 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The catastrophes of Wang Fuk Court and Grenfell Tower are spectacular and tragic eruptions of the miserable, and entirely preventable, world housing crisis. They are not mere excesses, nor failures of regulation, they are an inescapable part of capitalism. The UN committee found the death toll in Israeli custody to be "abnormally high and appears to have exclusively affected the Palestinian detainee population" and noted that "to date, no state officials have been held responsible or accountable for such deaths". The Israeli military fired a drone strike in Gaza and killed two children in an eastern neighborhood of Khan Yunis on Saturday. The shooting of two National Guard soldiers, one of whom has died, has become the pretext for an assault on the democratic rights of immigrants. In a predawn raid November 20, CBP agents seized two cousins from Venezuela who attend Western International High School The mass protests against the far right are significant because the AfD is being ever more openly integrated into the political establishment and substantial parts of its programme are being implemented by all the parliamentary parties. As the AfD launched a new Hitler-Youth-style organisation in Giessen, tens of thousands of young people filled the streets in defiance of police violence. This lecture traces the filing of Alan Gelfand's lawsuit against the SWP and the US government through the outcome of the motion to dismiss in June 1980. Eighty years after the unprecedented crimes of the Wehrmacht and Hitlerite fascism, the ruling class is once again pursuing a massive rearmament program that breaks with all post-war restrictions and is systematically preparing Germany for a third world war—with Russia as its main target. The protest successfully thwarted the ICE/CBP raid, despite violent assaults by the NYPD, which operates under Mamdani's re-appointed police commissioner, Jessica Tisch. Wilson made no attempt to expose or condemn the criminality of the Trump administration, including the ongoing US-NATO backed war against Russia in Ukraine and the preparation for war against Venezuela. The World Socialist Web Site and the Socialist Equality Party (Canada) unequivocally condemn these raids and charges. They represent a serious escalation of state repression aimed at criminalizing anti-war and anti-genocide dissent. The UK government aims to introduce legislation to end jury trials for all cases carrying a maximum sentence of less than five years. The fact that the JVP/NPP government rapidly caved in to the Sinhala Buddhist supremacists over the statue is a warning that it will not hesitate to resort to communal politics to divide the working class. Workers were given no forewarning, arriving at work to be told they would be made redundant, effective immediately. "It's not just the 73 people on the ground, it's the truckies, diesel mechanics, the other shops in town. People won't be spending money if there's no money to spend. And it's right on Christmas." Workers at the Gabriel Passos Refinery in Brazil say they will continue their walkout for equal pay, while some 50,000 workers marched through downtown Montreal on Saturday to protest government policies. Last week, a powerful three-day nationwide strike movement against austerity halted public services, logistics, and industrial activity across Belgium.
