Sixth Encuentro Tawaintisuyu Abya Yala Pacha Mapu Woumain "AGAINST THE IMPERIALISMS, CONTINENETAL DECOLONIZATIONS"

À l'occasion de la manifestation du 1er mai, il m'apparaît important de tirer certaines conséquences pour éviter de reproduire constamment les mêmes erreurs.

The Mandate of Heaven (Excerpt). A detailed account of Maoist Chinese foreign policy is beyond the scope of this article, but some examples will illustrate the central thesis: that China’s foreign policy is in no way different from that of other world powers. The Three-Worlds Theory was used to justify Chinese alliances with right-wing reactionary governments during the 1970s and 1980s.

The leaflet below was prepared for this May Day by the International Communist Party which continues after more than fifty years to represent the line of the objective historical interests of the world proletariat, by keeping alive the 145 year old militant and communist tradition of Marx and Engels, the Red October of Lenin and Trotsky, the uncorrupted Communist International, the Struggle of the Left Opposition sustained by the Italian Communist Left against the Stalinist Counter-revolution which lead to today’s tragic enfeeblement and confusion of forces seeking an authentic revolutionary response to all the attacks of Capital.

Shared by US Labor Against War

The first message is a May Day greeting from a broad cross-section of union leaders from many different unions and labor federations in Iraq as an expression of their appreciation for the solidarity demonstrated by organized labor, working people and all peace-loving people of the world in support of their efforts to end the foreign occupation of Iraq and the sectarian violence that occupation has spawned.

The second is a statement of solidarity from the General Union of Port Workers in Iraq to the members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) in support of the decision by ILWU members to shut down all the ports on the West Coast as a demonstration of their opposition to the war and occupation of Iraq.

Politicians like Giles Duceppe, leader of the Block, have become political assets on the backs of workers. Their slogan may be “Buy Canada” but what they’re really saying is “Sell everywhere”. Today it’s “Buy Canada” and tomorrow it’s “Defend Canada or Quebec”… And let us kill our enemies, the workers of Vietnam, China, Russia, Romania or elsewhere through a world war of their choosing. Capitalist competition, economic crises are always regulated by wars with workers from opposing imperialist camps, obliged to kill themselves.

Le slogan des politiciens et des syndicalistes est: « Buy Canada » mais ce qu’ils pensent en fait c’est « Sell everywhere ». Aujourd’hui c’est « Buy Canada » et demain ce sera « Défendons le Canada ou le Québec »… et tuons nos ennemis les ouvriers et ouvrières du Vietnam, de Chine, de Russie, de la Roumanie ou d’ailleurs lors d’une guerre mondiale qu’ils préparent. La concurrence capitaliste, les crises économiques se règlent toujours par des guerres avec des prolétaires de camps impérialistes opposés, qui sont obligés de s’entretuer.

Traduction du communiqué des Jeunes du Mouvement Social de Oaxaca relatif à la première caravane pour la défense de la terre et des droits des peuples à en disposer. Cette caravane se rendra dans l'Isthme de Tehuantepec, région envahie par les multinationales mais toujours en résistance.
