Danish Trade Unions, Women’s Organizations, and Civil Rights Institutions Stand with the People of Iran Against Killing and Repression!

-

On the occasion of the 40th day marking the deaths of thousands of dear lives lost in January 2026 at the hands of the Islamic Republic, Danish trade unions and the Danish women’s community, while condemning the killing of the Iranian people by the regime and expressing solidarity with the people of Iran, have declared their sympathy and solidarity with the families of those killed and arrested and have called for the immediate release of all detainees.

It should be noted that Amnesty International Denmark, women’s organizations, trade unions, and left-wing parties are organizing broad campaigns in various forms in support of the people of Iran. Among them, nine organizations—including Amnesty International, a trade union, a women’s organization, and socialist parties—organized a demonstration on January 25 in cooperation with the Women–Life–Freedom Committee in Denmark.

So far, four trade unions and the Danish Women’s Society have issued statements to commemorate the 40th day of the fallen, and other unions and institutions will be added to this list in the coming days.

Post-bloody ThuFriday: Obstacles and solutions

-
Abbas Goya - February 2, 2026 Undoubtedly, every protester who took part in the January uprising and lived through Bloody ThuFriday (Thursday–Friday, January 8-9) is grappling with the same question: What are the obstacles, and what are the solutions ? There is no doubt that the brutal massacre (of tens) of thousands of protesters marked a turning point in the struggle of the working masses to overthrow the Islamic Republic. Yet despite deploying an unprecedented level of violence, the regime failed to achieve its central objective: it was unable to re-establish a level of terror comparable to that of the 1980s. The first clear sign of this failure was the reopening of the Internet in Iran. A torrent of testimonies, images, and revelations flooded the world. People spoke out without fear, and funerals became mass political gatherings. The genocidal violence of Bloody ThuFriday did not paralyze the masses in the way repression did in the 1980s. Instead, it produced defiant spirit remini...

The latest Defeated

 Abbas Goya Note: What follows is an excerpt from a discussion among socialist activists regarding the January uprising. If we analyze the wage earners who rose up in the January uprising solely through a narrow, interest-based lens within the workers' socialist framework, their presumed long-term objective would be the establishment of a socialist state through the political expropriation of capitalism. Yet when we examine the actual composition of the population, the slogans raised, and the immediate unfolding of events, this claim appears excessively imaginative and far removed from reality. And indeed, it is. What bridges the gap between imagination and reality is not spontaneity but the subjective political factor: political activists, both as individuals and as organized forces. Politics is their terrain — and it is not the exclusive domain of socialists. It is no secret that Western ruling classes, through coercion, and manipulation, attempt to install their preferred altern...

Blackshirts monarchists & their raison d'être

Abbas Goya Mussolini, who had previously been a journalist, founded the first fascist government in 1922. His electoral campaign was based on organizing the “Blackshirts” to repress, arrest, and massacre Italy’s communists. Hostility toward communism, in the aftermath of the 1917 Russian Revolution, was the primary reason for the very existence of fascism. Reza Pahlavi and conscious monarchists know very well that in order to gain acceptance by the U.S. rulers—especially under its current president, Trump—they must demonstrate that they possess the necessary and sufficient capacity for hostility toward leftists, socialists, and communists. From the perspective of the US, the main reason for the transfer of power from the Shah to Khomeini was the Islamists’ high capacity to suppress and eradicate communists. Khomeini made this commitment to Carter and carried it out. For this reason, Reza Pahlavi and Pahlavi loyalists are compelled to show that they are no less than Khomeini and the Isl...
