Forcing Refugees To Return to Syria is a Bad Idea

19 hours 37 minutes ago

“Not only are the conditions for a safe and dignified return to Syria not given. Without economic recovery and the reconstruction of critical state infrastructure a mass return of refugees to Syria would only worsen socio-economic conditions within the country and threaten large sectors of society dependent on remittances to survive.”

Many Fronts, One Struggle: A Report on the 7th International Ecosocialist Encounters

4 days 10 hours ago

215 years after Venezuela's Declaration of Independence: Long live the republic

6 days 22 hours ago

The massive demonstrations of popular solidarity following the earthquakes that shook the country on June 24 have once again shown us that no hardship can destroy the moral and spiritual foundation that defines us as a nation. We have responded to the destructive and deadly seismic energy with the restorative energy of humanity. With the same unyielding spirit that our Liberator Simón Bolívar displayed in the face of the earthquake of March 26, 1812, we will overcome this painful situation, and with the same resolve of yesterday and today, all patriotic forces will fight to regain our independence.

In addition to representing a capitulation to US and Israeli political interests, this “agreement”, in its conclusion, threatens to transform the Lebanese state into a security subcontractor of Tel Aviv and thus deepen both political and sectarian tensions in the country.

1 week 1 day ago
