 Dear reader, Here are the latest articles published today on the World Socialist Web Site. The war that began on February 28 is the culmination of more than 80 years of American imperialist intervention in Iran and cannot be understood apart from that history. On Tuesday, as US President Donald Trump declared that the United States had "won" its undeclared and illegal war against Iran and claimed negotiations are ongoing, US media reports made clear that the military buildup targeting the country is only expanding. Media reports show a direct connection between the timing of lucrative investment bets and the pronouncements of President Trump on military decisions about the war against Iran. Under the escalating drive of American militarism, the same workers that the ruling class demands build its warships at breakneck speed are denied wages that keep pace with inflation, affordable healthcare or any meaningful retirement security. What has been accepted on a de facto basis by the Unite apparatus—including the axing of the WRCO role-- must be challenged by rank-and-file workers to prevent a final sell-out. A core element of Amazon's operations is the Delivery Service Partner (DSP) program—a sprawling network of nominally independent subcontractors through which Amazon controls the lives of hundreds of thousands of delivery drivers without, it claims, employing a single one of them. Contract faculty, highly exploited full-time non-tenure-track educators, are demanding higher salaries, raises that exceed inflation, academic freedom, job security, subsidized housing and protection against artificial intelligence in one of the most expensive cities in the world. The Chavista regime's sweeping overhaul under Acting President Delcy Rodríguez marks the consolidation of the US‑orchestrated regime change operation. The closure, which Trump said is to coincide with the nation's celebrations of its 250th anniversary of independence, comes as artists and performers cancel events at the national cultural institution of the United States capital. JBS workers in Brazil, the US and other countries are all subordinated to a single regime of exploitation for the benefit of the same international financial oligarchy, and united by the same objective class interests. This is the second major incident at a US refinery in the past five months, following an explosion at the El Segundo Chevron refinery which rocked much of the Los Angeles area last October. The G7 statement marks the European imperialist powers' final departure from international law in favour of the principle that "might makes right." The two imperialist powers are moving to establish a combined "Anzac force" that will support US-led wars and dominate impoverished Pacific countries. Stoppages at the University of Newcastle and University of Technology Sydney show the need for a unified struggle against the Albanese government's funding cuts and pro-corporate restructuring. Your Party Scotland's founding conference voted to create an "autonomous nation" Your Party Scotland and to campaign for Scottish separatism in upcoming elections. Saturday's Together Alliance march in London against the far right shields Labour and blocks any effective struggle by the working class against a capitalist system hurtling to World War III. Staff at 42 care facilities in Nova Scotia have now authorized strike action by margins averaging 95 percent.
