Although modern structures of extraction attempt to mask old systems of colonial plunder, the living legacy of anti-colonial resistance across Africa remains a decisive force in the struggle for sovereignty and genuine freedom.

The Western media continues to portray US-Iranian talks as a means for US President Donald Trump to end the war many portray as a “failure” even as the US continues striking Iran amid a “ceasefire.”
The worst part about Western reports regarding supposed US “diplomacy” is that the last 26 years alone of US aggression against Iran prove the US uses diplomacy only to further war on its own terms, not to avoid or end it.
The US is currently managing similar balancing acts of hostility just below the threshold of all out direct war with both Russia and China.

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi affirmed that Iran will not allow the Strait of Hormuz to go back to normal until “Lebanon is quiet.”
Professor Marandi highlighted that Iran had to make sure there are no “loopholes” in the agreements and no elements that the US can use to “cheat Iran,” stressing that the agreement has been carefully constructed, “including the parts that deal with Lebanon.”
“When the text comes out, people will see that those have been carefully crafted so that there would be no excuse for the Zionist regime and for the United States to continue the slaughter of women and children,” he said.

Contemporary fascism has evolved into a globalized system of authoritarian domination led by the US and its allies, combining military aggression, economic coercion, media manipulation, and institutional capture against resistance movements and sovereign states across the Global South.

On May 13th, French outlet RTL published an explosive report, entirely unremarked upon by English language media. It exposed how Ukrainian military and intelligence units are covertly operating in Mali on France’s behalf, in coordination with both ethnic Tuareg rebels and Al Qaeda-linked forces determined to crush the country’s revolutionary government. Furthermore, Kiev is keen to expand and escalate its African operations yet further, and destabilise neighbouring countries. Ukrainian militancy, long-encouraged by the CIA and MI6, has now decisively developed into an international threat.

The idea of the Left in the Global South cannot be reduced to the electoral fortunes of communist parties, nor merely to the survival of socialist slogans in postcolonial states. The Left in the Global South is a historical force shaped by anti-colonial struggle, the unfinished project of national liberation, and the contemporary confrontation with global capitalism. To understand it requires that we move beyond the categories developed in Europe and North America and instead examine the actual terrain of political life in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the islands of the world system.
