Markela Panegyres argues that while the global movement for Palestine has shifted public opinion, it has to become more organised to stop this genocide.
The CFMEU’s tradition of struggle can inspire all workers and explains why the ruling class wants to break its power, argues Jonathan Strauss.
Israel’s unprovoked and illegal attack on Iran, with the support of the United States, threatens regional conflict at great cost to human life and has to be opposed, argues Sam Wainwright.
Even as Israel’s Operation Gideon’s Chariots offensive in Gaza unmasks global capitalism as the ruthless, racist and colonialist project that it is, Anthony Albanese still refuses to impose sanctions on the genocidal regime, write Sue Bolton and Jacob Andrewartha.

Labor has secured a second term, with a landslide victory, but unless unions, social and community movements organise for real change, it will continue to bend to the will of the billionaire class, argue Jacob Andrewartha and Isaac Nellist.
United States President Donald Trump has tried to justify his tariff war on the world on the basis that the US has been “looted, pillaged, raped and plundered”. Peter Boyle argues that this is an inversion of reality.
Socialist Alliance joins millions of people around the world and Australia in condemning Israel for relaunching its deadly bombing raids on Gaza.
PM Anthony Albanese’s mealy-mouthed dodging of Trump’s declaration that the US would “own” and “level” Gaza was his way of signalling that Australia will tag along, albeit with a little bit of hand-wringing, argues Sam Wainwright.
United States President Donald Trump’s “Gaza-Riviera” plan must be condemned by all supporters of Palestine, argues the Socialist Alliance.
