 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. Mexico's president issued a statement calling the incident a "terrible misfortune," but what took place was a crime that was the product of US-Mexico government policy. There is nothing to negotiate with Macron, the president of the rich who must be brought down by the escalating mass movement in the working class and the youth. The PES proposed to the Paris inter-university coordinating committee to adopt a resolution calling to bring down Macron and build a movement in the working class for a general strike. Netanyahu announced that the legislation would be "paused" to prevent "civil war". But only after negotiations with the far-right parties in his government, granting them a National Guard led by Jewish supremacistItamar Ben-Gvir. The Young Guard of the Bolshevik-Leninists in the former Soviet Union sent the following message to the meeting held by the Socialist Equality Group (Brazil) at the University of Sao Paulo on March 20. Speaking at a hearing of the Senate Appropriations defense subcommittee Tuesday, the US Navy's operations chief said the United States Navy is currently building 56 new warships and has contracted the building of 76 more, as part of a massive military buildup targeting China. Although the union is now run by Shawn Fain and his "Members United" faction, the UAW is maintaining the ban on the WSWS that was first imposed by Fain's predecessors. Convention delegates overwhelmingly rejected or prevented votes on resolutions calling for cost-of-living increases, opposition to tiers in electric vehicle plants and the rights of academic workers. Students and young people need to take a hard look at the society in which we live. The orientation must not be to the Democratic Party or any faction of the ruling class but to the international working class. A former teacher gave powerful remarks at last weekend's meeting of the West Coast Educators Rank-and-File Committee, held to discuss the way forward after the three-day strike by LA public school teachers. The Cook County commissioner, Brandon Johnson, is seeking to use his affiliation with the Chicago Teachers Union to suggest that he will defend the working class. Actually, his role as a CTU official means the direct opposite. While authorities, after days of inaction and mixed-messages, claim the water is safe to drink, one of the chemicals was also released in the East Palestine, Ohio derailment. The cause of the explosion has not been officially confirmed, though evidence points strongly to a gas leak. The speakers' central criticism of the AUKUS military pact was that it undermines Australia's "national interests"—that is, economic and strategic interests of Australian imperialism, including in the South Pacific and other parts of the region. One worker said: "I think it's a good idea to have an international movement for the working class against war and for democratic rights, for workers to unite, it makes sense." Fed vice chair Michael Barr told a Senate committee hearing the extent of the SVB bank run was significantly larger than previously reported and that after $42 billion was withdrawn on March 9 $100 billion was lined up to leave the next day. The explosion that sent one worker to the hospital with burns comes after the company was hit with numerous citations for safety violations. The PIT-CNT and other unions held a limited general strike March 23 while 500 workers at Maui Health are continuing their two month strike after voting down another management offer. The developing ties between Tokyo and Seoul are part of a US push to forge alliances throughout the Indo-Pacific region in preparation for war against China. The offer follows six days of behind-closed-doors "intensive talks" between the UK government and the education unions.
