open with care.....

New Year’s Day always brings a degree of optimism.  It’s a fresh start. And the New Year can’t be as bad as the one just concluded, can it? 

2023 saw the war in Ukraine drag on even though it became clear after its expected failed offensive that Kiev cannot win the war, and after the Ukrainian side admitted it had a deal with Russia just after the war started that would have saved hundreds of thousands of soldiers’ lives. Ukraine would have lost less territory too had the U.S. not scotched the deal.  

And 2023 saw the start of a genocidal war by Israel against Gaza in a renewed push to complete Israel’s 1947 dream to control all of historic Palestine by driving even more Palestinians off their land.   

In 2023, Julian Assange spent his fourth year in London’s Belmarsh Prison awaiting a decision on whether he will be extradited to the United States. 

It was a tough year for Consortium News too.  In June, our late board member Sen. Mike Gravel was buried in Arlington National Cemetery. It was just four days after another former board member, the great whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg had died. And on Saturday we lost yet another member of our board, the magnificent journalist John Pilger. 

Some good news is that through the generous support of our readers and viewers Consortium Newswill push ahead into its 29th year as strong as ever.  Our Winter Fund Drive continues until Jan. 15, so if you haven’t yet donated, please consider doing so (deductible on your 2024 taxes).  

It will help ensure our continued coverage of Assange’s historic press freedom case and the continuing historic crises in Gaza and Ukraine.  Hopefully those wars will end, justice will be served for Assange and the world will try to come to its senses in 2024.
