From the Somme to Syria via Stalingrad

“The Only War Worth Fighting is the Class War” (internationalist graffiti from the cells of Richmond Castle 1916). It is 100 years after the First World imperialist slaughter began. We not only oppose the justifications and lies about that war but commemorate how the working class, especially across Europe, brought that war to an end 1917-18 in a revolutionary wave which lasted for years. Capitalism survived. It has gone on to repeat its murderous wars ever since. There are no “just causes” in the era of imperialism. All wars are war against workers. As the populations of Syria, Iraq, Ukraine and Gaza (to name only the most notorious) suffer yet further atrocities we need to have a perspective on how to end this infernal cycle."
