China Issues Report on U.S. Human Rights Violations in 2022! (28.3.2023)

Overseas military operations have caused humanitarian catastrophes. On Dec. 20, 2022, non-profit U.S. media outlet Common Dreams pointed out in an article titled “Warren, Jacobs Accuse Pentagon of Vastly Undercounting Civilians Killed by US Military” that according to data from the UK-based monitor group Airwars, U.S. airstrikes alone have killed as many as 48,000 civilians in nearly 100,000 bombings in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen since 2001. According to data released by the Costs of War project at Brown University, since the 21st century, the U.S. government undertook what it labeled “counterterrorism” activities in 85 countries, directly killing at least 929,000 people and displacing 38 million people. And the U.S. military operations around the world have violated freedom and human rights of people in the United States and other countries. A woman and two children were killed in U.S. drone strikes in the Al-Hadba area of Al-Wadi, Yemen, on Nov. 30, 2022. “… the violence that characterizes the modern United States at home and in its conduct overseas — from the prevalence of gun — related deaths to the controversies over preemptive military action and drone strikes.”

The War on Truth! (11.11.2022)

Only the political rightwing in the US would be stupid enough to refer to its own political support as being a ‘Red Wave’! A genuine Red Wave would involve a massive movement of the empowered Workers who have thrown off the shackles of capitalist oppression and the false consciousness that keeps it artificially in place!

Palestine: Israeli Voting Population Continues Down ‘Fascist’ Path! (7.11.2022)

Sadeq Al-Shafi’ee, a political analyst from the West Bank city of Ramallah, expected the new Israeli government to “use the most extreme degree of excessive violence to deal with the Palestinians trying to confront occupation.”

“The Israeli voters’ choice of the right is evidence of rejecting any peace agreement with the Palestinians, or negotiation over the establishment of a Palestinian national entity on any part,” he explained.

Abdulmajid Sweilem, a Ramallah-based political analyst, suggested the Palestinians “get rid of the signed agreements,” because “the next Israeli government is not only a non-partner but hostile to peace.”

“What the elections in Israel resulted in is an opportunity for Fatah Movement led by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and (Gaza’s ruling movement) Hamas to rise up against reality, end their internal division and make real unity to confront the coming future,” Sweilem said.

Alexander Werth: France 1940-1955 – Chapter Two – ‘The French Political Parties and the 1951 Election’ (Pages 514-543)

It was ONLY the French Communists who led a campaign of continuous struggle and sacrifice against the Nazi Germans – and which were willing to co-ordinate this ‘Resistance’ with all Allied efforts to bring-down and defeat Hitler’s Armies in Western Europe! Whilst many ordinary French citizens took-up arms in support of the occupying Nazi Germans (and ‘killed’ liberating British soldiers on D-Day) – the French Communists (and their ‘Internationalist’ Comrades) stood their ground and supported the arriving Allies! For their sacrifice and bravery – the US re-wrote history in its own corrupt image, and falsely presented the Communist Party as a swastika-wearing ogre that did everything in its power to assist Hitler! The truth, as usual, was much different, as it was only the Communist Party that could be relied upon to ‘fight’ and ‘oppose’ fascism, Nazism and all forms of imperialism! With the US, UK and EU now openly supporting the (illegal) Neo-Nazi government of ‘Maidan’ Ukraine – it is yet again the ‘Communist Party’ which is providing a crucial level of support to the Russian efforts of ‘de-Nazifying’ Donbass!
