The Dissolution of the Alliance in the United States
The US administration under Obama intended to launch an attack on Syria in 2013, leading to a split within the ruling class. Obama's decision to step back was not due to altruism but a result of hesitance towards starting another regional conflict. The dissolving alliance resulted from mass pressure, with labor movement beginning to align with the Palestine support movement. These grassroots movements are now factored into imperial foreign policy considerations, showcasing a shift in consciousness within the labor movement. Notably, the involvement of union leaders like Brandon Manciya and Sean Fane outside the White House signifies the growing impact of labor in the Palestine support movement.
