No, because China doesn't control the international financial system. It can't bully other countries to not trade with Israel like the USA did with Cuba. The only way a blockade would be effective is if the entire world joined in against Israel, the same way the USSR and the USA did against South Africa. That won't happen in the case of Israel. Furthermore, the reason American sanctions are effective (or have been effective until now, as the sanction regimes against Cuba, North Korea, Iran, Venezuela, etc. are clearly failing) is because they control the global financial system. Why doesn't China control the international financial system? Because it is not an imperialist power and does not desire to become one. Enforcing sanctions without total economic hegemony leads to cases like the notoriously ineffective EU sanctions against Russia.

Why doesn't China use its military to subjugate Israel and enforce Palestinian sovereignty? Becuase China can't project military power outside far away from its borders. Why? Because China is, again, not an imperialist power and it doesn not aspire to become an imperialist power.

Updates and current status since the start of the last thread:
(largely civilian) Palestinian death toll has now passed 70,000. Excess deaths have been estimated by The Lancet to plausibly be upwards of 186,000.

Italian workers' unions launched a massive general strike in October over the shipping of weapons through Italian ports which are being used in Israel's genocide, and launched another strike in November.

In early January 2025, Israel agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza and a prisoner exchange. Israel unilaterally broke the ceasefire. In October 2025, another ceasefire and prisoner exchange was agreed upon in Gaza, and Israel has proceeded to kill over 300 Palestinians in Gaza since agreeing. Israel has also refused to allow the agreed-upon amount of aid into Gaza.

Israel attacked Iran utilizing a large number of assets embedded in Iran, killing multiple scientists and high ranking Iranian military officials, as well as targeting schools, hospitals, oil assets, and a TV station. Around one thousand Iranians were killed in Israel's strikes on civilian targets like residential buildings. Iran retaliated with a series of waves of missile and drone attacks which hit multiple Israeli military targets including IDF HQ, Mossad HQ, as well as an Israeli oil field. After an Iranian strike on Unit 8200, the number of online Zionist apologists conspicuously reduced for a while. The Israeli government, embarrassed by the damage to Tel Aviv, heavily censored footage and reporting of Iranian strikes on Israel, resulting in the Israeli police arresting journalists and citizens for filming sites of impact, while rich Israelis fled by boat due to the closure of Ben-Gurion airport. Iran began a crackdown on Israeli terror cells, finding and closing multiple Mossad-linked covert drone factories, as well as reportedly arresting groups of Afghan nationals involved in sabotage, and multiple individuals reportedly linked to German & Indian spy agencies.

The US launched airstrikes against multiple Iranian nuclear energy sites, followed by Iran retaliating with a strike on a US airbase in Qatar. A ceasefire between Israel and Iran has been in place since shortly after this, with expectations being that Israel intends to recouperate and try again with more direct US invoPost too long.

Statement by Hamas:

"Regarding the killing of the traitor Yasser Abu Shabab, the Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, affirms the following:

The fate met by the dead collaborator, who worked with the occupation, Yasser Abu Shabab, is the inevitable fate of anyone who betrays his people and his homeland, and accepts being a tool in the hands of the occupation.

The criminal acts carried out by Yasser Abu Shabab and his gang represented a blatant departure from national and social norms.

We value the stance of the families, tribes, and clans that disowned Abu Shabab, and all those involved in attacking their own people or collaborating with the occupation, and lifted tribal and social protection from this isolated group that represents no one but itself.

The occupation’s use of gangs that are socially and morally fallen and outside the law, turning them into tools for carrying out imaginary projects in the Gaza Strip, reflects the level of helplessness it has reached in the face of the heroic steadfastness of our people and their valiant resistance.

We affirm that the occupation, which failed to protect its collaborators, will not be able to protect any of its agents, and that the fate of anyone who tampers with the security of his people and serves their enemy is to fall into the trash heap of history and lose all respect and standing in society.

The unity of our people, with its families, tribes, clans, and national institutions, will remain the safety valve against all attempts to damage our internal fabric, and will never serve as a shelter for criminal gangs or suspicious projects, regardless of who stands behind them."

