CENSORSHIP BY THE NEW STATESMAN - what an ostensibly quality Mainstream UK weekly does not want you to know

The New Statesman is leading UK weekly that has a moderately progressive stance. Indeed I have been reading the New Statesman for over 50 years. It provides a welcome alternative to the propaganda of the Establishment- and Neocon Amercian and Zionist (NAZI)-subverted Mainstream media of the Anglo Murdochracies and Lobbyocracies in which Big Money buys public perception of reality, politicians, parties, policies and votes.

However the New Statesman is also susceptible to such anti-truth and anti-democracy influences. Thus the New Statesman permits its website to publish the most horrendous, false defamation of anti-racist Jews (for horrible examples see the Comment Thread on the article "The NS Interview: Norman Finkelstein": http://www.newstatesman.com/middle-east/2011/07/israel-interview-holocaust ) while on the other hand censoring articulate, informed, credentialed, anti-racist Jewish and anti-racist non-Jewish opinion critical of the genocidal crimes of the Zionist-beholden US Alliance and of racist Zionist-run Apartheid Israel, presumably as containing things it does not want its readers to read, know about or think about.

Of course the New Statesman is not alone in such Neocon American- and Zionsit-connected censorship which is entrenched in Western mainstream media e.g. by the ABC (Australia’s equivalent of the BBC), by The Age (arguably Australia’s most progressive Mainstream newspaper) and by the Australian taxpayer-funded, universities- and CSIRO-backed and academic-based web magazine The Conversation ( see “Censorship by The Conversation”: https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammediacensorship/censorship-by ; “Censorship by The Age”: https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammediacensorship/censorship-by-the-age ; “Censorship by ABC Late Night Live”: https://sites.google.com/site/censorshipbyabclatenightlive/ ; “ABC Censorship”: https://sites.google.com/site/abccensorship/ ; “Censorship by the ABC”: https://sites.google.com/site/censorshipbytheabc/ ; “Censorship by the BBC”: https://sites.google.com/site/censorshipbythebbc/ ; “Mainstream Media Lying”: https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammedialying/ ; and “Mainstream Media Censorship”: https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammediacensorship/ ).

I am a 5-decade career Australian scientist and an anti-racist. Humanitarian. Inspired by the example of Polish hero Jan Karski who tried to tell a disbelieving world about the Jewish Holocaust as it was happening, I have been attempting, under my own name (Dr Gideon Polya), to report the human cost of the Palestinian Genocide (2 million deaths from violence or violently-imposed deprivation since 1936) and the Zionist-backed US War on Muslims (12 million deaths from war or war-imposed deprivation since 1990). Mainstream media steadfastly refuse to report these horrendous realities and censor such reportage.

It must be noted that genocide ignoring or holocaust ignoring – as exhibited by Mainstream media in relation to the ongoing Palestinian Holocaust, Palestinian Genocide, Muslim Holocaust and Muslim Genocide – is far , far worse than utterly repugnant genocide denial or holocaust denial, because tat least denial permits the possibility of discussion.

The website records examples of egregious censorship of my anti-racist humanitarian opinions by the New Statesman that I first noticed occurring in its new format in mid-May 2012. This is provided in the interests of Humanity as an objective record of what a leading progressive UK magazine will not permit its readers to read. I have simply recorded all posts I have made to articles in the New Statesman since May 2012, highlighting those that have been censored out IN BOLD.

On 23 May 2012 the News Statesman published an article by Labour leader Ed Miliband entitled “Ed Miliband: the patriotism of the refugee”: http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/politics/2012/05/ed-miliband-patriotism-refugee?page=3 . I posted the following comments which survived for some days and then were COMPLETELY CENSORED, presumably for containing things it does not want its readers to read, know about or think about (for more details of this censorship by The Statesman see Newsvine: http://gpolya.newsvine.com/_news/2012/05/24/11869550-new-statesman-jewish-british-ed-miliband-the-patriotism-of-a-refugee ) :

“For anti-racist Jews and indeed all anti-racist humanitarians the core moral messages from the Jewish Holocaust (5-6 million dead, 1 in 6 dying from deprivation) and from the more general WW2 European Holocaust (30 million Slav, Jewish and Gypsy dead) are “zero tolerance for racism”, “bear witness”, “zero tolerance for lying” and “never again to anyone”, anyone including the Indigenous Palestinian victims of the racist Zionist Palestinian Genocide (see "Palestinian Genocide": https://sites.google.com/site/palestiniangenocide/ ) - 2 million dead since 1936, 0.1 million from violence, 1,9 million from war-, expulsion- and occupation-derived deprivation; 7 million refugees; 4.1 million Occupied Palestinians deprived of ALL the human rights listed by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights ; 6 million Palestinians forbidden to even live in the homeland continuously inhabited by their forbears to the very dawn of agrarian civilization; 800,000 Palestinians children confined without charge or trial to what the Catholic Church has described as Israel's Gaza Concentration Camp for the asserted "crime" of being Indigenous Palestinians living in a tiny, remorselessly Zionist-bombed patch of Palestine .

Ed Miliband's parents are anti-racist Jews who believe in justice for the 12 million Indigenous Palestinians of whom only the adults of the 1.6 million Palestinian Israelis (i.e. about 6.7%) can vote for the government ruling all of Palestine plus an ethnically cleansed slab of Syria. Ed Milliband as an elected politician in an ostensible democracy either believes in one man one vote NOW for everyone (including Palestinians) or he doesn't - if he doesn't he should be kicked out at the first opportunity by the Labor Party and the voters of Doncaster North.

