 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. In a massive and unprovoked assault, the United States launched a sneak attack on Iran, dropping the most powerful non-nuclear bunker-buster bombs ever used in combat on Iranian nuclear energy facilities. The Israeli military is carrying out continuous killings of Palestinian aid seekers, including an air strike on Friday that murdered 25 people who had gathered in Central Gaza in hopes of receiving desperately needed food. Speaking in Fort Worth, Texas on Sunday, Bernie Sanders did not call for strikes or mass action to stop the long-planned US-led imperialist war against Iran, which he blamed solely on Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. Hundreds of thousands protested in London on Saturday. Organisers again directed the determination of those attending into dead-end demands that the warmonger and genocide apologist in chief Prime Minister Keir Starmer pursue a peace policy. A 15-year veteran reviewed the record of fatal accidents and severe injuries and the company-union efforts to conceal the conditions that led to the death of Adams. The overwhelming vote to strike expresses deep militancy while the UFCW bureaucracy, terrified of this momentum, is working to sabotage the struggle through legal maneuvers and staged theatrics. More than 2 billion workers worldwide were in informal employment in 2024, or nearly 60 percent of all workers on the planet. Labour's share of global GDP fell from 53 percent in 2014 to 52.4 percent in 2024. Economic growth has almost completely stalled in all sectors of the economy while inflation continues unabated.

Brian Wilson and the band he founded, the Beach Boys, made an indelible mark on American popular music. The ruling gives the go-ahead for a stepped-up assault on the wages, conditions and democratic rights of building workers, but it also means those who want to fight the administration can no longer be held back with the lie that all they can do is wait for the court's verdict. The WSWS has received statements and a video from workers in Germany who stand in solidarity with the resistance to Donald Trump's attempts to erect a military dictatorship in the US. Public school teachers will join a rally in Brisbane on Tuesday against a proposed state government three-year agreement that cuts real wages and further erodes working conditions. The much-publicised memoir by New Zealand's former prime minister uses empty platitudes about the importance of "kindness" and "empathy" to cover up the right-wing record of her Labour Party government from 2017 to 2023. Supreme Court rejects challenge to Miranda ruling; State of emergency in India; Korean War begins; French and British troops massacre Chinese protesters. The votes on Canada Post's "best and final" offers will be administered by the Canadian Industrial Relations Board, an unelected body repeatedly used by the government to illegalize workers' struggles, including last year's month-long postal workers' strike.