Israeli-linked spyware company Intellexa, founded by former Israeli intelligence officer Tal Dilian, was exposed for deploying Predator spyware that silently hacks smartphones worldwide. This is what Netanyahu means by: “If you have a phone, you’re holding a piece of Israel.”

Investigations by Haaretz, Inside Story, WAV Research Collective, and Amnesty International reveal that Intellexa used malicious digital ads to infect phones: simply viewing the ad could trigger the attack. Once infected, operators gained full access to the camera, microphone, chats, emails, GPS, photos, files, and browsing history.

Despite Intellexa being sanctioned by the US, they're still operating.

Leaked internal documents and training videos (“Intellexa Leaks”) show that:

➤ Intellexa built “delivery vectors” that trick the phone into opening infection links without the user clicking, creating near–zero-click attacks.
➤ All stolen data was funneled through a hidden “CNC Anonymization Network” to mask the operator.
➤ Intellexa staff kept remote access to government surveillance systems, letting them view live spying operations and victims’ data.
➤ Advertisement-based infection methods (ADINT) are now being developed by multiple spyware firms and used by governments.

Amnesty warns that such silent, ad-driven exploits will expand as people avoid unknown links and true zero-click attacks grow more expensive. Tech companies and ad networks must urgently act to detect and disrupt these attacks.

Rights group warns that Israel is advancing a plot to kill abducted Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti
——
The Palestinian Prisoners’ Society (PPS) has warned that intensified assaults on Marwan Barghouti reveal a dangerous intention by the Tel Aviv authorities to eliminate him. The group said these actions amount to a grave crime and a clear violation of international humanitarian law, urging the United Nations and global institutions to act without delay. Barghouti’s family received an anonymous call from an Israeli number confirming he had been violently attacked in custody, leaving him with critical injuries, including the severing of part of his ear and multiple fractures.

The Palestinian Commission of Detainees’ and Ex-Detainees’ Affairs said the call has caused widespread distress, noting that efforts to reestablish contact with the caller have failed. It vowed to work with Palestinian officials to investigate the specifics of the assault and verify Barghouti’s condition. The Asra Media Office added that recent intimidation targeting his family reflects a broader pattern of pressure, citing continued isolation, torture, denial of visits, and threats from Israeli minister Itamar Ben Gvir as further evidence of a systematic effort to endanger his life.

The AMO placed full responsibility on Israel for Barghouti’s safety and the well-being of all prisoners, calling on the United Nations, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and human rights organizations to intervene and launch an independent investigation. It said the international community’s silence enables the continued offenses inside Israeli prisons. Barghouti, a 66-year-old senior Fatah leader seen by many Palestinians as a potential successor to President Mahmoud Abbas, has been imprisoned since 2002 on charges he rejects and does not recognize as legitimate.

On March 9, 2025, US permanent resident and Columbia University graduate student was abducted without charge or trial and sent off to a shady Louisiana site on White House orders over his protests for Columbia to divest from Israel's war crimes.

From DropSite:

NEW YORK CITY—On Saturday night, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents entered a student residential building at Columbia University in uptown New York and detained Mahmoud Khalil, one of the lead negotiators on behalf of pro-Palestine protesters at 2024’s Gaza solidarity encampment. In a sweeping attack on the First Amendment, the Trump administration said this week it would begin revoking visas of “Hamas sympathizers,” specifically citing Columbia University students. The detention followed a two-day targeted online campaign against Khalil by pro-Israel groups and individuals, including Columbia’s high-profile pro-Israel professor, Shai Davidai.

Khalil, an Algerian citizen of Palestinian origin and an American green-card holder, was detained by DHS officials around half past eight as he was entering the Columbia residential building he lives in. He was returning from an iftar, breaking the day-long fast observed by many Muslims during the month of Ramadan.

Khalil’s wife, who is eight months pregnant, was with him at the time. A statement by the pro-Palestine group Writers Against the War on Gaza (WAWOG) stated that he was “abducted and detained without the physical demonstration of a warrant or officially filed charges.”

Khalil was detained at a DHS facility in New Jersey, according to a database for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But when his wife went to try and visit him she was informed he was not there. "He is not at the ICE facility in New Jersey. I can confirm he is not there,” Khalil’s attorney Amy Greer told Drop Site. "At this time, we have an idea [where he is] but we cannot confirm that 100%.”