Ed Miliband merely trots out the mantra "I support a two-state solution because I long for the peace that both Palestinians and Israelis need so badly" - yet if he had offered the same opinion about Apartheid Israel-supported Apartheid South Africa "I support a two-state solution involving 90% of the country for the Whites and 10% for the majority Non-Europeans in uneconomic Bantustans" his political career would have been finished.

Disraeli (a convert to "God is an Englishman" Anglicanism) was a mass murderer complicit in the Irish Famine (1 million starved to death, 1-2 million forced into exile), the butchery of 10 million Indians in the decade after the 1857 Indian Rebellion, and genocidal atrocities in all parts of the British Empire, not least in India where 500 million Indians died avoidably from British imposed deprivation under Queen Victoria alone (1837-1901) (read my books "Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950": http://globalbodycount.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/body-count-global-avoidable-mortality_05.html and "Jane Austen and the Black Hole of British History": http://janeaustenand.blogspot.com.au/ now available for free perusal on the Web ).

From an extremely charitable anti-racist Jewish perspective Ed Miliband is at the very least "confused" and should seek moral guidance from a large body of outstanding anti-racist Jews from Arendt to Zinn (Google "Jews Against Racist Zionism": https://sites.google.com/site/jewsagainstracistzionism/ ). As a refugee from both the anti-racist and anti-Zionist Orthodox Jewish tradition and from the anti-racist, anti-Zionist secular Jewish tradition, Ed Miliband should also seek moral guidance from a large body of outstanding anti-racist non-Jews including the likes of Nobel Laureates Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, Jimmy Carter, Máiread Maguire and José Saramago who have unequivocally condemned the ongoing Palestinian Genocide by Apartheid Israel (Google "Non-Jews Against Racist Zionism": https://sites.google.com/site/nonjewsagainstracistzionism/ ).”

On 16 May 2012 the News Statesman published an article by John Pilger entitled “Never forget that Bradley Manning, not gay marriage, is the issue”: http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/politics/2012/05/never-forget-bradley-manning-and-not-gay-marriage-issue?page=1 . The New Statesman COMPLETELY CENSORED my following comment (for further details of the censorship see Newsvine: http://gpolya.newsvine.com/_news/2012/05/17/11742771-never-forget-that-bradley-manning-and-not-gay-marriage-is-the-issue ):

“Excellent article by John Pilger. Of course all decent people support the right of gay people to same sex marriage but Obama's support was forced by Biden's and contrasts horribly with Obama's failure to support numerous other even more fundamental rights:

1. the right to life of children in the overseas American Empire, 1,000 of whom die avoidably every day (see "Hey , hey, USA, how many kids did you kill today? Answer: 1,000": http://bellaciao.org/en/spip.php?article18750 );

2. the right to life of the 12 million Muslims who have died violently or from war-imposed deprivation in the post-1990 Neocon American and Zionist (NAZI)-beholden -backed US War on Muslims in Muslim countries subject to war criminal US or US-backed violence , from west to east, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan (for the shocking, documented details see "Muslim Holocaust, Muslim Genocide": https://sites.google.com/site/muslimholocaustmuslimgenocide/ ).

3. the right to life of the American 99%, 1 million of whom die preventably each year due to obscene fiscal priority of successive Neocon American and Zionist (NAZI)-beholden US Governments of killing Muslims abroad ($5 trillion alone for the Iraq and Afghan Wars) rather than keeping Americans alive at home (see "One Million Americans Die Preventably Annually In USA", Countercurrents: http://www.countercurrents.org/polya180212.htm ); and

4. the right to free speech and the right and indeed the duty of American heroes such as Bradley Manning and Dr Daniel Ellsberg to bring the truth about US war crimes to the American public.

Downunder in Neocon American and Zionist (NAZI)-beholden lackey Australia free speech is highly constrained and it appears that laws have been recently changed under a neocon Laboral Government and a neocon Liberal Opposition to make it easier for Australian hero Julian Assange to be shipped off to torture and indefinite imprisonment in the US if he returns home.

Censorship is entrenched in John Pilger's homeland, Apartheid Australia, where the taxpayer-funded ABC (Australia's equivalent of the UK BBC) and the taxpayer-funded, Australian universities-backed and academic-based web magazine The Conversation egregiously censor and block humanitarian opinion, notably humanitarian anti-racist Jewish opinion (see “Censorship by The Conversation”: https://sites.google.com/site/mainstreammediacensorship/censorship-by and “ABC Censorship”: https://sites.google.com/site/abccensorship/ ).

Thus just the other day the ABC's ostensibly "progressive" radio program Late Night Live (LNL) had a program about Obama's shift on same sex marriage. My following comment was submitted to the LNL website but was blocked by the evidently SELF-CENSORED ABC: "Well that's just dandy that Obama has finally been forced to find the courage to support same-sex marriage. When will Neocon American and Zionist (NAZI)-beholden Obama find the courage to insist on ANY human rights for Occupied Palestinians?" (see “Censorship by ABC Late Night Live”: https://sites.google.com/site/censorshipbyabclatenightlive/ ).”

However the New Statesman did publish my subsequent SELF-CENSDORED comment:

“The NS totally censored out my carefully researched and documented post on this article while publishing anonymous posts that grossly defame me. I have re-posted an edited version of my censored post below with my SELF-CENSORED exclusions marked as such.
