										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>You may not know much about the Islamic Republic of Iran. If you listen to the propaganda rags of the ruling class, your idea of the Islamic Republic is probably one where the people despise their government, where despotic theocrats oppress women and LGBTQ+ people, and where the average Iranian yearns for the freedom of US bombs and missiles. You should never let anyone tell you who your enemy is without looking into the matter yourself. You see, the ruling class of the US empire benefit from you believing these things. That ruling class that was so recently exposed as a nest of pedophiles, eugenicists, white and Jewish supremacists, and influence-peddling monsters, control the messages coming out of the news media because they own the news media. (Jeff Bezos owns the Washington Post, and the same family has owned the New York Times since 1896). They badly want you to support the wanton annihilation of school girls (the Minab school attack), universities, bridges, power plants, and medical research centers. Make no mistake, the US ruling class has no interest in the &#8220;rights&#8221; of Iranians. The extent of US military solidarity with the people of Iran is simply this: the US capitalists want better access to oil, the US capitalists want to protect their crumbling vassal state in Palestine, and the US ruling class will use any justification it can cook up to permit it to re-establish hegemony over West Asia.</p>



<p>What are the <em>facts</em> of the US war against the Iranian people? First, you should know a little bit about the history of the Islamic Republic of Iran and its relations with the US; the Iranians certainly do. Public memory in the US usually begins with the 1979 hostage crisis. Iranian memory goes back quite a bit further.</p>



<p>In 1921, a cavalry officer named Reza Khan led a coup backed by the United Kingdom and overthrew the Qajar Dynasty of Persia. After World War II, the US started its Cold War against the USSR and the People&#8217;s Republic of China. In 1951, the people of Iran elected Mohammad Mossaddegh as their Prime Minister. He embarked on a program of nationalization of the Iranian oil fields, which had until then been controlled by and for the profit of a British firm, the Anglo-Iranian Oil Corporation.</p>



<p>The United Kingdom wanted to invade Iran to secure to oil. After all, the entire global economy had switched over to running on oil by 1951 and every Western military power needed oil to run their war machines. They couldn&#8217;t let <em>Iran</em> decide who to sell oil to. They might pick the wrong people! US president Harry Truman convinced the British not to act. At the same time, US diplomats assured the Mossaddegh government that the US was their staunch ally. Behind the scenes, the US was preparing to move against Mossaddegh because the US ruling class was afraid that the Soviets might get their hands on Iranian oil.</p>



<p>In 1953, the CIA and British intelligence agents from MI6 orchestrated a coup. They had the Shah issue arrest orders to detain and arrest Mossaddegh and the cabinet of ministers. The initial coup failed and Mossaddegh rallied the masses of Iran to his side. The US sheltered fleeing army officers in CIA stations across Iran, then unleashed them to counter Mossaddegh. He was placed under house arrest for the rest of his life.</p>



<p>The Shah needed to shore up his position, since his people despised him for what he had done to their elected champion. So, the US provided the Shah with a nuclear program. They bulked up the Iranian army with massive US weapons sales: the Shah was authorized to purchase almost any non-nuclear US weapons system, and spent over $4.3 billion on sales from the US in 1974. Most importantly, though, the CIA built the Shah&#8217;s secret police, SAVAK. They trained this brutal force and, under CIA tutelage, SAVAK tortured and murdered political dissidents until the Shah was overthrown.</p>



<p>In 1979, after nearly three decades of abuse, the people of Iran rose up against the Pahlavi monarchy. They were led by a coalition of Communists, socialists, and Islamic revolutionaries. The revolution in Iran took on an Islamic character because mosques were one of the few places where people could organize without being dragged away by the Shah&#8217;s secret police. Islam in Iran thus took on a revolutionary role, rather than a reactionary one such as in Saudi Arabia.</p>



<p>The Islamic Republic today is a Parliamentary Republic with a unique element: the role of the <em>velayat-e-faqih</em>, or the oversight of a political &#8220;guardian&#8221; and jurist of the faith &#8211; the &#8220;Supreme Leader&#8221; of Iran. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (the IRGC you may have heard about recently) is a secular branch of the Republican government. Uppermost in the political philosophy of every branch of the Islamic Republic is the principle that the Iranian people should never again be pawns of the Western powers.</p>



