Social Justice - "dead in the water" ?

French President Francois Hollande is surrounded by Heads of state including Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mali's President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, Germany's Chancellor Angela Merkel, European Council President Donald Tusk, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Italy's Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and Switzerland's President Simonetta Sommaruga as they attend the solidarity march in the streets of Paris January 11, 2015.   PHOTO: Reuters
Well known Rhode Island radio-TV news anchor Gene Valicenti (630wpro.com) says this morning -in passing- that President Obama's plan to TAX THE RICH is certainly "dead in the water."

What, the ONE PERCENT won't hear it?  But we are all one united patriotic family in the struggle against Islamic extremism and terrorism?

Should we working class people of the United States forge a fatuous alliance with our own exploiters and oppressors to punish the downtrodden Muslims of the world?

Shall we join hands with the bloodsuckers of this world in order to make the world safer for their bloodsucking? Bought and sold bourgeois intellectuals babble about international terrorism as if it had no connection to imperialism and global capitalism.

Is social justice "dead in the water" under Republican political domination? Just what kind of "democracy" does the U.S. prescribe for the world? Worth dying for?
