Still, I suppose it shows that “socialist” is no longer a dirty word to many in America.

That is what this group has indicated in this article. It used to be the expression of Alan Johnston too when Bernie Sanders was running his campaign to be president but he moved to the right when he started to support Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, and he lost popularity among the young workers .
The Democrats Party also made opposition to Bernie Sander, and they will make opposition to this Social Democrat. Despite the fact that this is not a real socialist movement, the ruling class is afraid that a real movement might be spread among the workers, and form their own political party and leave the Democratic Party.
Donald Trump has called him a 100% communist lunatic, but he is not a communist, as well, the political party behind him is not a communist party either. There had been many candidates and movements like this one in Latin America, Europe, and Africa from political party that are members of the Bernstein socialist international, and some presidential candidates were promoted by the USA, because they knew that they are just Trojan horses within the working class movement. There was a political institute and group in Costa Rica during the 60 that promoted this type of reforms. They were working class movement firemen .

Donald Trump has changed his stand on NATO, he is now supporting NATO, and he is going to send Patriots missiles to Ukraine. He is supporting the war like Joe Biden, even more, he is moving further because Biden did not want to approve long range missiles for Ukraine. Democrats on the House of representative blocked the impeachment against Trump
Another so called socialist that is going to see that capitalism can not be reformed to satisfy the needs of the vast majority of the members of the working class

Now, Donald Trump supports NATO, and he openly support wars contradicting his campaign promise

Like George Bush said: Mission Accomplished, and they spent almost ten years in Iraq, and several billions of dollars were spent, several thousands of human beings were killed, and they were defeated like in Vietnam . Al-Qaeda was never destroyed
The bunkers in Iran were not destroyed despite all the Bunkers buster bombs that were exploded, only tactical bombs or mini nukes can destroy those bunkers. If they destroyed those bunkers the first time, why did they have to be bombed again ?
And yet France today, contrasting with its approach to the Ukraine situation, has condemned Israel (?)
——————————————————————–
Ukraine had their own nuclear bombs too, and Gaddafi returned the detonators.
Iraq was invaded because they did not have any WMD and despite all the power of the US armed forces they were defeated, and the Taliban are controlling Afghanistan again
This conflict is going to motivate all rulers in the Middle East to obtain their own nuclear bombs, and others world powers are going to help them to obtain the technology,
Nuclear technology it is not a secret any more, and it is not a secret that Israel is the only atomic power in the middle East, even more, some of Trump closer collaborators have said that Israel has nuclear bombs.
Iran said that they are willing to negotiate but they want to have their own nuclear program, and according to some sources they kept the nuclear materials and the centrifuges.
The US can not exlusively kick ass anymore like they were doing after WW 2, there are others powers who know how to do that too and China is expanding its tentacles on its own backyard
Brazil is a member of the NPT but they have the technology and the know how to make their own nuclear bombs, they have their own expansionist ambitions like any other capitalist state
Trump’s Surprise Attack on Iran Deepens US Imperial Entanglements
Surprise attack on Iran deepen US imperial entanglements . IMHO
Do not attack the messenger, analysis the message
Israel’s Nuclear Deception: Flagrant Lies and Brazen Hypocrisy
Israel was a young nation, by the mid-1950s, with the aid of France, it had secretly begun the construction of a large nuclear reactor. That two allies had teamed up to launch a nuclear weapons program without the knowledge of the administration of President Dwight D. Eisenhower turned out to be a colossal (and embarrassing) American intelligence failure.
Donald trump has announced a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, but the Iranian has said that they have not made any deal yet

Iran refutes Trump’s claims of ceasefire deal with Israel, but signals readiness to end hostilities: Live updates
The International Communist Current has branches in different countries and they started in France
The International Marxist humanist Organization started a few months ago and they have several branches in the USA, and correspondents in different countries, they publish articles almost every day, and they have public meeting every months, and they have peoples that speaks several languages. They publish books and they are always looking for new members and they are getting young peoples
WSWS has a daily podcast and they publish new articles every day and they have a newspaper that is publish in different languages, and they have correspondent in different places around the world. They have a newspaper that covers several countries in Latin America
RCP is always recruiting young peoples and they give public conferences, and they are always on the street protesting on every marches and events, they have bookstores and libraries at the stores
CPUSA has offices in different places and offices in the USA and a big mansion where they provide classess to the community, and a weekly newspaper and they have many writers and journalists
The CPCML used to print a daily newspaper of the same size of the Washington Post and the New York, they were sold on news stands
The SPGB does not have the manpower and the resources to do that, and it is not projecting itself toward other countries and other nationalities or ethnic groups, it might follows the same route of the SLP of America
Those are only attachments to obtain background informations from an old conflict, it does not make any difference if Iran, or whoever are, were puppets of the imperialist powers, the main concept are the workers, to show to them that supporting their rulers, and ruling class is not the proper choice, that wars are financed by the capitalists class, and the state is financed with surplus value, and that they do not own any country, or even a plot in the cemetery
I know that history, even more, the nuclear program of Iran was initiated during the regime of the shah of Iran under the collaboration of USA, Germany and France, and now those countries are after the new Iranian ruling class, and now Saudi Arabia is pressing the USA to get their own nuclear program, as France helped Israel to obtain the nuclear bombs and the Soviet Union helped North Korea
Brics is only a commercial cartel, like the South American trade cartel, and the G7, in essence they are all the same, Trump signed a treaty with Mexico and Canada and then he violated them, the capitalist always stick the knives against each other, Obama signed a treaty with Iran and it was violated, and he signed a treaty with Cuba and it was violated. As the apaches said: We have signed hundreds of treaty with the white men and all of them were violated, it is the same case of the capitalist, they always violate their own treaties and accords

When you have the desires and the motivation to learn something new, you will do it. The best source of information is the socialist party index, it is the curriculum or the textbook of an university of socialism.
I received one and I keep it like a treasure, and I went thru most of the articles, and pamphlets one by one, and I learned many new concepts several years ago, and I do appreciate the person that sent it to me, and I have great respect for him
There are poor workers around the whole world who do not computers or internet, but they have learned Marxism and socialist conceptions using the resources that they have.
Wordpress is not a good software for forums or publications, the best one is Group io, Podcast, or Mastodon. Reading and recording every month the articles of the Socialist Standard is a good choice
Facebook, blue social, tik tok, and twitter are craps, but they are the most popular one. Every carpenter has his/her own hammer and we have to use those hammers by the meantime.or like somebody else wrote: “if the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem has to look like a nail.”
The SPGB pamphlet on wars is more than enough, it just have to be updated, similar to the updating that Socialist Party did to the Communist Manifesto, it is much better than reading thousands of warmongers articles, videos, memes and photos published by left-wingers
