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: Anthony Moore (letter, 26 March) demands of Mr Netanyahu that he not "play his domestic politics to the detriment of our worldwide interests." Why? Has not the world (with the exception perhaps of the United States) played its domestic oil-related interests to the detriment of Israel for the last 50 years?

Mr Netanyahu was elected to safeguard the interests of Israel and the Israeli people. Looking back in history I cannot see any reason why he should be obliged to adapt Israel policy to the interests of the international community generally and Britain in particular.
