Max Blumenthal

Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate discuss President Donald Trump's pledge to "take over" Gaza during a meeting with Israeli PM Netanyahu, the real history of USAID, Tulsi Gabbard's revealing confirmation hearing, and more.

The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal holds his second interview with Mohammed Al-Bukhaiti, a senior political officer and spokesman for Yemen's Ansar Allah (Houthi movement), asking him why his movement intervened in defense of Gaza despite devastating Israeli and US-UK attacks. Al-Bukhaiti explains why he believes Palestinian losses would have been worse without Ansar Allah's intervention, and discusses developments in Yemen's grueling civil war.

In a recent episode of Palestine Declassified, hosts Chris Williamson and David Miller were joined by The Grayzone editor Max Blumenthal to dissect the controversial role of the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH). The discussion centered on the CCDH’s efforts to suppress pro-Palestinian voices on social media, particularly under the leadership of Elon Musk. The episode shed light on the organization’s ties to Zionist interests and its broader agenda to silence dissent against Israeli policies.The first segment featured Latifa Abouchakra, who detailed The Grayzone’s investigative work exposing the CCDH as a dishonest entity masquerading as a watchdog. The report revealed how the CCDH, despite its claims of combating hate speech, systematically targets and erases content supportive of Palestinian rights, effectively aligning itself with the Zionist regime’s propaganda efforts.The second segment delved into the CCDH’s extensive network of connections, including its links to the British Labour Party, the Community Security Trust, the Pears Foundation, and the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) in the United States. These ties underscore the organization’s role as a tool for advancing pro-Israel narratives while undermining legitimate criticism of Israeli actions. The episode highlighted how these relationships enable the CCDH to wield significant influence over digital platforms, shaping public discourse in favor of Zionist interests.Overall, the program provides a critical examination of the CCDH’s activities, exposing its role in the broader campaign to delegitimize and suppress pro-Palestinian advocacy. By connecting the dots between the CCDH and its institutional backers, Palestine Declassified offered a compelling case for how digital censorship is weaponized to serve political agendas, particularly those aligned with the Zionist movement. This episode is a must-watch for anyone concerned about free speech and the ongoing struggle for Palestinian rights.Read The Grayzone’s reporting on leaked emails from the CCHD

On the Judging Freedom podcast, Max Blumenthal delves into the implications of Donald Trump’s recent rhetoric regarding Gaza, where he suggests forcibly relocating two million Palestinians to Egypt’s Sinai Desert and Jordan. This controversial plan, framed as a "peaceful" resolution to the Israel-Palestine conflict, threatens to destabilize the Middle East further and faces significant opposition from Arab leaders already strained by regional tensions.Blumenthal highlights the immense resistance that would likely arise from Egypt and Jordan, both of which are already hosting large Palestinian refugee populations. For Egypt, the idea of absorbing more Palestinians is seen as a direct assault on its sovereignty, with many in the Egyptian elite deeply hostile to the Palestinians. Meanwhile, Jordan, long used as a "warehouse" for Palestinian refugees, has also seen large-scale protests in response to similar proposals, signaling that the population is unwilling to accept this new wave of displacement.Despite these objections, Trump’s plan has been supported by hardline Israeli factions and billionaire donors tied to the Israel lobby, suggesting that the real motive behind the plan is to solidify Israeli control over Gaza and the wider region. Blumenthal emphasizes that this proposal is not just about territorial expansion but also about further cementing the power of a small ruling elite that has long been aligned with U.S. imperial interests.Blumenthal critiques both Trump and Biden administrations for their shared responsibility in the devastation of Gaza, calling attention to the broader system of U.S. foreign policy that perpetuates violence and destabilization in the region. This analysis underscores the need for an alternative approach—one rooted in justice and a real understanding of the Palestinian struggle for self-determination.

In this episode of Going Underground, Grayzone Editor-in-Chief Max Blumenthal dissects Donald Trump’s call for greater independent media access to White House press briefings and the broader implications of his media strategy. Blumenthal breaks down his viral confrontation with former Secretary of State Antony Blinken over the U.S. role in Israel’s assault on Gaza, as well as Trump’s move to cut USAID grants to Ukraine—leading to the swift collapse of Ukrainian media outlets reliant on Western funding.He also exposes the Ukrainian Myrotvorets kill list, detailing the threats he and other journalists have faced for reporting inconvenient truths about NATO’s proxy war. The conversation turns to the arrests of The Electronic Intifada’s Ali Abunimah in Switzerland and Grayzone journalist Jeremy Loffredo in Israel, underscoring the global crackdown on independent reporting.Blumenthal further unpacks the Biden administration’s political maneuvering, including an alleged pardon for Anthony Fauci to shield him from accountability over COVID policies, and how Trump’s potential return to the White House could see the most overtly pro-Israel administration in U.S. history. He analyzes Trump’s role in advancing Israel’s expansionist agenda, including his tacit approval of West Bank annexation and Netanyahu’s expectation that a second Trump presidency would back Israel in a regional war against Iran.Check out this no-holds-barred discussion of stories the establishment media won’t touch.For more info on Afshin Rattansi's Going Underground: linktree.com/goingundergroundtv
