FSP condemns US, Israel attacks on Iran as violations of int’l law

March 3, 2026 at 2:45 PM

The Frontline Socialist Party (FSP) has strongly denounced the recent attacks carried out by the United States and Israel against Iran, describing them as violations of international law and conventions.

In a statement, the party said the strikes were launched under the contested claim of nuclear threats, despite ongoing diplomatic engagement and without credible evidence. It noted that this was the second time military aggression had occurred, even as negotiations continued.

The FSP condemned the brutality of the war, pointing to the airstrike on a girls’ school in Minab, Iran, which killed hundreds of young girls. The party said the attacks have included targeted assassinations of political leaders and military officials, alongside massive bombings that have caused severe civilian casualties.

Highlighting the broader geopolitical context, the FSP argued that the collapse of the Soviet‑led camp had ended the US vision of a unipolar world, with a multipolar order now intensifying inter‑imperialist contradictions. It cited tariff policies and trade wars under the Trump administration, as well as acts of aggression in Ukraine, Palestine, Venezuela, and Iran, as evidence of escalating global tensions.

“The imperialist war, waged for the interests of monopoly capital, is bringing destruction to the entire world and has put humanity at risk from the very first step. Furthermore, the rising military tensions between nuclear powers have jeopardised the survival of the human race and the entire planet. Against this backdrop, building international people’s power against imperialist war— centred on working class leadership—is essential to defending humanity’s future,” the party warned.

The FSP stressed that regime change in Iran must be determined by the Iranian people themselves, not through imperialist invasions. It warned that if not resisted, Iran could face civil war and subjugation to imperialist interests, similar to Iraq, Syria, and Yemen.

“We call on the Iranian people, led by the working class, to build broad people’s power and confront their ruling class without falling into the imperialist trap. We encourage the Iranian people to link their struggle with the international working class to free themselves both from imperialist aggression and domestic repression. Let us oppose the imperialist war seeking global hegemony and advancing monopoly capitalist interests. Let us demand an immediate halt to the attacks on Iran and prevent escalation into catastrophe. Let us demand the immediate removal of U.S. military bases in the Middle East,” the FSP urged.

The party further demanded an immediate halt to attacks on Iran, prevention of further escalation, and the removal of US military bases in the Middle East.  

“To achieve these measures, the working class and the proletariat must unite against imperialists and their domestic allies. We call upon all working people worldwide to build a broad anti-imperialist mass movement, including the people of Sri Lanka, to join global action against imperialist war,” it added. (Newswire)
