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: The assertion by Hamas that they will end their bombing campaign if the Israelis stop tracking their members should be ridiculed and ignored. It is clear to all involved that Hamas are a group of fanatics committed to wrecking the peace process. They will not stop their unjustified and unprovoked violence until the peace process is halted and thus the only viable option open to Yasser Arafat and Shimon Peres is to unite against Hamas in order to stamp out the threat which they pose.
