Iraq: Urgent action required – detained and missing protesters at risk of torture Print E-mail
By Akram Nadir (Union Organizer in Iraq and Kurdistan)   
Friday, 15 April 2011
Firas Ali, an Iraqi political activist, was detained at the office of the Federation of Workers’ Councils and Unions in Iraq, Baghdad, at about 2pm on 13 April. A protester, Haidar Shihab Ahmad Abdel Latif, is believed to have been detained on 1 April on Tahrir Square, Baghdad. Alaa Nabil, another youth leader of the February 25 Group, was also arrested on April 8, and remains in custody. It is feared that they and other detained activists are at high risk of torture.
 
No more arrests and torture of demonstrators in Iraq: Release Youth Activist Firas Ali Print E-mail
By Yanar Mohammed, President Organization of Women's Freedom in Iraq (OWFI   
Friday, 15 April 2011
These days, Iraqi authorities feel free to carry out arbitrary arrests, physical assault and torture of Iraqi citizens who participate in peaceful demonstrations. In fact, they have begun to recruit and utilize of the expertise of the masterminds who were part of the horrific Baathist regime of Saddam.
 
Ivory Coast: French imperialism "protecting civilians"? Print E-mail
By Jerome Metellus (PCF Paris)   
Wednesday, 13 April 2011
The French army has bombed the residence of Laurent Gbagbo, to "protect civilians" we are told. One is struck by the wide variety of means used to achieve this so-called “humanitarian” objective!
 
Imperialism and the Arab Revolution Print E-mail
By Lal Khan (Pakistan)   
Wednesday, 13 April 2011
There is no future without the past. An empirical, mechanistic and a pragmatic approach to the revolution sweeping across the region from the Atlantic Ocean to the Arabian Sea would end up in a flawed analysis and a disastrous fate for the mass upheaval.
 
Libyan Interim Government – agents of imperialism Print E-mail
By Fred Weston   
Tuesday, 05 April 2011
What started as a genuine revolution against Gaddafi, has been taken over by reactionary bourgeois elements. In the Interim Council, and now the newly formed Interim Government, direct representatives of imperialist interests have been promoted to leading positions.
 
Morocco: “The people reject the constitution of slaves” Print E-mail
By marxist.com   
Thursday, 31 March 2011
A new momentum has been reached by the protest movement in Morocco. The call for a new Day of Action on March 20 was a test. Would the King’s shadowy reforms succeed in demobilising the masses or on the contrary push the movement forward? As we predicted the latter happened. Possibly twice as many people came out on the streets than a month earlier.
 
Japan: After the earthquake Print E-mail
By Rob Sewell   
Wednesday, 23 March 2011
It is the worst disaster for Japan since the war, since Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This triple whammy of a force-9 earthquake, a tsunami, followed by a nuclear disaster, has shaken the country to its very foundations. And the consequences of this multifaceted catastrophe are widening by the day.
 
Support Libyan revolution, Oppose imperialist aggression! Print E-mail
By Fred Weston   
Monday, 21 March 2011
On Saturday afternoon French warplanes were the first to bomb Libya, in what one can only describe as open imperialist aggression. This was followed by US and UK ships and submarines launching 110 Tomahawk Cruise missiles. The French are strengthening their position by sending their Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier into waters off the Libyan coast
 
Libyan revolution and imperialist meddling Print E-mail
By Fred Weston   
Friday, 18 March 2011
Yesterday the United Nations Security Council voted by 10 votes in favour against 5 abstentions to impose a no-fly zone over Libya. The resolution authorises UN member states "to take all necessary measures... to protect civilians and civilian populated areas under threat of attack in the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, including Benghazi, while excluding a foreign occupation force of any form on any part of Libyan territory".
 
The Arab Revolution - Manifesto of the International Marxist Tendency. Part Three Print E-mail
By IMT   
Friday, 18 March 2011
To say that a revolution has begun is not to say that it has been completed, much less that victory is assured. It is a struggle of living forces. Revolution is not a one-act drama. It is a complicated process with many ebbs and flows. The overthrow of Mubarak, Ben Ali and Gannouchi marks the end of the first stages, but the Revolution has not yet succeeded in completely overthrowing the old regime, while the latter has not yet succeeded in re-establishing control.
 
The Arab Revolution - Manifesto of the International Marxist Tendency. Part Two Print E-mail
By IMT   
Friday, 18 March 2011
In the first instance the demands of the Revolution are democratic. Of course! After 30 years of a brutal dictatorship the youth long for freedom. Naturally, their desire for democracy can be abused by bourgeois politicians who are only interested in their future careers in a “democratic” parliament. But we are obliged to take up the democratic demands and give them a sharply revolutionary content. This will inevitably lead on to the demand for an even more fundamental change in society.
 
Why has the revolution stalled in Libya? Print E-mail
By Fred Weston   
Friday, 18 March 2011
After taking one town after another in the early days of the Libyan revolution, now the insurgents are having to come to terms with the fact that Gaddafi has managed to hold together a significant section of his special security forces and is hitting back. How does one explain this dramatic turnaround?
 
Hands Off Venezuela statement on Libya and misinformation Print E-mail
By HOV   
Wednesday, 16 March 2011
We publish this statement by Hands Off Venezuela Britain on the recent attempt by imperialism to spread misinformation about the relationship between Gaddafi and the Bolivarian revolution.
 
The Arab Revolution - Manifesto of the IMT. Part One Print E-mail
By www.marxist.com   
Tuesday, 15 March 2011
The Arab Revolution is a source of inspiration to workers and young people everywhere. It has rocked every country in the Middle East to their foundations and its reverberations are being felt all over the world. The dramatic events in North Africa and Egypt mark a decisive turning point in human history. These events are not isolated accidents apart from the general process of the world revolution.
 
Greece: The crisis of capitalism and the impact on education Print E-mail
By Lina Mitsiogianni   
Tuesday, 15 March 2011
We are in a period of deep capitalist crisis, where many rights acquired through tough struggle in the past years are under threat in all areas of society. One of them is the free, state-run school. The new “reforms” being introduced in Greece are putting the rights of teachers and students in the firing line too.
