a digest of middle eastern workers’ movement news

workers in struggle is a new publication which brings together trade unionists, socialists and other activists in solidarity with the workers movement in the Middle East.

Articles in this issue include:

strike wave rocks egypt
On Sunday 16th February, more than 10,000 workers
from the Spinning and Weaving Company textile mill in
the Nile Delta city of Mahalla el-Kubra staged a mass
demonstration against low wages, price rises and Hosni
Mubarak’s authoritarian regime.

iran’s trade unionists call out from the prison cells
Iranian trade unionists Mansour Osanloo and
Mahmoud Salehi are experiencing terrible conditions
in prison, with the regime showing the utmost
contempt for their welfare. The pair, alongside almost
a hundred of student activists, have been locked up
by an unpopular regime cracking down on a rising tide
of popular discontent.


US dockers plan strike to end occupation of Iraq
As workers in struggle went to press we heard news of
the plans of American dockers to stage a strike on May
1st against the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan.
The International Longshore and Warehouse Union
conference in San Francisco has passed a motion
“calling on unions and working people in the US and
internationally to mobilize for a "No Peace No Work
Holiday" on May 1, 2008 for 8 hours to demand an
immediate end to the war and occupation in Iraq and
Afghanistan and the withdrawal of US troops from the
Middle East”.


stop the israeli assault on gaza!
The last few days have seen a massive increase in
Israeli attacks on Gaza, the “collective punishment”
of the population resulting in the deaths of 110
Palestinians in one four-day period, along with over
350 injuries. Over one third of the casualties were
children.
