 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. Axios reported Friday that three sources in the White House said deploying ground troops is "under serious consideration." One of the most likely scenarios is an attempt to capture Kharg Island, where some 90 percent of Iran's oil exports is processed. O'Brien's personal appearance at Mullin's hearing is a warning to workers that the union bureaucracy is aligning itself ever more openly with dictatorship, war and the repression of the working class. The California Teachers Association (CTA) has kept some 80,000 teachers across the state working under expired contracts under its fraudulent "We Can't Wait" campaign. LAUSD educators must form independent rank-and-file committees and mobilize teachers across the state in a general strike against war and in defense of public education. The four-day strike of San Francisco educators, the first in 50 years, contains critical lessons for workers seeking to defend public education. The WSWS continues to receive statements of support from workers across Canada for Will Lehman's campaign for the presidency of the UAW in the United States. Lehman is running as a socialist on a program to abolish the union bureaucracy and place power back in the hands of workers on the shop floor. Workers describe widespread support for a March 25 strike at GM's Silao Complex in Mexico as they demand a 20 percent increase in wages. Trump praised Tokyo for "stepping up" as the Takaichi government deepens its involvement in the criminal conflict. The incident provided a rare glimpse of popular anti-war sentiment that is usually blacked out by the media. Allowing US heavy bombers to fly from its Royal Air Force base in Fairford, England, and from Diego Garcia—a UK base in the Indian Ocean—has been critical to the devastating US-Israeli bombing operation against Iran. The effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz is causing major disruption to the Thai economy. The expansion of immigration detention facilities is a multibillion-dollar industry dominated by a handful of private corporations. Daphy Michel, 31, was released alone into freezing temperatures, 40 miles from home, with no family notification. Days later she was dead—still wearing the ankle monitor ICE had put on her. The Trump administration's expansion of mandatory immigration detention has resulted in illegal confinement and has turned detention facilities like North Lake in Baldwin, Michigan, into sites of mass medical neglect. Professor Paul Hunter, an expert in infectious diseases, explained: "This is… one of the greatest clusters of cases outside of Africa that I can recall." Green's book shows that, beneath the familiar myth of the reactionary Southwest, there lay a vibrant world of tenant-farmer revolt, labor militancy, and interracial socialist organizing. Every official inquiry into the Robodebt scheme's systemic cruelty to welfare recipients has now ended with all those responsible going scot-free. Workers across the US could go on strike at the end of the month when their current contract expires. The selection, which also included animations, offered some whimsical pieces, many focused on individual emotions, as well as thoughtful explorations of social and historical issues. South Korea: Samsung Electronics semiconductor workers approve strike action; India: Madhya Pradesh power workers strike for pay rise; Australia: Thousands of Victorian school teachers prepare to strike; Mater hospital nurses in Queensland strike for pay parity.
