[Marxism] anti-imperialism and solidarity in Australia
== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. == There's a vibrant debate going on over at Facebook among Australian comrades about what approach to take toward Kobani. It mirrors debates elsewhere over Syria as a whole, with the two positions being solidarity with the Kurds against IS, versus a strictly anti-intervention stance. I am not suggesting we replay that debate (with way over a hundred comments as of now) here, but if the comrades think any new points have been made not raised in earlier parallel debates, or if its reappearance on this front sheds any light on the original question, please share.

== Rule #1: YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. == Surely that's not an alternative: solidarity with the Kurds against IS (and against Turkey, backed by the US) as a matter of self-defense is compatible with a demand for US withdrawal from the region, and the submission of the matter to the UNSC, in accord with the UN Charter. --CGE On Oct 14, 2014, at 8:25 AM, Joseph Catron via Marxism marxism@lists.csbs.utah.edu wrote: On Tue, Oct 14, 2014 at 4:00 PM, Andrew Pollack via Marxism marxism@lists.csbs.utah.edu wrote: There's a vibrant debate going on over at Facebook among Australian comrades about what approach to take toward Kobani.
