NEW DOCUMENTARY COMING SOON Kashmir - Palestine in the Making We filmed this story before the European Union sanctioned me for my journalism on Palestine. Parts of it were shot in secret in Occupied Kashmir, where open reporting isn't really an option and people take risks just by speaking. What we found there felt familiar. Checkpoints. Curfews. Settlement policies. A population treated as a security problem on its own land. A government in New Delhi that openly points to Israel as its model.

Germany’s march to fascism is totally normalised on polite breakfast TV. The extremist AfD is “mainstream”; the actual mainstream left is “extremist.” Capitalism in crisis would prefer the far-right in power than concede even the prospect of the mildest social-democratic reform

"The victims were beheaded with swords. They were mutilated, hacked and slaughtered." Bambang Mulyono, survivor of the 1965 genocide in Indonesia. Early one morning his uncles were taken. He crawled through a water tunnel into the Botanical Garden of Purwodadi, East Java, to find them. "There we saw blood, bodies, legs, heads. Many of them were beheaded bodies." Up to a million people were killed. West Germany knew, and sent weapons and money to the killers. Former Nazis represented Bonn in Jakarta.

Konya Turkey. 89:59 on the clock. The referee blows the final whistle, 1 second before full time, ending the match between Konyaspor and the Palestinian national team. Then a message appeared on the stadium's giant screen: "The match has been postponed until Palestine is free."

Today in 1965, Indonesia experienced one of its bloodiest chapters in history, when the Indonesian government, under the leadership of General Suharto, massacred up to three million people at the height of the Cold War. The people targeted not only included communists and their alleged sympathizers but extended to feminists and ethnic and religious minorities. What few know, however, is how West Germany and the US supported the Indonesian army in carrying out the mass murders.

Big investigation coming out. Indonesia 1965 For months I have worked through more than 1,000 pages of declassified German archives on what many call the genocide against communists in Indonesia. The role of the US and Britain is well known. But another country financed and armed this massacre: Germany. Germany still denies it. Its own archives show it knew everything, even the army's test killings of communists in January 1965, nine months before the massacre began. Today Berlin sends weapons to Israel and sees no genocide in Gaza. 60 years ago it sent weapons to Indonesia and saw none there either. Same state. Same lie. On 30 September I will publish the full investigation, with hundreds of declassified documents and testimonies from victims and perpetrators, on www.hussedogru.com. The same day, my 2021 documentary is released in a remastered version on YouTube: youtube.com/@hussedogru Subscribe to my channel. More documentaries will follow soon. Stay tuned.

Sleeping at the UN? This is Jaja Wachuku, Nigeria’s first foreign minister post-independence. He pretended to fall asleep during a UN meeting as a form of protest He was denied the opportunity to respond to a racist remark from another representative in 1960. The inequality and discrimination against the Global South at the UN has long been criticized by African leaders. It was the central theme of Muammar Gaddafi’s famous 2008 speech where he ripped pages from the UN charter while at the podium.

Today in 1980 Iraq attacked Iran. 1 November 1983: a State Department memo reports that Iraq is using chemical weapons "almost daily" against Iran, with the capability supplied "primarily from Western firms."

December 1983: Rumsfeld flies to Baghdad and shakes Saddam's hand. Around one million Iranians were exposed to poison gas. Halabja was gassed. The US still handed Saddam satellite intelligence.

Happy Birthday to the Brazilian Marxist educator and philosopher Paulo Freire! He is known for Pedagogy of the Oppressed (1970), which theorized how oppressed people could be empowered by revolutionary education. Aftr the US-backed military coup of 1 April 1964 Freire was arrested, interrogated and jailed for 70 days. The military called him an "international subversive" and "a traitor to Christ and the Brazilian people", while a judge accused him of plotting to turn Brazil into a communist state. He was forced into exile for 16 years. Freire argued that education could be a tool for social change. Despite repression and censorship from right-wing forces in Brazil and worldwide, his work continues to inspire educators and activists in the struggle for social justice.

Today, we remember Pavlos Fyssas, the Greek anti-fascist rapper killed by members of the fascist Golden Dawn party on September 18, 2013. He was stabbed twice in the heart at a cafe in Keratsini while police stood by and watched. His murder sparked massive protests and a historic trial. In October 2020, 68 Golden Dawn defendants were convicted of running a criminal organization. It was the largest Nazi trial since Nuremberg. Twenty thousand people gathered outside the courthouse to hear the verdict. Last week, Ilias Kassidiaris, a leading Golden Dawn figure convicted of directing the fascist organization, was released from prison after serving his 13-year sentence. Within hours, he announced plans to establish a new far-right party. The lesson is clear. No court verdict will eliminate fascism if the material conditions that generate it remain unaddressed. The struggle continues.

Today we remember Víctor Jara, renowned Chilean musician and member of the Chilean Communist Party, tortured and executed by the US-backed Pinochet dictatorship on this day in 1973. His torturers crushed his hands and mocked him, forcing him to sing and play the guitar. To this day, Jara's music inspires people throughout Latin America and beyond to fight for the right to live in peace. Watch also: Chile 1973: Reform or Revolution? The workers saw the coup coming.

Did you know that the CIA once orchestrated the execution of today’s DR Congo’s first Prime Minister by a firing squad? On this day in 1961, Patrice Lumumba, the first democratically elected leader of the Congo, was executed by a firing squad following assassination plots concocted by the US and Belgian governments. Lumumba’s anti-imperialism and vision of a united Congo made him an adversary of both Belgium and US imperialism. Although the CIA ordered his assassination, they weren’t able to carry it out themselves. Instead, Washington and Brussels secretly funneled cash and aid to rival politicians who organized a coup and arrested Lumumba. He was then beaten, tortured, and killed.

Today, 9/11, the world remembers one tragedy. Over 3,000 killed and disappeared. What most people don`t talk about is that it happened twice, on the same date, decades apart. This is the other 9/11. Chile 1973: Reform or Revolution? 53 years ago the US-backed coup crushed Allende's Peaceful Road to Socialism. 40,000 jailed and tortured. 3,200 killed or disappeared. 11.09.2026 - 15:00 CEST on YOUTUBE

DOCUMENTARY Chile 1973: Reform or Revolution? September 11 marks the 53rd anniversary of the US-backed coup against elected socialist President Salvador Allende in Chile. The junta executed and tortured Allende supporters in football stadiums or forced them into exile. Workers and militants were demanding the government arm itself against the right-wing counter-revolution. Allende and the Popular Unity chose not to. It never armed the working class against the reactionary bourgeoisie. Allende´s ‘Peaceful Road to Socialism’ was ultimately crushed by the state institutions and military Chileans were told they should trust. More than 40,000 were jailed and tortured, including 3,200 killed and disappeared. This documentary looks at why Allende's peaceful road to socialism failed. We produced this documentary in 2023 for the 50th anniversary. I’m republishing it today because of its relevance. Watch tomorrow 11.09.2026 - 15:00 CET on Youtube
