 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The New York Times published yesterday a column by Paul Krugman dismissing the role of Ukrainian fascists in the mass murder of Jews and Soviet citizens during World War II and minimizing as mere "shadows" their prominence in the present NATO proxy war against Russia. Whatever the immediate causes of the dam's collapse, workers must understand the unfolding humanitarian and ecological disaster above all as an urgent warning about the immense dangers presented by the NATO war against Russia in Ukraine for workers across Europe and internationally. Notable in the campaign to commute Michael Tisius' execution were the calls from several jurors, who had convicted him, for his life to be spared. Workers have responded with disgust and anger to the decision by the unions to allow Clarios to ramp up output at the St. Joseph plant in a bid to undermine the strike. The dispute at one delivery office threatened to spread and grind delivery services across Scotland to a halt because of the determination by postal workers to defend their colleagues. The show, presented in four seasons over the course of 2018 to 2023, depicts the power struggles and moral decay bound up with the fate of a corporate-financial dynasty that wields enormous influence over politics, culture and society. One of the responsibilities of the serious writer is to go beyond momentary appearances, to get at the real motives of individuals and groups behind their public motives. What would such a writer make of the cast of characters involved in the present conflict? The rapid and disorganized character of the vote, with in-person voting only, in some cases taking placing inside UPS facilities under the eye of management, guarantees that the turnout will be artificially deflated. Computer files show that the Spanish company responsible for security at the Ecuadorian Embassy was secretly spying on Assange. The files name the client of the surveillance: "CIA." The NUJ's refusal to defend Klarenberg is of a piece with its history of abject capitulation to the government and capitalist state and is made more venal under conditions in which Britain is playing a central role in NATO's war against Russia After some 16 hours of public comment, the Democratic Party-dominated Atlanta city council voted 11-4 in favor of allocating over $30 million in public funds to the private non-profit Atlanta Police Foundation. In a motion that was filed on Friday with the US District Court in Youngstown, Ohio, Norfolk Southern made the absurd claim that they are not responsible for the derailment or obligated to pay for any of the damages caused to residents health, homes or businesses Capitalist-induced climate change is dramatically increasing the intensity and extent of wildfires across the country, impacting remote rural communities as well as major urban centers and pushing Canada's firefighting resources past their limits. In line with policies of major central banks around the world, the RBA is lifting rates to slow the economy, or even induce a recession, to crush the growing wages struggles of the working class under the banner of the need to "fight inflation." Speaking at the Shangri-La Dialogue, Albanese echoed, at times almost word for word, the aggressive message delivered by US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin. The ruling class in South Korea, as around the globe, cannot tolerate dissent as it accelerates attacks on the working class and makes preparations for war. NTEU officials told workers at the strike rally that the union would enter "intensive bargaining" in the Fair Work Commission and "you may not get everything that you want." Pseudo-left organisations at Otago University and Victoria University of Wellington are seeking to subordinate opposition to hundreds of job cuts to the Tertiary Education Union, which has a long record of imposing mass redundancies. The increasingly use of state violence against youth, peaceful protesters and workers shows that it is impossible to wage war abroad without waging class war at home.
