Devrimci İşçi Partisi olarak, devrimci bir yükselişe doğru ilerleyen bu halk isyanının üçüncü ayını doldurması vesilesiyle İran halkını onurlu ve kahramanca mücadelesi dolayısıyla kutluyoruz. Büyük devrimci atılımı ile dayanışmamızı ilan ediyoruz. Bu hafta sonu Gerçek sitesi ve daha genel olarak medyamız İran’ın devrimci isyanını merkezine alan bir dosya yayınlayacak. İran halkının ve kadınının isyankâr ruhunu taşıyan yeni devrimci müziğin, Türkiye’nin başına çökmüş olan istibdadın her duyduğunda titrediği insanlığın o büyük sanatının örneklerini paylaşacağız.
Dosyamızı anlamlı bir adımla, İranlı bir kadın yoldaşımızın, Behnaz Tebrizi’nin yazısıyla açmıştık. Bugün Devrimci İşçi Partisi’nin bildirisi ile devam ediyoruz.
DIP, the Revolutionary Workers Party of Turkey, celebrates the heroism and dignity of the Iranian people on the occasion of the completion of three months of a people’s rebellion. It declares its solidarity with this great revolutionary striving. The DIP has prepared a special dossier that covers different aspects of the revolutionary rebellion of Iran.
We kicked off the dossier significantly with an article by our Iranian comrade Behnaz Tebrizi, who as a woman has had her share of the repression of the rights of women in the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Today we are publishing the Statement of the DIP on the situation in Iran.
Today, 17 December 2022, the people’s rebellion in Iran tending towards a revolutionary crisis has completed its third month. Jîna Mahsa Amini, a 22-year old Kurdish woman, was taken under custody by the “Guidance Police”, sometimes referred to as the “morality police”, for wearing her hijab “improperly” on 13 September 2022 and died on 16 September while still under custody.
Bugün 17 Aralık 2022, İran’da bir devrimci kriz yaratan halk isyanının üçüncü ayı dolmuş bulunuyor. 22 yaşında bir Kürt genç kadın olan Jîna Mehsa Emini 13 Eylül günü, Türkçede yaygın olarak kullanılan adıyla “Ahlâk Polisi”, İran’daki özgün adıyla İrşad Polisi tarafından 13 Eylül’de gözaltına alınmış, 16 Eylül’de ise hâlâ gözaltında iken hayatını yitirmişti.
On yıllardır meydanlarda mücadele verenlerden çeşit çeşit özgürlük talebi çıkmaktadır: ifade özgürlüğü, siyaset yapma ve örgütlenme özgürlüğü, insanca bir yaşam için yeterli ücret ve sosyal devlet desteği, tesettür ve zorunlu örtünme uygulamalarının kaldırılması, nitelikli ve ücretsiz eğitime erişim, sosyal sigorta ve nitelikli ücretsiz sağlık hizmetlerine erişim ve daha düzinelerce başka insanî talep.
Supporting the oppressed people and condemning the killing of people in the cities of Kurdistan!
Noble and freedom-loving people
More than seventy days have passed since the new round of nationwide uprisings in most cities of Iran.
The widespread presence of men and women on the streets shows that the oppressed and deprived people in Iran have decided to stand up to get their demands.
US midterm elections took place on Tuesday November 8th, 2022. Midterm elections determine one third of the Senate composition and the entirety of the House of Representatives, as well as state governors. The result of this year’s election frustrated the wishes and predictions of both great parties. Votes are still being counted, but it looks like the Senate will remain in Democratic control with a slim majority, and the House of Representatives will go over to the Republicans, also by a slight margin. However, the Republicans are disgruntled, since they had imagined that inflation coupled with Biden’s inconsistent policies would fetch them an overwhelming victory. Especially the former fascist president Donald Trump looks pretty upset over the fact that his candidates lost in important states like Pennsylvania.
"The unceasing activity of the Iranian people, headed by women, especially the young generation and high school students, has completed its second month after the murder of the 22-year old Mahsa Amini at the hands of the so-called morality police. This extraordinary mass movement is now bearing its fruits in the form of the organising of the masses. We are here presenting two documents, one from the school system, where teachers and students are among the most active actors of the uprising, the other one from among the mothers of the youth for our readers to get a taste of the orientation of the movement."

