 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. In the face of mounting climate change-induced natural disasters and evidence of runaway global warming, capitalist governments and corporations have abandoned any pretense to be fighting climate change. Over the weekend, masked and heavily armed federal immigration agents, led by Customs and Border Protection commander Gregory Bovino, abducted and assaulted immigrants and citizens. "I genuinely think that the Post Office feels that the American people want their mail at all costs, and I think that that is not correct. I think that the American people would rather have their mail tomorrow and have everybody safe." A report by the Gaza Government Media Office documents 282 violations of the Gaza cease fire by the Israeli military between October 10 and November 10, exposing the Trump-brokered "peace plan" as an imperialist rebranding of genocide and ethnic cleansing in the Zionist-occupied Palestinian territories. The declaration that the mass murderer Suharto is a national hero is a statement of intent by the capitalist class and should be treated by the working class in every country as a serious warning. On Thursday, a tanker truck in a parking lot at the Holiday Inn in Weatherford, Oklahoma leaked a substantial portion of its 25,000 pounds of anhydrous ammonia gas, causing a mass evacuation of the neighborhood and sending dozens to local hospitals. The Trump administration has declared war on libraries, universities, cultural institutions, historical sites, museums and individual scholars. The drawing once again of even the remotest parts of Europe into the rapidly escalating worldwide struggle between the major powers for markets, raw materials and spheres of influence underlines that the working class in every country must take up the fight to construct a global anti-war movement.

Health Secretary Streeting is priming a leadership bid to replace Prime Minister Starmer, with Labour's support polling at record low levels. In the face of this offensive, the BMA leadership has repeatedly sought a compromise where none is on offer.

Under Takaichi, Tokyo has moved to accelerate its remilitarization in alliance with the US under the pretext of "collective self-defense." After cancelling a strike, the union held rallies to appeal to the right-wing Premier David Crisafulli to "intervene in our ongoing pay dispute."
