    I’m sure the downvoters don’t know how the “terrorists” came to be in the first place.

    This is the reason why I could not believe that President Donald Trump is any more horrible than his predecessors despite his stance on the issue. Donald Trump antagonize the media oligarchy, cut foreign funding for debt trapping and terrorism, and stop trade with repressive governments and abusive workplace.

        Trump is not the problem, he is just a symptom of a wider problem. Regardless of having Democrats or Republicans, there is an advance in repression to workers in the US, as well as increase of violence in US foreign policy. 20 years ago they would not openly support a real time broadcasted genocide but nowadays they don’t care. Note this has nothing to do with Trump, as both Biden and Harris supported the exact same policies.

        The big problem is that the US oligarchy knows that their grip on the world is loosening, therefore they are shamelessly promoting an acceleration of violence and repression, on par with what they did post WW2 when a lot of liberation movements exploded after the West was too weak to handle all of them at the same time.

        All those moves are being done to quell any resistance that is being built in the global south. And they know that for doing this, they need to quell any unrest locally, as they need the population to sit apathically as they turn workers onto the imperial machine cannon fodder.

        So your struggle as worker in the US has everything to do with what is happening in the middle east right now. We need international solidarity more than ever.
