Joel Schalit runs The Battleground with a hands-on approach: "I never overstep my own self-imposed boundaries and that seems to work for them." The editorial process is personal, and Schalit’s team thrives on independence. #TheBattleground 👉 youtube.com/watch?v=lSa8_2…

"Too few analyses affirm that Le Pen had to bow to the law, which she clearly and massively broke, whereas Donald Trump did not. Progressives need to do more to promote and legitimise the rule of law." thebattleground.eu/2025/04/04/mar…

"More than an entire month has passed without a drop of aid into Gaza. No food. No fuel. No medicine. No commercial supplies. As aid has dried up, the floodgates of horror have re-opened. #Gaza is a killing field – and civilians are in an endless death loop."

Hundreds of journalists have watched the Oscar-winning documentary No Other Land which shows exactly this in the years before October 2023. Now a photojournalist whose film work was just nominated for Cannes has been assassinated. It’s time media cover and call out this impunity.
