The People's Forum is hosting summer school for people interested in becoming revolutionary organizers! I think this class is incredibly important and relevant in our current moment, and I wanted to plug it here because I think a lot of you will be interested in it as well. The classes are hybrid in-person (NYC) and virtual (Zoom), and recordings of previous classes as well as other materials are available online.

Classes are Tuesday/Thursday from 6:30pm-8:30pm ET, and Saturday at a time I don't fully remember, but I think is 1pm-3pm ET. And of course, you can always review the recordings at a time that works better for you! That means the next section is tonight (Thursday, July 11th)!

I saw the first class on Tuesday, and it was immediately obvious that the content and presentation of this material are extremely valuable, and I hope you all feel the same.

Written by a comrade of mine! The healthcare industry is politically and economically dominant in Cleveland. It's also very closely connected to the zionist entity, and workers are organizing against it.

Not going to continue to discuss that here though.

why because it's a garbage argument that immediately reveals itself to be bullshit? we could very easily sustain projected populations under a system of more equitable resource distribution and the destruction of the capitalist class

 

every single one; when I see a shitty tel aviv influencer join the IDF, I look forward to them being exploded by heroic Hamas resistance fighters; I pray constantly for their violent death

All I know is that whatever comes next, we absolutely seem to deserve all of it, b/c we brought this on ourselves.

Speak for your fucking self. What the fuck did Palestine do to deserve this? Migrants? Trans kids? Women?

Unfortunately due to the election he'll need to leave those left wing ideas to the side and go for somewhere between 100% Hitler and 99.8% Hitler.

The provisional measures announced today by the International Court of Justice in the case brought by South Africa against Israel has recognized the terrible brutality and genocidal rhetoric directed by the Israeli regime against Palestinians, formally acknowledging this reality in a principle body of international law. At the same time, the Court failed to live up to the expectations of the people of the world, who have been demanding in huge numbers an immediate ceasefire.

Following the ICJ’s announcement, South African Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor noted that she “would have wanted that the word ‘cessation’ is included in the judgment” but is “satisfied with the directives that have been given.” She explained that a close reading of the judgment is a de facto call for ceasefire because “in exercising the order there would have to be a ceasefire.” This will undoubtedly be the line of argument that South Africa and many other nations will pursue in the coming weeks to hold Israel accountable at the UN Security Council.

In failing to order an outright halt to the Israeli war machine’s onslaught in Gaza, the ICJ is applying a double standard. When Ukraine took Russia to the Court on charges of genocide, the ICJ issued preliminary measures in March of 2022 which stated that Russia must “immediately suspend the military operations that it commenced on 24 February 2022 in the territory of Ukraine.” The deaths of Ukrainians – overwhelmingly soldiers engaged in combat, not civilians as is the case in Gaza – was treated with much more urgency than the deaths of Palestinians. As an institution, the ICJ’s priorities reflect the strategic interests of the imperialist powers that dominate world politics.

When it suits its interests, the U.S. government loves to lecture the world about international law. For instance, during the controversy last year when a supposed Chinese “spy balloon” flew over the United States, Secretary of State Blinken told his counterpart Wang Yi that this was “a clear violation of international law.” If a simple balloon is enough to set off alarm bells in Washington about a breach of international law, then what about the murder of 12,000 children? The hypocrisy is beyond words.

The system of international law currently in place reflects a world order dominated by the big imperialist powers. As a consequence, there is no clear enforcement mechanism when it comes to addressing violations committed by those imperial powers or their allies. When the UN Security Council passed a resolution in 2011 against the then-government of Libya led by Muammar Gaddafi, NATO enforced it by bombing the country to oblivion. But when the United Nations General Assembly voted overwhelmingly last month in favor of a resolution supporting a ceasefire, unsurprisingly there was no imperialist military alliance that jumped into action to force its implementation.

Biden is a participant in this genocide. While he may have tactical differences with Netanyahu at times, he remains fundamentally a co-conspirator and in fact architect of one of the gravest crimes of the 21st century. Here in the United States and all around the world, the people’s struggle will continue until the genocide in Gaza ends, Palestine is free, and war criminals are brought to justice.
