We list below a series of items which expose the role of imperialism in the genocide of the Palestinian masses in Gaza, part of the resistance to it on a global scale and we expose the complicity of the South African government in the genocide (and the role of companies like Anglo American in the ongoing terrorizing of the Palestinians). Except where specifically stated, the articles are not directly by the WIVL, and are given for information and exposure.
