For almost two weeks, protests and blockades against high fuel prices caused upheaval in Ireland: major roads were blocked, along with key fuel supply nodes. While the disruption of oil prices caused by the illegal war launched by the United States and Israel on Iran might have been the immediate trigger of the discontent, the reaction on the streets was the expression of much deeper and long-standing anger. In an interview with BreakThrough News, Sinn Féin MP Chris Hazzard pointed out that rural areas of Ireland had been particularly hard-hit by underfunding and underdevelopment of public services, including transport, leaving them cut off and living through the worst effects of growing inequities.

Marta Jiménez, a hairdresser in Cuba’s eastern city of Holguín, covered her face with her hands and broke down crying when I asked her about Trump’s blockade of the island — especially now that the U.S. is choking off oil shipments. “You can’t imagine how it touches every part of our lives,” she sobbed. “It’s a vicious, all-encompassing spiral downward. With no gasoline, buses don’t run, so we can’t get to work. We have electricity only three to six hours a day. There’s no gas for cooking, so we’re burning wood and charcoal in our apartments. It’s like going back 100 years.”

The war on Syria is no longer front page news, but it has never ended. Currently, the United States and its allies are placing enormous pressure on the Syrian people in an effort to topple the Syrian government. The goal is not just to replace Bashar Assad with a President more conciliatory to western goals, but rather to break the country into small semi-autonomous states so it can never again be a center of resistance to Israeli and U.S. Domination. the latest efforts involve a western media campaign promoting and exaggerating the unrest in southern Syria. In 2011, heavily armed U.S. backed terrorists flooded Syria, committing murder and mayhem across the nation.
