WATCHING AMERICA: Workers of all faiths unite!

As a citizen of the United States, I must emphasize once again the CLASS connection here to the extraordinary oppression of black Americans. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union the world  seems to have forgotten the meaning of CLASS STRUGGLE.

The U.S. ruling class would like to make it almost impossible for ordinary working class people of every race, ethnic group, and nationality even to IMAGINE a world much different from this enduring nightmare of global capitalism. Socialist Internationalism once cried: "Workers of the world unite!"

Today right wing fanatics here would like us to accept the possibility of a nuclear attack on Iran. For an old guard socialist, workers who embrace the Islamic faith have more in common with workers who embrace Christianity or the Jewish faith than they do with advocates of a smothering theocracy anywhere.

Only MASS ACTION-peaceful protest-can save the world now. Just what do you think a Republican Senate and a Republican House in the U.S.A. are planning for the world?
