No to Missile Strikes Against Syria!
Last week, President Obama made the case that the U.S must carry out missile strikes against the regime of Bashar Al-Assad in Syria. Supposedly this would stop the brutal repression that Assad is carrying out against the Syrian people using chemical weapons. In fact, this has nothing to do with helping the Syrian people, and everything to do with the Obama administration’s goal of maintaining control in the Middle East.

Their Recovery is Just a Rip Off
27 March 2013, by Robert ParisTheir Recovery is Just a Rip Off
Lately we’ve been told that everything is turning around, the economy is recovering, unemployment is going down, and everything will be getting better. But when it comes to our lives, it sure seems like everything is getting worse. Work is getting harder, our bills are going up, and we are not bringing home any extra money.
In celebration of this supposed recovery, Obama and the Democrats are even talking about raising the federal minimum wage to a (...) -
The Assault on Women’s Reproductive Rights - L’attaque contre le droit des femmes
13 April 2013, by Robert ParisThe Assault on Women’s Reproductive Rights
Last week, North Dakota passed the strictest limits on abortion in the country – banning abortions once a fetal heartbeat can be detected. This is usually around six weeks or earlier and before most women even know they are pregnant. So if this law is enforced, it will likely mean a ban on all abortions in the state.
The new laws are part of a nationwide effort by religious fundamentalists to chip away at Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court (...) -

By Alex Lantier - WSWS
On Thursday, US officials announced that B-2 stealth bombers had flown from Whiteman Air Force Base in the United States to South Korea. They dropped dummy bombs on a bombing range on the island of Jik Do.

Lenin and Trotsky join forces to fight bureaucracy
‘Stop the retreat’
Lenin, in his report to the Tenth Congress of the party, made it clear that the New Economic Policy would strengthen capitalism in the countryside: ‘... the switch from the appropriation of surpluses to the tax will mean more kulaks [rich peasants] under the new system. They will appear where they could not appear before.’ [1] In his summing-up of the (...) -

After Boston bombing, Australian media escalates “war on terror”
28 April 2013, by Robert ParisAfter Boston bombing, Australian media escalates “war on terror”
By Peter Symonds
The response of the Australian media and political establishment to the state of siege imposed on Boston following the April 15 bombings is a clear indication that the ruling elites are prepared to use the same kind of anti-democratic methods in Australia. In the extensive media coverage, the unparalleled military-police lockdown of a major American city in order to hunt down a single 19-year-old youth (...)
