Amid Genocide and Ethnic Cleansing, Palestinians Vote in Local Elections

The elections were called by the Palestinian National Authority with the aim of regaining some legitimacy, as its policy of collaboration with the Israeli occupation is highly unpopular, having proven contrary to the interests of the majority of Palestinians. The sole beneficiary of this collaboration is the Palestinian bourgeoisie linked to the occupation’s businesses. 88% of the candidates ran as independents for electoral reasons, although many were members of Palestinian parties, primarily Fatah. In Deir al-Balah, in Gaza, four lists ran. All were announced as independent, but in reality the “Rise of Deir al-Balah” list, close to Fatah, won six of the 15 council seats, and “Deir al-Balah Unites Us,” closer to Hamas, won two seats. Of the independent lists, “Future of Deir al-Balah” won 5 seats and “Peace and Reconstruction” won 3.

Pakistan, May 1, 2026: Build, or Defeat is Your Destiny

Pakistan, May 1, 2026: Build, or Defeat is Your Destiny
Every year on May 1st, International Workers' Day is observed around the world. It is not merely a holiday to respect labor; rather, it is a day of remembrance of struggle and revolutionary resolve – the bloodiest chapter in the working class's struggle against the capitalist system. Pakistan is a textbook example of capitalist exploitation. The conditions of the working class here are barbaric.

Global Sumud Flotilla Intercepted by Israel in International Waters

Global Sumud Flotilla Intercepted by Israel in International Waters
The Global Sumud flotilla, which was transporting humanitarian aid to Gaza, was attacked by Israeli armed forces in a Greek search-and-rescue zone, 35 miles from Crete (Greece) and 1,200 km from Gaza. Netanyahu’s genocidal government used drones, communications jamming technology, and armed speedboats in international waters to seize the flotilla’s members. According to reports, 22 […]

Judge sentences Zé María for speech against the State of Israel

Judge sentences Zé María for speech against the State of Israel
On Tuesday, the 28th, the 4th Federal Criminal Court sentenced PSTU President Zé María to two years in prison for the crime of “racism.” What is most surprising is that the decision stems from a speech by Zé María in defense of the Palestinian people, denouncing the genocide and the colonialist regime imposed by the State of Israel on occupied Palestine. In the face of a decision with no legal basis, the PSTU will appeal to the Federal Court of São Paulo (TRF3). Beyond that, the party will not back down one inch from its condemnation of the State of Israel and the successive crimes against humanity it has been perpetrating under the gaze of the world.

Orbán’s Defeat: Advances and Challenges for the Working People of Hungary

A new historical stage had begun. Why did Orbán lose, and what does his […]

The worker’s uprising in Noida

The worker’s uprising in Noida
It had been only a few months back that the contract workers of Indian Oil Company had revolted in a wildcat strike. They were protesting the conditions of work for contract workers. The uprising inspired petro chemical workers in Surat where the same conditions were replicated. Now, the fire spreads from Panipat in Haryana to the streets of Noida, Uttar Pradesh. Noida is the so-called Millenium city of India, a poster child for neo-liberal growth. The militant protests of workers have made non-sense of this illusion of neo-liberal capitalist development.

JBS meatpacking strike: A strong showing for future struggles

JBS meatpacking strike: A strong showing for future struggles
Between Monday, March 16, and Saturday, April 4, a predominately immigrant workforce shut down one of the largest beef processing plants in the country. Beyond the “bread and butter” issues of wages, healthcare and safety this strike had much larger political implications about the ability of immigrant workers to organize and fight back against employer and government attacks in the workplace and community. The strike certainly raised questions about the difficulties workers face in winning contracts that deliver big economic packages and make meaningful long term gains. But what the strike lacked in financial impact it made up for as an example of fearless union members coming together from dozens of different ethnic backgrounds to stand up and fight.

Iran war: a global environmental catastrophe

Iran war: a global environmental catastrophe
In the imperialist war initiated by the U.S. and Israel, the environmental consequences have been particularly vile for Iranian people. Although, at the moment of writing, a temporary and fragile ceasefire has been arranged, these consequences will last for decades and affect the whole region. Indeed, in the near future we can expect more environmentally destructive and ultimately pointless wars to be waged by U.S. imperialism, powered by AI and justified by genocidal rhetoric.

A crushing defeat for authoritarian populism

A crushing defeat for authoritarian populism
Parliamentary elections were held in Hungary last Sunday. The results left no room for doubt: a massive rejection at the polls brought an end to Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s sixteen-year rule. Moreover, Orbán’s defeat deals a serious blow to both Putin and Trump at the same time. As the results came in, a sea of people flooded the streets of Budapest and other cities. The Hungarian masses categorically refuse to continue down Orbán’s path. It remains to be seen—beyond his campaign promises—what course his successor, Péter Magyar, will take.

Iran: Imperialism’s Retreat

Iran: Imperialism’s Retreat
Pakistan’s role as an international mediator is not a sign of structural change, but a reconfiguration within the same system. The state uses its geographic position to enhance its relevance among competing global powers while managing internal instability. This external role is transformed into an ideological narrative domestically. State media and official discourse present Pakistan as an emerging global actor and an indispensable force for peace. At a time when the population faces inflation, unemployment, and severe economic pressure alongside repression, this narrative functions as a substitute form of hope—that international recognition is improving and future conditions will become better.

 Freedom for Guillermo Medina Reyes!

 Freedom for Guillermo Medina Reyes!
The recent detention of Guillermo Medina Reyes by ICE agents in San Jose, Calif., is a direct attack against immigrants and against the entire working class of this country. His arrest is part of a state offensive that combines immigration repression, the criminalization of protest, and a detention apparatus that clearly serves the interests of the ruling classes. Guillermo’s case cannot be understood outside the concrete functioning of the capitalist state—a set of institutions (police, courts, legislatures, national and local executive bodies, prisons, ICE) designed by the boss class to control, divide, and discipline the working class, particularly its immigrant sectors.

Working people are paying for Iran war costs

Working people are paying for Iran war costs
Six weeks into Trump’s Big Iranian Misadventure, fuel and food prices are soaring because of massive supply chain disruptions caused by the U.S.-Israeli assault on Iran. In the context of the U.S.-Israeli war and Iranian retaliatory attacks, the price of oil rose worldwide. The Strait of Hormuz is effectively shut down with no end in sight. Approximately 20.3 million barrels of petroleum and crude oil, 25% of the world’s maritime oil shipments, passes through the Strait of Hormuz daily. Currently, about 95% of all traffic through that vital waterway is stopped.
