\nSince the first publication of the Top 10 stories posted on IWL-FI\u2019s website, in 2011, they show an increasing interest of ours readers in the main scenarios of the world class struggles. This year is not different.\u00a0<\/span>
\nAmong the Top 10, three are related with the revolutions in the north of Africa and the Middle East, two on Egypt\u2019s situation, expressing the contradictory way the revolution is advancing, after Morsi was toppled by the mass movement in conjunction with a military coup and now the fight against the new dictatorial government of the military regime. The other one talks about the Syrian revolution and the difficult struggle of the women for their rights.
\nAlso in the Middle East, the Palestinian fight against Israel\u2019s oppression is moving ahead with the success reached by the BDS Campaign all over the world, expressed in our list by two stories, one on the adhesion of the CSP-Conlutas to the Campaign and the other on Stephen Hawking\u2019s refuse to participate in academic issues sponsored by Israel.
\nWhat was a surprise for us in 2011: the score reached by India\u2019s class struggle stories can\u2019t be considered so any more. This year, it placed three stories in the Top 10, on the general strike and on the protests that crossed the country against rapes, after a young woman had been brutally raped and assassinated by a gang in a bus.
\nThe European economic crisis and the workers\u2019 fight against the social war imposed on them by the Troika is the subject of the fourth most read story, written by\u00a0Corriente Roja<\/em>, the Spanish section of the IWL-FI.
\nFinally, we\u2019d like to highlight the women\u2019s question as one of the more important issues our website is covering and that has been correspondingly followed by our readers. In the Top 10 stories three are related to the fight against women\u2019s oppression. The first and second ones, as said above, are against rapes in India and women\u2019s struggle in Syria. The third is a major issue to all revolutionary organizations: their morals and the women\u2019s oppression, a question raised after a militant of the British SWP accused of rape a national leader of that party.
\nThe IWL website\u2019s team wants to thank all our readers for their continuing support, which resulted in nearly 157,000 hits monthly (in four languages), with a peak of 250,669 hits in June. It represents an increase of more than 50% if compared to 2012.
