In a recent speech, President Biden addressed the world, stating that the globe is at an inflection point. However, instead of bringing hope, his words have raised concerns about the escalating global conflict and the United States' role in it. The speech outlined America's extensive involvement in wars over the past three decades, which have affected countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Pakistan, North Africa, Bosnia, Kosovo, Serbia, and Sudan - encompassing a significant portion of the world's population.

But what makes this situation different is the transformation of these wars into a more general conflict, akin to a world war, echoing the views expressed by Leon Trotsky on the eve of World War II. The implications of this new world war can be inferred from the $100 billion bill proposed by Biden, aimed at expanding the conflict with Russia, potentially triggering a war with Iran through the Israel-Palestine conflict, and preparing for an imminent confrontation with China. The Biden administration seems to be shaping a continuous front in a global conflict, with the goal of securing US dominance over the Eurasian landmass.

Critics argue that this approach, resembling megalomaniacal ambitions of conquest, aligns with the interests of Wall Street and the Pentagon. Biden's rhetoric even mirrored the language of Wall Street, calling the massive investment in the Pentagon and the US arms industry a "smart investment" that would allegedly pay dividends for American security for generations. However, the cost of such a path may result in decreased living standards and social benefits for American workers, and the loss of lives for their sons and daughters. While it could prove profitable for defense contractors like Raytheon, Boeing, and Lockheed Martin, the consequences for the general population raise serious concerns.

The media's portrayal of Biden's speech as a political success has added to the growing discontent among those who view the United States' involvement in the Middle East, particularly its support of the Israeli government, as criminal imperialism. Biden's recent visit to Tel Aviv and his embrace of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have stirred controversy, given the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Estimates suggest that the death toll in Gaza could rise to a significant number if a ground invasion takes place, adding to the already alarming number of casualties.

Critics argue that Biden's endorsement of Madeleine Albright's claim that the United States is the "indispensable nation" only highlights the dangers inherent in such a mindset. Albright's infamous statement in 1996, defending the devastating impact of US sanctions on Iraq and the resulting deaths of half a million Iraqi children, serves as a reminder of the high price the United States is willing to pay to achieve its goals.

As protests against Israeli actions in Gaza continue to grow and gain international support, the opposition to Biden's speech is becoming more fervent. The recent bombing of Al-Ahli hospital and a church in Gaza, which resulted in numerous Palestinian casualties, has further fueled global outrage. Despite Biden's claim that the hospital was destroyed by a Palestinian rocket, the opposition to his stance only intensifies.

A global mass movement is already underway, demanding an end to the Israeli blockade, preventing the impending invasion of Gaza, and halting the supply of weapons and ammunition by imperialist powers, particularly the United States, to the Zionist regime. Concurrently, efforts are being made to unite these movements with the international strike movement, bridging the struggle against war with a socialist political program.

As concerns over the escalating global conflict continue to rise, the central focus remains on the need for the working class to intervene as a conscious political force, challenging the war-driven policies of governments worldwide. Only through unified efforts can the path towards peace and a more stable future be achieved.
