 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The WSWS calls for strikes and other protest actions by the working class in every country. We urge the organization of mass demonstrations in cities and emergency solidarity protests by college and high school students. Hours before Israel initiated a communications blackout of Gaza and poured troops across the border, the United States dropped dozens of bombs on what it called Iranian "proxies" in Syria as part of its escalating standoff with Tehran. Mass protests erupted around the world on Friday against the intensification of the Israeli military assault and genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The centenary of the Turkish Republic, founded on 29 October 1923 under the leadership of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, is being celebrated as the Israeli genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza threatens to escalate into war across the entire Middle East. Numerous demonstrations and protests against the Israeli government's genocidal assault on Gaza have been held since the October 7 uprising. The strike by 28,000 workers at GM and Stellantis who are still on the picket lines is in imminent danger of being shut down by the UAW bureaucracy. The summary firing of 1,200 GM workers at the weekend provoked a strike by 11,500 workers at three of the company's plants in the state of São Paulo. These events express a far wider opposition to Labour, which is seen as a single parliamentary party of war, alongside the Sunak government. The real target of the ruling-class campaign to vilify and silence Jama is the growing movement of youth and workers that has erupted against the imperialist-backed genocide in Gaza. In October 1923, the German Communist Party prepared an insurrection and then cancelled it at the last minute, prompting Leon Trotsky to characterize it as "a classic demonstration of how it is possible to miss a perfectly exceptional revolutionary situation of world-historic importance." This is an appalling episode and an entirely legitimate subject for a film, part of the history of the "blood-soaked rise to continental power" of American capitalism at the expense, in the first place, of the Native American population. Murray explained in a statement, "the abuse of special anti-terrorism powers at ports in order to seize all papers and communications of journalists is becoming commonplace." The club won enthusiastic support from students for its condemnation of Israel's genocidal assault on Palestinians and the complicity of Australian, US and world governments. Amid the relentless lies branding pro-Palestinian protesters as anti-Semites, a Melbourne judge addressed two Nazi leaders as "gentlemen" and wished them "good luck with the future." "It is essential to stop the provision of weapons to Israel with the help of dock workers in America and Israel, airport workers of Israel and other countries that helps Israel providing the destroying weapons." Police suppress workers' protests in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka; Australian union sells out dairy worker strike; Australian maritime workers continue work bans and stoppages. In her opening press conference remarks ECB president Christine Lagarde said the euro area economy remained "weak." The contract dispute highlights the financialization of public health, whereby critical information disease outbreak, the opioid crisis, and the population's general health indices can be accumulated and monopolized by giant conglomerates like Alphabet. On October 25, the International Youth and Students for Social Equality hosted a successful meeting in Chicago to discuss the ongoing Israeli genocide against the Palestinians living in Gaza, and to build a socialist opposition to war. The rally Thursday is part of a growing international movement to end the war and the decades-long oppression of the Palestinian people.
