 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. On Tuesday, a degraded spectacle took place on the National Mall in Washington D.C. The "March for Israel" will be recorded in history as a rally for ethnic cleansing and genocide. The Israeli government's genocidal onslaught on the Palestinians in Gaza intensified Tuesday with an all-out bombardment launched on the Al-Shifa Hospital, the largest in Gaza. There is nothing to do with "hate" or criminal activity involved in the banners depicted by the Met. The two women carrying them, already identified by the media, as Marieha Mohsin Hussain and Kate Varnfield, must and will be resolutely defended. Workers have dismissed claims by local officials that 85 percent voted "yes," given the broad opposition to the deal. The Mack Truck Workers Rank-and-File Committee is calling for a no vote by the largest possible margin on this garbage contract. But to decide what to do next, it is necessary to understand how we got into this situation. The greatest fear in ruling circles is that the growing anti-war movement might link up with the growing ferment in the working class as the union officials are increasingly losing control of the situation. Actors have made sacrifices for months, losing work, income and possibly homes or apartments, so that union officials could sell them down the river in secret negotiations. YouTube and other social media platforms have intensified censorship measures against the left-wing and anti-war news publisher MintPress News. The social democratic health minister has shared a right-wing extremist video that justifies the murder of Palestinian children and at the same time, trivialises the extermination of 6 million Jews by the Nazis. While the AMA leaders claim they must observe "neutrality" in relation to the Israel war on Gaza, they had no such scruples in condemning Russia for its war with Ukraine. The Supreme Court of the United States issued a 15-page code of conduct on Monday as part of broader efforts by the ruling political establishment to rebuild confidence in the judicial body that has been exposed as a center of corruption and political influence. US government debt is now more than $33 trillion and rising and stands at more than 120 percent of GDP. Washington is making it plain there is no line it will not cross in attempting to enforce its hegemony in the Indo-Pacific region. A recent article in FreightWaves explicitly states that O'Brien and his negotiators likely understood that jobs would be lost due the company's move to automation and to lower package volumes but kept this from the membership The meeting, hosted by the Socialist Equality Group and International Youth and Students for Social Equality, discussed the genocide unfolding in Gaza and the way forward for the mass international protests to stop Israel's slaughter and the developing Third World War. "I believe that governments and politicians are looking at economic interests only—that part of the world is full of gas and oil—and they don't care about anything or anyone else." Horwath's green-lighting of third party strike-breaking initiatives should come as no surprise to workers, especially to those in the ATU. The NDP claims to defend workers' rights, but it has repeatedly been complicit in attacking them. Faced with significant budget deficits, colleges across the US have announced mass layoffs, program eliminations and school closures.
