Imperialist Aggression Intensifies as Global Working Class Resistance Grows
By KyleCommunist | September 10, 2024

From Palestine to the United States, from Germany to Sudan, the contradictions of late-stage capitalism are becoming increasingly apparent. This week's news highlights the ongoing struggle against Zionist colonialism, the rise of fascist forces in Europe, and the resilience of workers' movements in the heart of the imperialist core.

- Press Release: Israeli army kills American International Solidarity Movement volunteer during demonstration in Beita, Nablus:
The Israeli security services have designated the West Bank as a second combat zone after Gaza, effectively placing Israel at war on three fronts.
âWe were peacefully demonstrating alongside Palestinians against the colonisation of their land, and the illegal settlement of Evyatar. The situation escalated when the Israeli army began to fire tear gas and live ammunition, forcing us to retreat. We were standing on the road, about 200 meters from the soldiers, with a sniper clearly visible on the roof. Our fellow volunteer was standing a bit further back, near an olive tree with some other activists. Despite this, the army intentionally shot her in the head.This is just another example of the decades of impunity granted to the Israeli government and army, bolstered by the support of the US and European governments, who are complicit in enabling genocide in Gaza. Palestinians have suffered far too long under the weight of colonization. We will continue to stand in solidarity and honor the martyrs until Palestine is free.â
Beita is a village in the West Bank where just weeks ago Amado Sison, another American volunteer, was struck by live ammunition in the back of the leg.

- [Instagram] That liberals waste their time attempting to distinguish between Democrat and Republican policies in Israel-Palestine is absurd and a tragedy for Palestinians who are on the receiving end of our empire. The only actual difference is the public relations and rhetoric used to garner electoral support.Democrats need people thinking they care; Republicans promise they wonât.
- [Instagram] âThis action was completed because the Congregation Beth El of Montgomery County in BETHESDA MD, one of the most deeply Zionist locales on occupied Turtle Island, has espoused dangerous and terroristic colonial propaganda about the false and illegitimate rapist colony known as Israel. It has also hosted many fundraisers and events to give financial backing to the illegitimate rapist occupation and its despicable terror group known as the IOF. It is but a small action to make them understand that we know who they are. Anyone who supports the Z entity supports their devilish genocidal and rapist tendencies. No peace until the land is liberated, until settlers are punished, and until the land is free.
- To those who might say that targeting a synagogue is antisemitic, you must understand that once any place that considers itself âholyâ aligns itself with a terroristic, genocidal, rapist, colonial movement set on decimating an indigenous population, then it ceases any sacredness. It is a desolate and despicable place. Down with Zionism. Down with the Z entity. Long Live Palestine.â