<p>Since 1979, the Islamic Republic has been the target of punishing US sanctions. The US has consistently attempted to exert what it calls &#8220;maximum pressure&#8221; &#8211; the same strategy they are applying to Cuba today and that they applied to Chile in the 1970s &#8211; to isolate the Iranian economy. This has resulted in countless deaths, and subjected everyone in Iran to collective punishment for daring to overthrow the US-installed dictatorship.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Fight Against the zionists</h2>



<p>The crimes committed by the zionist state in Palestine are not new, but their full extent has only now become undeniable to the US public. Since it was declared, the Islamic Republic has been opposed to the continuing genocide committed by the zionists and has worked tirelessly to assist the Palestinian resistance. This, more than anything else, has been the reason for the <em>continued</em> hostility of the US ruling class against Iran.</p>



<p>The US <em>requires</em> its forward base in the zionist territory for several reasons. It is the &#8220;unsinkable aircraft carrier&#8221; of US power projection. It keeps the Gulf vassal stats like Saudi Arabia in line, ensures that oil can continue to flow, operates as a relief valve for domestic US class-strife, and helps the totally enmeshed US-zionist tech and computer economy remain afloat. It is, in essence, an extra &#8220;frontier&#8221; from which land can be stolen to reward corporate enclaves and individual technical specialists.</p>



<p>In the fight for the freedom of Palestine, the Iranian government has been the strongest ally of the Resistance. In a very real sense, it is impossible to stand up for Palestine without standing <em>against</em> the United States. That includes their aggression against Iran.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Are We the Villains?</h2>



<p>The fact of the matter is, from a world-historical perspective &#8211; from the perspective of anyone who isn&#8217;t a white American &#8211; the United States is unequivocally and without question the global &#8220;bad guy&#8221; and has been since at least the end of World War II. The US government is the largest state sponsor of terror in the world. Everybody other than us already knows this! There is no government the US won&#8217;t overthrow in the quest for profit or &#8220;containment.&#8221; Whatever internal criticisms you have of the Iranian government and how it treats its people, never fear &#8211; the US government treats people worse.</p>



<p>Most non-aligned states feel the need to develop nuclear weapons to stop the US from invading them. There&#8217;s no need to look back in the history books, just look at how Washington treated the sovereign states of Venezuela and Cuba this year! For what? The acquisition of Venezuelan oil, to cut off the flow of oil to China, and to open up Cuba to American investors and hotel magnates.</p>



<p>But let&#8217;s walk through the latest timeline of the US interventions in Iran and try to see if there&#8217;s any kind of pattern:</p>



<p><strong>July 2015. </strong>A comprehensive nuclear enrichment agreement is reached between Iran, the US, and the UN in exchange for the lifting of sanctions.</p>



<p><strong>May 8, 2019. </strong>Washington unilaterally repudiates the deal.</p>



<p><strong>Jan 3, 2020. </strong>Washington kills Iranian general Qassem Soleimani with a missile strike for the crime of being anti-zionist and Iranian.</p>



<p><strong>March 7, 2025. </strong>Washington says they want to restart talks.</p>



<p><strong>April 12, 2025. </strong>First round of talks are held between intermedaries.</p>



<p><strong>April 19, 2025. </strong>Second round of talks.</p>



<p><strong>April 26, 2025. </strong>Third round of talks are held, the first where experts from both sides are present.</p>



<p><strong>May 11, 2025. </strong>Fourth round of talks are held.</p>



<p><strong>May 23, 2025. </strong>Fifth round of talks are held. Both US and Iran report that there has been progress.</p>



<p><strong>June 13, 2025. </strong>The zionists bomb Iran while talks are ongoing.</p>



<p><strong>June 22, 2025. </strong>The United States bombs Iran during the talks.</p>



<p><strong>July 25, 2025. </strong>Iran and European authorities meet.</p>



<p><strong>Sept. 9, 2025. </strong>Iran and the UN nuclear watchdog strike a deal.</p>



<p><strong>Sept 28, 2025. </strong>The UN places new sanctions on Iran.</p>



<p><strong>Jan. 13, 2026. </strong>Washington calls off all further talks.</p>



<p><strong>Feb. 6, 2026. </strong>Washington restarts talks.</p>



<p><strong>Feb. 26, 2026. </strong>Washington and Iran may have a deal.</p>



<p><strong>Feb 28, 2026. </strong>While talks are ongoing, Washington and the zionists pummel Iran with missiles and kill the Supreme Leader and his wife without warning.</p>



