Great episode. Truth tellers are in dangerous times. So scary.

This makes me very sad. I didn’t realize the extent to which western countries other than the United States were supporting this genocide, whether or not they are sending arms. I want to thank Mr. Medhurst. Why is it that the best among us must pay the highest price? May he get through this and thrive. Please let us know how we can support him.

Gosh, another Julian Assange nightmare, so Richard Medhurst is right to talk, as we ALL need to start simply screaming at the top of our voices.

This is a total nightmare. It is every bit as ugly as what Hitler’s Germany was doing during WWII.

Amazing informative interview about the behavior of Labor Party disregarding any respect for freedom of expression and opinion. Pure fabrication of case and intimidation. Brave to both for airing and voicing the alarm. Shame on UK pro labor parity members to supporting such a criminal act.

Deigo, Thomas, Sophia and Max, great job as ALWAYS. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

You are all extremely talented at switching cameras from Chris and his guests to videos and showing pictures of the current subject while the interview is live.

I have a favor to ask.

Pretty please. I have no money so again all I can offer is another pretty please.

Can you call Glenn Greenwalds’ staff for System Update and show them how a Power Point presentation is used during Glenn’s monologues or interviews while the show is live?

Maybe you can save on your taxes for a work related vacation in Brazil.

Journalists and a free press are the canaries in the proverbial coal mine. Sadly, we are living the lie propagated by the propaganda machine that we have free speech, a free press, equality, and democracy. We need voices like Mr. Medhurst's and yours, Mr. Hedges. What a mess.

I believe that you misspelled "United States". Outside of America's british poodle, nobody else in the West takes slavishness towards Israel as an article of faith, and nobody cares what the british think pr want.

Let me get this straight. If he is critical of Israel and the very obvious genocide they are implementing on the people of Gaza, while they lie and define it as going after Hamas who still retain Israeli hostages, Britain can define him as supporting a terrorist group, or is it that he criticized the terrorist act.
