Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Sir: Robert Fisk's selection of the killing of Abbas Moussawi as the trigger for the bombing by Hizbollah of the Israeli embassy in London and the Joint Israel Appeal offices in Finchley is insulting to Jews throughout the world who are now under attack by Muslim fundamentalists.

Hizbollah intervention in Lebanon, with Iranian inspiration and Syrian connivance, goes back 12 years. And while it is true that Hizbollah is 'prepared to inflict massive civilian casualties' by targeting civilians, Israeli policy has consistently targeted military installations and personnel. However, the terrorists often locate their positions behind a shield of civilians, some of whom, regrettably, are killed in the crossfire.

Yours faithfully,
