Public Forum – Trump’s Attacks on Gaza and Venezuela: A Socialist Response to US Imperialist Wars and Aggression

by Emmett Santisi – Workers’ Voice

Workers’ Voice will host a forum on Trump’s attacks on Gaza and Venezuela on Wednesday, Dec. 3 at Whitneyville Cultural Commons, 1247 Whitney Ave. in Hamden. At 5:30 p.m. we’ll have social time and food, and the program will start at  6 p.m. For more information, please email workersvoicect@protonmail.com. Cash donations are welcome.

At the same time, the Trump regime has launched multiple deadly strikes on vessels off the coast of Venezuela accusing the Maduro government of being a “narco-terror cartel,” they have also brokered a shaky rotten deal between Hamas and the Israeli government. Today Israel continues attacks on Gaza and has used the “ceasefire” as a pretext to launch attacks on Lebanon.

What is the role of US imperialism in the world and what does it have to gain from these attacks? In Gaza, what does the continued US support of Israel’s genocide against the Palestinians mean for international efforts to build solidarity? What is the role of Hamas and what is the way forward? In Venezuela does US imperialism see another opportunity to transfer power to Machado’s opposition party? Is Venezuela a “narco-terror cartel”? What happened to the movement started by Hugo Chávez and is this the logical outcome of Chavismo? What way forward for the people of Venezuela?

Join Workers’ Voice/La Voz de Los Trabajadores for this forum as we discuss these important questions that are deeply impacting working people across the globe.
