Today marks 78 years since the Nakba, the brutal terror campaign waged by Zionist forces against Palestinians to found the state of Israel. British imperialism – having subjected the region to decades of domination, plunder, and division – was central to this catastrophe.
The racist demagogue and rabid Zionist Tommy Robinson is marching in London this Saturday, deliberately provoking the Palestine demo on the same day. Fiona Lali explains why you should join the Communist bloc to oppose the racists and war criminals.
As we enter week five of the US-Israeli war on Iran, things are not going as planned for Donald Trump. The US are now stuck and face a position where there are no good options. This enormous blunder will have widespread ramifications long after the war ends.
As Western imperialism pummels Iran, looking for regime change while promising ‘freedom’, Ryszard Kapuściński’s ‘Shah of Shahs’ – first published in 1982 – provides a valuable insight on the rottenness of the imperialist-backed Pahlavi dynasty, leading to its overthrow.
We are in the second week of the US-Israeli war on Iran, but things are not going as planned. Trump’s reckless actions are spiralling out of control and could become the undoing of his Presidency. Communists are clear: Hands off Iran! Down with US-Israel imperialism!
Starmer’s spineless, bootlicking, hypocritical response to the latest US-Israeli attack on Iran demonstrates the tightrope he walks in British and world politics. We say: Hands off Iran! No to imperialist war! Starmer out! Down with their rotten system!
The United States and Israel have launched war on Iran which threatens to spiral out of control. The blame for this is entirely upon American imperialism and its allies. Communists are clear: Hands Off Iran – Down with western imperialism.
Ahead of the May Holyrood elections, the ruling Scottish National Party is trying to make overtures to the Palestine movement. But for all the gestures of solidarity, the SNP will not be taking any action against the war machine or the capitalists complicit in genocide.
In yet another setback for Starmer’s beleaguered government, the High Court has ruled that Labour’s proscription of Palestine Action is “disproportionate” and “unlawful”. This is a victory for the Palestine movement, and exposes the crisis of the ruling regime.
In yet another egregious attack on the Palestine movement and free speech, Met Police officers have arrested a leading RCP student activist at a pro-Palestine demonstration at UCL. Join our protest at 7pm at Charing Cross Police Station.
A massacre of Rojava and the Kurds is being prepared in Syria. US imperialism once used the Kurdish SDF (Syrian Defence Forces) as a cynical pawn. Now, Donald Trump is abandoning them to their fate. Imperialism and class collaborationism is again proving to be the gravedigger of the Kurdish cause.
Eight political prisoners locked up for the ‘crime’ of fighting the genocide in Gaza have been starved and left to languish by the British state. If they die, the blame will lie with Starmer’s government and the system it upholds. Free the Filton 24! Lock up the real terrorists!
