Global Palestine Rises To Defeat Global Israel

February 9, 2026 Adrienne Pine, Popular Resistance. Strategize! Dockworkers, ICE, Israel, Italy, Olympics, Palestine, Student Activism, Working Class

The key to developing a good strategy is knowing your enemy. Friday’s actions were important precisely that because they stem from a clear understanding of how Zionist imperialism works. Some years ago Palestinian scholar Magid Shihade introduced the concept of Global Israel. One key element of his multifaceted theory is that that in order to maintain its genocidal project in Palestine, Israel has infringed on the basic human rights of people everywhere, and has worked to prevent nations from exercising their own sovereignty through replicating its settler colonial governance techniques and technologies around the world.

Iran’s Comprehensive Peace Proposal To The United States

February 9, 2026 Jeffrey Sachs and Sybil Fares, Scheer Post. Strategize! Diplomacy, Iran, Peace, Wars and Militarism

History occasionally presents moments when the truth about a conflict is stated plainly enough that it becomes impossible to ignore. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi’s February 7 address in Doha, Qatar (transcript here) should prove to be such a moment. His important and constructive remarks responded to the US call for comprehensive negotiations, and he laid out a sound proposal for peace across the Middle East. Last week, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called for comprehensive negotiations: “If the Iranians want to meet, we’re ready.”

A Swedish Answer To Labor’s $8 Trillion Question

February 9, 2026 Otto Barenberg, On Labor. Strategize! Labor Movement, Pensions, Sweden, Unions, wealth inequality, Worker Rights

It may come as a surprise that a substantial portion of America’s economy is worker- and union-owned — technically. Private sector and public sector union members’ pension funds collectively manage roughly $8 trillion in worker savings. That’s nearly 15% of Wall Street. But those funds — comprising the monthly contributions of millions of workers and enabled (in part) by union organizing and collective bargaining — are often invested in (and by) firms that harm workers. The labor movement has long tried to harness the economic power tied up in its vast stores of capital: labor’s “last best weapon.”

The EPA’s Zero Sum Game Surfaces A Dialectical Paradox

February 7, 2026 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Corporatism, Ecocide, Environmental Justice, EPA, Systemic Racism

Kali Akuno, founder of Jackson, Mississippi-based Cooperation Jackson, reminds us in his book Jackson Rising Redux, “To deal with the crisis of Black labor redundancy, the US ruling class has responded by creating a multipronged strategy of limited incorporation [see also the Black Misleadership class, the cooniferous Congressional Black Caucus, and other elements of the Black petty bourgeois], counterinsurgency [i.e. crushing, dividing, and severely weakening and elite capturing of Black-led organizations], and mass containment [vis a vis mass incarceration and the prison industrial complex]."

Cuba Must Not Fall!

February 6, 2026 Isaac Saney, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Cuba, Economic Blockade, Revolution, Socialism

The struggle to defend the Cuban Revolution—to preserve Cuba’s independence, sovereignty, and right to self-determination—is not simply the struggle of a small Caribbean nation resisting a powerful neighbour. Nor is it confined to the geographical contours of an island of eleven million people. It is, rather, a struggle with profound and incalculable consequences for Latin America, the Caribbean, and the global fight for justice, human dignity, and the right of peoples to live free from imperialist diktat. What is at stake in Cuba has never been merely Cuba itself.

On Collapse And The Need For A Non-Bureaucratic Temporality

February 4, 2026 Yavor Tarinski, Resilience. Strategize! climate crisis, collapse, Local Assemblies, Transformation

How are we to think of the future? A future that by all accounts seem to be an uncertain one, to say the least.[2] This is a question of immense importance as no movement forward can be made without some degree of thought and planning. But to plan ahead is not that easy when immersed in a bureaucratic culture, shaped by capitalism and statecraft, that incentivizes people to be short-sighted due to the primacy of the profit-motive and the thirst for power. That’s why it is important to meditate on what prevents our societies from conducting a serious dialogue on what awaits us in the future, and what can be done to prepare for a potential societal and environmental collapse, provoked by the current dominant politico-economic system.

Socialism Much More Than Just An Idea

February 4, 2026 Rossana Cambron, People's World. Strategize! Capitalism, Democracy, New Economy, Socialism

Socialism is both a political and economic theory and a historical stage in human development. As capitalism continues to squeeze profits from workers, more people become aware of who truly produces society’s wealth—and who benefits from their labor. This growing awareness raises a critical question: if capitalism creates unbearable conditions for the majority, what comes next? At its core, socialism advocates for social ownership and democratic control of the means of production. This means that major resources and industries—such as factories, land, energy, and transportation—are owned and managed collectively, rather than by private individuals or corporations.

