For the military triumph of the Palestinian militias! Weapons for the Palestinian militias! Long live the 3rd Intifada!

LH has begun coordinating attacks with these brigades, and Hamas also wants LH to allow Palestinian groups inside Lebanon to fight Israel, since LH controls the border working at all military and political levels. LH has been accumulating forces on the borders with Israel in Lebanon and Syria since fighting began on October 7, opening the possibility of the war taking on an international character, expanding in the region, and being fought in multiple fronts. Unlike other Palestinian and Arab militias, LH is a powerfully equipped, formidable force that has special forces and advanced equipment that can pose a very significant threat to Israel.

The presence in southern Lebanon of the Imam al Hussein Brigade, based in Syria, which has moved to southern Lebanon to help LH in the fight against Israel, has been confirmed. This militia represents a multinational fighting force composed of thousands of fighters from across the Middle East. The senior commanders of the Israeli armed forces have observed with concern the phenomenon that implies an advance in the coordination of Arab militias of different nationalities that gives very strong military power to the militias of the northern front of Israel, and a threat to the Zionist state .

On Israel's border with southern Lebanon is the Shebaa farms, a disputed territory militarily occupied by Israel that is about 14 kilometers long and 2.5 kilometers wide. This area is recognized by both Lebanon and Syria as a constituent part of Lebanese territory. In the dispute over this battle front in southern Lebanon, it is essential to take into account as background that when the Israeli IDF tried to invade the southern area of ​​Lebanon in 2006 to eliminate Hezbollah, they were completely defeated. Today all political and military analysts consider that Hezbollah is 5 times more powerful than it was in 2006, which constitutes a very important battle front of the 3rd Intifada.

Fourth front of the 3rd Intifada: The Battle of the Golan Heights

The 4th front is that of the Golan Heights, territory occupied by Israel in Syria. There we group the combats that take place between the IDF with Iraqi, Syrian, and Houthi militias that are located in Yemen. This entire territory became a "no man's land" for world imperialism to the extent that the withdrawal of NATO armies occurred between 2009 and 2010, after the defeat of NATO and the imperialist armies in the War. of National Liberation of Iraq . After the withdrawal of imperialist troops, the First Arab Spring broke out in 2011, a revolutionary process that encompassed more than 30 countries in the Middle East and North Africa. 

The Golan Heights is an area that Israel took from Syria in the 6-Day War of 1967. Militias from Syria and Iraq have regrouped there and use missiles, rockets and unidirectional drones against Israeli military positions, but also against US and NATO positions and headquarters in Iraq and Syria.

Coordinated militia groups in the Islamic Resistance of Iraq have carried out drone attacks against the al Tanf garrison in Syria and three unidirectional drones against the Conoco mission support site. Iraqi militias fired rockets at US forces at Ain al Asad air base, Anbar province, Iraq.

The Houthi militias based in Yemen have declared war on Israel and launched land attack cruise missiles and drones aimed at Israel, but the US Navy warship USS Carney intercepted the missiles. Iraqi and Syrian militias combine attacks on Israel with US targets. Other militia groups in Iraq are intervening with missiles and drones against the IDF

The Houthi movement operating in Yemen continues to launch a "large batch of drones" that hit Israeli territory, while others were intercepted by both the IDF and Pentagon ships located in the Mediterranean Sea, and the Red Sea, as The Pentagon has reported it. Many of these missiles were intercepted by Saudi Arabia and the United States, which constitutes a particularly worrying front for Israel and imperialism since it implies a constant threat to their critical infrastructure, and together with the front in southern Lebanon, it implies a element of internationalization of the conflict to the extent that it involves Arab militias from different countries who join the Israeli armed forces in the daily combat.

The Pentagon and Israel seek to defeat the 3rd Palestinian Intifada

The 3rd Intifada has cornered the Nazi state of Israel, and has made it enter a deep crisis. Israel's response is with the same brutal methods that characterize it: Bombings of the defenseless civilian population in Gaza, children, young people, the elderly, the typical Nazi actions of Israel that it has been carrying out for more than 70 years. Netanyahu attacks the civilian population and bombs them, repeating Putin's same fascist methodology against the civilian population.

The enclave of Israel is an artificial State created by imperialism in the Middle East in 1948 to subjugate and repress the Arab people . The event of its creation is called the "Nakba" (the "catastrophe" ) for the Palestinian people who became a wandering, landless people, condemned to live in exile, because Israel was created on the lands that the Palestinians and the other peoples of the region had occupied it in peace for centuries. In this way, the State of Israel has been for decades a Nazi state, an aircraft carrier on land that attacks, murders, represses and persecutes everything that is Arab, a kind of closed neighborhood for the privileged protected by a powerful army financed by the US imperialism.

But the 3rd Intifada is questioning the very existence of Israel and has made it enter a deep crisis: Today it is a country whose cities are empty, deserted, with a terrified population, fleeing to their countries of origin, where they stay to live. the officials, bureaucrats of the Zionist state, settlers and soldiers. At this moment there are more than 80,000 displaced Israelis, living in hotels, fleeing their neighborhoods and homes, and several thousand more Israelis fleeing the country on the planes of airlines from different nations that remove dual national citizens who were living In Israel.