Here we share the reports of Iranian petrochemical workers, detailing their experiences during the latest strikes. These reports were originally written in Persian by the workers themselves and were later translated by us.
Καθώς ο πόλεμος δια πληρεξουσίου που προκάλεσε το ΝΑΤΟ στην Ουκρανία εισέρχεται στον όγδοο μήνα μαζικής καταστροφής, μια νέα, απειλητικότερη κλιμάκωση της πολεμικής σύγκρουσης με τη Ρωσία βρίσκεται σε εξέλιξη.
Avrupa siyasetinde bir eşik aşıldı. Gerçek gazetesi, yıllardır Avrupa başta olmak üzere tüm dünya siyasetinde faşizmin ve ön-faşizmin hızlı yükselişine dikkat çekiyordu. Önce, İsveç’te faşist İsveçli Demokratlar partisi seçimlerden galip çıktı. Şimdi ise, Avrupa Birliği’nin en büyük üçüncü ekonomisi olan İtalya’da faşizm ezici bir zafer kazandı. Tehlikeyi küçümseyip, halkı kandıranlar utansın. Bu ülkelerde henüz faşizm kurulmamıştır ama artık faşistler iktidardadır.
Avropa siyasəti yenə öz əndazəsindən çıxdı. Nəşrlərimiz neçə zamandır Avropa başda olmaqla bütün dünya siyasətində faşizmin və protofaşizmin intensiv yüksəlişinə diqqəti cəlb edirdi. Əvvəla, İsveçdə faşist İsveçli Demokratlar Partiyası seçkilərdən əsil qalib kimi çıxmışdı. İndi isə Avropa İttifaqının ən böyük üçüncü iqtisadiyyatı olan İtaliyada faşizm müstəsna bir qələbə qazandı. Təhlükəyə biganə yanaşıb xalqı aldadanlar utansın. Bu ölkələrdə hələ faşizm bərqərar olunmayıb, amma artıq faşistlər hakimiyyətə gəliblər.
Un nouveau seuil a été franchi dans la politique européenne. Nos publications ont mis en évidence la montée rapide du fascisme et du proto-fascisme dans le monde entier. Tout d'abord, les ‘‘démocrates suédois’’ (parti fasciste) se sont avérés être les véritables vainqueurs des élections en Suède. Et maintenant, le fascisme a remporté les élections à une écrasante majorité dans la troisième plus grande économie de l'UE, l'Italie. Malheur à ceux qui ont sous-estimé cette menace et trompé les gens. Le fascisme n'est pas encore établi dans ces pays, mais les fascistes sont au pouvoir.
A new threshold has been crossed in European politics. Our publications have been pointing out the rapid rise of fascism and proto-fascism all over the world. First the fascist Swedish Democrats turned out to be the real winners of elections in Sweden. And now fascism won the elections overwhelmingly in the third largest economy of the EU, Italy. Woe to those who underestimated this threat and deceived the people. Fascism has not yet been established in these countries, but the fascists are in power.
Le 6 septembre 2022, une contre-offensive ukrainienne a débuté dans la région de Kharkov, entraînant avec succès une retraite majeure des forces russes et l'occupation de villes d'importance stratégique telles qu'Izyum sur le fleuve Donets. La réponse des dirigeants russes a été de déclarer le 21 septembre une "mobilisation partielle" de 300 000 nouveaux soldats et de convoquer un référendum du 23 au 27 septembre dans les républiques populaires de Donetsk et de Lougansk ainsi qu'à Kherson et Zaporijya pour leur intégration dans la Fédération de Russie. Comme prévu, les résultats du référendum ont été très largement favorables à l'adhésion à la Fédération de Russie, qui a été célébrée solennellement à Moscou le 30 septembre et ratifiée par les chambres basse et haute du Parlement russe les 3 et 4 octobre.
