 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The University of Michigan unveiled a proposal for a new administration policy that could be used to effectively prohibit public protests on campus. It is part of an escalating nationwide and global crackdown on opposition to Israel's genocide in Gaza. Given the undeniable fact that Israel has systematically blocked aid deliveries into Gaza, and massacred Palestinians trying to access food from the few shipments that have made it through, the Court's statement implicitly accuses Israel of committing genocidal actions. The protest was a significant expression of the intense ongoing opposition, in particular among young people, to the US-backed Israeli genocide of the Palestinians, which is now approaching its seventh month. Officials with the NTSB and the Unified Command confirmed some of the 56 containers, or 764 tons, of hazardous material the M/V Dali was carrying when it crashed into the bridge had been punctured and is leaking. In an interview with CBS News on Wednesday evening, Vicky Stokes, mother of deceased former Boeing employee and whistleblower John Barnett, said she holds the airline manufacturer responsible for her son's death. The diplomatic flare-up in Latin America reflects the maneuvers of ruling class factions in response to the US-NATO war drive. The scandal is fundamentally the product of the TİP's unprincipled collaboration with the CHP, a pro-NATO, right-wing bourgeois party. Education Minister Bettina Stark-Watzinger plans to introduce lessons in war for pupils. To this end, "young officers" would visit schools. This exchange is a highly revealing expression of the bureaucracy's contempt for the workers they claim to represent. They defend not the rights of workers but the so-called "right" of management to do whatever it wants. Stellantis is seeking to liquidate workers' jobs through "a voluntary incentivized exit." Sudan faces famine, displacement, economic breakdown and an almost total absence of international aid. The government, virtually bankrupt, barely functions. Gerrard's assertion is part of the campaign by the political establishment in Australia to normalise COVID-19 with the claim that Long COVID is no different to the long-term symptoms of seasonal influenza. Workers and young people should not be taken in by the utterly hypocritical posturing of Labour leader Chris Hipkins, who leads a party of big business and imperialist war, which is responsible for the worsening social crisis. People under 18 will be banished from the streets of the Central Australian town after dark, in a harsh authoritarian move that has been met with bipartisan support at territory and federal level. In the latest in a string of statements and actions directed against China, US treasury secretary Janet Yellen issued a warning to it not to flood the world with cheap clean energy products that would distort global markets. The new legislation also creates a nine-member "Fast Food Council" with the authority to annually increase wages by the lower of the Consumer Price Index or 3.5 percent, guaranteeing that workers continue to receive cuts in real pay each year. The deplorable conditions for both nurses and patients that provoked the longest healthcare strike in Massachusetts history have only worsened, exposing the rotten character of the contract pushed through by the MNA to end the strike. Last Sunday, some 350 artists and cultural workers took part in an action outside the main entrance of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Strikes across all sectors in Finland against austerity and right to strike extended to four weeks, but unions reduce the number of workers called out; general strike on West Bank after Israeli army kills 10 Palestinians among hundreds murdered since October 7; Kenyan doctors' national stoppage continues into third week over low pay and poor conditions Public meetings held this month by the Socialist Equality Party and International Youth and Students for Social Equality provoked important discussion among workers and young people on the campaign needed to free WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange. The International Youth and Students for Social Equality (IYSSE) at the University of Michigan (UM) condemns the latest moves by the administration to intimidate and silence opposition to the US/Israeli genocide in Gaza.
