Editors’ note: This open letter is being distributed at the People’s Conference for Palestine taking place in Detroit this weekend. A Crucial Crossroads in the Struggle to STOP the U.S.-Israeli Genocide of Palestinians… A Historic Moment in the World  How Do We Go Forward? —A contribution from the Revcom Corps for the Emancipation of Humanity We confront a moment of great historical import and crossroads. Those of us here, at this conference in Detroit, experience the weight of this in different ways. We understand this from diverse perspectives. But we are here because we are profoundly outraged by the genocidal slaughter of the Palestinian people and moved by their courage and resilience in the face of such horror. We all feel a responsibility to act! A genocidal slaughter, backed and armed by the U.S., with the “Genocide Joe” Democrats soaked in the blood and forced starvation of the people of Gaza, while the MAGA fascist Republicans call for even greater brutality and finality.   A genocidal slaughter, unleashed by Israel in the immediate wake of the October 7 attacks by Hamas, but in continuity with and escalating the ongoing Zionist-apartheid oppression of the Palestinian people, expanding occupations and repeated expulsions, the dehumanization and daily degradation.   A genocidal slaughter that threatens to spin even more dangerously out of control. A tense world watches as rival imperialist powers like China and Russia vie with the U.S. for advantage, as do regional powers like Iran.   We have the responsibility to grapple honestly and deeply with the difficult reality we face and the way forward. To that end, we offer the following thoughts to stopping the genocide of Palestinians and towards ending the system of capitalism-imperialism that is driving this horror and inflicting a reign of exploitation, oppression and potentially catastrophic extinction on people worldwide. We can no longer afford to allow these imperialists to continue to dominate the world and determine the destiny of humanity. And it is a scientific fact that humanity does not have to live this way.
