The International Socialist Organization (ISO) was a Trotskyist organization in the United States. It attacked Cuba, the DPRK, and China (both in the Mao era and after Deng's reforms) and described them as "Stalinist." Despite claiming to be anti-imperialist, it supported Statesian imperialism against Yugoslavia, Libya and Syria[1] and advocated for regime change in China.[2]
