Trump signals he may defy hardliners and talk to Iran (bad for ‘Israel’?)

Posted by: John Phoenox A different approach? This is clearly not what the hawks in the US and 'Israel' want, and even conservatives in Tehran are wary. Posted by: John Phoenix Defying speculations about a re-instated “maximum pressure” campaign against Iran, the U.S. President Donald Trump has messaged his preference for a diplomatic solution to the tensions with Tehran. On Fox News’ “Hannity” show on January 23, Trump said that the “only thing” he insisted on was that Iran “can’t have a nuclear weapon.” Significantly, he didn’t mention anything about Iran’s regional policies or its conflict with Israel, nor did he express any inclination to bomb Iran or change the regime in that country. Given that Iran’s leaders themselves have repeatedly emphasi...

Peace with Nazi entity Tops the Agenda for Syria’s New Leaders

Posted by: John Phoenix The HTS-led government in Damascus is making normalization with Israel a cornerstone of its agenda and conflict with Iran a strategic priority. It is not just isolated voices advocating for normalization; the new Syrian government and its backers appear determined to establish ties with Israel, even as Israel continues its occupation of Syrian territory and the bombardment of what remains of its infrastructure. While apologists attempt to justify Damascus’s Israel-friendly comments, the writing on the wall has long been clear. The new Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) backed Mayor of Damascus, Maher Marwan, stirred controversy last week when he called for normalization with Israel. Even though Damascus, the city he now governs, endures frequent Israeli ...

Stalin’s Library by Geoffrey Roberts – a resumé and review

Posted by: John Phoenix Over the next few issues of LALKAR we shall be publishing this review of Geoffrey Roberts’ book on Stalin’s library. Although as a bourgeois academic Roberts is obliged to take an anti-communist approach and to repeat may of the usual slanders against Stalin, such as in the sentence; “this book explores the intellectual life and biography of one of history’s bloodiest dictators, Joseph Stalin” (Introduction, p.2), nevertheless, as an honest historian, he has been able to shed a bright light on Stalin as a person, showcasing not only his genius as a political leader but also his untiring and meticulous devotion to the cause of proletarian revolution and the well-being of the toiling masses.. PART 1 By the time of his death, Stalin’s libr...

Ukraine: imperialism stumbles deeper into direct conflict with Russia

Posted by: John Phoenix Oreshnik On 20 November, Ukraine fired six long range US-made ATACM missiles deep into Russia. Russia’s Ministry of Defence said Ukraine had struck Russia’s Bryansk region with six missiles, and that air defence systems intercepted five and damaged one. On the 21 November Ukraine launched two long range British-made Storm Shadow missiles deep into Russia. Two Storm Shadow missiles, six HIMARS rockets, and 67 unmanned aerial vehicles were neutralised by Russian air defence systems. In both acts of war, it was Kiev’s finger on the trigger but Washington that called the shots, cheered on by British imperialism in the unsavoury person of the Labour prime minister Keir Starmer. For months the White House had been agonising over whether or not to ‘...

Provocations and rent-a-crowds in Georgia as imperialists push for Maidan 2.0

Posted by: John Phoenix Georgia’s people are resisting the Euro-Atlantic plot to turn their country into another base for attacking Russia. On 28 November, following months of increasingly hostile action by European and US imperialists in the country, Georgian prime minister Irakli Kobakhidze announced the suspension of his country’s European Union accession process, which would be put on hold until at least 2028. He stated that while an EU association treaty was still being pursued, negotiations for membership of the union and for receipt of EU grants would be suspended. The Georgia–European Union association agreement facilitates cooperation in areas such as trade, political dialogue and sectoral policies, aiming to align Georgia more closely with EU standards. Gover...

The fall of Syria

Posted by: John Phoenix On 8 December it was announced that President Bashar Al Assad had resigned from the office he had held since the year 2000 and had left the country. A statement released later stated that he was in exile in the Russian Federation and this has been subsequently confirmed by President Putin. Assad’s resignation brought about the end of the Syrian Arab Republic and a terrible defeat for Arab nationalism, Ba’athism and the axis of resistance. The fall of Assad was followed by direct intervention by two regional allies of US imperialism – Turkey in the north and Israel in the south. The Israeli air force has carried out hundreds of bombing runs targeting every Syrian military installation, ammunition dump and intelligence centre they can find. The Syria...

On the events in Korea

Posted by: John Phoenix Yoon Suk Yeol’s declaration of martial law on 3 December 2024 was destined to come into conflict with the opposition Democratic Party which secured control of the 300-seat South Korean legislature in the election that took place last April. Since then the Democratic Party has blocked legislation and held up the national budget. Government-affiliated agencies have embarked on a witch-hunt against the opposition, levelling charges of corruption; and anti-government elements have charged the president’s wife over questionable gifts of designer handbags. In 2016 President Park Geun-hye, was impeached after massive demonstrations by business professionals, families, workers and students at weekends. She was subsequently tried and sent to ...

The sad downfall of the Syrian government

Posted by: John Phoenix At long last, US imperialism and its surrogate in the Middle East, Nazi entity, have, at least temporarily, achieved their long-held dream of overthrowing the Syrian government headed by Bashar al-Assad. In the latest instalment of the conflict between Syria and the US-Nazi regime combine, events unfolded in a way, and with a speed, no-one had expected. The jihadi head-chopping, throat-slitting, heart-eating serial rapists and torturers broke out of their haven in the province of Idlib and launched their assault on 27 November, capturing within a week Aleppo (the second largest city in Syria), Hama (the third largest), followed by Homs and the capital Damascus on the The fall of Damascus within 12 days and the flight of Assad to Moscow, where he ...

Sunni Islamists call for the genocide of Alawites in Lattakia

Posted by: John Phoenix By Jim Aristopoulos, social anthropologist and historian Things have gone out of control in Syria. Across the entire country, Syrian religious minorities are living through hell on earth under Jolani’s regime. They are facing a silent genocide, and we have a debt to break this silence. People are being detained, humiliated, executed, and tortured simply for their religious beliefs under the pretext of cleansing the “remnants of the old regime.” In reality, the thousands of people being detained illegally are only “guilty” of their religious beliefs. There are no warrants or courts anymore. The terrorists of HTS and SNA have taken full control of the country and are free to do whatever they wish. They are mentally disturbed individuals who believe that ...
