 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The Democratic Party is spending millions of dollars on lawyers, operatives and propaganda to ensure workers and youth will have no choice in the 2024 US presidential election except Biden and Trump. The resolution would have given the United Nations' imprimatur to the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza, specifying conditions for "ongoing and future operations" by the Israeli military. Regardless of the immediate culprit of Friday's terrorist attack, it is clear that it took place in a context of an expanding and escalating war against Russia by the imperialist powers. The Flint school board is stonewalling teachers' demands instead offering to renegotiate an existing settlement to force through further budget cuts. For its part, the union has refused to honor the teachers' strike vote and is participating in talks. On Friday Stellantis announced further cost-cutting, stating that 400 US salaried employees in engineering, technology and software will be terminated as of March 31, about 2 percent of its salaried workforce. Pye, 59, was put to death by way of lethal injection in Georgia on Wednesday evening after all of his legal efforts, including a request for stay of execution by the US Supreme Court, were exhausted. Texas is openly defying federal constitutional authority to an extent without precedent since the civil rights struggles that resulted in the end of Jim Crow apartheid and school segregation. For all the attempts to claim that visit improved relations, none of the underlying issues were resolved as Canberra aligns with Washington in its war plans against Beijing. Backed by the Biden administration, the defence and foreign affairs ministers of the UK and Australia signed far-reaching new military and intelligence agreements in Adelaide on Friday. Labor, working with Zionists and police agencies, is trying to prohibit discussion of the Gaza genocide in a working-class area of Sydney with a major Middle Eastern and Islamic population. The article consists of a miserable attempt to deny the established fact that former president Bolsonaro and the Brazilian military top brass actively prepared a fascist coup d'état. The fact that the transnational corporations see the policies of the fascist Milei and the PT's Lula as alternate means of securing their interests shows that the "Pink Tide" poses no real alternative to the turn toward dictatorship in Latin America. Studies suggesting that even a brief period of rough sleeping can have an enormous impact on health and life expectancy are of particular concern amid a rise in homelessness, including among people with paid jobs. No attempts were made by management or the UAW to account for employees even though four different fire departments responded to the emergency. With its eyes on the wider Pacific, Japanese imperialism is asserting its interests as it did prior to and during World War II and ramping up preparations for a US-led war with China. The writers advocacy group is seeking to conciliate critics over its silence on the murder of writers, journalists and artists in Gaza by the Israeli regime. India: Bengaluru information technology workers demonstrate over jobs and work rights; Bellsonica auto parts factory workers protest in Manesar; Sri Lankan customs workers impose bans; Australia: Transgrid electricians in NSW and ACT strike for pay rise. Their overriding message is that the critical experience of class struggle in post-war Britain was essentially a tragic misunderstanding. However heroic and self-sacrificing the miners' actions over their year-long strike, the escalation was regrettable, and moderation could have ensured the industry's managed decline.