According to WAWOG, the DHS agents told Khalil that the U.S. Department of State had revoked his student visa. The group said this was “despite the fact that he has a green card, not a visa, and is a lawful permanent resident.”

In response to a request for comment from Drop Site, the DHS first stated, “You need to reach out to the White House.”

U.S. Government and Private Groups Coordinated to Target Palestinian Student Activists, FOIA Filing Alleges

The Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) has filed a sweeping Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request on behalf of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian-American and lawful permanent resident who has been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) since March 8, 2025. The filing accuses federal agencies of colluding with private anti-Palestinian organizations to detain and deport student activists engaged in pro-Palestine advocacy, and seeks records from the Departments of Justice, Homeland Security, State, and ICE.






The Alleged Role of Private Anti-Palestinian Groups

The FOIA request names over a dozen groups accused of coordinating to surveil, doxx, and target pro-Palestine students—often focusing on noncitizens—in an effort to trigger deportation. The groups include:

➤ Betar USA: A militant Zionist group that created a “deport list” of student activists, including Khalil.

Didn't update this when it happened, but Mahmoud Khalil was released and is currently suing the Trump administration for tihs:

Mahmoud Khalil suing Trump admin for ‘politically motivated arrest, detention’
Mahmoud Khalil, the former Columbia University graduate student who was detained as part of the Trump administration’s crackdown on pro-Palestine advocacy in the US, is seeking $20m “to help others similarly targeted”, his lawyers say.

“He would accept, in lieu of payment, an official apology and abandonment of the administration’s unconstitutional policy”, the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) said in a statement announcing the soon-to-be-filed lawsuit.

Khalil, who was released in June after more than three months in detention, was the first known activist to be detained and have his legal immigration status revoked by the Trump administration over involvement in student protests in support of Gaza.

“Nothing can restore the 104 days stolen from me. The trauma, the separation from my wife, the birth of my first child that I was forced to miss”, Khalil said in the CCR statement.

“There must be accountability for political retaliation and abuse of power. And I won’t stop here. I will continue to pursue justice against everyone who contributed to my unlawful detention or spread lies in an attempt to destroy my reputation, including those affiliated with Columbia University”, he said.

“I’m holding the US government accountable not just for myself, but for everyone they try to silence through fear, exile, or detention”.

Judge questions ICE over Turkish PhD student targeted for Pro-Palestine speech
——
A US federal judge sharply questioned the Trump administration’s continued refusal to restore the student status of Rümeysa Öztürk, a Turkish PhD candidate at Tufts University who was detained after engaging in pro-Palestine activism. Chief Judge Denise Casper said she was “struggling” to understand why Immigration and Customs Enforcement terminated Öztürk’s record in the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS) shortly after she co-authored an op-ed criticizing Tufts’ response to the genocide in Gaza.

Öztürk was arrested on 25 March, the same day her SEVIS status was deleted and her visa revoked, and detained for 45 days until a federal judge ordered her release, finding she had raised a substantial First Amendment retaliation claim. Although she has since returned to her studies, ICE’s refusal to reinstate her SEVIS record has barred her from teaching or working as a research assistant, jeopardizing her academic progress in the final stretch before graduation.

Her attorneys argue the government’s shifting explanations stand in stark contrast to its reversal of mass SEVIS terminations for thousands of other foreign students earlier this year.

At Thursday’s hearing, Judge Casper pressed ICE to justify its discretion, as the ACLU contends the agency targeted Öztürk specifically for protected political speech. The government argues it may update SEVIS to reflect visa revocations and removal proceedings, while Öztürk’s lawyers say the visa only governs entry and does not invalidate her lawful student status. They describe the SEVIS termination as one of several retaliatory actions taken against her for expressing pro-Palestinian views.

Maduro activates Bolivarian National Militia in response to US “threats”, vowing to defend the country’s sovereignty and independence.
President Nicolás Maduro announced on Monday, August 18, that he is activating “over 4.5 million militia members across the entire national territory” of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, in response to the US deployment of three Navy guided-missile destroyers and 4,000 military personnel to the Caribbean. The White House has described the deployment as an anti-drug trafficking operation in the region, while some analysts have called it a new threat against Venezuela – the country with the largest oil reserves in the world.

