The Life Expectancy of Palestinians Fell by 11.5 Years in the First Three Months of the Genocide: The Fifth Newsletter (2025)

Abdel Hadi el-Gazzar (Egypt), Popular Chorus, 1949. Dear friends, Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. The idea of a ceasefire is as old as the idea of war.

Triumph of the 3rd Intifada, betrayal of its leaders

La Marx International The Ceasefire Agreement expresses the remarkable triumph of the 3rd Intifada. The agreements signed on paper illustrate the reality of the defeat that the Palestinian people imposed on the battlefield, based on the firm determination to liberate their land occupied by Zionism. The defeat of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is a historic event, never before suffered by the Zionist state provoked by the struggle of urban  guerrilla warfare, the decisive factor that explains why the Palestinian people won this first round of the war of national liberation. The images clearly show the reality: After the announcement of the ceasefire, celebrations began in Gaza, and pro-Palestinian activists from all over the world who held massive mobilizations of celebrat...

FREE DR AAFIA SIDDIQUI: A CALL FOR JUSTICE AND CLEMENCY

Boric (Chile) and Lula (Brazil), hurry up peace agreements, to save the heads of Maduro and his henchmen, promoted by Corina Machado and imperialism, to carry out a peaceful transitional government and pardon the dictatorship all the crimes against humanity committed against our Venezuelan people. ...