<p>The Islamic Republic negotiated in good faith; it reached a deal not once, but repeatedly and it was purportedly very close to a deal on February 26. Their counterparts in Washington used the cover of talks not once but twice to strike Iran. So, who, then, are the villains here?</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">We Have the Same Enemies</h2>



<p>The US ruling class — the capitalists — who control all government policy, who decide when and where the country goes to war, and who engage in the most hideous acts of pedophilia, rape, abuse, and even murder; those people who set up and run the US economy, who profit from your misery, who set the police on you, who pilfer your wages and retirement funds, who have been turning the screws on their economic vise since before you were born, who crashed the economy in 2008 and got away with it&#8230; <em>those</em> people are our enemy. If the people of Iran have grievances against their government, it is their fight to carry out when and how they choose. Right <em>now</em>, the might of the US imperial war machine is bearing down on the Islamic Republic of Iran&#8230; and the Islamic Republic is winning. Not on the abstract level of vague principles, but on the very real level of fact, Iran&#8217;s resistance to US imperialism is weakening our <em>collective </em>enemy.</p>



<p>We should be overjoyed that our oppressors are being bloodied by their ill-conceived attacks. The US strikes on Iran have not weakened it at all; they have made it stronger, unified the people of Iran, and placed command of the Iranian nation in the hands of the secular IRGC.</p>



<p>Iran is striking our enemies for us, dealing blow after blow to the imperialist economy, exhausting the imperialist war materiel with their strategy, while we sit idly by and do nothing.</p>



<p>It comes down to each of us to begin organizing local circles to support the world war on imperialism that is now being waged. We must gather all sympathetic people in our locality and plan ways to slow down or degrade the war machine that is firing missiles and dropping bombs <em>in our names</em>. As we do this, we must not lose sight of the true enemy; it is also up to each of us to combat the ruling class propaganda that asks you to be thrilled at the drama of a downed US pilot. <em>What was that pilot doing there? </em>Do not forget: the enemy of the world is our enemy too.</p>

<p>On February 24, 2026, the goblin-king of the high petty bourgeoisie and the upper ranks of the settler labor aristocracy took the podium in the heart of the Burgerreich to deliver his paean to US military and economic power. Amidst what has become an all–too–typical celebration of US empire, the chief executive officer of the imperialist plunder machine delivered a few remarks that we should pay attention to. Yes, his rambling, often unfocused speech was full of little misrepresentations and outright lies,<sup data-fn="2d1cb47e-929e-42c5-bc8a-3cd4df91dc31" class="fn"><a href="#2d1cb47e-929e-42c5-bc8a-3cd4df91dc31" id="2d1cb47e-929e-42c5-bc8a-3cd4df91dc31-link">1</a></sup> but more importantly, it was filled with <em>signals </em>about class policy.</p>



<p>We have to remember the intended audience for big events like this. It’s televised and scrutinized by the politically active members of the US labor aristocracy and petty bourgeoisie and sometimes analyzed by the ruling class of other countries for signs about presidential plans.<sup data-fn="46c79bdd-5bf3-4e60-b236-110f92c01d82" class="fn"><a href="#46c79bdd-5bf3-4e60-b236-110f92c01d82" id="46c79bdd-5bf3-4e60-b236-110f92c01d82-link">2</a></sup> This isn&#8217;t the imperialist bourgeoisie talking to itself; this is the executive branch of government setting out its bait for the masses of labor aristocrats. We have to keep that in mind when assessing the truth of the regime’s claims. This isn&#8217;t a board meeting, but rather an advertising campaign.</p>



<p>So what did the Burgher King say?</p>



<p>He was less combative in defense of ICE and CBP than he has been in the past – in fact, he didn’t mention <em>any</em> DHS agency by name. This reflects the government’s awareness that the federal occupation of Minnesota is deeply unpopular. Trump’s regime has been widely unpopular with the middle and lower petty bourgeoisie, but it can only continue its course with support from the labor aristocracy and upper petty bourgeois elements.<sup data-fn="8431243c-f53c-412c-972a-d3a4c248fe75" class="fn"><a href="#8431243c-f53c-412c-972a-d3a4c248fe75" id="8431243c-f53c-412c-972a-d3a4c248fe75-link">3</a></sup> Trump himself <em>must </em>be seen to bridge the gap between the ruling class and the reactionary labor aristocracy in order for the right-fascist coalition to maintain its integrity. </p>



