US imperialism will get worse under Trump
In a statement, LIBERATION sounds the alarm on the returning president, whose agenda on Cuba, Iran and, above all, rabid support for Israel’s radical right are a huge concern

Trump’s election victory was greeted enthusiastically by Netanyahu and his supporters in Tel Aviv.
