OBITUARY – Saif al-Islam Gaddafi

Posted by: John Phoenix Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, son of the martyred president of Libya Colonel Muammar Gaddafi, was on 3 February 2026 himself assassinated at his home by four gunmen who had disabled the security cameras. Although he tried to fight them off, they succeeded in killing him. He was 53. On Friday 6 February many thousands of mourners gathered in the western Libyan town of Bani Walid for his funeral, mourning not only his death but the loss of the well-being that was enjoyed by all citizens of Libya during the presidency of his father, overthrown and murdered in 2011 by a minority of fundamentalist reactionaries organised by imperialism that supplied them with lethal armaments and backed them with bombing raids in order to destroy their country’s sovereignty and b...

Ten Years Ago: “Operation Libya” and the Battle for Oil: Redrawing the Map of Africa

Posted by: John Phoenix Part II Global Research, Author’s Note: The following article was published almost ten years ago on March 9, 2011, at the outset of the US-NATO “humanitarian” military intervention in Libya. Libya’s crude oil reserves in 2011 were twice those of the United States. In retrospect. the 2011 US-NATO led war on Libya was a multi-trillion dollar trophy for the United States. It was also, as outlined in my 2011 article a means to establishing US hegemony in North Africa, a region historically dominated by France and to lesser extent by Italy and Spain. The US-NATO intervention was also intent upon excluding China from the region and edging out China’s National Petroleum Corp (CNPC), which was a major player in Libya. Libya is the gate...

تطبيع ريم التونسية ليس غريباً

By: Adel Abdulhamid Samara دار اعتراض ورفض ونقاش حول الصحفية التونسية ريم بو قمره في تورطها تطبيعيا في الكيان الصهيوني. ولا تكمن الغرابة في سلوك فرد تربى في مناخ السقوط المتعدد، ولكن تكمن في موقف الرئيس التونسي الذي ثرثر ضد التطبيع بلغة اسميتها "أعرب ما تحته خط" بينما حقيقة لم يختلف موقفه عن موقف الغنوشي لا في التطبيع ولا في إرسال الإرهابيين إلى سوريا والإرهابيات لجهاد النكاح في سوريا ايضاً، فهو قد شارك في مؤتمر "أصدقاء سوريا" في باريس إلى جانب أربعين نظام عدو لسوريا الأسد. من جانبي لا أعتقد أنها تستحق كل ذلك الإهتمام علاوة على تضخيم الكيان لهكذا سقوط مما يؤكد أن الكيان على قناعة مستدامة بأنه لم ولن يكون مقبول شعبيا في الوطن العربي. لكنني اشير هنا إلى الوجه الآخر للتطبيع الوجه الذي تشتغل عليه أجهزة مخابرات الرأسمالية الغربية عموما وضمنها أجهزة الكيان وهو نقل التطبيع من قشرته ...

Stand with the countries of the Sahel!

Posted by: John Phoenix Real development for oppressed and developing countries can only be achieved once they have rid themselves of the imperialist and neocolonial forces that enslave them. Party leaflet Subscribe to our channel Repeated attempts have been made on the life of Burkinabe leader Captain Ibrahim Traoré. To understand why, one need only consider the great steps made in the direction of real sovereignty and independence in the three years since Traoré came to power. In that time, foreign troops have been ejected from the country and western multinationals have been deprived of their ability to loot resources that they consider theirs by right, and which are necessary for the imperialists to continue to dominate the world.

Trump White House Further Exposes Its Racism and Ignorance During Visit by Five West African Leaders

Posted By: John Phoenix Liberian President Joseph Boakai was asked about his English-speaking capability while his country was established by the United States in 1847 Five heads-of-state from West African countries were invited to the White House to meet with United States President Donald Trump. These leaders were Presidents Joseph Boakai of Liberia; Mohamed Ould Ghazouani of Mauritania; Bassirou Diomaye Faye of Senegal; Brice Clotaire Nguema of Gabon; and Umaro Cissoko Embalo of Guinea-Bissau. This invitation took place amid the massive round-up, detentions and deportations of people of color, including Africans, by the Trump administration as a cornerstone of their domestic policy. The arrests, detentions, tort...

Real and Fake Antidotes to Trump’s Latest Tariffs, Seen From South Africa

Posted by: John Phoenix Image by Paul Teysen. U.S. President Donald Trump apparently aims to reassert his power to cause a full-blown economic catastrophe, perhaps reminiscent of 1930s-scale Make America Great Depression Again. The self-harm to his own MAGA lower-middle-class social base – especially consumers of cheap imports – will soon become evident when price inflation rises. But since Trump hit South Africa hard on July 8 with a 30% general tariff (though there are exceptions such as platinum, gold and other minerals which are zero-rated), will we find any creative economic planners in Pretoria, and in the big Johannesburg corporates, now preparing for potentially fast-falling export markets? Not only do they face the rise from the current 10% global tari...

Egypt alarmed by Nazi influx into Sinai amid double standards accusations

People board a sailing boat as they leave Israel from the Herzliya marina, after the Israeli airspace was closed due to missile fire from Iran on 24 June 2025 (AFP) By MEE correspondent in Cairo Egypt has quietly stepped up security measures in South Sinai, as Israelis have started crossing into the province in increasing numbers early last week through the Taba border with Israel to flee the conflict with Iran. Thousands of foreign nationals, including diplomats and international staff, have crossed into Egypt through the border in recent days, aiming to fly out of Sharm el-Sheikh Airport to...

Thousands of ‘Israelis’ ‘flood’ into Sinai desert raising alert level in Egypt

Posted by: John Phoenix Egypt has faced criticism for cracking down on Gaza-bound activists carrying aid, while at the same time allowing Israelis to enter freely (Photo credit: AFP) Egyptian authorities have heightened security measures in the southern Sinai due to the large number of Israelis who have crossed into the province to flee Iran’s ballistic missile strikes, according to sources cited by Middle East Eye (MEE) on 24 June. Thousands of Israelis and foreign nationals, including diplomats, have entered Egypt through the Taba crossing with plans to fly out of Sharm el-Sheikh International Airport to various destinations around the world.

Stand with the countries of the Sahel!

Posted by: John Phoenix The imperialist forces are determined to overthrow the popular military government of Burkina Faso, using their puppet Alassane Outtara, president of the Ivory Coast. The same Ivory Coast that was instrumental in the assassination of socialist president Thomas Sankara in 1987. Since Captain Ibrahim Traore came to power in 2022, the country has embarked on the road to true independence and sovereignty: by creating the Alliance of Sahel States with Mali and Niger, by driving French and American military forces out of its territory, by successfully combating the terrorist forces unleashed on its territory by the West, by regaining control of its mineral resources, notably its gold, and by turning away from the neo-colonial economic agreements imposed by Fra...

It’s 2025, but Africans are still in chains. Why?

By Moussa Ibrahim, Executive Secretary of the African Legacy Foundation, Johannesburg © Getty Images / Harvepino The past few days have offered a brutal snapshot of Africa’s unresolved crisis. In Burkina Faso, militants from Jama’at Nusrat ul-Islam wa al-Muslimin (JNIM), affiliated with Al-Qaeda, overran the Diapaga military base in the east, seizing most of the city and exposing the precarious state of security in the Sahel. Meanwhile, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the M23 rebel armed group, which has been fighting the government since the beginning of the ...
