The International Workers Day has its roots in the general strike for an 8-hour working day that led to the Haymarket massacre in Chicago in 1886.
Fighting against colonial powers and their expansion inthe global south is intertwined with resisting the exploitation of the working class by capital. Israel, as a western settler colonial project, is the ultimate product of capitalism. It is ethnically cleansing the Palestinian people to exploit their land, bodies, natural gas, water, trees, crops and all their resources. All to the benefit of the bourgeois capitalist corporations making profits of it. The force exploiting the workers is the same force oppressing the global south and is the same force depriving Palestinians of their humanity on daily basis.
