MAGA Regime’s Call For War Crimes Accelerates Military Dissent

April 14, 2026 John Catalinotto, Workers World. , , ,
April 12 — U.S. bombs and rockets stopped hitting Iran for the last five days after the White House’s threat to erase Iranian civilization was put on hold for a quick U.S. retreat. But by April 12 the new U.S. plan to block the Strait of Hormuz put war back on Washington’s agenda. The last week exposed the contradictions on many levels in the imperialist part of the world: between the U.S. and its NATO allies; between the MAGA forces and other sectors of the U.S. ruling class, including its Democratic Party rivals; between the MAGA political summits and the U.S. Armed Forces.

Soldiers Are Taking A Stand Against Trump’s Abuses

Kim, an aircraft mechanic, joined the military in 2019, at age 18. She and her mother had struggled to survive, even living in their car at times. She didn’t think she could afford college, so she didn’t apply. Like so many young Americans in that situation, she enlisted “to get a stable paycheck, a roof over my head, food in my stomach at the end of the day.” Deployed only once, Kim spent most of her time on base, but she enjoyed the routine: waking up early for 15-hour workdays, staying up late to earn an associate’s degree, making lifelong friends and “amazing mentors.” But in 2024, she began to worry about what a new administration might ask the military to do.
