Chavez Smells the Dogs of War

Chavez Smells the Dogs of War
T.D McDonough

The war drums can be faintly heard across Latin America with the arch nations of Columbia and Venezuela flexing their might. The U.S. sponsored Colombian President Alvaro Uribe recently betrayed Chavez during his negotiations with the left wing FARC rebels, before making allegations against the Venezuelan premier. There is some lingering suspicion which suggests that Uribe, whispered to from Washington, is playing the aggressor in the hope of sparking a conflict that could justify U.S. intervention against Venezuela. In response, Chavez has signed a deal with China to purchase K-8 fighter jets.

“The government of Colombia is capable of provoking a war with Venezuela to justify a US intervention in Venezuela,” said President Chavez, earlier this week.

Of course, Venezuela is a threat to the spread of global Yankee capitalism and a further testament, like Cuba, to the effectiveness of Socialism in the modern world. In early 2002, the U.S. attempted to include Chavez and Venezuela in it’s misguided ‘Axis of Evil’ in the hope of drawing Chavez’s nation into the ‘War on Terror’. The move received global condemnation.

Viva Chavez!

Stop the War, London 2008

STOP THE WAR: London 2008 

On Saturday 25th March, we gathered together in London and marched from Trafalgar Square to Parliament Square in demonstration against the ‘War on Terror’, in whatever guise it may appear. Similarly, comrades around the globe united, from Paris to New York, in order to voice their anger at the imperialist agenda.

The mainstream media cited the attendance as a mere 10,000, but the reality saw the streets filled with over 40,000 protesters, still willing to fight against the machine, over five years on. One day, my friends…

Big thanks to Nadeem Baghdadi for the excellent photographs.

The Left Wing Resurgence

The Left Wing Resurgence

 

The left has seen quite a large resurgence over the weekend. Not only has Cuba successfully held elections, positioning Raul Castro as President, but the Mediterranean island of Cyprus has voted, with a 70% majority, for Demetris Christofias’s Communist Party.

The Cypriot nation has voted in favour of the left wing party which seeks to reunite the island and move away from the current Greek/Turkish divide. This is surely a favourable conclusion to the strife that Cyprus has faced over the past few decades.

The picture for Cuba can only get brighter as the rolls onward. The US must face the fact that sanctions, terrorism and propaganda have had little effect on the resolve of the Cuban people. If anything, the US has only strengthened the unity and comradery alive on the little isle of Cuba. Castro’s legacy may be fading, Che may be gone, but the revolution still lives.

Viva la Revolucion!

World Against War - 15th March in London

Troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan
Don’t attack Iran
End the siege of Gaza
Saturday 15th March
Assemble 12 noon, Trafalgar Square, London

Be there: your freedom depends on the freedom of others. 

“It’s now five years since Tony Blair took us into an illegal and immoral war. A million innocents have been killed in Iraq. We haven’t heard a lot about weapons of mass destruction since Tony Blair was caught out on that one. We got rid of him but what makes me angry is that Gordon Brown has made no changes and no apologies. Just like Blair, he has refused even to meet the families who have lost loved ones in his war. We must keep marching to let Brown know we are on his case too”
