Jan 2024 – Officials who supplied, incited or cheered on Israel’s monstrous atrocities in Gaza face legal actions with South Africa’s reference to the International Court of Justice. In the UK, Sunak, Cleverly and Shapps could be in the Old Bailey dock for genocide.

Murder
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 18 Dec 2023

13 Dec 2023 – Why the Genocide Convention has not been activated at the ICJ? It is not that people are worried that a claim of genocide will not be successful, but that it will succeed. It follows that not only Benjamin Netanyahu but also “Genocide Joe” Biden and Rishi Sunak will be criminally liable for complicity.

Activating the Genocide Convention
Craig Murray | Consortium News - TRANSCEND Media Service, 27 Nov 2023

19 Nov 2023 – There is no room to doubt that Israel’s bombing of Palestinian civilians and depriving them of food, water and other necessities of life are grounds to invoke the 1948 Genocide Convention.

The Right of Self-Defence
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 13 Nov 2023

5 Nov 2023 – The only unique factor about Israel here is that it is the only country to have been found by the International Court of Justice specifically to have abused and exceeded the concept of right of self-defence, in its treatment of the Palestinians.

Assange: An Unholy Masquerade of Tyranny Disguised as Justice
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 19 Jun 2023

15 Jun 2023 – Hitler did not need to manufacture lawyers and judges. The majority of German lawyers participated actively in Nazi laws’ development and implementation. Julian Assange’s persecution has nothing to do with the law. It is a simple demonstration of the crushing power of the state.

Snowden and Teixeira: Ten Years of Disaster
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 24 Apr 2023

16 Apr 2023 – The behavior of The New York Times and Washington Post in the current case involving secret documents is truly shocking. In contrast to 10 years ago, they now see their mission as to serve the security state, not public knowledge.

The So Far Non-Existent Vulkan Leaks
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 3 Apr 2023

31 Mar 2023 – The Guardian, Washington Post and Der Spiegel have today published “bombshell” revelations about Russian cyber warfare based on leaked documents, but have produced only one single, rather innocuous leaked document between them (in the Washington Post), with zero links to any. Where are these documents and what do they actually say?

Why Would China Be an Enemy?
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 27 Mar 2023

21 Mar 2023 – To react to Beijing’s growing economic power by increasing Western military power is hopeless. It is harder to think of a more stupid example of lashing out in blind anger.

Sy Hersh & the Way We Live Now
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 20 Feb 2023

9 Feb 2023 – It is a clear indicator of the disappearance of freedom from our so-called Western democracies that Sy Hersh cannot get the monumental revelation of US destruction of the Nordstream pipelines on the front page of The Washington Post or The New York Times, but has to self-publish on the net.

FTX: The Joke of Democracy
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 21 Nov 2022

15 Nov 2022 – From its founding in 2017, the one-man company rose to a “partner organisation” of the WEF and second largest donor to Biden and the Democrats’ mid-term election. It has now gone completely bust, taking every penny of its depositors’ money with it.

How a Police State Starts
Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 12 Oct 2020

On Saturday [3 Oct] a small, socially distanced vigil of 18 people for Julian Assange at Piccadilly Circus was broken up by twice that number of police and one elderly man arrested and taken into custody. The little group of activists have been holding the vigil every week. I had just arrived to thank them and was astonished to see eight police vans and this utterly unnecessary police action. There could not be a clearer example of “Covid legislation” being used to crack down on unrelated, entirely peaceful political dissent.

In Court: The Annihilation of Julian Assange
Amb. Craig Murray – TRANSCEND Media Service, 4 Nov 2019

22 Oct 2019 – I was deeply shaken while witnessing yesterday’s events in Westminster Magistrates Court. The campaign of demonisation and dehumanisation against Julian, based on government and media lie after government and media lie, has led to a situation where he can be slowly killed in public sight, and arraigned on a charge of publishing the truth about government wrongdoing, while receiving no assistance from “liberal” society. Unless Julian is released shortly he will be destroyed. If the state can do this, then who is next?

Assange: The Missing Step
Amb. Craig Murray - TRANSCEND Media Service, 27 May 2019

20 May 2019 – In Sweden, prosecutors have applied to the Swedish courts to issue a warrant for Julian’s arrest. There is a tremendous back story to that simple statement. The European Arrest Warrant must be issued from one country to another by a judicial authority… There is an interesting parallel with the reaction to the work of Reformation scholars in translating the Bible into vernacular languages and giving the populace direct access to its contents, without the mediating filters of the priestly class. It is something worth bearing in mind in trying to understand the depth of the State’s hatred of Julian.

Craig Murray, Former British Ambassador to Uzbekistan – The Daily Mail, 22 Dec 2014

Diplomat Craig Murray Was Fired When He Warned Labour Government of UK Collusion with US Abuse – We don’t need an inquiry into British complicity in torture. We need a trial. And it should be Tony Blair and Jack Straw in the dock.

Israeli Murders, NATO and Afghanistan
Craig Murray – TRANSCEND Media Service, 7 Jun 2010

Therefore what is troubling the hearts and souls of non-Americans in NATO HQ is this fundamental question. Is NATO genuinely a mutual defence organisation, or is it just an instrument to carry out US foreign policy? With its unthinking defence of Israel and military occupation of Afghanistan, is US foreign policy really defending Europe, or is it making the World less safe by causing Islamic militancy?
