We document an unofficial translation of a statement of the League of the Poor Peasants (LCP) in which they announce the death of Comrade Ludmila who died due to her illness because of missing health treatment. She was the widow of Comrade Renato who was already murdered in 2012 by the mercenaries of the great landowners and the old Brazilian state. The daughter of both is now an orphan by the guilt of the old Brazilian state.

Today the new issue of the "Antifaschistische Aktion - Infoblatt" was published. It is also available as .pdf file here. The current issue marks number 39 of the newspaper, which is published once a month. The "Antifaschistische Aktion - Infoblatt" is a revolutionary, antifascist newspaper from Austria. It strives to support struggles against imperialism and fascism through articles, correspondences, reports and spreading of various documents and statements. It can be purchased in various locations in the Austrian cities of Vienna, Linz and Innsbruck and also be read at some locations in Vienna and Eisenstadt.

The current issue covers, amongst others, the recent elections in Austria and the electoral boycott that was executed, abortion, and general revolutionary and antifascist news. It also includes a special supplement for the Great Socialist October Revolution, that is a timeline of the events in 1917 and a portrait of Wladimir Iljitsch Lenin, both in the form of a poster.


Under the guise of the so-called “War on Terror” imperialists, and most notably Yankee imperialism since 2002, frequently carry out military operations in Yemen, describing the country as a stronghold for groups and organisations opposed to their interests. Resulting from the imperialists intervention, Yemen is today considered to be the poorest country on the Arabian Peninsula, with tremendous shortages of basic supplies such as drinking water. Despite the war crimes committed by the imperialists and their lackeys however, there is still a continuing struggle against the assaults and invasions. A number of attacks targeting foreign military personal and equipment were conducted last month.

The 16th and 17th of October marked great days of action for the city of Oaxaca, when the comrades of Sol Rojo held their two day long “Days in Defence of the People’s Rights”. In an effort to act energetically, combative, quick and with mobility various activities with a huge mass mobilisation were launched under the slogan “Put Maoism at the forefront of the People’s Struggles”.

We document this english translation of the article from Number 197 of A Nova Democracia, published in October 2017:

 

The 100 years of the Great October Socialist Revolution

In October, the bolsheviks started preparing themselves actively for the insurrection. Lenin signaled that as they had the majority at the Workers and Soldiers Soviet Deputies, from Moscow and Petrograd, the bolsheviks would be able and should seizure power. Evaluating the way they had been so far Lenin concluded: “ The majority of the people are with us”.

After more then 13 years, the so-called “United Nations Stabilization Mission In Haiti” ended just four days ago, on the 15th of October. When UN forces took over Haiti in 2004 it was amidst political turmoil. Massive demonstrations against the government took place and US imperialism had already lain the ground work, openly deploying special forces in the country. After 13 years of de-facto occupation of the country the situation for the people has become not much better: Instead of the “relief” and “stabilization” the UN only brought cholera, gang shout-outs and an increase of prostitution to Haiti.

On the 12th of October students from several public universities of Colombia marched to defend the right to education. They denounced the actions of the state that push private universities with public resources, with resources intended to support the public universities. In Medellín several youth tried to enter the Alpujarra Administrative Center, resulting in clashes with the police. 

The comrades taking part in the mobilisation also highlighted important elements, amongst other things "by overcoming the limits of bourgeois legality, two tendencies present themselves: those who reject the way of creating facts and propose to keep the struggle in the narrow legal framework, and those who want to go further, since they understand that rights can only be conquered this way."

We document some photos of the mobilisation from the comrades of columbia:

We document this important document that was published today, an important document in defence of the chairman gonzalo and his universal contributions. We hope to publish an english translation in the near future and think it will be an interesting document for our readers that are able to understand french.

Défendre la vie du président Gonzalo, c’est défendre le maoïsme !
