By Julia Wright June 29, 2024As freedom fighters who have seen many wars, from Vietnam to Algeria, from Palestine to Kanaky, we do not take the good news that comes our way lightly. First, because we fought and put our lives on the line for it. Second, because there is always a dark lining to a silver cloud.

The violence unleashed by Zionism and US imperialism can only be combated through mass organized political activity united in a commitment to toppling these forces.
