TRUTHDIG’S JOURNALISM REMAINS CLEARBBC:
A coalition of organisations has warned Tony Blair any military action against Iran would be disastrous.
Leading charities, faith groups and unions are urging the prime minister to put pressure on the US to enter talks with Tehran.
In a report, they say Britain should be doing all it can to avoid the “unthinkable” consequences of war.
The storytellers of chaos tried to manipulate the political and media narrative in 2025, but independent journalism exposed what they tried to hide. When you read Truthdig, you see through the illusion.
