 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The fight at Boeing requires a new strategy, based on connecting a rebellion against the union bureaucracy with a global struggle of the working class against war. Two weeks after Israel began its latest onslaught in northern Gaza, aimed at violently displacing the 400,000 Palestinians who remain there, the IDF forced the population of Jabalia refugee camp out at gunpoint amid daily massacres and deliberate starvation. The agreement meets none of our demands, which we have made abundantly clear from the start, including an immediate 40 percent pay increase and the restoration of our pensions. No amount of bureaucratic spin can hide the fact that it is a pro-company sellout. Events at the company over the last years fully attest to the fact that Eaton strikers in the US and Britain are involved not in a national but a global struggle. Declaring that her 1619 Project had been "borne out" by US political developments, Hannah-Jones employed its racialist falsifications of history to promote the campaign of Kamala Harris, while seeking to sow divisions on the basis of race within the growing movement of the working class. At the October 19 convention of the NYC-DSA, the home chapter of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, delegates passed resolutions encouraging members in "swing states" to vote "tactically" to "block Trump's election." Workers are in a political fight against the union apparatus, the Labor government and capitalism. The phoney pseudo-left "rank-and-file" group has been created to cover this up. Reeves trailed her budget cuts at last week's International Investment Summit, saying that Labour's mission of "being the most pro-business government that this country has ever seen" required "difficult choices" and "discipline on spending". Cabinet minister and JVP Politburo member Vijitha Herath told the media on October 15 that Wickremesinghe's promised wage increase would have to be revisited. Cuba has repeatedly failed to bring its electrical grid back up as a result of fuel shortages and deteriorating infrastructure, threatening a social explosion. On October 16, 37,000 workers at ten UC campuses, five medical centers and other facilities staged protests ahead of the looming expiration of their contract. Despite New Zealand and Samoan governments seeking to downplay the extent of environmental damage, the ship's sinking has raised fears of an impending ecological disaster. The fate of Queensland Labor's pro-business administration could prefigure that of the federal Labor government led by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. This open letter, also signed by WSU students, is another indication of the widespread opposition of university workers and students to the suppression of demonstrations against the US-backed Israeli genocide and wider Middle East war.
