"Rape followed by the murder of Vietnamese women was so common that US soldiers had a special term for it: double veteran."
Fuck July 4th and fuck America
Any communist politics that doesn’t begin from this historically created reality will be poisoned by chauvinism & doomed by accommodation with imperialism.
⚠️ People's feelings have been rightfully hurt following the news of Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei's disapproval of the MoU
The chant:
We're ALL your soldier, Khamenei
Ready to carry out your command, Khamenei

Interview with the Iranian pilots who bombed US bases in Kuwait:
We attacked the US Buehring base. It was as if God turned each of our bombs into several bombs. The scale of the fire was so huge that we even saw several helicopters bursting into flames and then exploding.
The area was thrown into chaos, and they started activating their air defenses.
During our turn, we saw them firing missiles at targets in the sky.
My back-seat cockpit officer told me that an explosion had happened in the sky, we were confused about where they were being hit from.
By mistake, their aircraft also took off and the 3 American F-15s that were coming for a counterattack toward our Iran, the Kuwaitis mistook them for targets & shot them down.
By God’s grace, they destroyed all 3 of them at the same time.
They weren’t able to intercept & track us because of our deceiving tactics.
Unreal: the symbolism of Trump signing a surrender agreement at Versailles in which the US agrees to pay massive reparations is just too perfect.
I wouldn't be surprised if Macron weaponized Trump's complete ignorance of history and told him something like: "Mr. President, Versailles is where the most consequential deal of the 20th century was signed. Yours deserves the same stage."
Either that or Macron stumbled into the perfect historical parallel through sheer obliviousness - which, knowing him, is actually even more likely.
Westerners love to whine about how tyrannical and authoritarian Iran's government is, but it's worth noting that the control Tehran exerts within its borders is a major reason US-Israeli efforts to turn the nation into a giant Libya have failed. That control exists to thwart precisely the type of existential foreign threat that Iran just thwarted. Were it not for that existential foreign threat, such control wouldn't be necessary.
The US has openly admitted to deliberately fomenting the domestic unrest we saw in Iran earlier this year, and to attempting to arm insurgent factions. Those foreign threats were put down by precisely the "tyranny" you've seen western liberals and anarkiddies decrying in Iran all year.
The fact that the US-Israeli war failed to achieve the government-toppling goals set out by Washington and Tel Aviv means that Iran was able to inhibit the visibility that US and Israeli intelligence agencies had into the nation, because you only fail to accomplish a military objective you think you can accomplish if your enemy is able to surprise you. Countering US and Israeli intelligence operations, rooting out US and Israeli intelligence assets, blocking US and Israeli propaganda from domestic consumption, and obstructing US and Israeli visibility into Tehran's government and military could only be achieved by a strong government that's willing exert forceful control over what goes on inside its own borders.
Westerners like to point at the "authoritarianism" of the few remaining enemies of the US-centralized empire as though it proves that we're looking at a struggle between a beneficent and virtuous civilization and a bunch of evil tyrants, but really all it proves is that the only nations who are able to resist absorption into the imperial blob are the ones who are willing and able to exert control over what happens inside their borders. If the US and its allies weren't constantly working to subvert and topple all unabsorbed nations, this "authoritarianism" wouldn't be needed to resist it.
@RnaudBertrand Chaos and the downfall of the west does not necessarily lead to socialist revolution. Movements aren’t organized enough yet in the global south to capitalize on chaos. Which is why China chooses stability for the world for now
@ripplebrain Published an article on this topic. No force protection, key assets vulnerable, rebuild costs in tens of billions, etc.

The American individualist will die out during the Mass Extinction he caused. These eco-fascist fortresses will become prisons. Their family members will eat each other. The bunker Mark Zuckerberg dug into the volcanic earth of Hawai’i will be his tomb.
Survival is collective.
Los medios guardan silencio sobre lo que está pasando en Bolivia.
Una revolución popular contra el régimen neoliberal títere de EEUU que quiere derogar la revolución agraria y todos los derechos sociales conquistados...
Un ejemplo para los pueblos....
