Happy Birthday, Comrade Mao… and happy belated birthday to Comrade Lin Biao!

December 26, 2009

All apologies to Comrade Lin Biao, we Maoist-Third Worldists (especially IJC) are still updating our celebrated holidays. Forget the Amerikkkan's "Khri$tmass". The revolutionary leadership of Stalin, Mao, and Lin the real gift to the world. This is because the policies that they upheld led to doubling the life expectancies of their respective populations!

Stalin, Mao, and Lin Biao born in December

(monkeysmashesheaven.wordpress.com)

Three great revolutionaries were born in December.

Stalin was born on December 21st, 1887. Stalin is remembered for his great accomplishment of leading the Soviet Union through socialist construction. He is also remembered for making the hard decisions that led to the defeat of the Nazis. Had it not been for Stalin’s leadership, the Nazi tanks would have rolled to the Pacific Ocean.

The exploited and oppressed people today look to the Soviet Union in its glory days as a model of economic development and modernization that did not rely, as the imperialists did, on the plunder and exploitation of other countries.  At the onset of the Soviet revolution, their country was one of the most backward in Europe. It was through the leadership of Lenin, but especially Stalin, that by the end of World War 2, the Soviet Union was able to challenge the Western imperialists on a global scale.

Mao was born on December 26th, 1893. Mao described the oppression of the Chinese people as follows:

“Today, two big mountains lie like a dead weight on the Chinese people. One is imperialism, the other is feudalism. The Chinese Communist Party has long made up its mind to dig them up. We must persevere and work unceasingly, and we, too, will touch God’s heart. Our God is none other than the masses of the Chinese people. If they stand up and dig together with us, why can’t these two mountains be cleared away?”

It was under Mao’s leadership that a quarter of the world’s population stood up, threw off the chains of imperialism, feudalism and comprador capitalism, and sought to create a world without oppression. A quarter of the world’s females were liberated from some of the worst forms of patriarchal oppression. A quarter of humanity sought to radically transform the world, to end oppression once and for all, to embark on the road to communism. It was Mao who initiated the Cultural Revolution to continue the forward motion of the revolution. Although Mao made errors, we recognize that Mao Zedong was, in many respects, the greatest revolutionary leader of all time.

Lin Biao was born on December 5th, 1907. Lin Biao is known as the greatest of China’s revolutionary marshals. Lin Biao was a key military and political leader.

Lin Biao was a strong proponent of egalitarianism in all spheres of life. It was under Lin Biao’s leadership that the Chinese People’s Liberation Army abolished outward sign of rank. The egalitarianism of the People’s Liberation Army became a model for all of society during the Cultural Revolution. Lin Biao and Chen Boda, before they fell, were big proponents of increasing collectivization of the economy during the Cultural Revolution. It was Lin Biao who first published Quotations by Chairman Mao (“the little red book”), in order to put Maoism in a more accessible form for China’s masses. It was first published for the People’s Liberation Army, later it was utilized by all of Chinese society for making revolution. Many of Lin Biao’s reforms of the People’s Liberation Army that began in 1959 were adopted by the Cultural Revolutionaries and applied to all of society. For example, Lin Biao was the first to raise the slogan “Put politics in command!,” a slogan that was later adopted by the Cultural Revolution.

Lin Biao was the first to declare that Mao’s contributions constituted a new, higher stage of Marxism. Lin Biao, along with Chen Boda, did the most to promote Maoism as a system and to raise up Maoism as Maoism.

Perhaps Lin Biao’s greatest contribution is his characterization of the world revolution as a global people’s war where the oppressed and exploited peoples of the global countryside are set against the oppressor and exploiter populations of the global city. Lin Biao’s outlook correctly implies that the peoples of the First World are not friends of the world revolution. From a Marxist point of view, the peoples of the First World are to be written off in the main. Thus Lin Biao’s work foreshadows the global class analysis and other breakthroughs of Maoism-Third Worldism.

Let’s remember the contributions of these and all great revolutionaries this month.

Happy Birthday, Comrade Stalin!

