 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The International Committee of the Fourth International unequivocally denounces the Netanyahu government's declaration of war on the Palestinian people following the uprising in Gaza against the Israeli occupation. The sellout contract at Mack faces overwhelming opposition among rank-and-file workers. The Toledo Jeep Rank-and-File Committee was founded last week by workers at the Stellantis Toledo Jeep Assembly Complex in Ohio. To initiate its commemoration of the centenary of the founding of the Left Opposition on October 15, 1923, the WSWS is re-publishing an editorial by David North on the 70th anniversary of the founding of the Left Opposition. This letter, sent by Leon Trotsky on October 8, 1923, to members of the Central Committee and Central Control Commission, was one of the most important documents that led to the emergence of the Left Opposition. With no clear solution to the impasse in the House of Representatives at hand, Washington's political breakdown is eroding confidence within ruling classes around the world in US imperialism's ability to crush a growing insurgency of the oppressed masses in the Middle East as well as an emerging mass movement of workers in the centers of world capitalism, including the US. The new bills are aimed at vastly strengthening the repressive powers of the president and his government to suppress working-class opposition to its IMF-dictated attacks on jobs, wages and social conditions. In his 31-page report on the shooting, which contained no photographs or video, Mountain Judicial Circuit District Attorney George Christian ruled the police killing of Manuel Paez Terán "objectively reasonable." With its spirit of democratic inclusion, its strangeness, its genuine multiculturalism and its sense of community, Demme's Stop Making Sense was an implicit, although elliptical, rejection of Reaganite reaction. López Obrador increasingly protects the military from culpability in the students' disappearances and its coverup Two months after Spain's July's inconclusive snap general election, Pedro Sánchez, Spain's acting prime minister, was named to try to form a government. The Voice is a top-down initiative, birthed in the corridors of power without any involvement from the vast mass of oppressed Aboriginal people. "The referendum is a cover for the conflicts between classes. Race is used to cover over class." The day before Mack Trucks workers voted down his contract, UAW President Shawn Fain attended a mutual aid benefit with the Democrats. "The teachers are rallying together, trying to support each other and the students are walking out," a teacher told the WSWS. "That's pretty neat, how social media and social justice work together." One year after being anti-democratically disaffiliated by the student union, the re-establishment of a genuine socialist, anti-war voice club at one of Australia's "sandstone" universities marks a significant development. This column profiles important historical events which took place during this week, 25 years ago, 50 years ago, 75 years ago and 100 years ago. The government's targeting of Lee Jae-myung is meant to intimidate rival sections of the ruling class while also to prepare repressive measures directed at the working class. The German industrial union IG Metall and its works councils at Volkswagen (VW) are always ready to sacrifice the jobs, wages and rights of the workforce upon the altar of "competitiveness" and "return on investment." If, however, their own six-figure salaries are on the line, they defend them by every means possible. Cassidy's oppositional posturing is aimed at suppressing, not leading a rank-and-file rebellion against the pro-company Unifor apparatus of which he himself is a longstanding member. No to the amendment of Germany's Postal Act! Build action committees independent of the Verdi union!
