This is destroying Iran not the Iranian government.

From Teheran trades unionists: Public protests and strikes in cities across the country have now entered their eleventh day. Despite an intensified security atmosphere, the heavy presence of police and security forces, and violent crackdowns, the scope of the protests remains broad and diverse. According to reports, at least 174 locations in 60 cities across 25 provinces have witnessed demonstrations during this period, and hundreds of protesters have been arrested. Tragically, at least 35 protesting citizens, including children, have lost their lives. From January 2018 to November 2019 and September 2022, Iran’s oppressed people have repeatedly shown—by taking to the streets—that they will not tolerate the ruling political-economic order and the structures built on exploitation and inequality. These movements have not been about returning to the past. They have formed to build a future free from the domination of capital—one grounded in freedom, equality, social justice, and human dignity. While declaring our solidarity with people’s struggles against poverty, unemployment, discrimination, and repression, we state clearly our opposition to any return to a past defined by inequality, corruption, and injustice. We believe genuine liberation is only possible through the conscious, organized leadership and participation of the working class and the oppressed—not through reproducing old and authoritarian forms of power. In this struggle, workers, teachers, retirees, nurses, students, women, and especially young people—despite widespread repression, arrests, dismissals, and worsening living conditions—remain on the front lines. The Syndicate of Workers of the Tehran and Suburbs Bus Company stresses the necessity of continuing independent, conscious, and organized protests. We have said it many times, and we repeat it again: the road to liberation for workers and working people does not run through manufactured “leaders” imposed from above, reliance on foreign powers, or factions within the ruling establishment. It runs through unity, solidarity, and building independent organizations in workplaces and communities, and at the national level. We must not allow ourselves to once again become victims of power games and the interests of the ruling classes. The syndicate also strongly condemns any propaganda, justification, or support for military intervention by foreign governments, including the United States and Israel. Such interventions not only lead to the destruction of civil society and the killing of people, they also hand the authorities yet another pretext to continue violence and repression. Past experience has shown that Western hegemonic states place no value on the freedom, livelihoods, or rights of the Iranian people. We demand the immediate and unconditional release of all detainees, and we stress the necessity of identifying and prosecuting those who ordered and carried out the killing of people. Long live freedom, equality, and class solidarity. The answer for working people is unity and organization. Syndicate of Workers of the Tehran and Suburbs Bus Company 7 January 2026

Israel's Prime Minister may think no one will notice what he's doing in Gaza while he bombs Iran. People face starvation. 55,000 killed. Aid workers and doctors turned away at the border. Shooting at innocent people desperate for food. The world sees you, Benjamin Netanyahu.

BREAKING: Protesters have surrounded the federal detention center in Los Angeles. California isn’t backing down, this is a full-blown standoff with the feds.