December 22, 2009

Red Salute to you, Joseph Dzhugashvili, a.k.a. Comrade Stalin on your 130th birthday!  IJC will depart from our usual materialist mode of opposing personality cults for only for a yearly occasion such as this.  The hearts of the peoples of the former Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, the John Browns in the First World, and the exploited and oppressed peoples of the Third World are filled with communist festive cheer for the leader of the victorious worldwide anti-fascist movement.  You literally gave life to millions of people that would have died of preventable disease, starvation, illiteracy, patriarchy, exploitation, and being outright enslaved or slaughtered by the imperialist Axis hordes.

And hey Amerikkka, as you try to continue to twist the meaning of justice in the world and in history, we of the Internationalist Jacobin Club say: FUCK YOUR SANTA CLAUS.  Your $atan Claws is none other than the united $nakes, and it doesn’t have any elves making the toys, but exploited nation labor.  Hungry kids from the Third World making toys for spoiled brats in the First World.  Any system that continues to divide up the children of the world in such a way is a system worthy of being utterly destroyed.  Your $atan Claws gives the kids misery and death every Chri$tmass season.  While he lived, Josef Stalin gave the children all over Eurasia a fighting chance to grow up healthy, to be fully educated, and to actually lead society towards a peaceful communist future.  The amerikkkans have it all backwards as to who the good guys are, but the kids in the Third World will grow up to correct the situation with Global People’s War and the JDPEN.

Here, we reprint an excerpt from a Monkey Smashes Heaven article on Comrade Stalin:

Stalin’s legacy

It was under Stalin’s leadership that some of the greatest humanitarian victories of the last century were won. The Soviet Union was the first. Under Stalin’s leadership, the Soviet countries went from the backwater of Europe to surpassing it in many ways, becoming a modern superpower able to challenge imperialism on a worldwide scale.

Quality of life increased for the Soviet peoples under Stalin. Despite the austerity forced on the Soviet peoples by Stalin’s industrialization program and by World War 2, life generally improved. Public education and health care expanded under Stalin’s regime. Life expectancy doubled under the Stalin regime. (7) Life expectancy under Stalin was greater than it has been in recent times in Russia despite all of the technological advances in medicine. (8) It was under Stalin’s leadership that the majority of the population gained access to full rights as proletarian citizens. It was under his leadership that women, non-Russians, declassed and ex-peasants gained full access to work in the modern Soviet economy. This major social shift not only represented higher pay for the majority, but it also represented more autonomy in the private realm and more political power for the masses. Under Stalin greater numbers gained a voice in the Soviet system. (9)

Under Stalin, the Soviet Union was a beacon of hope to the world’s people. Harry Haywood, a Black communist leader, recounts an encounter with racism in the Soviet Union. In Stalin’s Soviet Union, racism was treated very differently than in was in the United States, which still had legally enforced White supremacy in the form of Jim Crow laws:

“In the Soviet Union, remnants of national and racial prejudice from the old society were attacked by education and law. It was a crime to give or receive direct or indirect privileges, or to exercise discrimination because of race or nationality. Any manifestation of racial or national superiority was punishable by law and was regarded as a serious political offense, a social crime.

During my entire stay in the Soviet Union, I encountered only one incident of racial hostility. It was on a Moscow streetcar. Several of us Black students had boarded the car on our way to spend an evening with out friend MacCloud. It was after rush hour and the car was only about half filled with Russian passengers. As usual, we were subjects of friendly curiosity. At one stop, a drunken Russian staggered aboard. Seeing us, he muttered (but loud enough for the whole car to hear) something about ‘Black devils in our country.’

A group of outraged Russian passengers thereupon seized him and ordered the motorman to stop the car. It was a citizen’s arrest, the first I had ever witnessed. ‘How dare you, you scum, insult people who are guests in our country!’…

‘No, citizens,’ said a young man (who had done most of the talking), ‘drunk or not, we don’t allow this sort of thing in our country…’” (10)

In addition to fighting racism and national oppression in the Soviet Union, Stalin used his influenced to combat White chauvinism within North America. It was Stalin who forced the Communist Party USA to embrace the Black Belt thesis, the thesis that the states of the Southeast U.S. constitute a separate, Black national homeland. Thus, Stalin was one of the first Black nationalists. Stalin’s theory is still upheld by some Black national liberation forces today.

