“Well, when you say working, are they stopping the Houthis? No,” responded Biden, quite frankly. “Are they going to continue? Yes.”

#PeoplesHistory | Today, we honor Italian Marxist Antonio #Gramsci's revolutionary legacy of elevating class consciousness to challenge fascist hegemony.
Gramsci strove to expose and resist the ruling elite's ideological instruments used to maintain control and to create conditions for the working class to achieve an egalitarian future. Despite being imprisoned for organizing Italy's workers against capitalist and fascist oppression, this revolutionary thinker, through his writings, continued to chart the course for the working class to break its shackles.
Gramsci's peerless analysis of class struggle remains indispensable for revolutionary movements confronting capitalism and fascism today.

Iranian foreign minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian accused Israel of using “mindless terrorism” to cover up its losses in its war on Gaza.
Abdollahian claimed that, “although the Zionist enemy has destroyed Gaza on a large scale and martyred tens of thousands of people, it has not achieved any of its goals, so it is trying to make up for its defeat by resorting to blind terrorism,” Press TV reported.
