As the war drums begin their deadly tattoo we must realise that my enemies enemy is not my friend. Herewith is an article by Comrade Sunsara Taylor which deals with the complex question of Iran. Bob Avakian, Chairman of the RCP,USA

As the U.S.'s crimes against humanity in the Middle East mount, it is of tremendous importance for people in the U.S. to honestly confront and rise to the profound responsibilities before us in bringing this to a halt. In this spirit, I welcomed the argument made by Thier and Hess in the Socialist Worker on April 20, 2007 entitled “Standing up to Islamophobia,” while I find their central arguments to be wrong & harmful.I do not doubt that they wish to oppose U.S. wars of aggression and their accompanying assault on Muslims, Arabs and South Asians living in the U. S. But they end up arguing for an approach that will neither meet the actual challenges of opposing the U.S. “crusade,” nor bring forward truly liberating possibilities here and around the world. read full story / add a comment

international / politics / elections / other press Sunday August 19, 2007 19:30 by Borat
Kazakhstan as we all know is where Borat comes from. & in keeping with their post-Soviet democratic traditions they've just celebrated a general election with results which could probably cause even Ahern or Brown to go quite puice green with envy.

The Fatherland's Ray of Light "Nur Otan" party has won all the seats in the parliament. Quite. every single one of them.

Of course people are wondering were the elections fair - but nobody is calling Jimmy Carter quite yet because seemingly according to some mystical election pillar of Western life, there has never been a fair election in Kazakhstan.......so it doesn't matter then. Meanwhile the Kazakhs look forward to oil and gas revenue the new Russian/Chinese pipeline through their country will bring. Puice. lovely colour. read full story / add a comment

Aer Lingus and government betrayal - Unions must act now!

There was palpable anger at a meeting of Aer Lingus workers at a meeting in Shannon Airport where Aer Lingus Chief Executive, Dermot Mannion, officially announced the move from Shannon to Belfast. Workers jeered, heckled and booed Mannion during his speech and many workers walked out of the meeting when Mannion indicated that he would not answer questions from the workers. read full story / add a comment
