The Socialist Labour Party condemns the military attack on Iran begun over the weekend by United States President Donald Trump acting in conjunction with the fascist state of Israel.
The bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities makes a mockery of US calls for the restoration of “negotiations in accordance with the plan agreed in 2015 between Iran and the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council plus Germany (the P5+1), a plan scrapped by Trump on 2018, during his first term as president.
This bombing not only violates international law but is In breach of the US Constitution as Trump has not even consulted the US Congress.
China, Russia, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea have condemned the United States for its appalling act of aggression. The Socialist Labour Party calls on all governments which genuinely want peace, not world war, to join them.
What is needed are not empty pleas for “restraint” but action which will enable Iran to effectively counter the insane war-mongering of Donald Trump and the fascist state of Israel, and at the same time bring an end to Israel’s ongoing destruction of Palestine.