El 6 de septiembre de 2022, comenzó una contraofensiva ucraniana en la región de Kharkov que condujo con éxito a una importante retirada de las fuerzas rusas y a la ocupación de ciudades de importancia estratégica como Izyum en el río Donets. La respuesta de los líderes rusos fue declarar el 21 de septiembre una “movilización parcial” de 300.000 nuevas tropas militares, y convocar un referéndum del 23 al 27 de septiembre en las Repúblicas Populares de Donetsk y Lugansk, así como en Kherson y Zaporizhzhya para su integración en La Federación Rusa. Los resultados del referéndum, como era de esperar, fueron abrumadoramente favorables a la adhesión a la Federación Rusa, y esto se celebró solemnemente en Moscú el 30 de septiembre y fue ratificado por las cámaras alta y baja del Parlamento ruso los días 3 y 4 de octubre.
On September 6, 2022, a Ukrainian counter-offensive started in the Kharkov region having successfully led to a major retreat of the Russian forces and occupying cities of strategic importance such as Izyum on the Donets river. The Russian leadership’s response was to declare on September 21 a “partial mobilization” of 300.000 new military troops, and to call a referendum on September 23-27 in the People’s Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk as well as in Kherson and Zaporizhzhya for their integration in the Russian Federation. The results of the referendum, as was expected, were overwhelmingly in favor of joining the Russian Federation, and this was solemnly celebrated in Moscow on September 30, and ratified by the lower and upper chambers of the Russian Parliament on October 3rd and 4th.

The "Hijab" or headscarf is often the first thing that comes to mind about Iran. The widespread fear of "Will Turkey become like Iran" mostly points to the mandatory headscarf practice in Iran. Those who proclaim "everything was better under Shah" immediately follow this up with "women could walk on the streets with mini-skirts and no headscarves". Just like this, the Iranian opposition itself points to the dress codes of women as the primary arena of freedom. But what are the practices of the Islamic Republic regarding the "hijab" and the real demands of the Iranian people? Here we will provide a short history.
‘Hicap’ ya da başörtüsü, İran ile ilgili birçok kişinin aklına gelen ilk kavramdır. Özellikle AKP döneminde ‘Türkiye İran olacak mı’ endişesinin büyük kısmı kadınların başörtü zorunluluğunu ima eder. ‘İran şah dönemi daha iyiydi’ diyenler hemen arkasından ‘kadınlar mini etekle başörtüsüz gezebiliyorlardı’ der Türkiye’de, hatta İran’ın kendi muhalefeti de ‘özgürlük’ diye kadınların kılık kıyafetini ilk hedef olarak gösterir. Ama ‘hijap’ meselesinin kısa tarihi, İslam cumhuriyetinin bu konudaki yıllara yayılmış tutumu ve İran halkının bu konudaki tepkileri gerçekte nedir?
Azərbaycan Respublikasının Milli Məclisində 28 sentyabrda siyasi partiyalar haqqında yeni qanun layihəsi ilə bağlı ictimai müzakirələr aparılacaq. Ukraynada davam edən NATO-Rusiya müharibəsindən sonra keçmiş Sovet məkanında (Tacikistan və Qırğızıstan arasındakı münaqişələrdən əlavə) digər bir müharibə dinamikası da Azərbaycan və Ermənistan arasında alovlanmışdı.
Azerbaycan Meclisi, 28 Eylül’de yeni siyasi partiler yasasını tartışmak üzere toplanacak. Ukrayna’da devam eden NATO-Rusya savaşından sonra, eski Sovyet coğrafyasında bir diğer savaş dinamiği de (Tacikistan ile Kırgızistan arasındaki çatışmalara ek olarak) Azerbaycan ile Ermenistan arasında baş göstermişti. Savaş bu yazının doğrudan konusu değil, ama Azerbaycan devleti ve İlham Aliyev iç siyasette Ukrayna Cumhurbaşkanı Volodimir Zelenskiy’den belli ki ilham alıyor!

