Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. David North delivered lectures online at the invitation of Social Democracy clubs at Bilkent University and Middle East Technical University, both located in Ankara, Turkey. The lectures were delivered on February 17 and 19. Police arrested Andrew on suspicion of Misconduct in Public Office, believed to relate to emails released by the US Department of Justice showing him sharing information with convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Billionaires, CEOs and corporate attorneys have stepped down after newly released Justice Department files exposed their ties to Epstein. Despite mounting evidence, no new indictments have been issued. The Trump administration claims ad nauseam that ICE's anti-immigrant dragnet is targeting the "worst of the worst." Whether by chance or design, the detention of Armando Fernández Larios fits the bill. The Mack Trucks worker and candidate for United Auto Workers president has issued a statement supporting the Mexican auto parts workers fighting mass layoffs by US-based corporations. The United States has positioned its naval and air forces for a massive assault on Iran in the largest military buildup in the Middle East since the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The fight for democracy and to end the war in Ukraine is inseparable from the struggle to mobilize the working class in Ukraine and internationally against capitalism. Having been deprived of Labour's century-old apparatus for expelling socialists and repressing the party membership, Corbyn and his allies are endeavouring to create a new one. The death of a fascist near an event organised by France Unbowed (La France Insoumise, LFI) has triggered a right-wing rampage in France. Six years after the racist murder attack in Hanau, thousands took to the streets again on February 19 to commemorate the victims. A tenth victim has recently succumbed to his injuries. The open letter quotes Chinese artist Ai Weiwei who described what was taking place in Germany as "doing what they did in the 1930s." The artist was not criticized for her works, but for several pro-Palestinian posts on Instagram criticizing the Israeli government, including a call to boycott Israel. The deal was finalized as 31,000 Kaiser workers are on strike across California and Hawaii, underscoring the political significance of their struggle. Across Catalonia, the number of demonstrators exceeded 100,000. The total number of teachers in the region is around 90,000, indicating that substantial numbers of students and other Catalan workers supported the teachers. Union deals and enterprise agreements are enabling the Albanese Labor government's pro-corporate and pro-military restructuring of universities. The Albanese government's actions, echoing the anti-immigrant poison of One Nation, flout warnings of widespread human rights abuses in Syrian internment camps. Active across 56 countries, Veolia epitomises the subordination of vital resources and public services to the profit interests of finance capital, imposing the costs onto the working class. The District's Potomac sewage emergency stems from long‑neglected infrastructure which will be addressed through prolonged repairs and higher rates on the population and devastated health and livelihoods for River residents. Tens of thousands of Spanish doctors continue strikes over attacks on pay and conditions; Israeli port workers' stoppage over threatened job losses; transport workers in North West province, South Africa begin walkout over non-payment of wages About the WSWS The World Socialist Web Site is published by the International Committee of the Fourth International, the world Trotskyist movement, and its affiliated sections in the Socialist Equality Parties around the world.
