US and Zionists Resume All-Out War, The People Unite for Peace and Liberation!

Israel resumes the genocide and unilaterally ends the Ceasefire

The US-backed Zionist entity has resumed its genocidal war on Gaza, killing children, babies, women, and men, with intense airstrikes still ongoing. Over 100 airplanes have dropped US-made bombs on Palestinians in schools, refugee camps, mosques and residential buildings. As of the 18th of March, Gaza's Civil Defense spokesperson, Mahmoud Basal, stated that over 400 people have been martyred, while between 300 to 600 others have been injured, warning that many may succumb to their wounds due to the severity of their injuries. All this less than 2 weeks after the US sent $12 Billion in Foreign Military Financing to line the pockets of war manufacturers arming the Zionist entity tooth and nail.

Since the Ceasefire was declared in January the Zionist entity has repeatedly violated it, killing at least 155 Palestinians through airstrikes and blocking all humanitarian aid from entering the Gaza Strip, while bragging openly to the international public about doing so. Counter to Netanyahu's blatant lies "that Hamas refused every deal aimed at securing a truce and prisoner releases, leaving Israel with no choice but to restart its campaign," the united Palestinian resistance organizations announced that communication with mediators is ongoing and that it is keen to complete the implementation of the Gaza ceasefire deal. When the Palestinian resistance pointed out the violations of the ceasefire agreement and refused to continue the release of Zionist settler hostages until the regime carried out their end of the agreed-upon deal, the Zionists, in collaboration with the US, spread lies about the Resistance’s actions, painting them as the ones holding up the ceasefire agreements despite clear adherence on the part of the resistance every step of the way. In truth, the Resistance has not once violated the ceasefire agreements nor retaliated against the Zionist war criminals. Israel systematically undermined ceasefire negotiations to justify restarting its genocidal war to further escalate the occupation.

This month was also marked by rifts in US-Israel relations. For the first time the US engaged in secret direct negotiations with Hamas without Israel with the objective to secure the release of US soldier prisoners and explore longer term agreements. Following the exclusion of Israel from the negotiating table, Netanyahu actively worked to derail the US deal to secure the release of US soldiers. An Israeli insider admitted, “We were shocked and never expected the US to go this far.” This signals the deepening crisis of the Zionist entity as the Palestinian resistance continues to be steadfast in the fight against the colonial project, and the Israel genocidal war on the Palestinian people continues to become increasingly unpopular amongst Israelis and the international community, with ongoing protests against war profiteers and in support of the Palestinian people continuing around the world.

Israel's expansion and occupation in Syria and Lebanon

In addition to violating the Gaza ceasefire, Israel has continued to violate the ceasefire with Lebanon every single day since signing it November 2024. They have continued to occupy the South of Lebanon while killing dozens and destroying homes even after they were rebuilt. This has been to keep Hezbollah from continuing its solidarity strikes against the Zionist entity to stop the genocide of Gaza, even though Hezbollah has been focused solely on helping Lebanese communities in the South rebuild from Israel's recent invasion.
At the same time, Israel continues to illegally occupy and destroy swaths of Syria. Israel destroyed over half the military infrastructure of the Syrian government, even as Bashar al-Assad's forces were being overthrown by US- and Turkish-backed Salafist paramilitaries in December. Israel's illegal destruction of Syrian infrastructure along the entire Southern part of the country also gives a free pathway for invading Iran, and Israel has openly claimed this is their ultimate goal. It also immediately expanded the occupation of the Golan Heights to Mt. Herman, Syria's highest peak, and has used it for surveillance and strategic planning ever since.

The new Syrian regime has continued the violence that Syria has seen nonstop for over a decade, under complete support from the US. It has targeted ethnic minorities, especially Alawites. A total of 4,711 civilians have been killed, including 1,805 executed on the battlefield, since the regime came to power on December 8th. Israel inflamed tensions between the regime and Druze religious minority, helping install a Druze separatist group in the new areas of Syria it now occupies. This has allowed Israel to control more Syrian land around Palestine and Lebanon while the country's people suffer from ethnic violence. In this way, Israel engineered a situation where the anti-Hezbollah Jolanni regime initiated border clashes with Hezbollah and Lebanese military along the Southeastern Lebanese border, near Hezbollah's stronghold, aiming to deter Hezbollah from being able to intervene and continue its assault against the US-Zionist entity.

US retaliation against Yemeni resistance

The US's imperialist aims in the region become even more clear with its response to Yemen’s blockade of commercial ships into Zionist ports so as to break the siege and genocide. For leading the world in showing what it really means to boycott and sanction Israel, and for causing severe damage to the economy of the Zionist entity, Trump ordered the US military to launch airstrikes against Yemen, killing 50 people already with hundreds more injured. Contrary to his election promises of bringing peace, Trump ranted on his private social media site Truth Social, "We will use overwhelming lethal force ... hell will rain down upon you like nothing you have ever seen before." Unfazed, Yemen's ruling Ansar Allah movement struck back, targeting the aircraft carrier USS Harry Truman with cruise missiles and drones, continuing the months-long confrontation that US Central Command has called its most intensive naval operations since the end of World War 2.

All out against the Zionist onslaught in West Asia!

As long as the US can rely on Israel as an outpost for US imperialism in the region, they will fund, back and defend the genocide against Palestine and regional aggression of Israel whatever the cost. While Trump aspires for seaside resorts on the graves of a rebuilt Gaza, Netanyahu aspires to expand the zionist project to "Greater Israel." Ultimately US and Israeli moves in the region, while not fully moving at the same pace, serve the same purpose - to conquer the whole of West Asia, which can only be done by completing the genocide of Palestine. Israel's expansionist aggression is only exposing more and more its essence as a genocidal project, and forces across the region are rising against it every day. Meanwhile, the anti-war movement must continue to struggle for an end to the occupation beyond any ceasefire deal that the US and Israel have always intended to violate. We must keep fighting against every front of US-Led war and mobilize all out to join the Palestinian people for the full realization of their rights and liberation on their historic land. ​
