*US/Israel versus Iran: We Are Not Against War in Itself!*

*/Populism and Stalinism in face of the Iran War – a critique of pacifism which can not differentiate between wars of aggression and war of defence/*

/By Michael Pröbsting (RCIT), 16 March 2026/

The Iran War is a historic war. It will shape the future of Iran, the Middle East, of the relationships between the Great Powers, between the NATO states as well as the future of the Trump presidency. It is a war which the RCIT and all authentic socialists consider as a reactionary war of aggression by U.S. and Israeli imperialism but as a just war of national defence of Iran. Hence, we unequivocally stand for the defeat of the American-Zionist monster and for the military victory of Iran without lending political support for the reactionary Mullah regime.

Unfortunately, many self-proclaimed socialists fail the test of this historic war. This is also true for the camp of Stalinism and populism. The Communist Party of the Russian Federation of Gennady Zyuganov is a particularly obscene example. In a statement titled “/Let us stand together against aggression and war!/” it denounces the US/Israeli attack and commits itself to “/strongly uphold the right to independent development of Russia, China, the DPRK and all countries of the world./” While the KPRF claims to oppose “/aggression and war/”, it has supported Putin’s invasion of Ukraine since the very first day and advocates the “patriotic” struggle for the “/Russian World/” and “/Slavic brotherhood/”! In fact, these cynical “communists” are arch-defenders of Russian imperialism with close relations to the Kremlin.
