Title	Type	Subject(s)	Publication date	Author(s)	Description
Document:A dissenting opinion on Nelson Mandela	article	Nelson Mandela	6 December 2013	Jonathan Cook
Document:Abuses show Assange case was never about law	blog post	United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention Emma Arbuthnot Julian Assange/Imprisonment	27 May 2019	Jonathan Cook	Craig Murray says: "As a summary of the truly breathtaking series of legal abuses by states against Julian Assange, that the corporate and state media has been deliberately distorting and hiding for a decade, this excellent account by Jonathan Cook cannot be bettered."
Document:Antisemitism threats will keep destroying Labour	blog post	"Antisemitism" Board of Deputies of British Jews Jeremy Corbyn Brexit Owen Jones Jewish Labour Movement Jewish Voice for Labour 2020 Labour Party leadership contest	12 February 2020	Jonathan Cook	If we are only allowed to gently chide Israel in ways that cannot meaningfully advance Palestinian rights, if we are prevented from discussing the strategies of staunchly pro-Israel lobbyists to silence Israel’s critics, if we are denied the right to push for an international boycott of Israel of the kind that helped blacks in South Africa end their own oppression, then nothing is going to change for the Palestinians.
Document:Craig Murray’s jailing is the latest move in a battle to snuff out independent journalism	blog post	Craig Murray Wikileaks Julian Assange Vanessa Baraitser Lady Leeona Dorrian National Union of Journalists Ed Vulliamy Jigsaw Identification	30 July 2021	Jonathan Cook	Assange and Murray are not only telling us troubling truths we are not supposed to hear. The fact that they are being denied solidarity by those who are their colleagues, those who may be next in the firing line, tells us everything we need to know about the so-called mainstream media: that the role of corporate journalists is to serve establishment interests, not challenge them.
Document:George Monbiot’s excuses for not speaking out loudly in defence of Assange simply won’t wash	blog post	The Guardian Neoliberalism George Monbiot David Leigh Julian Assange/Imprisonment	6 October 2020	Jonathan Cook	Faced with a barrage of criticism from some of his followers, George Monbiot, The Guardian’s supposedly fearless, leftwing columnist, offered up two extraordinarily feeble excuses this week for failing to provide more than cursory support for Julian Assange over the past month, as the Wikileaks founder has endured extradition hearings in a London courtroom.
Document:Labour's next leader has already betrayed the left	blog post	Board of Deputies of British Jews Labour Friends of Israel Jeremy Corbyn Keir Starmer Jewish Labour Movement Rebecca Long-Bailey 2020 Labour Party leadership contest Lisa Nandy	21 February 2020	Jonathan Cook	The next Leader of the Labour Party is already a prisoner to the "institutional antisemitism" narrative. That means their hands are chained not only to support for Israel, but to the reactionary politics in which Israel as a Jewish state makes sense – a worldview that embraces its style of ethnic, chauvinist, militaristic, segregationist politics.
Document:MI6, Theresa May and the Manchester attack	Article	MI6 Theresa May Amber Rudd Cressida Dick 2017 Manchester bombing Salman Abedi Libyan Islamic Fighting Group Saleh Ibrahim Mabrouk Hashem Abedi Ramadan al-Abedi Ismail Abedi	30 May 2017	Jonathan Cook	And so the story of MI6 and Theresa May, their sponsorship of Islamic jihadism, and the likely “blowback” the UK just experienced in Manchester is a sleeping dog no one seems willing to disturb.
Document:More Guardian ‘brainwashing’ on Putin	commentary	Corporate media 2014 Ukraine coup	24 March 2014	Jonathan Cook	A master-class in how the celebrated 'Free-Press' of the Western commercially controlled media is harnessed to the narrative requirements of the Establishments of which they are a part, turning them into little more than propaganda organs where major foreign policy issues are concerned.
Document:No fair hearing for Assange at the Guardian	article	Wikileaks Julian Assange Corporate media The Guardian United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention	5 February 2016	Jonathan Cook	Demonstrates the Establishment-friendly double standards of the UK's flagship 'Left-wing' newspaper - The Guardian - through analysis of its coverage of a UN decision on the political asylum of Julian Assange
Document:The Dangerous Cult of The Guardian	article	"Antisemitism" The Guardian	28 September 2011	Jonathan Cook	Criticism of The Guardian's policy on censorship of topics including "anti-semitism" and Wikileaks
Document:The EHRC’s report into Labour antisemitism is the real ‘political interference’	blog post	Board of Deputies of British Jews Boris Johnson Jonathan Freedland Jeremy Corbyn Joan Ryan Ken Livingstone Keir Starmer Jewish Labour Movement Campaign Against Antisemitism Equality and Human Rights Commission Ephraim Mirvis Pam Bromley	7 November 2020	Jonathan Cook	It is instructive to compare the certainty with which the EHRC treats Councillor Pam Bromley’s ambiguous remarks as irrefutable proof of antisemitism in Labour with its complete disregard for unmistakably antisemitic comments from Boris Johnson, the man actually running the country. That lack of concern is shared, of course, by the establishment media and Jewish leadership organisations.
Document:The deeper truths journalists are blind to	article	Corporate media	21 February 2016	Jonathan Cook	Corporate media is constitutionally incapable of honest objective reporting on matters affecting the vital interests of Establishment power
Document:The plot to keep Corbyn out of power	blog post	Jeremy Hunt Boris Johnson Jeremy Corbyn Mike Pompeo Chris Williamson Equality and Human Rights Commission Russell Brand	3 July 2019	Jonathan Cook	The weaponisation of anti-semitism against Corbyn has become so normal that, even while I was writing this post, a new nadir was reached. Jeremy Hunt, the foreign secretary who hopes to defeat Boris Johnson in the upcoming Tory leadership race, as good as accused Corbyn of being a new Hitler, a man who as prime minister might allow Jews to be exterminated, just as occurred in the Nazi death camps.
Document:Was there a Wuhan lab leak?	blog post	Biological weapon/Research COVID-19 Wuhan Institute of Virology WHO Anthony Fauci Peter Daszak EcoHealth Alliance Nicholas Wade	1 June 2021	Jonathan Cook	No meaningful lessons will be learnt about what really happened in Wuhan. Maintaining the illusion of truth will continue to take precedence over uncovering the truth. And for that reason we are doomed to keep making the same screw-ups. As the next pandemic will doubtless attest.
