Since the recent and ongoing US-Israel war on Iran and Lebanon, a record number of bombs have been dropped, thousands of people have been killed, and hundreds of thousands are displaced - many for the third time in just one decade. With all eyes on this horrific new war, the genocide unleashed on Gaza meanwhile continues despite the so-called "ceasefire."
Trump's gamble has gone badly wrong; the unrelenting US war machine fuels a global economic recession that has dragged down many countries with it. This horrific war costs trillions in what could have been spent on our public sectors.
- Why do ruling classes opt for raining destruction on schools, heath facilities, and civilian infrastructures?
- How can we understand the current US-Israel wars in light of the genocide in Gaza?
- What environmental catastrophies are in the making?
- How can we link contemporary social movements to new internationalist anti-war mobilisations?
- How do we create an agenda that does not sacrifice domestic struggles towards equality and social justice for regional resistance against imperialism?
Join us for a live online debate with two experts and intellectual critics and discuss how to relate this with commitment and urgency in our own local progressive organising.
