DEM VOLKE DIENEN

Following the call to participate in a counter-demonstration some hundred people gathered in the finish town of Tampere last Saturday to oppose a rally partitioning for stricter immigration laws organized by the fascist Nordic Resistance Movement (NRM). Outnumbering the fascists many times over and despite the deployment of heavily armed riot police the protesters were able to encircle the demonstration, delay their progress and, more then once, directly engage them.

On occasion of the publication of two new posters - one send to us, the other published in a recent article of A Nova Democracia - in regards to the international campaign on occasion of the 100th anniversary of the Great Socialist October Revolution we prepared a small gallery depicting them all:

For more then two years now ten members of democratic and revolutionary organisations of Turkish immigrants in Europe are imprisoned by the government of the FRG. They are on trail for their dedicated work for the Turkish people and the world proletariat, and accused of membership of the TCP/ML, which is considered to be a terrorist organisation by German imperialism. To support them and demand their release, a manifestation was held in front of the Munich court last Friday, on the occasion of yet another day of hearing.

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”.
