Ukrainian Counteroffensive Runs Into Defensive Wall

By Scott Ritter – Sputnik Over the course of the past few days, Ukraine has thrown two of its best-trained, best-equipped mechanized brigades into offensive operations against entrenched Russian defenders in the Zaporozhye sector of the front lines. These two brigades had been hand-picked for this job, having been equipped with modern Western tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, supported by Western-supplied artillery, and using NATO-specific tactics shaped by NATO-provided intelligence and NATO operational planning. In short, these two brigades represented a top-level NATO-level capability, the epitome of the nexus between Ukraine and the Collective West in their ongoing war to destroy Russia. They failed. As the world comes to grips with the imagery of destroyed US-m...

Long live May Day

May Day is the day of annual celebration of the international working class movement. It originated in the United States where it was particularly associated with the struggle for the working day to be reduced to 8 hours. In the mid-19th century, the conditions in which the working class lived and worked in the United States, as in Europe, were harsh and for this reason: “At this time, socialism was a new and attractive idea to working people, many of whom were drawn to its ideology of working class control over the production and distribution of all goods and services. Workers had seen first-hand that Capitalism benefited only their bosses, trading workers’ lives for profit. Thousands of men, women and children were dying needlessly every year in the workplace, wit...

The fraud of Scottish nationalism

If the SNP is really a threat to British imperialism, why has Nicola Sturgeon been treated as such a saint by the corporate media? The resignation of Nicola Sturgeon as leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP) triggered a wave of heartfelt political obituaries from the ‘thought leaders’ of British liberalism. These people had looked to Sturgeon to be their champion, even if many of them are based in London and are opposed to Scottish independence. For the liberals in the British media, she was the ideal leader, one who did not challenge the priorities of British imperialism in any significant way, but who would wag her finger at Boris Johnson in a slightly more charismatic way than does bloodless Labour leader Keir Starmer. The other quality the media liberals loved wa...

The French working class fights on

Trash has piled up high on many of the streets of Paris, barricades still burn in the night across France as French workers carry on the fight to overthrow their government’s attack on their pensions. French President Emmanuel Macron’s government pushed a bill to increase the retirement age from 62 to 64 through parliament without a vote in what he may proclaim that he wanted to be seen as a sign of his authority and determination to rule but in reality, showed only that he expected to lose any vote on the issue. He has now stamped on the dragon’s tail and the ensuing flames of revolt may be impossible to put out while he remains in office. On many of the daily/nightly clashes, firefighters called out to douse the burning barricades, stand down and remove their h...

Caracas declaration: Latin America has a vital role to play in the world anti-imperialist struggle

NATO’s armies must be defeated on the battlefield and behind the lines. From the city of Caracas, birthplace of the great liberator Simón Bolívar, the father of Latin-American unity and forerunner of the modern anti-imperialist movement in Nuestra America, we are gathered today to continue the line of political struggle that was laid down by the international conference of the World Anti-imperialist Platform in Belgrade, Serbia, last December. At that time, revolutionary and social organisations with a clear anti-imperialist, antifascist and anti-colonial orientation came together to denounce the aggression of the United States and of its NATO military front, whose belligerence on every continent threatens the peoples of the world. It is clear for all to see that the global ...

China sets out new foreign policy approach: oppose US unilateralism

The CPC has officially acknowledged that the ‘agreement incapable’ USA is set on hegemony and confrontation. The relationship between US imperialism and People’s Republic of China (PRC) has been marked by contradictions and antagonisms even during the periods of relatively positive relations. In recent years, however, the antagonisms have increased dramatically. This has led the Chinese Foreign Ministry increasingly to criticise US government actions in public – and these criticisms have been mounting in frequency and severity as NATO’s provocation of the war in Ukraine and the USA’s ramping up of hybrid warfare actions against China have accelerated along with the deepening of the world economic crisis. Frank condemnation of US aggression and hypocrisy At a press conf...

Greatest triumph in our history!

An open letter to the President of the Russian Federation and Supreme Commander-in-Chief V.V.Putin from Gennady Zyuganov, Chairman of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation April 13, 2023 Esteemed Vladimir Vladimirovich, For all of us May 9 is a sacred date. Victory over German Nazism became a great milestone in the thousand-year history of Russia. It is an abiding pride and spiritual mainstay of our multi-national people. Today the significance of this date is multiplied many times over. Our Fatherland is living through hard times. Driven by greed and lust for dominance the conquistadors have decided to destroy everything Russian. They are consumed by a demon-possessed desire to take revenge and trample underfoot the legacy of our ancestors. They are planning t...

Nazi entity step up their efforts to ethnically cleanse the West Bank of Palestinians

Zionists step up their efforts to ethnically cleanse the West Bank of Palestinians In the last issue of LALKAR we reported on the first 36 Palestinians murdered by the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) and the Zionist ‘settler’ movement during January 2023. The situation across Palestine has become even more heated with the various Zionist soldiery and murderous settlers going into overdrive and carrying out non-stop killing and maiming sprees against anyone Palestinian or who may be regarded as pro-Palestinian. This continuing carnage by the Zionist occupiers hasn’t gone unanswered by the brave fighters of the resistance brigades that have sprung up among the hard-pressed Palestinian people as they hit back despite the cost to themselves, their friends and families. A...

Ukraine: Zelensky gets cold feet?

Mesmerised by the mirage of a ‘spring offensive’ which will somehow miraculously turn the tide of war in its favour, Kiev is meanwhile wasting an irreplaceable generation of young men in a series of pointless last-ditch stands like those unfolding around the cauldrons of Bakhmut and Avdiivkaz. It is unclear just who will be left to staff this grand offensive, in the spring or any other time. Asia Times recently reported on a private gathering of former top US soldiers, intelligence officials and scholars, at which some very gloomy estimates about Kiev’s battle readiness were aired (Spengler, Why Ukraine may embrace China’s peace plan, 20 March 2023). One expert averred that the entire army that NATO trained between 2014 and 2022 in preparation for a Russian attack is de...

On the 20th anniversary of imperialism’s predatory invasion of Iraq

The 20th of March this year marked the 20th anniversary of the start of Anglo-American imperialism’s war against Iraq. Although there was mass opposition to this war, most of the print and electronic media, including the BBC, whipped up jingoistic hysteria against Iraq and in favour of the war. 20 years on there is hardly anyone who can be found to speak in favour of it. Respectable bourgeois newspapers have published articles, written by respectable bourgeois journalists, condemning this war. We just take one such article as an example. It appeared in the Sunday Times of 19 March 2023. Under the half misleading title ‘Ever noticed how much less stable the world is now than in 2003? Well, Blair’s to blame’, the author, Mr Rod Liddle, has,...
