 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The drumbeat for mass repression includes a threat to call out the National Guard to occupy the US capital. Israel's national security cabinet approved a plan Friday to take over Gaza City, effectively occupying the entirety of Gaza in preparation for its annexation by Israel and the "establishment of an alternative civil administration." On August 7, Genoa dockworkers blocked the transit of the Saudi Saudi ship Bahri Yanbu. A new wave of public unrest has begun to sweep Ukraine. As in the two world wars, German imperialism is once again pursuing predatory economic and geopolitical interests: control of Ukraine, the subordination of Eastern Europe to a Berlin-dominated EU, and the subjugation of Russia. While documenting hundreds of abuse cases across Trump's ICE, BOP, and military facilities, Sen. Ossoff's investigation functions as damage control for a Democratic Party complicit in building and funding the repressive apparatus. The operation is an extension of Operation Vala Umgodi that began with the Stilfontein massacre in January, where 90 miners died after police surrounded an abandoned mine, cutting off food supplies and forcing them to the surface. Workers in Canada, Australia and Turkey gave statements in support of the investigation into the death of Stellantis Dundee Engine worker Ronald Adams Sr. last April. The effort to remove Fain is no democratic revolt from below. It is a cynical factional maneuver by officials who share full responsibility for Fain's crimes. In a desperate bid to arrest the rapid erosion of US imperialism's global economic and geopolitical power, Trump is threatening, bullying and attacking Washington's ostensible allies, no less than those it has long identified as its strategic adversaries. The US tariff on Sri Lanka will exacerbate the country's economic crisis and the already huge IMF-dictated burdens on the working class. The letter opposing the proscription of Palestine Action (PA) as a terrorist organisation has 300 signatories including human rights lawyer Sir Geoffrey Bindman KC, filmmaker Mike Leigh and writers Gillian Slovo and Michael Rosen. The appeal and open letter reflect the shock and horror of millions in Germany, but such appeals to the government are without effect. What way forward for postal workers after the rejection of Canada Post's concessions-laden contract? The contract rejection must become the launching pad for a renewed fight based on an entirely new strategy—one that breaks the stranglehold of the CUPW bureaucracy and mobilizes the immense social power of the entire working class. Amid the government's sweeping attacks on the basic rights of the working class, the changes to electoral law could disenfranchise over 100,000 voters. On Wednesday, up to 50,000 public school teachers joined what is being described as the largest teachers' strike in the state's history. Studies indicate that many classrooms have inadequate ventilation and exceed recommended levels of carbon dioxide and other toxic substances. India: Haryana doctors and healthcare workers oppose electronic tracking system; Telugu film industry workers on strike for better wages; Pakistan: Power loom workers protest Punjab government's minimum wage; Australia: Elevator workers strike in NSW and Western Australia.
