The main problem isn't that Western states are attacking countries in the Middle East and killing civilians (or that states like Canada and Ukraine made statements supporting those attacks), it's that sub-state leftists have bad ideas.
The moment Israel began bombing Iran, US left-wing organizations “wheeled out one regime apologist after another.” In “The Anti-Imperialist Imperialism Club,” Arya Zahedi argues that this “form of anti-imperialism is an incredible obstacle to building a renewed internationalism.”

Abeng, a short-lived newspaper, offers a window into Jamaica's revolutionary currents in the late 60s. Acting as a theoretical nexus between communism and black power, it also served as a means of practical communication between different currents of class struggle on the island

Why is Israel invading Gaza again?
To commit as much genocide as they can get away with.
What about Hamas?
Just as US politicians say "crime" whenever they call for more state repression, today "Hamas" is simply the noise Israeli politicians make to mean "We're going to murder more Palestinians."

Joshua Clover's recent passing is a tremendous loss for the communist cause. Not only was he a close friend and mentor to many in our collective, but he was also exemplary in his clarity, breadth, and dedication. We aspire to be like Joshua as we navigate this world on fire.

While "The Commune Form" demonstrates "commitment to participating in and interpreting cycles of struggle in the unfolding ecological crisis," it mistakes the form of occupations for their function, occluding their inability to undertake communist measures. Reviewer F.P. writes:
