Blockaded and living in an open-air prison, for more than 1000 days the 1.5 million people of the Palestinian Gaza strip have existed in conditions of Nazi-style collective punishment for electing a government that displeases the Israeli state. Food and water insecurity hovers at around 60% according to figures from the [...]

Watch out for Obama’s new attacks on immigrants!
Friday, April 9, 2010
Obama and the Democrats pretend to be on the side of immigrants, and they cry hypocritical tears over families being torn apart. But under Obama the number of people being deported is higher than under Bush (a record 387,790 last year)! And now Obama is supporting comprehensive legislation which is designed to increase the exploitation [...]
Demonstrate against U.S. imperialism March 19 and 21!
Sunday, March 14, 2010
On March 19, 2003 the United States launched its “shock and awe” attack upon Iraq. This was a criminal act of unprovoked aggression. During the past seven years this war has resulted in the deaths of around one million Iraqis, and the displacement of millions more. Tens of thousands of other Iraqis [...]

2010 Winter Olympics: An orgy of money-making and reactionary nationalism
Thursday, February 11, 2010
Organize the struggles against mass impoverishment, environmental destruction, discrimination, violation of the rights of First Nations peoples, the growing police state, imperialism and war!

On Martin Luther King day, and every day: Struggle against racism, exploitation and war!
Monday, January 18, 2010
Today, over 40 years after his assassination by white racist tools of the U.S. ruling class, capitalist politicians of all stripes have found it politically useful to “honor” Dr. King, while trampling on the progressive principles he stood for. They want to turn him into a harmless picture on a poster [...]
Freedom for Palestine!
Friday, January 1, 2010
At this time one year ago the armed-to-the-teeth Israeli government had unleashed a furious military assault upon the people of Gaza. Some 1,400 Palestinians were ultimately killed—the majority of them civilians, including 400 women and children. Thousands more were injured, while homes and the vital infrastructure of Gaza were turned into rubble. Such was the [...]
Denounce Obama’s war escalation!—U.S. get out of Afghanistan and Pakistan!
Saturday, December 5, 2009
The dispatch of 30,000 more U.S. troops to Afghanistan and stepped up drone assassinations and Special Forces operations in Pakistan is an outrage. It means the death and untold suffering for thousands more Afghan and Pakistani people, more deaths of U.S. soldiers, more atrocities and war crimes. And to justify it, on December 1 President [...]