The leadership in the Stalin era faced a dilemma. Stalin famously said that the Soviet peoples must industrialize or face annihilation. Stalin’s austerity programs, breakneck industrialization and collectivization, and modernization programs may have been hard to bear, but they were necessary. Stalin’s prediction proved true in 1941 when Nazi forces invaded the Soviet Union. The Nazi invasion cost the lives of 27 million Soviet people. Had Stalin not wielded a heavy hand, then many more lives would have been lost and Hitler’s tanks would have rolled all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Because of Stalin’s policies, the Soviet Union had the industrial base to defeat the Nazi onslaught. Stalin was the most important leader in saving the world from fascism in World War 2.

At every turn, the capitalists try to misrepresent the true record of socialism. There is a long history of distortion and fraud perpetuated by the capitalists. (11) The verdict of this trial is part of a long history of lies. Communists do not buy into the sensational lies and distortions of the capitalists. Communists also do not dogmatically defend every error or excess that may have occurred. Rather, communists  take a balanced and critical view of our own history. Communists defend what is correct and abandon what is not. This is the scientific approach.

All of his life Stalin fought for socialism. In his earlier days as a revolutionary, he put himself in the line of fire as a guerrilla, robbing banks in order to fund the revolution. Later, he waged struggle against all kinds of revisionism, especially Trotskyism. Stalin led the Soviet Union through very difficult times. The times were hard and called for tough measures. Even in this context, Stalin was able to carry out significant social revolution. As Mao pointed out, Stalin made significant errors, but they are our errors. They are errors that communists take responsibility for. His errors are part of the inevitable trial and error, the zigzag path, of socialist construction.

Gringos should pay their eco-debt II: Reparations for Bhopal under the JDPEN!

December 3, 2009

With the 25th anniversary of the imperialist eco-massacre in Bhopal, MSH has now (in less than one week) covered major locations among the three major global regions comprising the Third World that have been ecologically ravaged by the First World; Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The common oppression of the Third World makes the Global People's War (GPW) concept, as articulated in Comrade Lin Biao's "Long Live the Victory of People's War", the best vehicle for the eventual establishment of a global socialist system. This foundation of this system, in turn, is the best vehicle for extracting justice and reparations to the Third World from the First World and saving the planet itself: The Joint Dictatorship of the Proletariat of the Exploited Nations (JDPEN). If you thought Amerikkka didn't owe massive reparations to the Third World after reading just these past two articles, IJC doesn't know what can be done about your lack of cognition regarding class struggle. Sorry!

25th Anniversary of Union Carbide murders in Bhopal,India

(monkeysmashesheaven.wordpress.com)

Hundreds marched through the city of Bhopal, India to mark the 25th anniversary of the worst industrial accident on record. The marchers demand clean-up of their poisoned environment. In the face of the public outrage, local politicians read from their scripts. They feign outrage over the human tragedy. They shed their crocodile tears. The imperialists and their agents have ignored Bhopal for 25 years, marching in the streets will not get them to accept their responsibility and act.

In Bhopal, India on December 3, 1984, a gas leak killed about 10,000 people in a few days. Later, 25,000 more are estimated to have died and over half a million who survived the initial effects are thought to have suffered from the aftereffects. Lung cancer, kidney failure, liver disease and other illnesses related to the accident have killed many others in the two decades since the initial gas leak. According to the government of India, 500,000 people were affected by the gas. Local activists claim that the scope of the death and harm is much greater than previous estimates.

After the disaster, Union Carbide simply abandoned the factory, leaving India stuck with the mess. Almost a quarter century since the leak, slums have grown around the site of the accident. Slums now exist side-by-side with millions of tons of toxic waste that has yet to be cleaned up. The Union Carbide factory site has yet to be cleaned up. Authorities have yet to study the effects of the remaining toxic waste on the drinking water and environment of local communities. The assumption here is that the poor of India are not worth the cost involved in removing the waste. The crimes of Union Carbide are typical examples of how First World corporations, literally, get away with murder.

At the time of the initial disaster, Mother Teresa, a whopping fraud, showed up immediately for a press conference at which she simply said “I say ‘Forgive,’” then drifted off like royalty. Although there was a 480 million dollar judgment against Union Carbide, the money went to the Indian state, not directly to the victims. Much of the money did not make it to the victims. In many cases, victims only received 550 dollars per person. Letting the guilty corporate criminals off the hook has been the pattern ever since.