<p>The speech was peppered with shout outs to members of the US imperialist armed forces,<sup data-fn="8c86c0ee-5402-420b-876d-d1e854c7b60e" class="fn"><a href="#8c86c0ee-5402-420b-876d-d1e854c7b60e" id="8c86c0ee-5402-420b-876d-d1e854c7b60e-link">4</a></sup> and “victims” of immigrants as well as a handful of labor aristocrats who, thanks to the Burgher King, have finally managed to become landed property owners and fulfill the American Dream of owning a plot of land. Kissing the dirty boots of this sovereign, every parasite can be a franchisee – to every roach, a toy with their meal. </p>



<p>Yes, Trump also thanked some members of the ruling capitalist class by name (Michael and Susan Dell and Brad Gerstner) while at the same time sounding the false populist drum of the Stop Insider Trading Act.<sup data-fn="55137fc3-2dc6-4968-9781-d307966de863" class="fn"><a href="#55137fc3-2dc6-4968-9781-d307966de863" id="55137fc3-2dc6-4968-9781-d307966de863-link">5</a></sup> The goal of this rhetorical move, of course, is to contrast the “good” ruling class (capitalists) with the “bad” ruling class (politicians) while obscuring the <em>real</em> relation between them, that members of Congress are the <em>servants </em>of the capitalist class.</p>



<p>By far the bulk of the speech was devoted to nativist fear mongering about immigrants. It also included naked threats issued to Iran, demanding the Iranian state surrender its nuclear weapons program or suffer an invasion.<sup data-fn="b7fdbeac-107a-4d99-a2bb-b175585042c6" class="fn"><a href="#b7fdbeac-107a-4d99-a2bb-b175585042c6" id="b7fdbeac-107a-4d99-a2bb-b175585042c6-link">6</a></sup> There was a token reference to the policy of trans genocide (inverted, of course, as “saving” children). In its entirety, the speech was clearly aimed at stoking the traditional US middle-class militarism and strengthening the regime’s basis among the labor aristocrats they have been alienating with their Minneapolis operation. The Burgher King attempted to negotiate this while downplaying the fault-line he has opened with the US vassals in NATO.<sup data-fn="e93a8c26-acc2-40cf-918a-689f8203793c" class="fn"><a href="#e93a8c26-acc2-40cf-918a-689f8203793c" id="e93a8c26-acc2-40cf-918a-689f8203793c-link">7</a></sup></p>



<p>The regime’s rhetorical commitment to the labor aristocracy and petty bourgeoisie remains loud and steadfast. Trump referred to: a state college savings program for children designed to increase class mobility, a federal pension program for private employees to maintain government savings accounts and putting them on the federal dole,<sup data-fn="3b8a17e3-00ac-4493-a40d-460de5949d0e" class="fn"><a href="#3b8a17e3-00ac-4493-a40d-460de5949d0e" id="3b8a17e3-00ac-4493-a40d-460de5949d0e-link">8</a></sup> his success in keeping mortgage rates down to make housing affordable, and keeping property rates high for the value of housing and land to remain a viable path for investment and class ascension to the labor aristocrats.</p>



<p>In the wings, the imperialist bourgeoisie are slavering for war in Iran, occupation of Venezuela, and increased pressure on the US working class.<sup data-fn="06e2ea67-c2b7-4332-ab75-fda07f24bea3" class="fn"><a href="#06e2ea67-c2b7-4332-ab75-fda07f24bea3" id="06e2ea67-c2b7-4332-ab75-fda07f24bea3-link">9</a></sup> The main media outlets, which deliver news to the vast majority of the US population, have neither attacked nor defended the speech except to note where it was factually inaccurate. Senator Elizabeth Warren, a member of the Democratic “opposition,” stood and applauded when the Burgher King called for war in the Middle East.</p>



<p>As long as the labor aristocracy stands by the side of the big imperialists, the revolutionary situation will never mature fully. There is an opportunity, here and now, to break this connection. As the Trump regime moves into territory ever-more-fervently desired by the big bourgeoisie, our window for the wedge grows wider. We must break the complacency of the labor aristocrats away from the imperial bourgeoisie; the only way to do that is to build up the revolutionary consciousness and organizational level of the real proletariat and force the labor aristocracy and petty bourgeoisie into a reckoning with its material complicity with the terror-regime of Washington.</p>