The Israel of the kibbutz, the happy cities, the ostentatious life for the settlers, no longer exists. The 3rd Intifada and the offensive of Palestinian fighters has put an end to it. The defeat of the IDF on October 7 occurred just when Israel is going through a deep political and social crisis, starting with the uprising of the Israeli people just 7 months ago, in March 2023 when they carried out a powerful mobilization against the minister's reforms Benjamin Netanyahu. The massive mobilizations were followed by other large mobilizations in cities such as Haifa, Rosh Pina, and Tel Aviv against Netanyahu's anti-democratic attempt and his government coalition made up of reactionary, racist, fascist, and Zionist fanatic groups.

Netanhayu's Bonapartist reform attempted to advance the formation of a regime that would allow a free hand to repress the 3rd Intifada, dictating laws, appointing magistrates, appointing judges, and prosecutors that would allow the Executive Branch to flagrantly intervene in the Judicial Branch to control it. . In the massive mobilizations in rejection of the reform, very large sectors of the Israeli Armed Forces joined and folded, which led to an extreme crisis of the State of Israel that made it clear that the existence of a Nazi, fascist state is incompatible with the exercise of social rights and democratic freedoms, even if they are more minimal.

The president of the US imperialist government Joe Biden affirmed that he "is unconditionally on the side of Israel", ratifying the status of an imperialist enclave of the Zionist state. Meanwhile, NATO and US imperialism began to intervene in support of Israel by deploying the powerful Gerald Air aircraft carrier and other aircraft carriers under the command of CENTCOM ( Central Command), which arrives battered in the Middle East after the beating that the Pentagon suffered in the Iraq War in 2006.

As a result of the military beating, and the "Iraq Syndrome", that is, the political crisis that opened in the Pentagon and the US Armed Forces after the defeat in the Iraq War, on this occasion no soldier of The United States will set foot on Palestinian lands. For 17 years the US Army has not invaded any country, and the military presence in support of Israel will be of support to the Israeli troops, bombing from a distance, providing supplies, and as a deterrent regarding the possible armed intervention from other Middle Eastern countries.

The global left: A "humanist" and "pacifist" politics

The Progressive International and 99% of the world left carry out a hypocritical and repugnant "pacifist" and "humanist" policy that is in no way different from the policy of the UN. The politics of the world left is led by slogans such as "Cease Fire", "Peace", or "Stop Genocide" that denies the existence of the 3rd Intifada, does not fight for the triumph of the Palestinian militias, and refuses to demand weapons for those militias. The groups of the Progressive International, as well as the left social democrats, the Stalinists, ex-guerrillas, the Zapatistas, the autonomists, and ex-Trotskyists limit themselves to "Demand the capitalist governments to break with Israel" , and call for the "Stop the fire" , a hypocritical and scoundrel policy when President Netanhayu himself says that "There is no possibility of a ceasefire" , attacks every day with bombs, and ignores all the hypocritical calls from the UN.

Demanding capitalist governments break with Israel, or demanding a ceasefire is the same as asking cows to fly or horses to talk. They are unrealistic slogans and demands, which will not happen because all the capitalist governments of the world are supporting Israel, and are in complete agreement with the butcher Netanhayu's work to defeat the 3rd Intifada. The only real demand is for the triumph of the Palestinian militiamen, it is the only way to achieve "Peace" to the extent that that monstrosity that is the State of Israel is destroyed forever.

The masses of the world are to the left of the Progressive International and 99% of the world left. The workers and people of the world have come out to mobilize with massive marches with the slogan of " Free Palestine" for the triumph of Palestine, putting forward the need for the defeat of Israel. In Europe and the United States, pickets have been formed in ports that prevent the shipment of weapons and food to Israel. In Dagestan, the republic of the Russian Federation, a gigantic mobilization repudiated the arrival of Israeli exiles. In several Middle Eastern countries the masses have aimed to burn embassies of Israel and the United States.

All of these actions are destroying and cornering the Nazi State of Israel, far from the candid calls for "Peace" of the global left. The masses of the world are giving an extraordinary example of global revolutionary mobilization in support of the 3rd Intifada. Therefore, an organization that truly considers itself Marxist and revolutionary must repudiate all those calls from the UN, the Progressive International and 99% of the world left. Our call is for the victory of the Palestinian militias, for the destruction of Israel, the expulsion of the Israeli settlers, the only guarantee of putting an end to the genocides and massacres.

The law of Retribution is coming for Zionist criminals

Our fight against the Islamic leaderships that operate in the Middle East is against their retrograde, cowardly and inconsequential bourgeois character that has allowed the State of Israel to survive for decades. The Islamic fundamentalist leaderships, due to their bourgeois and capitalist character, and their retrograde, religious, and sexist ideology, cannot consistently carry out a revolutionary struggle against the State of Israel. These Islamic leaders know that if they triumph, the same revolution that sweeps away the Nazi state of Israel will then begin to sweep away themselves. They know this because these are leaderships that defend the interests of the ruling classes of the Middle East.

