by the Left Radicals of Afghanistan (LRA)We support negotiations in principle, but any negotiations that victimize the values and achievements of the brave struggle of the anti-occupation resistance would not be accepted by any independent anti-occupation forces of the Afghan resistance.A small part of the Taliban and some unsatisfied groups were busy in hidden negotiations with the Karzai government and occupier forces in particularly a month ago, but in practice their were no developments, instead heavy fighting, hundred of killings and casualties and tens of suicide attacks. The Karzai puppet regime and his foreign masters made huge propaganda efforts, resorted to these negotiations aimed at undermining the moral of the resistance and on the other hand to show to the "international … [read more]

Citizen Tribunal on Israeli crimes against Lebanon and PalestineProposal for setting up an international citizens' tribunal on the deeds committed by the Israeli army and secret services in Lebanon and the occupied Palestinian territories The deeds committed by the Israeli army and secret services in Lebanon, as in the occupied Palestinian territories, constitute a violent affront to the universal human conscience. These are criminal acts, as many people feel instinctively. They are different from the acts that take place in all armed conflict committed by the aggressor as well as by the aggressed. But feeling is not enough. The facts must be established. They must then be assessed in the light of existing international law. This should be done with the detachment and … [read more]

A comment by Lars Akerhaug, NorwayOnce again the Turkish generals threaten to invade areas in Northern Iraq, or, if you want, Southern Kurdistan. Historically these areas with their flat fields around Euphrates and Tigris, surrounded by peaked mountaintops have been home for a multitude of religions and cultures, in the way mountainous areas often are. But after decades of war, dictatorship and ethnic persecution these places have been cleansed of minorities, in the way it often happens when imperialist forces cut artificial borders and build artificial states. But since the occupation of Iraq this area has actually been one of the few things Washington dares to boast about. The area of the Kurdish regional government has been noted for its stability and has seen economic … [read more]

Iran: prossima tappa della guerra infinita? "Tutto ਠpronto per la guerra. E l'offensiva non colpirà  soltanto gli impianti nucleari ma cancellerà  tutta la potenza iraniana.Concentrando le forze d'attacco più moderne in orde come quelle di Gengis Khan" L'attacco all'Iran ਠgià  stato deciso? Le pesanti minacce americane sono l'anticamera della guerra o invece sono soltanto un modo di tenere sotto pressione e ricattare il regime di Tehran? La maggior parte degli analisti strategici americani ਠconvinta che Bush e la sua cricca abbiano già  deciso si sferrare un massiccio e devastante attacco all'Iran entro la primavera del 2008. Anche noi tendiamo a ritenere altamente probabile quest'esito. La Casa Bianca vorrebbe, con un colpo solo ma micidiale, raddrizzare le sorti … [read more]

Neither Than Shwe nor San Suu KyiSince mid August Myanmar is being rocked by popular protest.The triggering factor of the mobilisations has been the decision by the military junta to implement the directives of the World Bank and the IMF, i.e. to double fuel prices followed by different goods of basic needs. Having started spontaneously in the capital, these demonstrations have spread and become politicised. The step from demanding reduction of the price hike to demanding the end the hated military dictatorship has not been a wide one.The main opposition force, the National League for Democracy (NLD) of which Nobel laureate San Suu Kyi has been the icon for years, after a first moment of embarrassment, has been trying to channel the movement and to use it as pressure tool to force the … [read more]

Free the 22 arrested Batasuna leadersFollowing a call by the Communist Organisation of Greece (KOE) which we fully support and extend to all democratic and anti-imperialist forces of the world:On October 2 the Spanish State arrested Joseba Alvarez, former MEP and actual International Relations Officer of Batasuna, Ohiane Agirre, spokeswoman of Batasuna, and Asier Tapia, member of the youth movement. The accusations against them, apart from being a mere pretext and clearly unfounded, are hardly hiding the decision of the Spanish State to refuse any substantial dialogue with the Basque People, who has times and again expressed, democratically and persistently, its will to be recognized the right of self-determination. We are now learning that an even more dramatic escalation of the … [read more]

Signature campaignThose of us who sign this document raise the necessity to release Arnaldo Otegi for the reasons exposed next:1 - We understand that the political interlocution is the basic instrument to maintain the necessary communication to forward alternatives, as well as to debate and negotiate them between the parts involved, in order to be able to articulate the political agreements with which the Basque Country will reach a scene of peace and freedom.2 - For that reason, we believe that Arnaldo Otegi's imprisonment is a very serious incident, since he is one of the main interlocutors of the Basque pro-Independence Left and, as it is publicly known he has carried out very important work in the search of a democratic solution to the political conflict that suffers the Basque … [read more]

by Frank Friedrich Kling, USAIn a further blow to American military jurisprudence, the Marine corp. squad leader responsible for an assault in Haditha, Iraq that killed 24 innocent men, women, and children will not be tried for murder based on the recommendation handed out today by the Haditha investigating officer, Lt. Col. Paul Ware. Lt. Col. Ware recommended to Lt. Gen. James Mattis, the commanding general overseeing the case, that Staff Sergeant Frank Wuterich previously charged with the murder of 17 Iraqis should instead face prosecution for negligent homicide. A conviction for negligent homocide would result in a maximum sentence of three years prison versus life for murder. Wuterich's attorney, Neal Puckett said, "We're both very pleased and also not surprised given how the other … [read more]

by Frank Friedrich Kling, USAA U.S. military courts marshal has acquitted an army sniper, Jorge G. Sandoval, in the murder of two Iraqi civilians. Instead the military tribunal found Sandoval guilty of a much lesser offense of planting bomb detonation wires on one of the bodies to make it look as if the men were Iraqi insurgents. The soldier faces just 44 days of confinement for the lessor offense. A reasonable person must ask how a court could declare the men killed as innocent civilians, yet the army sniper did not commit murder. Does this not appear as a prima facie contradiction? Sandoval received warm embraces from his military lawyers after the verdicts were announced in a courtroom located on the former grounds of President Saddam Hussein and which is not part of a massive … [read more]

abbreviated press communiquà© 24 September 2007. A World to Win News Service. Warning that "the country is now at the frontier of a big revolutionary possibility and an awful accident", the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) has left the government. In a reversal of policy, it announced a programme of mass street protests to "disrupt all ongoing election plans", namely the Constituent Assembly initially to be held last June and now scheduled for 22 November. In April 2006 a mass upsurge forced the king to bring back the parliament he had suspended. A seize-fire was declared in the ten-year people's war that the CPN(M) had been leading. In November of that year, the party signed a 12-point Comprehensive Political Agreement with the seven parliamentary parties to form an interim government … [read more]

Statement by the 1920 Revolution Brigades, Iraq Free people of the world, we believe it is time to provide you with another updated report on the status of the war as we in the resistance factions perceive. We have several indications from the fields and from within the puppet government in Baghdad that the tactics used by the occupation forces have developed, yet the strategic aims that drive them, remains the same and in order to clarify the nature of such developments we must return to the facts. The invasion of Iraq was based on lies mainly as we all must not forget, that the previous government was stocking weapons of mass destruction and had links to the infamous Al-Qaida. After the initial stages of this war, the world discovered the scale of the White House deception. To avoid … [read more]