<p>On the morning of the 28th of February 2026, the Great Satan and its vassal in occupied Palestine <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/28/explosions-in-downtown-tehran-smoke-seen-rising">launched a cluster of missiles</a> at the Islamic Republic of Iran. Just in the opening salvo, the settler-terrorist regime has bombed a school and <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/28/israel-strikes-two-schools-in-iran-killing-more-than-50-people">killed over a hundred school-aged children</a>, decisively bringing the devastation of the children&#8217;s holocaust in Gaza to the heartlands of another nation. As thus proven, the imperialists will stop at nothing to reassert their hegemony, to rescue the &#8220;Pax Americana,&#8221; because they <em>cannot stop</em>. The abyss of financial collapse and imperial decline looms wide in the imaginations of the yankee elites, as well it should. To preserve the empire and their place in it, no crime is too criminal, however grotesque, and no atrocity is too atrocious, however vast. No destruction is too devastating, however permanent and disfiguring for the shared future for humanity. Anything and everything is on the table, no matter the consequences.</p>



<p>Today the Third World War is being fought on every continent. The genocides waged by the imperialists in <a href="https://sudantribune.com/article/311211">Sudan</a> and the <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/2/27/mass-graves-with-171-bodies-found-in-eastern-dr-congo-report">Democratic Republic of the Congo</a> continue unabated. The Alliance of Sahel States <a href="https://marxist.com/ibrahim-traore-the-alliance-of-sahel-states-and-the-fight-against-imperialism-in-west-africa.htm">continues its open rebellion</a> against the neo-colonial system. The battle with Revolutionary Yemen over control of the <a href="https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/yemens-iranian-backed-houthi-rebels-to-resume-attacks-on-shipping-in-red-sea-corridor-officials/article70687579.ece">Red Sea reignites</a>. Missiles launched by Iran&#8217;s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps rain down <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/01/world/middleeast/iran-attacks-dubai-persian-gulf-countries-retaliation.html">across the empire&#8217;s &#8220;middle east.&#8221;</a> <a href="https://www.sfgate.com/news/world/article/in-familiar-ritual-israelis-race-back-and-forth-21947238.php">Sirens blare once again</a> in the heart of the forward base colony in occupied Palestine. Resistance forces in occupied Iraq <a href="https://x.com/ME_Observer_/status/2027856384235090031">launch a new offensive</a> against the imperialists. The decade-long struggle by the Russian Federation to wrest Ukraine from the clutches of the neo-nazi NATO coup regime continues to grind at the unity of the US-NATO-EU imperialist cartel. The people&#8217;s struggle for control of the state in <a href="https://kawsachun.com/five-myths-about-the-crisis-of-the-left-in-bolivia-by-sacha-llorenti/">Bolivia</a> carries on despite setbacks, and besieged <a href="https://orinocotribune.com/venezuelas-acting-president-rodriguez-dismisses-us-narrative-of-control-vows-to-rescue-president-maduro-legal-team/">Venezuela</a> and <a href="https://socialistchina.org/2026/02/25/with-chinese-support-cuba-triples-solar-power-in-one-year/">Cuba</a> persist and develop national autonomy with the assistance of the multipolar powers. Soldiers of the Korean People&#8217;s Army march triumphant in Pyongyang on their <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/10/24/kim-jong-un-hails-military-alliance-with-russia-honours-kursk-liberators">return from the Kursk front</a>, bringing home valuable modern combat experience against imperial troops for use in the defense of their homeland. The <a href="https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2026/03/02/2003853111">Taiwan question looms</a> at the forefront of east Asian politics.</p>



<p>The Palestinian people of Gaza, silenced and forgotten by the West, still struggle for their lives against floods, cold, disease, and starvation, as the colony&#8217;s encirclement and genocidal siege continues unabated in its third year. With every passing hour the disfigurement and trauma of colonial genocide is laid ever heavier on the lives and minds of hundreds of thousands of innocents.</p>



