As the genocide enters it’s second year, the actual stories of the less visible (but equally, if not more brutal) components of the genocide are uncovered. A year ago, we were informed that we were just sending arms to Israel. Now, as the U.S. complicity comes into sharp focus, the scope is staggering. The competing narratives make a mockery of anything a State Dept. spokesperson says. To paraphrase Upton Sinclair: “It is difficult to get someone to tell the truth when their salary depends on them never doing so.”

With all the talk about misinformation and that censorship is the only way to stop it. It is clear that the most substantial misinformation comes from podiums in the White House, State Department, Congress, and on and on. It is one thing to green-light the atrocities carried out by Israel, it is quite another to help construct and execute them.

Thank God, that Drop Site News has unleashed the power of actual investigative journalism. Unfortunately, instead of being celebrated for their invaluable service; being persecuted for it, is likely in both their present and future.

I agreed with your comment until the last sentence. Honest and accurate journalism cannot be persecuted. It can be ridiculed, devalued, sidelined or completely ignored. Carry on Drop Site with fearless reporting.

Wow. That’s heavy. Wasn’t aware of this hearing. Sounds like algorithmic censorship.
