The UK: A Return to the Past Masquerading as the Future

BY KENNETH SURIN Photograph Source: Simon – CC BY 2.0 It is an understatement to say that 2022 has been a dismal year in British politics, except of course for the plutocrats who have their nasty paws on the levers of power with the active connivance of the Tory government. Alas, 2023 is not likely to be any different and will probably be even more chaotic than last year. UK excess deaths are currently running at 1000 a week/over 50,000 a year, the worst figures since 1951. The plutocracy is immensely relaxed about the prospect of a Labour government led by Keir Starmer. For one thing, Starmer will not threaten them with wealth taxes. Starmer is more interested in what the hedge fund managers think, as opposed to the growing number of wretched and impoverished. ...

Poetic Nonviolent Victory Over War

BY BRAD WOLF FacebookTwitterRedditEmail War is a language of lies. Cold and callous, it emanates from dull, technocratic minds, draining life of color. It is an institutional offense to the human spirit. The Pentagon speaks the language of war. The President and the Congress speak the language of war. Corporations speak the language of war. They sap us of outrage and courage and the appreciation of beauty. They commit carnage of the soul. Take for example the recent report issued by the Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS) entitled “The First Battle of the Next War: Wargaming a Chinese Invasion of Taiwan.” This think tank conducted 24 iterations of wargames whereby China invades Taiwan. The U.S. and its allies respond. The result each time...

Supporting Zio-Nazi army is against US law

Supporting 'IDF' is against US law By Mahmoud El-Yousseph Attention All US Citizens: Donations to the IDF are not tax-deductible. Under the US Patriot Act-1990, whoever knowingly provides material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization shall be fined or imprisoned for no more than 20 years or both. The year 2022 has been the deadliest year for Palestinians living under Israeli occupation in decades. 231 Palestinians (including 41 children) were killed by the IDF in 2022. Online news magazine Modoweiss kept a record of all those who were killed by the IDF and illegal Jewish settlers. Google Mondoweiss for their names. Among the Palestinian children who were killed by IDF during 2022, 17 were from Gaza while the other 24 were from the occupied West Ba...

Iran and the western-manufactured hijab protests

Attempts to cast imperialist countries as champtions of women’s rights are laughable to anyone familiar with the declining position of women in the west. Lalkar writers Subscribe to our  channel The stirring up and coverage of an allegedly widespread protest movement (even ‘revolution’) against the hijab in Iran, supposedly in defence of the rights of women, is a classic example of imperialist media lies and regime-change operations. This image, for example, is presented on a page that purports to show the protests ‘in pictures’, but this picture and several others shown there are actually from sympathy protests (shot up close so as to conceal the small scale) in imperialist countries like the USA and Germany. Moreover, all the banners are written primarily in English, ...

Microchips and monopoly: a new front in the global struggle

What is the significance of the USA's quest to repatriate the complex chain of semiconductor production? Lalkar writers Subscribe to our  channel The fight to control access to semiconductor technology is the latest iteration of the imperialist quest to retain their technological dominance over the developing world – a dominance that is essential to their continued ability to extort superprofits. As a key driver of manufacturing and technological progress, bourgeois economists are paying increasing attention to the development and manufacture of the new generations of semiconductor microprocessors, and they are not alone. The legislators and ruling class of the chief imperialist powers, in particular the USA and Britain, ever keen to stifle t...

Facebook can’t hide its hypocrisy

By: Mahmoud El-Yousseph Dear Editor, Facebook said "Death to Khamenei" post does not violate the rule banning violent threats. It further argued that the slogan meant " down with Khamenei." Years ago, Israeli lawmaker Ayelet Shaked's Facebook post call for genocide of Palestinians got thousands of Facebook likes. Facebook did not think then that Shaked's post calling for the slaughter of Palestinian mothers who give birth to “little snakes.” meet the definition of genocide and or an incitement to violence against the Palestinians. After international outrage, Mrs. Shaked deleted her post and days later, she was appointed as Justice Minister. I remember when the Manar TV was banned in the US, Canada, Australian, and Europe for playing "death to Israel" song. It looks lik...

Jericho: Nazi Soldiers Shoot 13 Palestinians, 3 Seriously, Abduct 5, And Demolish 4 Homes

Early Saturday morning, many armored Nazi military vehicles, including bulldozers, invaded Aqbat Jabr camp, south of Jericho in the northeastern West Bank, shot thirteen Palestinians, including three who suffered life-threatening wounds, demolished four homes, and abducted at least five Palestinians, including a father and two of his sons. The invasion was carried out shortly after undercover Nazi soldiers infiltrated the refugee camp and surrounded a Palestinian home before many army vehicles invaded the area after surrounding and isolating it. The invasion led to protests before the Nazi soldiers fired a barrage of live fire, rubber-coated steel bullets, gas bombs, and concussion grenades. Medical sources have confirmed that the Nazi soldiers shot thirteen Palestini...

Nazi Forces Kill One Palestinian; Injure Several at Protests Across West Bank

Nazi troops invaded several parts of the West Bank, and killed a young man at the Huwwara military roadblock, south of Nablus, in the northern part of the Nazi occupied West Bank.

Video Player Abdullah, a married father of a newborn baby boy, worked in the surveying department (Land Authority) of the Palestinian Authority. His brother, Ibrahim, works for Palestine TV. The Nazi army claimed that Abdullah tried to snatch Nazi soldier’s weapon, an allegation frequently used by the army in similar cases, and could not be substantiated. After shooting the young man, the soldiers left him bleeding on the ground without first aid and refused to allow Palestinian...