<p>At every turn for the past five centuries, the settler-colonial invasion and occupation of our beautiful continent by imperialist Europe and its &#8220;United States&#8221; has revealed itself to operate according to raw violence and self-interest alone — and today more people than ever before in all of world history stand witness to the unremittent and unabashed savagery of the euro-amerikan imperial system and are asking themselves, &#8220;what is to be done?&#8221;</p>



<p>Inside the borders of the US empire, the ICE secret police continue to kidnap innocents and doom untold thousands to die in concentration camps. Migrant workers, refugees, and Indigenous people are targeted for ethnic cleansing, and resistance is stamped out by increasingly militarized police forces. The empire&#8217;s oppressed wage a daily struggle for survival against a still-rampaging but censored SARS-2 pandemic, eugenicist labor policies, and ever more openly-genocidal ableism and transphobic violence. And yet the &#8220;progressives&#8221; of the imperial heart of darkness itself are talking about their 2028 electoral candidates, as if this war is merely a matter of legislative policy. Many &#8220;socialists&#8221; insist that revolution is impossible, and the <a href="https://unity-struggle-unity.org/outlook-2026/">Four Opportunist Parties</a> continue their strategies of co-opting spontaneous organizing and demobilizing radical movements. For those of us in the imperial core, the question of how to respond, how to organize, and how to start winning, weighs more heavily and more urgently than ever.</p>



<p>Take stock of the international situation, of how ever more of the world is drawn into conflict with the empire. Then take stock of your local situation, of how ever more people around you are drawn into antagonism with the system. Settlers splinter into fragmentary interest groups as the solution to the crisis of imperialism becomes a more contentious and pressing issue, or they simply &#8220;check out&#8221; of political engagement altogether, preferring to numb themselves with the bread and circuses of our age. At the same time, the oppressed are drawn to co-operate and resist together, or die alone. As the international situation shifts, it is reflected in the local conditions we experience. Just as the settlers here are more and more at each others&#8217; throats, the member states of the NATO imperialist cartel descend into infighting as their position worsens and continues to destabilize. The experience of the first two world wars of the capitalist-imperialist era taught us that global war is the standard modus operandi of how the global capitalist system resolves its internal crises. Furthermore, the experience of the first two world wars taught us that only revolutionary war can put an end to these conflicts. The first world war was ended by revolutionary uprisings in Russia and Germany, and the second by the united efforts of the revolutionary peoples of the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, and China. No such revolutionary force directly threatens the heartlands of the imperialist forces today as the Soviet Union and its allies once did, and so this third world war will only end as the first did: when the revolutionary masses within the empire unite and put an end to it. These masses are the millions in occupied New Afrika and the occupied First Nations, and the millions of settlers oppressed by their state on the basis of their ability, gender, sexuality, and age.</p>



<p>In fighting all of these wars the empire is running out of ammunition; <a href="https://www.csis.org/analysis/depleting-missile-defense-interceptor-inventory">its production simply can&#8217;t keep up</a>. Where it can&#8217;t control us with naked force, it seeks to intimidate us with pervasive surveillance. But always remember that the empire doesn&#8217;t have the manpower to surveil <em>all</em> of us. This is why it pours its finances into AI to do the work for it (as well as to <a href="https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/international/2026/02/03/856623.htm">create venues for speculation</a> and parasitism). The empire aims to have the repression infrastructure it needs built before the AI bubble bursts, but <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2026/02/10/business/corruption-index-transparency-international-united-states-intl">rampant corruption</a> and <a href="https://www.wri.org/insights/us-data-centers-electricity-demand">insufficient electrical infrastructure</a> call even that goal into question. It has taken the combined efforts of billions of people in struggle over the last century to bring the empire to its knees, and our task is paltry by comparison: organize a few million more to at last tear out the empire&#8217;s heart on behalf of all humanity. We have to turn the third world war into the second US civil war, and carry this war to vanquish the settler empire once and for all. Only a policy of revolutionary defeatism, the pursuit of the empire&#8217;s defeat and complete capitulation to its enemies from within, can provide us the concrete foundation for building revolutionary unity among our organizations. <em><strong>All revolutionary and anti-imperialist organizations must struggle between one another for unity on this line, and where such organizations do not yet exist, they must be built.</strong></em></p>

