U.S. Does Not Condemn Israeli Terrorism, Does Reaffirm Support for the Genocidal Zionist State

No More Immigrant-Bashing! Stop the Attacks on Bob Avakian & the Revcoms. Get Organized 4 Revolution

THE TIME IS NOW!

Letter from Lenny Wolff

Blood-Soaked Oppressors Talk of “Joy,” “Freedom” and “Compassion.”

Liberals’ Love Affair With Mass Murderers

Supporting a mass murderer and mass incarcerator running for President?! Who could be so desperate and so deluded?

Real-Time Leadership for Revolution In This Time 

While Prime Minister Netan-Nazi, aka Benjamin Netanyahu, was being applauded repeatedly by a bipartisan session of Congress, the U.S.-backed and -funded Israeli genocide—which Netan-nazi was here to uphold and defend—intensified.

This is not genocide through neglect or by accident, but active, conscious, murderous policy of the Israeli government. Again, fully armed, financed and backed by the U.S. government. 

Here is just some of the nightmare being brought down on the people of Gaza.

Down with Sheikh Hasina’s reactionary blood-stained regime! 

For a fundamentally new liberating society through a real revolution!

A full picture of what was involved with the attempted assassination of Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania—including the motivation of the shooter—is not clear at this point. But whatever the actual motivation of the shooter, and whatever might be involved with this, it has nothing to do with any positive change, and certainly nothing to do with an emancipating transformation of society, which can only be brought about through a revolution, involving millions of people and aiming to sweep away this whole system and replace its relations and institutions of exploitation and oppression, and its putrid culture, with ones that are liberating and uplifting.

“Our Anger Is Greater Than Our Fear”

The Revcom.us Environmental Writing Group

From Central America to the Mediterranean countries of Europe and North Africa… from India to the Middle East, and the U.S. to Mexico… much of the planet is in the grip of deadly heat waves. These global heat waves have already killed thousands of people this year—including over 1,300 in Saudi Arabia as part of the Hajj, or Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca. In India, a months-long heat wave has killed over 100 people, afflicted over 40,000 others with heatstroke, and is fueling dangerous water shortages.

On July 1, the Supreme Court made a decision as far-reaching as it was outrageous. They ruled that the indictment of Donald Trump for leading the January 6 attempt at a coup d’etat—that is, a violent takeover of the government—would have to be “re-examined.” But the logic and rules laid down in their 6-3 vote would almost certainly lead to large and decisive parts of the indictment—and perhaps the whole thing—being thrown out and in any case being delayed past the election.

The debate that went down last week between Biden and Trump showed the rot at the heart—and at the head—of this system. The mad-dog fascist Trump blamed every single problem of this system on one of its most oppressed and persecuted groups: the immigrants who have been forced to risk life and limb to come to this country.

The following is the transcript of an interview revcom.us and The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show correspondent Alan Goodman did on June 22 with Dr. Majed Jaber, a Palestinian physician working at the European Gaza Hospital in southern Gaza. The interview took place as Dr. Jaber was working a 24-hour shift at the hospital under unimaginably difficult conditions, including that during the interview, Israeli rockets landing nearby shook the hospital. Watch the interview here.

In a detailed set of reports released on June 12, a United Nations commission has documented and called out Israel and its military for major war crimes and crimes against humanity. The main Report summarizes an investigation that began on October 7, 2023, the day of the Hamas attack against Israel. (Two additional reports—on Hamas and on Israel—go much more fully into the evidence supporting the summary Report’s conclusions.)

Stop the Execution of Iranian Rap Artist Toomaj Salehi
 
Free Iran’s Political Prisoners

By Alan Goodman

On the night of June 6, some six thousand Palestinian refugees—many of them children—were sleeping in classrooms of a UN school in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. Many had fled from Nuseirat to Rafah in May, driven by Israeli threats and bombs to what Israel claimed was a safe place. Then, as Israeli tanks, bombs, and threats drove a million people back out of Rafah, people sought shelter in the wreckage of the places they had been driven out of earlier, including Nuseirat.

At least 36,801 people have been killed and 83,680 wounded in Israel’s ongoing massacre in Gaza since October 7. An estimated 10,000 more dead lie beneath the rubble of Israeli bombs. During these past eight months, people in Gaza have been driven from their homes, seeking but not finding shelter. A million people were driven into Rafah, on the very southern edge of Gaza. Now Rafah is being bombed and overrun by Israeli tanks and troops. And people have been driven back north, to Gaza City, to Nuseirat in central Gaza, and other places. But there is no safety anywhere.

“Totalitarianism” is a thoroughly unscientific—or, really, anti-scientific—“theory” concocted and promoted by intellectual apologists of this system of capitalism-imperialism.