The US military deployment comes after Washington raised its bounty on the Venezuelan president from USD 25 million to USD 50 million, alleging links to drug cartels.

The “extravagant, bizarre, and outlandish threats” of the United States have been firmly rejected by the Venezuelan government.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Yván Gil described the accusations as a sign of desperation, revealing Washington’s “lack of credibility and the failure of its policies in the region”. He also pointed out that Venezuela has made major gains against drug trafficking after expelling the United States’ Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) – who many Venezuelans call “the planet’s chief drug traffickers” – from the country in 2005.

No US agency or international body has produced concrete evidence of drug production and distribution being concentrated in Venezuela or linked to Maduro. In fact, available global drug data makes almost no mention of the Caribbean nation or the alleged “Cartel of Suns” at all. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the epicenter of activity is in Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru, with the US identified as the main destination for distribution, recording the highest level of drug consumption in the world.

UNODC data reports that only 5% of Colombian drugs transit through Venezuela, and that the country is free of coca leaf cultivation, and marijuana and cocaine processing. The Trump administration, on the other hand, has maintained its position that the Venezuelan government is a “narco-terror cartel”.

It still makes some degree of sense because Russia could have done far worse Ukraine years ago if they had used all the military tools at their disposal and did things like decapitation strikes. The point was never to completely obliterate Ukraine though, it was to dismantle the Ukrainian military and exhaust NATO's arms supplies.

It's coming in days. Weeks tops. Since the end of the 12 day long Imposed War, the US & Israel have been recuperating, eagerly scheming another attack on Iran since the last one backfired. The EU has played along with this scheme, collaborating with the US and Israel to restore sanctions against Iran, a continued act of aggressive economic warfare.

U.S. Secretary of "Defense" Pete Hegseth has recently called an "unprecedented" number of high ranking U.S. military officials to meet in Virginia for an undisclosed purpose, and in the same week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump.

This is a thread for discussing this war as soon as it kicks off, and the lead-up to it.

MintPress News: An Iran-affiliated hacking group named Handala recently claimed responsibility for placing a bouquet of flowers inside the car of a senior Israeli nuclear scientist.

The "Handala for Justice and Popular Resistance" group announced on Telegram that its operatives accessed a senior Israeli nuclear scientist's vehicle and left a bouquet in a clay vase, along with a note.

The accompanying note read, "You received our bouquet. A harmless object, at first glance. But you noticed its weight, didn't you?".

This served as a psychological intimidation tactic, suggesting the group had close access.

The action was reportedly timed to coincide with the anniversary of Israel's assassination of Iranian nuclear physicist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh in November 2020.

Israeli comptroller blasts Defense Ministry over neglect of critical infrastructure impacted by Iran war
——
According to the Jerusalem Post, State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman has accused the Defense Ministry, the Israeli military, and the National Security Council of failing to implement physical defenses for Israel’s critical infrastructure, leaving sites vulnerable to missile attacks.

During the June war, Iranian ballistic strikes hit locations including Beersheba’s medical center, the Haifa Bazan oil refinery, and laboratories at the Weizmann Institute. Englman noted that these vulnerabilities were first flagged in 2011 and highlighted in a 2020 report, yet nearly all recommendations have been ignored.

Englman stressed that physical defenses are distinct from Israel’s air-defense systems, which, while effective, are not foolproof. He argued that the lack of mapping of critical sites, absence of legal frameworks for protection, unclear funding responsibilities, and political gridlock have all hindered progress.

The report criticizes the Defense Ministry for deflecting responsibility between divisions, slow responses during wartime, and ignoring NSC deadlines.

Syrian rebels enter Aleppo three days into surprise offensive
Insurgents had recaptured territory around Syria’s second city with civilians including children killed in fighting

Islamist insurgents have entered Syria’s second city of Aleppo in a shock assault, eight years after forces loyal to Damascus seized control of the city.

Fighters from Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) began a major offensive earlier this week from their base in the Idlib countryside, a slim strip of land in Syria’s north-west. It took only three days for the fighting to reach Aleppo, with insurgents capturing territory around the city’s outskirts for the first time in four years as Syrian government forces pummelled rebel-held areas.