But even though our fight against the Islamic leadership is permanent, we are for the military triumph of the militias that they lead. Precisely because the victory against Israel will later, due to the permanent nature of the revolution, be the end of those same Islamic leaderships. An entire current of the left has criticized Hamas or Hezbollah for taking hostages, practicing violence, or carrying out attacks against the Israeli Nazi army. Marxists support the struggle of the oppressed, "by all necessary means" in the words of Malcom

Karl Marx explained that in the struggle of the sepoys with British imperialism in India the most horrible methods were practiced. But that was the "retribution" that the sepoys carried out towards their colonizers for the horrors and genocides that the sepoys had endured during years of the British Empire. We believe that the Palestinian militias have every right to carry out the fight for their national liberation by all necessary means, the same rights that we grant to the people and Partisans of Ukraine who carry out attacks, murder collaborators, blow up vital infrastructure to defend and expel Putin's occupying army, and uses violence in "retribution" for centuries of national oppression.

Marxists are not "pacifists". We repudiate and reject petty-bourgeois pacifism that is horrified by the acts of violence carried out by militiamen who fight against oppressive armies and states. And we demand violence, just as Marx did publicly on countless occasions to crush the oppressors, the only guarantee of defending the freedoms, the rights of the vast majority of the oppressed, just as the Irish, the Catalans, the Ukrainians have done. , the people around the world who fight for their national liberation, just as the Palestinian militiamen do today.

For a secular, democratic and non- racist Palestine

The majority of the leftist currents that support Palestine raise the slogan of struggle "For a Socialist Palestine" . This slogan is totally wrong and functional to Israel. Obviously, as a basic solution and slogan for propaganda, Marxists are for a Socialist Palestine. But that slogan is not for action, much less at this time when it is necessary to unify and mobilize 99% of Palestinians in the fight against the IDF and the Zionist armies.

The slogan of a "Socialist Palestine" in any case will manage to mobilize 1% or 2% of the Palestinians. It is the slogan of those who seek to create propaganda, to capture some clueless person, but it is not useful to win a revolution. What mobilizes the entire Palestinian people is the fight to obtain a democratic, non-racist, and secular state because it contains all sectors of the Palestinians and leaves no one out. The establishment of a Palestinian state would mean an enormous advance for humanity because it would mean the end of the monstrosity of the Nazi state of Israel, the end of massacres, persecution and genocide.

But also the fight for a secular, democratic and non-racist state opens the doors to the socialist revolution. The end of the state of Israel, like the end of the bloody regime of tsarism in Russia, opens the door to socialist revolution, and to a workers' and popular government in Palestine, so that millions of Palestinians can escape from hunger and poverty.

That is why it is the only slogan that allows us to confront and defeat the policies of Islamic fundamentalist leaderships such as Hamas or Hezbollah. These directions propose an "Islamic Palestine" which means a sectarian slogan that does not incorporate all Palestinians, much less for the young Arabs and Palestinians who reject Islamic fundamentalism, fed up with the wealth, oppression and oligarchy of the Ayatollahs, the Sheikhs and the Islamic clerics.

The slogan of a democratic and non-racist secular Palestine, drafted by the Palestine Liberation Organization in 1964, and located in Marxism by Nahuel Moreno, is the slogan to lead the 3rd Intifada to victory.

For the triumph of the Palestinian militias! Weapons for the militiamen! Long live the 3rd Intifada!

The triumph of the Palestinian militiamen is vital for the development of the world revolution against capitalism. It feeds on the National Liberation War of the people of Ukraine, and in turn, invigorates and strengthens the struggle of all the peoples of the world for their liberation. The Palestinian militiamen and guerrillas have undertaken the fight facing the military superiority and technological deployment of imperialism and Israel. But superiority is no guarantee of victory, just as it was not for Putin in Ukraine, or for the US, in Iraq, or Vietnam.

When a people decides to undertake the revolution for National Liberation, and adopts the most modern revolutionary strategies such as urban guerrilla warfare, it will be very difficult for any army to defeat it, no matter how best and most modern equipment it has. Modern history has given plenty of examples of this. We Marxists do not hesitate: We unconditionally support the 3rd Intifada carried out by the Palestinian and Arab militiamen. Our cry, along with that of millions of Arabs, workers, and oppressed people who are rising up around the world, is Long Live the 3rd Palestinian Intifada! For the triumph of the Palestinian militias, of the Arab militias! who seek to end the Nazi State of Israel once and for all to free the Palestinian people.

At the same time we raise another slogan, the same one we raised for the people of Ukraine: Arms for the Palestinian militias! Weapons to defeat the Zionist armies! The Palestinian militias have every right to receive all types of weapons from anywhere to defeat the Nazi-Zionist army. On the path of the fight for Global Socialism, the Palestinian revolution, as well as the Ukrainian one, are fundamental milestones in the defeat of the imperialist cops, and their entire military device on which world capitalism relies. The triumph of the 3rd Intifada is our main task, the only and most important one.
