No War With Iran! No Imperialism!

The war machine is revving its engines and the propaganda is heating up. Who is it this time? Not the Russians, not the Iraqis, not the Afghanis, not the Somalis, not the Koreans -- the Iranians, a country which has historically taken a defensive stance, militarily, but has been the object of speculation, rumors and lies over its nuclear program. While the United States and Israel conspire to assert “stability” in the region, the lives of millions, if not billions of Persians, Arabs, Israelis, and Palestinians, hang in the balance. This will not be a clean war, it will not be any easy war, and it will certainly not be a just war.

As struggle comes to the forefront, the ruling class is looking for ways to divide and conquer. An attack on our Persian friends, or provoking an attack from the Iranian government, is an attack on the international working class. It is an affront to the international democratic movement and it is a means to an end: global control.

The ruling class lied about Korea, they lied about Vietnam, they lied about Kosovo, they lied about Iraq, they lied about Libya, they are lying about Iran.
