 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The Democrats are fearful above all of evoking anxiety and anger, of creating a situation where broader layers of the population will react. In the face of a fascist menace, the Democrats preach quiescence. "As of last week, 13,319 children have been killed in Gaza, of whom 786 were under the age of one," said human rights expert Chris Sidoti. The attack—far and away the biggest Israeli military strike ever launched against Iran—represents a major provocation and escalation of Israel's war throughout the Middle East. The discussion addressed the global political crisis and its main expressions in the United States and Brazil, with their many parallels and profound connections. The meeting at the working-class university outlined a socialist perspective, based on the mobilisation of the working class against the Gaza genocide and imperialist war. The pro-imperialist "socialist" from Vermont argued there would be a "much better chance of changing US policy" under war criminal Kamala Harris. The right-wing Supreme Court supermajority intervened to allow the continuation of a Republican-backed program to summarily disqualify voters as suspected non-citizens. The letter is an indication of the deep concern among all layers of the American bourgeoisie of the economic and geopolitical impact of the strike. Workers voted by over 95 percent to strike, making clear their determination to fight back after years of concessions and to resist the Crown corporation's plans to use AI and other new technologies to increase worker-exploitation. Spain's worst flood in decades is a social disaster driven by the ruling elite's inability to plan policies to halt climate change, or even to devise basic disaster management plans advocated by scientists. There was genuine concern that too savage cuts would undermine global confidence in the UK economy or spark massive opposition in the working class. The strike by some 1,500 Samsung India workers was abruptly brought to an end by the CITU, the Stalinist trade union federation, after it capitulated all down the line to Tamil Nadu's DMK government and Samsung management. The opinion of economic and financial analysts both in China and internationally is that more must be done to boost consumption spending, and that unless that happens, the target growth rate for this year of "about 5 percent" will not be achieved, let alone a viable growth path for the future. Parents at Fuentes Elementary organized a demonstration to protest the closure of their children's school. Acero, the charter network, is closing seven schools this year, impacting 2,000 students and 250 jobs in primarily working class communities.