"Pour en venir à l'Italie, le pays est en proie à une dépression économique au niveau national depuis le début du nouveau siècle, c'est-à-dire avant même que la dépression mondiale ne commence en 2008. Son PIB est aujourd'hui inférieur à ce qu'il était au début du millénaire ! C'est le pays qui a la dette la plus élevée d'Europe (2,6 trillions de dollars, soit 150 % de son PIB). Diverses formules de coalition ont été essayées entre les différents partis depuis les élections de 2018, mais toutes se sont effondrées au bout d'un moment. (...) C'est pour cette raison qu'un gouvernement "technocratique" sous la direction de Mario Draghi, jusqu'à récemment le gouverneur de la Banque centrale européenne, a été formé, les partis donnant également des ministres au gouvernement.
A certain event that happened during the 1917 October revolution has always been a bit of a mystery for historians. After the Bolsheviks brought down the provisional government and handed power over to the highest organ of the Soviets, the revolutionary soldiers descended into the wine cellars of the Winter Palace, went to the wine collection of the Tsar, each bottle of which was a fortune, and got drunk for days. We need to point out the contradiction here. Russian workers and peasants do not drink wine, their national beverage is vodka. Wine was the beverage of choice for snobbish royals and their imitators such as the up-and-coming bourgeoisie, politicians whose whole career was to protect their interests and as such lived in their close proximity, and army generals. Despite all these, the peasants and workers who had likely never drunk wine, and certainly not French wine, before drank bottles upon bottles of them.
“Coming to Italy, the country is in the grip of an economic depression at the national level since the beginning of the new century, i.e. even from before the worldwide depression started in 2008. Its GDP is lower today than it was as at the beginning of the millennium! It is the country with the highest debt stock in Europe (2.6 trillion dollars or 150 per cent of its GDP).
С начала «Специальной военной операции» России на Украине прошло более 5 месяцев, и многое стало очевидным. В частности, становится понятным, что вопреки некоторым первоначальным прогнозам война будет долгой. Однако многое так и остается скрытым, непонятным и, как выражаются политкорректно в российских радио и телеэфирах приглашенные эксперты и сами ведущие, вызывает вопросы. Так, никто не берется предсказать, когда и чем закончится война на Украине. Единственное, что ясно всем, так это то, что война не закончится до тех пор, пока одна из сторон не потерпит в ней поражения. В российских СМИ ежедневно повторяется как заклинание, что спецоперация может и должна закончиться только победой. Об обязательности поражения России как стратегической задаче и цели открыто говорят медийные западные политики. Верховный представитель ЕС по иностранным делам и политике безопасности Жозеп Борель заявил о том, что ситуация на Украине должна быть решена на поле боя, а не дипломатическим путем (1).
More than five months have passed since the beginning of Russia's "Special Military Operation" in Ukraine, and much has become obvious. In particular, it becomes clear that, contrary to some initial forecasts, the war will be long. However, much remains hidden, incomprehensible and, as the invited experts and the presenters themselves express themselves politically correctly in Russian radio and television broadcasts raises questions
Plusieurs syndicalistes ont été arrêtés et envoyés en prison à Piacenza, en Italie, pour une simple activité syndicale ! Le procureur régional considère que leur lutte réussie pour arracher aux patrons de l'industrie de la logistique des augmentations de salaire supplémentaires après la fin du processus officiel de négociation collective est une ‘‘extorsion’’, criminalisant ainsi la lutte des classes. L'EEK de Grèce et le DIP de Turquie ont envoyé un message de solidarité aux syndicalistes persécutés. Nous publions ci-dessous ce message.
İtalya’nın Piacenza kentinde bir grup sendikacı, yalnızca sendikacılık yaptıkları için tutuklanıp hapse atıldı! Bölge savcısı, taşımacılık sektörü işçilerinin toplu sözleşme pazarlıkları tamamlandıktan sonraki aşamada patronlarından daha yüksek bir zammı söküp alabilmek için yürüttükleri başarılı mücadeleyi “gasp” diye adlandırarak sınıf mücadelesini suç saydı. Yunanistan’dan EEK (İşçilerin Devrimci Partisi) ve Türkiye’den Devrimci İşçi Partisi (DİP), suçlanmakta olan sendikacılara bir dayanışma mesajı yolladı. Aşağıda bu mesajı yayınlıyoruz.
