Palestinian trade unionists have called for international solidarity of the working class to halt the Israeli war machine. Workers in the arms industry have the potential to strike a powerful blow against the Israeli state and imperialism.

In contrast to their hue and cry about ‘democracy’ and ‘self-determination’ in Ukraine, the western powers have given Israel the go-ahead to raze Gaza to the ground. Once again ‘international law’ and the ‘rules based order’ are exposed as a hypocritical cover for the iron heel of imperialism.

The escalating aggression of Israeli imperialism, with the imminent threat of invasion in Gaza, has provoked a massive outburst of anger in Britain. IMT comrades have been connecting with this mood, putting forward clear revolutionary slogans.