					<description><![CDATA[Trump and his imperialist collaborators understand the reformist nature of South Afrika’s government, but still targets them because of its rejection of outright western colonial rule.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p>On May 12, 2025, a chartered plane carrying 59 white South Afrikan settlers landed in the U.S. These are Trump’s fake refugees: grandchildren of apartheid who seek to stake their claims in the U.S. where they can enjoy an undisturbed racial hierarchy and the global flea market<sup data-fn="aa319f88-cb5a-41c6-b1bf-b5798154391d" class="fn"><a href="#aa319f88-cb5a-41c6-b1bf-b5798154391d" id="aa319f88-cb5a-41c6-b1bf-b5798154391d-link">1</a></sup> — consumer goods subsidized by imperialism. Meanwhile, the admission of <em>real </em>refugees into the U.S. remains <a href="https://cwsglobal.org/blog/daily-state-of-play-trumps-indefinite-refugee-ban-and-funding-halt/">indefinitely suspended</a>, leaving tens of thousands of our foreign policy victims in limbo, many of whom had their applications for residency approved.  Just last week, Trump’s proposed travel ban included 36 countries — 25 of which are in Afrika. The ruling imperial class is once again choosing to demonize those in the Global South, either by banning them from entering the country or by subjecting them to ICE raids.</p>



<p>However, white supremacists face an immediate contradiction due to the essential role of undocumented labor in the U.S. Some capitalists have already <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/trump-reversal-may-exempt-farms-hotels-immigration-raids-rcna212958">begun to beg</a> the president to scale down the raids, complaining that ICE is taking all their best workers and hurting their profit margins. Every fascist <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/south-africa-racist-white-farmers-trump-musk-genocide-ramaphosa-rcna190749">accusation</a> against the Global South is an admission<sup data-fn="eb9fab77-1feb-4570-8a2c-36030fd3333e" class="fn"><a href="#eb9fab77-1feb-4570-8a2c-36030fd3333e" id="eb9fab77-1feb-4570-8a2c-36030fd3333e-link">2</a></sup>, whether directed at Black people in South Afrika for “white genocide” or undocumented people in the imperial core for bringing violence to a society that seeks to exploit and assault them. </p>



<p>30 years after apartheid, the 7% minority of white settlers continue to <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/02/09/white-south-africans-us-00203271">occupy</a> 72% of South Afrika’s farmland. Legalistic mechanisms for land reforms have failed to address the problem; <a href="https://effonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/FAQ-2020.pdf.pdf.pdf">only 9%</a> of the land has been returned to the Black people it was stolen from. Before it can return land, the government needs to provide <em>compensation</em> to the white settler. In other words, the law requires the government to pay thieves to return stolen land. Black South Afrikans can’t get their land back because doing so would bankrupt the country. The result? <em>In 2025, South Afrika has the </em><a href="https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/wealth-inequality-by-country"><em>highest wealth inequality</em></a><em> of any country in the world</em>. The average Black household owns <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09538259.2024.2318962">5%</a> of the wealth of the average white household. These statistics alone explain why South Afrikan <a href="https://www.voanews.com/a/white-south-africans-reject-trump-s-resettlement-plan/7967974.html">white lobbying groups</a> — who project false claims of supposed “racial persecution” throughout the world&nbsp; — have spoken out against relocation to the U.S. Relocating white settlers would only hamper domestic settler efforts towards retaking full political power and overturning the basic legal rights won by the Black majority in 1994. One white pensioner spelled the situation out <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/2/9/no-thanks-white-south-africans-turn-down-trumps-us-immigration-offer">clearly</a>: “If you haven’t got any problems here, why would you want to go?”&nbsp;</p>