Turkey’s Anadolu state news agency reported on Friday afternoon that the insurgents had entered Aleppo, while unverified images and video circulating online showed armoured vehicles and armed uniformed militants on its streets. The Associated Press said residents reported hearing missiles striking its outskirts.

The fighting over the last three days had killed 27 civilians, including eight children, David Carden, the UN deputy regional humanitarian coordinator for the Syria crisis, told Reuters.

The rebels have rapidly recaptured dozens of towns and villages in the Aleppo countryside, seizing a military base, weaponry and tanks from Syrian government forces, while some Turkish-backed Syrian rebel groups based elsewhere in north-west Syria joined the fighting.

The UN said Syrian government forces based in Damascus carried out at least 125 airstrikes and shelled areas across Idlib and western Aleppo controlled by the rebels in response to the offensive, killing at least 12 civilians and wounding 46 others, and displacing 14,000 people.

Five killed in huge ammunition dump blast in Syrian town of Kafr Takharim
A massive explosion has rocked the town of Kafr Takharim in Syria’s Idlib province, killing at least five people

A huge explosion rocked the town of Kafr Takharim in Idlib province in northwestern Syria on Wednesday, killing five people and injuring nine others, The New Arab's affiliate Syria TV reported.

Activists shared videos on the X showing a massive smoke cloud rising from Kafr Takharim with initial reports of tens injuries.

Syria TV said the explosion that was due to an ammunition depot exploding, after initial reports speculated that it could have been the result of an airstrike by the US-led international coalition against the Islamic State group.

Many olive trees in the surrounding area were also destroyed, according to Syria TV, and the casualties included workers working in olive tree fields.

Arms and ammunition depot explosions are common in Syria, which has been the scene of brutal conflict for 14 years and where weapons are often not properly secured, while bombs have also detonated as they are stripped down for scrap metal.

Last July, an arms depot belonging to the Turkistan Islamic Party - an armed group made up of Uyghurs who fled to Syria from China - exploded in the town of Maaret Misrin killing 12 people and injuring over 100.

A Case for Baʿathist Syria as the Most Successful Socialist State in History

To argue that Baʿathist Syria represented the most successful form of socialism, one can claim that Syria achieved something rare among socialist-oriented states: durable national cohesion, economic stability under siege, social development gains, and an independent geopolitical posture without collapsing into internal famine, economic implosion, or wholesale dependency on a superpower.

This argument can be framed in several pillars:

1. Long-Term Stability and Sovereignty

Where many socialist projects collapsed (e.g., USSR, Yugoslavia, most Arab socialist regimes), Syria’s Baʿathist state:

Survived from 1963 onward, maintaining state continuity for decades.

Withstood intense regional pressures: war with Israel, isolation by the West, sanctions, and the Iran–Iraq War spillover.

Never became a satellite of either Cold War bloc.

German–Syrian activist urges Berlin to keep asylum as Syria’s new rulers face abuse claims
——
Chancellor Friedrich Merz says Syrians no longer need asylum after Assad’s fall, but Tareq Alaow of Pro Asyl warns Syria is still unsafe.

He says hopes after Assad’s ouster collapsed once Ahmad al-Sharaa, formerly Mohammad al-Julani, took power, accusing the new authorities of targeting minorities, LGBTQ+ people, and women. UN figures report about 1,400 civilians killed in March clashes with Alawite communities, alongside torture and sectarian killings. Similar abuses were later documented against Druze areas.

Sharaa, once under a $10 million US bounty, is now internationally recognized. Tareq says world powers are “legitimizing jihadists,” warning this could spark a new refugee wave.

He insists deportations “won’t work,” saying Syrians flee violence, not Europe’s policies. Real returns require safety and accountability, conditions he says do not exist in a country awash with weapons and renewed persecution.

Hello /leftypol/, we noticed an under-appreciation for the theory that upholds our political ideologies: As such, we have decided to revive the reading sticky! This thread will be dedicated to the sharing, discussing, and general banter about various leftist thinkers, theories, and political outlooks.

But, other than that, we believe there are other important reads that must be addressed, especially, for beginners and those just now getting into leftism.
