Millions of people thrown off social services while billions upon billions of dollars are unleashed to build one of the largest repressive apparatuses in human history. There will be unprecedented despair and fury. Our task is to organize it into a weapon of class struggle.

No war on Iran. Israel intends expand its genocidal bloodbath in Gaza into an imperialist war on the entire region. Social movements in the US must redouble our efforts to bring the US backed war machine to a screeching halt.
