"It is God's will that a basis has been provided to us, the people of Iran, to make best use of this vacuum to liberate ourselves."

Statement of the Communist Party of Iran on the war against the people of Iran and Israel

No war, no hope in the world powers

The path of liberation lies in protest, consciousness and mass action

First, on the morning of Thursday, June 23, 1404, Israel attacked Iran. The attack targeted nuclear facilities, Revolutionary Guards bases, air defense bases, air force bases and weapons production centers of the Islamic regime. These attacks are still going on. Meanwhile, a number of criminal Revolutionary Guards officials were killed. Less than 12 hours after the Israeli attacks, the Islamic regime launched about 150 long-range missiles. Initial reports said some of the missiles landed in residential areas of Tel Aviv, causing casualties.

Second, this operation, which began with the Israeli attack on Iran, is a military confrontation between two religious fascist states, Iran and Israel. This confrontation is against the people on both sides. The Islamic regime is a corrupt, anti-worker, anti-women and violator of the most basic freedoms and human rights. With a strange nuclear game and the slogan of "destroy Israel," the regime gave the Israeli state the opportunity to attack Iran so relentlessly. The other side of this conflict is the criminal Israeli regime, which has displaced millions of Palestinians by force and killing and turned the Gaza Strip and the West Bank into hell for its inhabitants. The regime, whose prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has been sentenced by the International Criminal Court in The Hague on charges of crimes against humanity, is criminal, warmongering and murderous.

Third, the continuation of this devastating war, in addition to the victims of innocent people and the destruction of Iran's economic infrastructure, will pave the way for a change of power over the people and the formation of the desired alternative to the US state. The war gives the Islamic regime the opportunity to continue to suppress the struggles and protests of women, workers, oppressed nations, freedom fighters and rights fighters with increasing violence. The continuation of this war by the criminal state of Israel is neither libertarian, nor contrary to the propaganda of some semi-fascist opposition movements, nor in the interest of the liberation of the Iranian people, nor for human rights and democracy. The essence of these confrontations is the struggle of two opposing blocs for regional hegemony, for which both sides are ready to commit genocide and crimes against humanity. The continued war causes great harm to workers, toilers, women, the elderly, marginalized people, children, farmers and a majority suffering from hunger, poverty, lack of water and electricity. It will destroy infrastructure and make the current environmental disaster even more catastrophic.

Fourth, however, this game is not without the role of a third player. The role of the US state in this equation is the same as it has always been in the Middle East: maintaining an unstable balance between conservative forces to prevent the strengthening of popular forces. By supporting Israel and giving the political green light to attack Iran, the United States has remained silent or turned a blind eye to the Islamic regime's domestic repressive projects, according to its own interests. In fact, the US state and the Islamic regime, despite their apparent differences, have one thing in common: maintaining existing economic structures, political control from above, and suppressing any popular alternative.

Fifth, the continued war between the occupying and criminal Israeli regime and the anti-human Islamic regime will marginalize social movements and will be very difficult for the Iranian people"
