British Maoist Harry Powell writes on the recent riots in Britain. Harry argues that the riots were led by a lumpen element that has long preyed on working class communities. Here is an extract, the full article runs to 36 pages. The incident that sparked off the rioting was the police shooting Mark Duggan in Tottenham, North London on 4th. August. After an unsatisfactory response from the police to their inquiries the family and friends of Duggan held a protest outside a police station. This attracted other people and developed into more general disorder involving fighting with the police, damage to buildings and looting from shops. This sort of disorder spread to other areas of London and outside in cities such as Birmingham, Manchester and Nottingham. Just as suddenly as these outbursts had begun, they came to an abrupt end on 10th. August when the weather turned wet. As someone commented, “I don’t recollect that the Russian Revolution came to a sudden halt when the weather turned bad.” read full story / add a comment

Statehood or observational status.the Palestinians are being provoked to retaliate against the continued expansion of Israel into their territories, The illegal Separation Wall wall runs through farms , bisecting Palestinian farms - sure he can travel a couple of miles to get to the other side of his farm . The Israelis are in continuous violation of UN mandates every day . Yet the Israelis have a vote at the General Assembly of the UN . They are now trying to block the Palestinians from any form of alliance with the UN . The General assembly will ratify Palestine as as an observer country . And now at last Palestine will have it within her grasp to demand the return of illegal land grasp taken during the 1967 war. read full story / add a comment

An interesting article about the genuine and well founded fears of the Christian community in Syria. The possibility of a sectarian bloodbath is all too real. Just look at the example of Iraq. Also look at the Irish example: when loyalist demagogues in the six counties were rousing up Protestants against Catholics they also made sure that Protestant Socialists suffered in the pogroms. The same threat hangs over Syria. This is not a statement of support for Assad rather a reminder that if Assad goes and power falls into the hands of fundamentalists there is a risk of sectarian butchery. read full story / add a comment
