Seems like Saudi Arabia only has two choices now for Yemen given recent statements.
Either they pull out from Yemen completely, lift the siege, pay back what's owed;
Or it's a return to war.
The Yemeni government in Sana'a made it clear today they're ready for war.
Quarant'anni fa, il 19 giugno 1986, il cosiddetto governo di "sinistra" dl Perù assassinò a sangue freddo oltre 300 prigionieri di guerra del Partito Comunista del Perù, che avevano eroicamente opposto resistenza in una brutale operazione di sterminio condotta in tre prigioni.
Viva la Giornata Internazionale dell'Eroismo dei Prigionieri Rivoluzionari!
Viva la Guerra Popolare in Perù condotta dal Partito Comunista del Perù sulla linea del Presidente Gonzalo!
They offered the landed aristocracy* the vote, not the entirety of the native population. Of course the landed aristocracy, who have already been showered with favors (and whose section that opted to resist, such as the Sulayman clan, has been crushed), would vote yes.
Fourth commander of battalion that killed Hind Rajab eliminated in south Lebanon, renewing scrutiny of the unit
——
The killing of Lt. Col. Dor Gedalia Ben Simhon, commander of the Israeli military's 52nd Battalion of the 401st Armored Brigade in southern Lebanon has renewed scrutiny of the unit responsible for the killing of six-year-old Palestinian girl Hind Rajab in Gaza. Ben Simhon was killed alongside three other Israeli soldiers after their tank was targeted in southern Lebanon, according to the Israeli military.
The 52nd Battalion came under international scrutiny after Hind Rajab was killed in Gaza City in January 2024 when Israeli forces deliberately attacked the vehicle carrying her and six relatives with hundreds of bullets. Rajab survived the initial attack and remained trapped inside the car while speaking with emergency dispatchers. An ambulance sent to rescue her was later struck, killing the two paramedics inside.
Her body was recovered 12 days later. An Al Jazeera investigation published in October identified former 52nd Battalion commander Daniel Ela and 401st Brigade commander Col. Beni Aharon among the officers involved in the killing of Rajab, her relatives, and the ambulance crew.
In May 2025, the Belgium-based Hind Rajab Foundation filed a complaint with the International Criminal Court against Ela and Aharon, accusing them of war crimes.
According to The Times of Israel, Ben Simhon is the fourth commander of the 52nd Battalion to be killed or wounded since the start of Israel's wars in Gaza and Lebanon. The outlet reported that Ela was wounded in Gaza in July 2024 and succeeded by Lt. Col. Yehuda Shalev, who was seriously injured in October that year. Another battalion commander was later wounded in southern Lebanon before Ben Simhon took command. Channel 14 previously reported that Ela had led the battalion on three separate occasions since October 2023.
40 years ago today, June 19 1986, the so-called “left-wing” government of Peru coldly murdered more than 300 prisoners of war from the Communist Party of Peru, who heroically resisted in a brutal extermination operation across three prisons.
Long live the Day of Heroism!
Glory to the Day of Heroism!
Long Live the Shining Trenches of Combat!
Honour and Glory to the Martyrs of June 19th!
To conquer the Red Sun of Liberation: Communism!
Reading about the Iranian aerial bombardment of US Camp Buehring in Kuwait reminded me of this clip of an Iranian F-4 Phantom engaging in a low-altitude bombing run against Iraqi forces during the Iran-Iraq War.
Seems like Iran have long used this tactic to great effect.
People will do anything but read Marx, to clarify:
1) The Proletariat is made up of workers who participate in productive AND reproductive labour, who receive a wage. This includes baristas, daycare workers, and ES/HS teachers alongside "traditional" proletarian proffesions.

They are of great historical importance especially regionally.
Chairman Gonzalo on violence: “This is an essential question of Marxism, because without revolutionary violence one class cannot replace another, an old order cannot be overthrown to create a new one — today a new order led by the proletariat through Communist Parties.”
‘"You are dictatorial." My dear sirs, you are right, that is just what we are. that is, to deprive the reactionaries of the right to speak and let the people alone have that right.’
