On March 13, Palestinian immigrant worker Leqaa Kordia, 33, a U.S. resident, will mark exactly one year since her detention by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and given a political prison sentence disguised as an immigration status case. She remains incarcerated in a detention center in Texas.

Trump's Board of Peace further subjugates Palestinians, at the same time that it threatens to replace the UN-based imperialist system with something far worse

Despite claims by Trump and his minions, voter fraud in the U.S. is very rare. But his lies still set the basis for meddling with elections, and doing away with the rest of our democratic rights along the way

This March 8th—International Working Women’s Day—we raise our voices as part of the global working class against the imperialist capitalist system that is responsible for producing exploitation and oppression on a global scale. Capitalism is not just a regime of exploitation of the workforce. It sustains itself by fomenting sexism and all forms of oppression […]

The modern police apparatus in the United States is based on the principles of intelligence fusion and intelligence-led policing. These are fancy ways of saying that all of the various police agencies are in communication and organization with each other using methods of mass surveillance, informant networks, and community engagement to enforce capitalist social order.  The ways that this communication and organization is organized are concrete and easy to identify, but largely undiscussed by politicians and the mainstream press. They are also more expansive than the police, or even the state, including in their networks large corporations’ and other private surveillance as well as executives and other elites.

March 8 is a historic day of struggle on which working women rise up against exploitation and domination. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the resistance of women workers in textile factories, against low wages, long working hours, and inhumane conditions, laid the foundations of today’s women’s struggle. That resistance continues today against a system of exploitation whose roots run deep.

Turkiye’s stance, behind a mask of supposed neutrality, continues its cooperation with the U.S.–Israel bloc. Trade with Israel has continued for years. While the Kürecik radar base monitors Iranian airspace together with radar installations in Azerbaijan, the extent of the U.S. Air Force’s support for operations from the Incirlik Air Base remains unclear due to media censorship. Turkiye aims to transform its rising influence in the region, following the weakening of the Assad dictatorship in Syria, into regional hegemony with the weakening of Iran.

The central dividing line in this war is clear. The United States and Israel have launched an imperialist assault on a sovereign country, openly demanding regime change and killing hundreds of civilians in the process. Whatever crimes the Islamic Republic has committed against its own people—and they are many—this does not grant Washington or Tel Aviv the right to bomb Iran, assassinate its leaders, or determine its political future. The right to remove the regime belongs to the Iranian people alone.

As Afghanistan and Pakistan slip into war, nationalism now dominates political discourse. The Pakistani elite accuses Afghan leadership of harboring terrorism, while Afghan authorities speak of sovereignty. Yet on both sides, structural violence is ignored: unemployment, extremely weak public services (education and health sectors among the lowest state expenditures), and militarized politics that channel vast resources into destruction instead of social investment.

The protests stands as one of the largest single action by workers anywhere in India. These are contract workers, many of whom come from rural regions of Bihar and North India, they come for a better life to Haryana. Their labour built up one of India’s fastest growing industrial regions. Yet, for their sacrifices, they aren’t given the basic respect of a regular pay.

US imperialism and Israel are attacking Iran right now. This attack is set to be much larger than the one in June 2025. The bombings have already hit several Iranian cities, including Tehran, Isfahan, Qom, Tabriz, and others. Both Trump and Netanyahu openly aim to eliminate Khamenei and Iran’s leadership. They seek not only to […]

With the launch of his Peace Council at the World Economic Forum in Davos on January 22, US President Donald Trump is attempting to carry out his long-cherished and shamelessly publicized project to establish a Middle Eastern Riviera in Gaza by February 2025. Amidst the suffering of the Palestinian people in the face of ongoing genocide, he sees an opportunity to establish his luxury resort in full view of the world, while giving carte blanche to Israel, imperialism's military enclave, to carry out the final solution in the ongoing Nakba—the Palestinian catastrophe that has lasted for almost 78 years.

Palantir, a US AI and tech firm, is set to roll out a platform for amalgamating all patient data in NHS England. In 2021, they were awarded a £300 million contract for the project. And yet four years on, just 15 percent of NHS trusts are using it and there is sizeable pushback from NHS workers and patients. So who is Palantir? How did we get to where we are now?

U2’s listless liberal, pacifist, religious politics are less poignant than ever, and the band retreads similar sonic ground to prior work that is less able to make up for the lyrics’ weaknesses than it did in the ’80s.

Despite all its steps toward authoritarianism, the regime fails to gain the consent of the masses. The labor-capital contradiction creating an undeniable crisis, and corruption is erupting in every field. Every new attack on universities further sharpens the anger of the youth against the regime.

San Francisco educators and school workers have won our first strike in nearly 50 years. The strike galvanized our entire union, garnered support from the City’s working-class, and forced a long-intransigent district to concede on our key demands for better working and living conditions.
