STALIN on the Labour Party and on NATO

Posted by: John Phoenix Apropos of the Statement of Mr. Morrison [the British Foreign Secretary ot the then Labor governement] Mr. Morrison has put forward two sets of questions: questions concerning internal politics and those dealing with external politics. Internal Politics Mr. Morrison affirms that in the Soviet Union there is no freedom of speech, press or personal freedom. Mr. Morrison is grievously mistaken. In no other country exists such kind of freedom of speech, press or personal freedom, organisations for workers, peasants and the intelligentsia as in the Soviet Union. Nowhere are there as many clubs for workers and peasants, as many newspapers specifically for them as in the Soviet Union. Nowhere has the working class been organised in such a system...

Revisionism and the general election

Posted by: John Phoenix The opportunism and dogmatism of the Communist Party of Britain (CPB), and its predecessor organisation the Communist Party of Great Britain post 1951, is well known to all genuine Marxist-Leninists and anti-imperialists. The fateful decision taken in 1951 to advocate for supporting the Labour Party is one that has never been reversed and ultimately led to the destruction of the old CPGB in 1988, the new version that emerged since then has kept this fatal error in its updated version of the bible of British opportunism entitled The British Road to Socialism.  As the working class has turned against the Labour Party in ever greater numbers over the years, the CPB remained absolutely committed to the line that the Labour Party must be suppor...

A specific communist’s perspective of a general election

Posted by: John Phoenix A lot has changed since the general election of 2019 and, from the British working class’s perspective, none of it has been positive. From this writer’s personal perspective, the fact that I am a now committed communist has been transformational. It’s important to explain a little of my journey to this moment because it has relevance to my understanding of the 2024 election. It gives some context to my grasp of the nature and makeup of our world, and how it influences my approach to the spectacle and farce we call democracy. Most importantly, I hope it will resonate with you the reader …. My parents were communists so my entire childhood was steeped in the language of socialism and the pursuit of justice, freedom and the defeat of capitalism. As a chi...

Ukraine – a futile imperialist peace summit

Posted by: John Phoenix Back in May, without making much of a splash in the mainstream press, China and Brazil presented a joint proposal to start peace talks that would include both Kiev and Russia. Unlike the sham peace talks being planned by Switzerland to take place in Lucerne, the China/Brazil talks would include both Moscow and Kiev, reasoning that you cannot get far trying to negotiate peace if one of the sides is banned from entry. China and Brazil had no plans to send a high level delegation on a wild goose chase around the Alps, preferring to press for genuine talks. The sham summit, which opened on 14 June, was certainly a grand affair. The Swiss government invited over 160 countries, put the delegates in a posh hotel overlooking Lake Lucerne, and announced that t...

Depleted Nazi military on brink of collapse

Posted by: John Phoenix As the Israeli army faces severe personnel shortages, fatigue and desertion, and with their political leadership focusing on personal survival, a top Israeli general is predicting that the end of Israel is near at hand. By Dan Cohen This article is reproduced from Uncaptured Media, with thanks. ***** On 9 October, two days after the surprise Hamas military assault on Israeli bases and settlements surrounding Gaza, prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged to defeat Hamas. However, eight months later, Israel has failed to achieve its stated goal. Instead, it is facing unprecedented international isolation, political instability, charges of genocide at the top world court, and arrest warrants for its leadership. With no end in sight as ...

All the weapons of the West

Posted by: John Phoenix The imperialists are finding out to their cost that it is people, not weapons, that are ultimately decisive in war. On 5 June, during a visit to the town of Kiryat Shmona, near the Lebanese border of northern occupied Palestine, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel was prepared for “very intense action” to “restore security” for the settlers who have been evacuated. “Whoever thinks that they can hurt us and that we will sit idly by is making a big mistake,” he said. “One way or another, we will restore security to the north.” To all non-Western ears, that sounded like bluff and bravado. The military battle being waged in and around Palestine has by no means been dominated by Israel and its Western backers. Qui...

Russia and the DPRK: Traditions of friendship and cooperation through the years

Posted by: John Phoenix Article by Vladimir Putin in Rodong Sinmun newspaper, June 18, 2024 On the eve of my state visit to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, I would like to address the Korean and foreign audience of the Rodong Sinmun newspaper to share my thoughts on the prospects for partnership between our states and on their role in the modern world. The relations of friendship and neighbourliness between Russia and the DPRK, based on the principles of equality, mutual respect and trust, go back more than seven decades and are rich in glorious historical traditions. Our peoples cherish the memory of their difficult joint struggle against Japanese militarism and honour the heroes who fell in it. In August 1945, Soviet soldiers, fi...

This being the case, is there any hope of ever changing U.S. policy? President Bill Clinton as well as most members of Congress support Israel—and they know why. U.S. Jews sympathetic to Israel donate lavishly to their campaign coffers. The answer to achieving an even-handed Middle East policy might lie elsewhere—among those who support Israel but don’t really know why. This group is the vast majority o...

Welcome to Hell

Posted by: John Phoenix   “Welcome to Hell” is a report on the abuse and inhuman treatment of Palestinians held in Israeli custody since 7 October 2023. B’Tselem collected testimonies from 55 Palestinians held during that time and released, almost all with no charges. Their testimonies reveal the outcomes of the rushed transformation of more than a dozen Israeli prison facilities, military and civilian, into a network of camps dedicated to the abuse of inmates as a matter of policy. Facilities in which every inmate is deliberately subjected to harsh, relentless pain and suffering operate as de-facto torture camps. (graphic) Executive summary reposted from B’Tselem, the Israeli information center for human rights in the Occupied Territories When we got off the bus...
