Remembering Volunteer Seamus McElwain
We publish this important statement from irish comrades. We think it is very good for comrades to read it, so to better understand the historical process and the perspective of the irish revolution:
Remembering Volunteer Seamus McElwain
IRA Volunteer and Guerrilla leader, Seamus McElwain was born on April 1st 1960, to a Republican family in Knockacullion, close to Scotstown and Knockatallon in North County Monaghan, not far from Britain’s illegal border in Ireland. From a young age Seamus was aware of the continuing injustice of partition and British Occupation and in 1974, at age 14 he joined Na Fianna Éireann and took his place in the ranks of the Revolutionary Movement. Turning down the opportunity to study in America, Seamus defiantly declared, ‘nobody will ever accuse me of running away’.

HYLÄTKÄÄ ILLUUSIOT JA RYHTYKÄÄ TAISTELUUN!
We publish a translation of the 1st of May declaration in to finnish:
Kaikkien maiden proletaarit, liittykää yhteen!
HYLÄTKÄÄ ILLUUSIOT JA RYHTYKÄÄ TAISTELUUN!
Tiesimme jo, tunsimme sen ruumiissa ja sielussa, että tämä vanha maailma ei ole mitään muuta kuin helvettiä kansainväliselle proletariaatille ja maailman kansoille. Tiesimme jo sen, mikä viime kuukausina on näyttäytynyt. Jopa kaikkein imbesillein unelmoija, joka sulki silmänsä, on nähnyt imperialistista maailmanjärjestelmää koskevien illuusioiden sortuvan palasiksi, katoavan kuin savu ilmaan.

Kast illusionerne bort og kast jer ind i kampen!
We publish an danish translation of the 1st of May declaration:
Proletarer i alle lande, forén jer!
Kast illusionerne bort og kast jer ud i kampen!
Vi vidste allerede, vi følte det allerede i vores krop og sjæl, at denne gamle verden er intet andet end helvede for det internationale proletariat og verden folk. Vi vidste allerede, hvad der i de sidste måneder har vist sig. Selv den mest tåbelige drømmer der så blindt til, har set alle illusionerne omkring det imperialistisk verdenssystem gå i stykker, forsvinde som røg.