<p>Trump’s relocation of white settlers appears to be part of a larger U.S. attack on South Afrika’s government. In 2024, President Cyril Ramaphosa enacted the “Land Expropriation Act” —&nbsp; essentially an eminent domain law which allows the government to repurpose private land for the public benefit. According to the law, land can only be expropriated without compensation in <a href="https://www.jurist.org/features/2025/02/11/explainer-understanding-the-south-africa-land-reform-law-that-provoked-trumps-ire/">limited scenarios</a>, like when property is unused or abandoned. To this day, no land has been seized in South Africa without compensation. This is the law that Trump claims will cause “white genocide” in South Afrika. The U.S. had already cut off nearly all foreign aid to South Afrika back in February, throwing the country&#8217;s healthcare system into a <a href="https://www.eatg.org/hiv-news/south-africa-catastrophic-consequences-of-the-us-government-funding-cuts/">new crisis</a> overnight.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Although Trump and his imperialist collaborators understand the reformist nature of South Afrika’s government, the country is still centered in the U.S.’ crosshairs because of its rejection of outright western colonial rule. South Afrika has been represented by the ANC (African National Congress) — the party of Nelson Mandela — since the end of apartheid. In all likelihood, the U.S. wants to remove the ANC from power and replace it with one of the more imperialist-friendly parties representing white interests. In its 30 years of rule, the ANC has built strong economic relationships with <a href="https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2025/05/20/5-ways-south-africa-undermines-u-s-interests-and-what-must-change/">enemies of the U.S.</a> such as China, Russia, and Iran. The South Afrikan <a href="https://unric.org/en/south-africa-vs-israel-14-other-countries-intend-to-join-the-icj-case/">lawsuit</a> against so-called “israel” in the International Court of Justice — supposedly the highest court in the world — continues to isolate the zionist entity, which has lost sympathy even in the West. If the U.S. were to succeed in its regime change effort, they would replace the ANC with a party such as the Democratic Alliance. With its bedrock of white support, this party would be quick to submit to the U.S. by signing extortionist trade deals and dismissing the I.C.J. lawsuit. For Trump, the chance to bully an oppressed country like South Afrika while pandering to the white base at home was too convenient to pass up.&nbsp;</p>



<p>From within the U.S., we can see how the relocation fiasco is in perfect alignment with the current <a href="https://clarion.unity-struggle-unity.org/2025-02-06-the-fascist-playbook/">fascist playbook</a>. The illusions of a multi-racial participatory society in a racist settler colony are dissipating in the face of an explicit preference for white immigration, especially those who show loyalty to the imperial project. I.C.E. agents and deputized local police are snatching undocumented people from their homes and workplaces. The most immediate hurdle to the new terror project lies in the capitalist class itself, who keenly appreciate the <a href="https://clarion.unity-struggle-unity.org/2025-02-26-the-u-s-precariat-under-fire/">essential role</a> of undocumented immigrants in the Amerikan economy. Capitalists in both meatpacking and agriculture economic sectors pleaded directly to Trump that the ICE raids are having a bad effect on business. By working the hardest jobs for the least pay, undocumented workers ensure that Amerikans have access to cheap produce while guaranteeing a steady profit for the capitalist. The class collaboration between these capitalists and Amerikans at large is essential to the arrangement. Without undocumented labor, the already small profit margins in agriculture and meatpacking would vanish, which would then trigger skyrocketing food costs. The takeaway from this is that <em>there was already ample reason to be in the streets </em>before the ICE raids began. Instead of waving the Amerikan flag like the recently-arrived South Afrikan settlers, protesters should agitate based on the general conditions of racial hierarchies in labor. Violent ICE raids will of course continue, although the business enterprises of certain capitalists will now be spared by the Trump regime. The federal and municipal pigs will continue to arrest grandparents, parents, and children.&nbsp;</p>



<p>While fascists balance the contradictions between their rhetoric and reality, they still agitate their base by attacking a sovereign nation with racist dog whistles. On June 2, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-south-africa-refugees-afrikaner-white-f5ed3aa615e0448157f8c4752d2a0cc7#:~:text=More%20white%20South%20Africans%20arrive%20in%20the%20US%20under%20a%20new%20refugee%20program,-Deputy%20Secretary%20of&amp;text=JOHANNESBURG%20(AP)%20%E2%80%94%20A%20second,and%20advocacy%20groups%20said%20Monday.">9 more settlers</a> from South Afrika arrived in the U.S, and more will be on the way unless South Afrika bows under the pressure. We must never forget that Land Back is as desperately needed here on Turtle Island as it is in South Afrika. Amerikan fascists feign horror at Trump’s unsubstantiated claims of land repossession. Imagine their response to a real campaign for Land Back on what they consider to be their home territory.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Spend these summer months engaged in social investigation or engaged in study. <a href="https://unity-struggle-unity.org/unity-prospectus/">USU</a> and the <a href="https://linktr.ee/aeworkersleague">All-Empire Workers’ League</a> are here to join you in struggle with materials and assistance as we work on tangible projects in the real world. Whatever you do, don’t let the summer pass you by as white supremacists continue their push to convert the mass fascist state into its final, deadly form.&nbsp;</p>
