[Boston Militant Labor Forum]

The Militant Labor
Forum presents:



The
Class Struggle in Israel, Palestine,
and the Middle East Today

Lalucha de clases en Israel, Palestina, y el Oriente Medio hoy


 
          In
August, social protests in Israel involving both Jews and Arabs over rising
housing costs and declining living standards dealt a blow to the false notion
that class divisions and popular struggle against the country’s capitalist
government are precluded because there is supposedly no basis in Israel for
common struggle by working people from the Jewish majority and the oppressed
Palestinian people.
 ·       Why the events in Israel are an affirmation of the power of
the struggle for a democratic secular Palestine.
 ·       How the toppling of regimes in North Africa from Tunisia to
Egypt, ongoing struggles from Syria to Bahrain, and the mass protests inside
Israel involving Jews and Arabs have opened space for working people to
organize and fight for their interests. What is being prepared in the region is
not “peace,” but sharpening class struggle.
