Germany is almost as internationally isolated as Israel. Despite new evidence submitted by South Africa to the International Court of Justice about Israel's crimes of genocide in Gaza, Germany continues to support and fund Israel's genocidal violence in the region.

On this day in 1918, revolutionary communist leader Karl Liebknecht declared Germany a Free Socialist Republic, saying “the day of the revolution has come.”
Inspired by the Bolshevik Revolution a year earlier, Germany’s uprising encompassed hundreds of thousands of workers, women, and soldiers. Many soldiers deserted the front after being fed up with being used as canon fodder by the rich.
The monarchy was abolished and workers’ councils swept the country. Women voted for the first time in German history.
Within weeks, the Social Democratic Party, which today rules Germany, collaborated with the paramilitary Freikorps to crush the revolution. They even bombed workers who participated in a general strike across Berlin. Leading members of the Freikorps were early Nazi Party members and the Freikorps itself would later be dissolved into the Nazi Party's paramilitary wing, the Sturmabteilung.

🟡 NEW: German police arrest internationally-wanted “High-Profile” Anti-Fascist in Thuringia. The man is accused of leading a group responsible for planning and carrying out attacks on fascists.
He is allegedly connected to the same group as Lina E., who is now in custody. Lina E. was sentenced to over five years in prison in 2023 for organizing similar attacks. The sentence sparked intense protests across Leipzig.
While Germany’s police intensify crackdowns on anti-fascists, leftists, and especially pro-Palestine activists, far-right crimes in the country continue to surge. Government records show that, as of 2023, at least 4,248 left-wing offenses were documented—while there were about 25,000 documented right-wing crimes.
Germany’s police force remains deeply infiltrated by far-right elements. Earlier this year, officials acknowledged that around 400 officers were identified as right-wing extremists. The real number is likely far higher.
The US Democrats ran the worst campaign in history, combining social liberalism with economic and foreign policy fascism, Nick Cruse of Revolutionary Blackout Network tells red. media.

Just as in Gaza, Israel is claiming that Lebanese people will be able to return to their homes after its “operations.” In reality, Israel in Lebanon has killed over 3,100 people, erased 37 villages, and destroyed more than 40,000 houses.

Zionist and Western politicians are crying wolf again. When they say that “pogroms” against Jews were conducted in Amsterdam, show them this video. Maccabi football club hooligans thought no one would mind their vitriolic stampede across the city, assaulting a taxi driver, desecrating Palestinian flags, and chanting about killing Arabs. They even blatantly disrespected a minute of silence for the victims of the floods in Valencia. In response, people in Amsterdam sprang to the defense of their city and the people of Palestine.

French resistance fighter, poet, journalist, and lifelong communist Madeleine Riffaud passed away yesterday at 100 years old. At 19 years old, she killed a Nazi in the middle of the streets in Paris. She was arrested, tortured, and narrowly escaped execution. She later commanded a unit that helped liberate Paris.
Riffaud went on to become one of France’s first anti-colonial activists, reporting on the Algerian and Vietnamese liberation wars. She survived an assassination attempt by the Organisation Armée Secrète (a far-right paramilitary group opposed to Algerian independence).
