🧵 The #Nazi seizure of power was the greatest defeat ever suffered by the working class. This thread examines, using contemporary sources in chronological order, how two political tendencies reacted to it in 1933; #Zionists vs revolutionary #socialists led by Leon #Trotsky.
👀The Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy has published an article by A3P attorney Josh Hammer, Timon Cline, & Yoram Hazony. It calls on SCOTUS to reverse the 1947 Everson case, which held that the Establishment Clause applies to states & requires church-state separation. 1/
Doctors are fainting inside Gaza’s operating rooms from hunger and exhaustion, and surgeons are losing focus mid-surgery, said Dr. Muneer Alboursh, Director General of the Ministry of Health. qudsnen.co/doctors-faint-…
Imagine this: Settlers stole 3 sheep from my neighbours , and then came back at night — with full Israeli military support— to steal a fourth. From the same family. The same brutality. This isn’t about sheep. It’s about power, humiliation, and erasing Palestinian life.
TODAY: Armed Israeli settlers + soldiers TERRORIZED Masafer Yatta today, storming homes in Al-Tuwani, STEALING sheep & attacking Palestinians. They beat activists & assaulted the Rabai family. No justice. No consequences. This is Israel's policy of ethnic cleansing in action.
The "putting Gaza on a diet" thing was not a joke. It was a policy designed largely by Dov Weissglas, an Israeli lawyer and government adviser. The plan was implemented. Israel began counting the calories going in to Gaza in 2006.
israel has been starving gaza on & off for years. deeply restricted resources, joked that they were putting gaza “on a diet.” israel is starving gaza to death just to flex. & they do it repeatedly. they’re insane & it’s insane the u.s. so gladly encourages it. pure nazi shit.
The Western-backed Zionist extermination of Palestinians in Gaza continues unabated. Silence is complicity. #GazaStarving #GazaHolocaust
Deeply troubling. There is no section of the capitalist ruling class with a reform plan to stop the destruction of the world environment. Only the international working class is interested, and has the means. But it requires an international, revolutionary socialist leadership.

🧵 This week’s global headlines reveal a world teetering on the edge—#genocide in #Gaza, censorship, political repression, and capitalist decay. A thread: 1️⃣ Mobilize the working class to stop the #Gazagenocide! Mass starvation. Massacres at food lines. Entire neighborhoods…
Meanwhile, this is what is actually happening!
Today, the IDF invited dozens of international journalists to the Kerem Shalom crossing inside Gaza, to see for themselves. Hundreds of aid trucks have entered Gaza with Israel’s approval, but the supplies are standing idle, undelivered. The reason? The UN refuses to distribute…
A very significant development! If you haven't followed this critically important case, the Ukrainian government has jailed 26-year-old socialist Bogdan Syrotiuk for well over a year bc of his anti-war views & speech. Petition in link below!
To blame Hamas now, or at any point since October 7th, is to align yourself with a genocidal regime and its criminal imperial enablers. At least be honest about who you support.
Dang that sounds awful. Have you tried voting to send more Iron Dome funding to Israel to stop this
The forced famine of more than 2 million people in Gaza, including one in five children, is the direct result of Israel withholding food aid. The US government must pressure Israel to immediately let in more aid and stop shooting people trying to feed their families before…

The fact that the ECHR has now accepted the case speaks to the egregious nature of the violations of Bogdan’s rights and the effectiveness of the campaign launched by the ICFI for his release. wsws.org/en/articles/20…
These criminals enjoy total impunity.
"The endgame should be: no Palestinians in Gaza. There's a huge opportunity here, both for us and for them... Move all the population that still remains..." Prominent Judeo-Nazi military man (and aspiring politician) Brig. Gen. (Res.) Ofer Vinter explains how to "vanquish Gaza":…
