The three parties describe the war as having been \u201claunched by the criminal Netanyahu government and United States imperialism,\u201d accusing both of dragging \u201cthe region and its peoples towards more disasters and civilian casualties\u2014all in the service of imperialist interests, against the interests of peoples, their independence, and their right to self-determination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The statement also directly confronts the Trump administration\u2019s stated justification for the assault. The parties characterize the administration\u2019s declared intention to impose \u201cregime change\u201d in Iran as \u201ca gross trampling on the sovereignty and dignity of peoples and a dismantling of international law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It links the current war to other recent actions by the U.S. \u201cin Latin America,\u201d a reference to the kidnapping of the Venezuelan president and the oil blockade against Cuba.<\/p>\n<p>While condemning U.S.-Israeli war aims and extending solidarity to the people of Iran, the statement is explicit in discouraging illusions concerning the nature of the theocratic Islamic Republic government. Opposing imperialism\u2019s designs in the region, the three organizations argue, does not equate to support for the clerical state.<\/p>\n<p>The parties write that U.S.-Israeli military aggression \u201cnot only does not herald Iran\u2019s liberation from the yoke of tyranny and the current dictatorship, but is also an attempt to destroy Iran as a capable regional state, and to replace the current government with a subordinate and authoritarian regime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The three parties place the Iran conflict within a longer history of U.S. and Israeli interventions in the region. Citing \u201cthe experiences of the peoples in Palestine, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Sudan, Lebanon,\u201d the statement argues that \u201ctrue liberation and salvation from reactionary and authoritarian regimes can only come with the action of the people and patriotic leadership\u2014not from Washington or Tel Aviv.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the Tudeh Party, issuing such a statement carries special weight. Operating largely in exile, Tudeh has long opposed both imperialist interference in Iran and the authoritarian theocracy that rules over its country. The party has faced severe repression, with much of its leadership forced to flee or executed following the 1979 revolution and subsequent crackdowns by the Islamic Republic.<\/p>\n<p>The Communist Party of Israel, an Arab-majority party that has long championed Palestinian rights and opposed militarism from within Israeli society, is also under intense pressure. Particularly since the launch of the genocidal war in Gaza, its members and lawmakers have faced persecution for opposing the Netanyahu government.<\/p>\n<p>For the CPUSA, the statement continues a tradition of opposing U.S. militarism abroad while connecting anti-war politics to the struggles of working people at home. As the Trump administration continues to advance what the party sees as a fascist agenda domestically, it has worked to link up the fight for peace with the battle to protect democracy.<\/p>\n<p>The statement closes with a call for \u201call forces seeking true liberation from the regimes of exploitation and oppression in each of our countries, as well as the peace-loving and progress-loving forces in the world, to unite their efforts with all their force in these critical and decisive moments in order to struggle against the governments of war and aggression.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Together, the three parties have offered the global peace and labor movements proof that even across battle lines, the working class has more in common than it does in conflict.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cpusa.org\/article\/joint-statement-of-the-communist-parties-of-iran-tudeh-israel-cpi-and-the-u-s-cpusa\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The full joint statement is available at cpusa.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>We hope you appreciated this article.
