    No Kings! Freedom! Millions Protest Trump across the United States

    16 June, by Dan La Botz

    At least five million people participated in 2,000 “No Kings Day” protests in big cities and small towns in all 50 states, the largest yet in a series of national demonstrations. In a festive but defiant spirit, with bands and drummers, the marchers chanted, sang songs, and waved their signs with slogans like “No Kings since 1776” or signs opposing President Donald Trump’s attacks on health care, food programs for children and the elderly, or his attacks on education and science. Some banners read “Fight Oligarchy.”

    Victory for right, neo-fascists in second place in Portuguese elections

    15 June, by Daniel Borges

    The results of the Portuguese parliamentary elections on 18 May 2025 mark a turning point in the country’s politics. The traditional right was comfortably in the lead and the Socialist Party has fewer deputies than the far right (after counting the votes of the emigrant constituencies). The right-wing parties as a whole won two-thirds of the seats in the Assembly, while the left obtained the lowest result in its history.
    All the parties to the left of the PS recorded their lowest results. (…)

    14 June, by Tempest Collective

    Ukraine at war, Ukraine in struggle...

    13 June, by Gin Vola, Elias Vola

    Resistance to the Russian invasion has not erased class divisions within Ukrainian society. The inequalities of our capitalist societies and the brutal neoliberalism applied by the Zelensky government are significantly affecting the population of Ukraine. The popular classes thus fight on a "double front", against anti-social policies and imperialist aggression.

    Student protest in Serbia: “either we stop or there will be a civil war”

    12 June, by Gaëlle Guehennec

    Since November 2024, Serbian students have been leading an unprecedented revolt against Vučić’s corrupt government. Along with two Belgian comrades from the Gauche Anticapitaliste, I went to Belgrade to meet them.
    In front of Belgrade’s Faculty of Philosophy, a table and camping chairs were set up. A dozen or so students wrapped up in duvets were watching the entrance. On the table were sudokus and packets of cigarettes to pass the time. The students take 8am shifts to secure the faculty, (…)

    The impact of the Zionist project on Palestine and the region

    30 January 2010, by Roland Rance

    Since the start of the second Intifada in Palestine, we have seen the collapse of imperialism’s Plan B for the region. Plan A had been simply to allow Israel to hold on to the territories it occupied in 1967. Following the first Intifada, it became clear that this approach was not viable, and a new plan “B” was adopted.

    The imperialist strategy of the US in the Middle East

    30 January 2010, by Salah Jaber

    Since the objective of this seminar is to focus on the Israeli-Arab and Israeli-Palestinian questions, it is best to approach the theme of United States strategy from this angle in particular. Because on the one hand we do not have enough time for a general exposé on everything the US is doing in the region, and on the other, because to a significant degree that would only have an indirect relationship with the central theme of this meeting. But these questions intersect, as you will see.