Σημαντικοί μαχητικοί συνδικαλιστές συνελήφθησαν και οδηγήθηκαν στην φυλακή στην Πιασέντζα της Ιταλίας, μόνο και μόνο για την συνδικαλιστική τους δράση! Η περιφερειακή εισαγγελέας ανακήρυξε σε… εκβιασμό την νικηφόρα τους πάλη με την οποία απέσπασαν αυξήσεις στους μισθούς από τα αφεντικά της βιομηχανίας logistics, μετά το πέρας της επίσημης διαδικασίας συλλογικών διαπραγματεύσεων, ποινικοποιώντας έτσι την ταξική πάλη. Το ΕΕΚ της Ελλάδας και το DIP της Τουρκίας έστειλαν ένα μήνυμα αλληλεγγύης στους διωκόμενους συνδικαλιστές. Δημοσιεύουμε παρακάτω αυτό το μήνυμα.
Several unionists were arrested and sent to prison in Piacenza, Italy, for nothing more than trade union activity! The regional public prosecutor considers their successful struggle to wrest from the bosses of the logistics industry additional wage raises after the official collective bargaining process was terminated as “extortion”, thus criminalizing class struggle. The EEK of Greece and the DIP of Turkey sent a message of solidarity to the persecuted unionists. We publish below that message.
İmperialist müharibəsində ABŞ və NATO-nu məğlub etmək kapitalist və imperialist əsarətindən xilas olmaq uğrunda döyüşən bütün qüvvələrin, ən əvvəl beynəlxalq fəhlə sinfi və onun inqilabçı qabaqcıl dəstəsinin başlıca, zəruri və təxirəsalınmaz vəzifəsidir.
La défaite de la guerre impérialiste des USA et l'OTAN est la tâche principale de toutes les forces qui luttent pour l'émancipation de l'esclavage capitaliste et de la servitude impérialiste, en premier lieu la classe ouvrière internationale et son avant-garde révolutionnaire.

La devastadora guerra en Ucrania lleva más de cuatro meses sin señales visibles de terminar. Millones de personas inocentes en Ucrania y en todo el mundo están pagando un alto precio. El final de la tragedia se ve obstaculizado por los principales instigadores de la guerra, el imperialismo estadounidense y la OTAN.
Los llamados a una tregua y los intentos de negociaciones diplomáticas están siendo saboteados por los principales culpables. El secretario general de la OTAN, Jens Stoltenberg, llamó a Occidente a no sucumbir a la " fatiga de Ucrania " y habló de " una guerra que durará años ". El primer ministro británico, Boris Johnson, en su visita a Kiev la misma semana, hizo una declaración similar sobre una " guerra a largo plazo ". El objetivo declarado de EE. UU., Gran Bretaña y la OTAN es prolongar la guerra "hasta que se debilite el poder militar ruso ", como dijo el secretario de Defensa de los EE. UU., Lloyd Austin, durante su visita a Kiev el 25 de abril de 2022, y hasta que se logre un “cambio de régimen” en Moscú, como afirmó el presidente de los EE. UU., Joe Biden, durante su infame discurso público en Polonia, cuando dijo " Por Dios, este hombre no puede...
Hristo Rakovski Uluslararası Sosyalist Merkezi’nin ve RedMed.org internet ağının çağrıcısı olduğu ve 25-26 Haziran 2022 tarihinde gerçekleşen Ukrayna’da NATO’nun vekâlet savaşına karşı Acil Uluslararası Savaş Karşıtı Konferans şüphesiz ki mühim bir siyasi etkinlikti.
The Emergency Anti-War International Conference against the NATO proxy war in Ukraine called by the International Socialist Center “Christian Rakovsky” and RedMed.org web network on June 25-26, 2022 was undoubtedly an important international political event.
The decision for the Conference was taken in the Preparatory Meeting of the Rakovsky Center on May 22, 2022, and consequently, the Invitation issued by the Rakovsky Center on June the 1st addressed a large spectrum of the revolutionary left and communist Parties, organizations, movements, Marxist theoretical journals and independent militants from different traditions from all over the world found an impressive response. It is reflected in the large number of dozens of participants from all the Continents (Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia) and from 26 countries that joined the Conference in two days of intensive work.
