By Comrade Aziz On November 10, 2019, President Evo Morales of the plurinational state of Bolivia was forced to resign and subsequently flee the country due to pressure from the armed forces and the upper segments of Bolivian society.

[The imperialist's false narrative about chemical weapons use in Syria is crumbling. However, the general public might not be aware of this if they are only paying attention to mainstream sources.

[Will the US, France, or the UK pay for what they have done? We won't be holding our breath. The UN is a weapon, and it is wielded by the powerful against the weak. It is incredibly naive to believe that any of the permanent members of the Security Council would be brought to justice... Continue Reading →
[More evidence that international law is a farce. Israel blatantly and routinely violates the sovereignty of other weaker states in the region yet suffers no consequences at the hands of the international community.
