“The United States government has continued to make possible, with massive arms shipments, Israel’s genocide in Gaza,” said one advocate. “The U.S. courts have failed to intervene. World bodies absolutelyshould.”
This is Che’s story – of how a small band within a few months was transformed into a Rebel Army. Originally published in 1968, this Revised Edition includes a new Foreword by Don Fitz, author of Cuban Health Care: The Ongoing Revolution. As Che remarked: “…I was more a medic than a soldier.” Fitz takes this observation as a starting point and highlights how the seeds of Cuba’s world renown health care system were planted in the mountains of the Sierra Maestra.
For the loved ones of some Palestinian captives, the short-lived ceasefire offered a painful road to reunion. On the rainy morning of Saturday, February 22nd, a crowd gathered near the Ramallah Cultural Palace, a building that typically hosts musical performances and movie screenings, but was now being used as the reception area for Palestinians released from Israeli prisons under the Israel–Hamas ceasefire.
My name is Mahmoud Khalil and I am a political prisoner. I am writing to you from a detention facility in Louisiana where I wake to cold mornings and spend long days bearing witness to the quiet injustices underway against a great many people precluded from the protections of the law.
The NATO enlargement, as you know, started in 1999 with Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic. Russia was extremely unhappy about it. But these were countries still far from the border. Russia protested, but of course to no avail. Then George Bush Jr came in when 9/11 occurred and President Putin pledged support.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s decade as the leader of the Liberal Party has come to an abrupt and embarrassing halt. His term as PM is marked with unabashed servitude to U.S. interests, bigotry, and frat boy antics. While his time in office has finally come to an end, it is unlikely that the next to hold the seat will be a true political departure from what the nation has already seen. During Justin Trudeau’s decade in power, he has proven to be the most slavish Prime Minister as an instrument of the U.S. in Canada’s history, especially since the beginning of the 20th century. His superficiality and hypocrisy served to disguise his servility. However, his prominent, consistent double-faced nature, tied to unparalleled frivolousness, was increasingly unable to hide his sycophantic fawning of the unfriendly neighbor to the south. The result is a cocktail of submissiveness to both Trump and Biden, whose mandates spanned the Trudeau ten-year terms, mixed with his trademark silliness and bigotry. This poisonous blend increasingly erupted in the waning months of the Biden mandate.
The murder of four Afro-Ecuadorian boys is another tragic example of the long history of racism in Latin America. The utter disregard for the lives of Black youth and the refusal to seek justice for the deplorable acts committed against them reveals the true nature of those states.

We share the pathologies of all dying empires with their mixture of buffoonery, rampant corruption, military fiascos, economic collapse and savage state repression.
