Growing Convergence of the Anti-Trump movement in the US

1 month 2 weeks ago

The upcoming mass No Kings! demonstrations planned for March 28 and ambitious plans for May Day mobilizations point to the growing convergence of anti-Trump forces. This convergence takes place against the backdrop of Trumps' destructive assault on democratic rights in the US and the sovereignty of nations abroad, most recently his reckless aerial attack on Iran, and plummeting approval ratings in the polls.

US Antiwar Movement Grows Slowly Amid Political Confusion

1 month 3 weeks ago

U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have conducted a tremendously powerful air war against Iran which, as Iran responded and Israel also made war on Lebanon, quickly became a regional war bringing death and destruction to many Middle Eastern nations, killing thousands. Trump is now demanding Iran's “unconditional surrender” and the right to a role in choosing the country's future leaders. Elected as a candidate who opposed foreign wars and regime change, Trump has repeatedly betrayed his promises.

8th March and Revolutionary Socialism

1 month 3 weeks ago

“Without organising women workers in hosieries, in jute mills, among hawkers, fighting for their rights, 8th March loses its significance. Today, when neoliberalism and Hindutva-fascism is sharpening assaults, women's rights must also be placed within the context of fighting that.”

A war neglected by the world — Afghanistan and Pakistan

1 month 3 weeks ago

The recent war between Afghanistan and Pakistan has been overshadowed by the attack on Iran by U.S. and Israeli imperialism. Yet the Afghan-Pakistan war, which began 21-22 February 2026 has resulted in heavy causalities on both sides. It was launched by the Pakistan Air Force airstrikes on Eastern Afghanistan (Nangarhar, Paktika, and Khost provinces).

In the time of predators

1 month 4 weeks ago

The attack against Venezuela in early January and the abduction of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores are part of the new U.S. strategy within the broader reorganization of the world and of inter-imperialist power relations. This aggressive strategy notably involves increased economic pressure and direct military interventionism toward Latin America.

Neither Islamabad nor Kabul: A Left Perspective on the Pakistan–Afghanistan War

2 months ago

As cross-border strikes intensify and Pakistan's defence minister declares “open war” against the Afghan Taliban government, the long arc of Islamabad's Afghanistan policy appears under severe strain. Is this merely another episode in a volatile frontier relationship — or the blowback of decades of militarised strategy and proxy politics?

France: Right-wing offensive follows killing

2 months ago

Since 12 February 2026, after a clash in Lyon between a group of antifa and a group of fascists that resulted in the death of one of the latter, France has taken a sordid turn in a campaign of demonization and criminalization of La France Insoumise (LFI), the left wing party led by Jean-Luc Mélenchon, which is directly accused of being politically responsible for the death of this person.