How To Debunk Anti-Immigrant Myths At Work

February 4, 2026 Natascha Elena Uhlmann, Labor Notes. Strategize! Immigrants, Propaganda, Unions, Workplace

Anti-immigrant myths flood our airwaves. They dominate news cycles and our online feeds. And now they’re amplified from the highest halls of power. President Donald Trump has asserted, for example, that millions of immigrants came to the U.S. “from jails, from prisons, from insane asylums,” a claim one expert found “too ridiculous to dignify.” The lies spread like wildfire. Corrections, if they’re issued at all, fade into the background. Trump’s baseless claim that Haitian immigrants were eating people’s pets in Springfield, Ohio, prompted bomb threats against Springfield schools.

José Martí: Building A Revolutionary Movement For Independence

February 2, 2026 Sharon Black, Struggle - La Lucha. Strategize! Cuba, Jose Marti, Revolution, Working Class

Jose Martí’s revolutionary consciousness did not emerge in a vacuum; it was forged in the harsh crucible of colonial Cuba. Born in Havana to a Spanish artillery sergeant and a Canary Islands native, he witnessed from his earliest years the brutal contradictions of the slave-owning colony. His humble family moved from the city to the countryside, where the young Martí saw firsthand the inhumanity of the plantation system. This direct, visceral exposure to the violence of chattel slavery planted the seeds of his lifelong, uncompromising abolitionism.

‘Why Don’t You Criticize Iran??’

February 1, 2026 Caitlin Johnstone. Strategize! Iran, Media, Political Education, US Imperialism

Any time things heat up with an empire-targeted government I always get people demanding to know why I’m not critical of that government. “Why don’t you criticize Iran? You spend all your time criticizing the west and Israel; you’re a hypocrite if you don’t criticize Iran.” It flabbergasts them that I’m not saying harsh things about the latest Official Bad Guy of the Day. Everyone on TV is criticizing Iran. Both mainstream political parties are criticizing Iran. Their favorite mainstream political podcasters and online pundits are criticizing Iran. So why isn’t Caitlin Johnstone criticizing Iran? There must be something nefarious and treasonous about her.

The Hardest Part Of Fighting Fascism Comes After The Fascists Fall

February 1, 2026 Joel Westheimer, Truthout. Strategize! Anti-fascism, Argentina, Democracy, Fascism, History

I lived in Argentina in the mid-1980s, just after the fall of the brutal military dictatorship that ruled from 1976 to 1983. The country was taking its first, shaky steps back toward democracy. It was a time of great hope, but also of grave uncertainty — because while the generals were gone, the political culture that enabled them remained. Like most of the nation, I was captivated by the pioneering trials of the military generals that promised to restore justice. But watching the trials, reading the commentary, and witnessing the national response, it became increasingly clear that after a dictatorship collapses, its shadow lingers. Institutions that propped it up may be quick to pivot but slow to reform.

Data Center Boom, Corporate Extraction, And The Obfuscation Of The Land Question

January 31, 2026 Austin Cole, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Data Centers, Extraction, Land Reform, Sovereignty

The years 2024 and 2025 saw a massive upswing in the number of data centers planned and constructed in the United States and globally as part of the race to develop computing infrastructure for “Artificial Intelligence” technologies. 2025 also witnessed a massive increase in protests, lawsuits, and movements against data center construction throughout the U.S., with at least 25 data center projects cancelled across the United States (four times the number in 2024) in 2025, and up to 25 more canceled in the first three weeks of 2026.

Latin America Pushes Back Against US Intervention

January 31, 2026 Medea Benjamin, Scheer Post. Podcast – WTF is Going on in Latin America & the Caribbean, Strategize! Donroe Doctrine, Latin America, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism

When Senator Tim Kaine told Secretary of State Marco Rubio at a recent Senate hearing on Venezuela that the administration’s announcement of a new Monroe Doctrine “does not land well in the Americas,” he was putting it mildly. I just returned from an emergency gathering in Bogotá on January 24-25 with about 90 delegates from 20 countries, where speaker after speaker denounced the open revival of this doctrine — and its companion, the so-called Trump Corollary or “Donroe Doctrine” based on raw coercion— as a blatant, illegal, and reprehensible interference in their internal affairs.

How To Spread The General Strike Beyond The Twin Cities

January 31, 2026 Stephanie Luce, Labor Notes. Strategize! General Strike, ICE, Minnesota, Unions

On January 23, Minnesota unions and community organizations seized the public imagination with “a Day of Truth and Freedom,” an economic blackout that drew perhaps 100,000 marchers to downtown Minneapolis. The Twin Cities have been under siege from federal agents since December. Minnesotans have formed dense networks from the bottom up to patrol neighborhoods, feed the hungry, and train everyday people to scout for rampaging Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents hunting for their immigrant and citizen neighbors. They upped the ante by organizing a general strike with political demands to oust ICE out of their state, deny it any additional federal funding, and hold legally accountable the officer who killed Renee Good.