The Indian state and Union Carbide have long neglected the ongoing problems of contamination of soil and water. The fate of Bhopal is symbolic of the fate of the Third World as a whole. Imperialists profit of off and destroy the Third World. The imperialists kill thousands and harm many more. Yet the imperialists and the Indian state face no repercussions.

Capitalism-imperialism is a system that serves the market. Under this system, First World peoples and their agents in the Third World grow wealthy at the expense of the Indian masses. The Indian masses barely survive, or, as in Bhopal, even worse, they are written-off as the cost of doing business. Under capitalism-imperialism, a few First World countries grow rich off of the vast majority of humanity in the Third World. Global socialism, by contrast, advocates an egalitarian and just relationship between countries. Socialism, by contrast, organizes all of society around the principle of serving the people. Under global socialism, the wealth that the First World has stolen will be redistributed to India and the rest of the Third World. The First World owes a debt, only people’s war can collect.

Maoism-Third Worldism on the Death Penalty under JDPEN: On the original ‘Plan de San Diego’ in a contemporary context

September 12, 2009
1949-Mao-Moscow

This article is in part a response to a comment by Serve the People in the JDPEN Outline post.  The comment reads:

Comrade, I agree that things were not perfect in occupied eastern Germoney. I’m not convinced that that part of Germoney ever quite made it to socialism. On the other hand, proletarianizing that fascist population was a task of monumental proportions. I don’t believe that it could have been achieved in the short few years before the Soviet Union itself went revisionist. Proletarianizing a thoroughly reactionary population like Germoney or Amerikkka may take several generations.

I’m not quite sure what you mean by a Soviet version of the Plans of San Diego. Are you saying that the Soviet Red Army should have killed off all Germans?

The short answer is NO.  The same goes for the JDPEN’s settling of accounts with the other First World parasite majority populations.  Just imagine the shit fit we communists would be getting into if we were ever to advocate mass killings of any group of humans, oppressors and net exploiters included!  Fortunately, communists (Maoist-Third Worldists) are humanitarians in the fullest sense.  We do not, and I repeat, DO NOT believe in the democide of the class enemy, whether during initial revolution or JDPEN, because we insist on acting in a scientific and strategic way as we move towards communism rather than acting on vengeful bloodlusts.  This in opposition to fake “Maoists” calling reparations, GPW, and JDPEN as manifestations of the “revenge line”, which they do to backhandedly deny the principal contradiction between First World and Third World.

The anti-communist academics (1) like to point out the grim fates of those “Enemies of the People”  under Stalin and Mao as evidence of this so-called “inherent bloodlust” among the communists and their leadership.  Their bourgeois-idealist accounts leave out all the material facts and contradictions of that period and read as though no world existed outside of these so-called “totalitarian” socialist states, the Soviet Union (pre-1950’s) and China (early 70’s).  The actual historical record disputes their “scholarly” accounts.  Comrade Stalin wrote ‘Dizzy With Success’ (2) to put the breaks on excesses taking place in the struggle for the Soviet Union’s agriculture collectivization in the 1930’s.  Stalin also had Nikolai Yezhov (head of the NKVD) shot for executing and imprisoning many innocent people in the late 1930’s.

Comrade Mao explains in ‘Ten Major Relationships’ (3) under the eighth “major relationship” point (ref. as “MR8″) not only the ethical and security issues around executions but also the science behind it.  KKKasama omits large portions of MR8 and follows up with a liberal, idealist discussion of the “horrific” exercise of proletarian state power, borrowing very much from the paradigm and methods of the anti-communist academics mentioned above!  In contrast,  the full context of what Mao said in MR8 says that communists should always be vigilant against counter-revolutionaries, and some of the worst enemies of the people will most certainly be executed.  However, Comrade Mao puts forward the notion that enemies can be reformed into “new people”, and that the policy of reform of class enemies through labor be the general policy as opposed to executions.

Observe Mao’s analysis of the eighth “Major Relationship” in full context here:

8.- The relationship between revolutionary and counter-revolutionary

What kind of element is a counter-revolutionary element? It is a negative element, a destructive element. It is not a positive element. It is a force opposed to positive elements. Can a negative element turn into a positive element? Can a destructive element turn into a beneficial element? Can a counter-revolutionary change? This depends on social conditions. Completely stubborn, dyed-in-the-wool counter-revolutionaries undoubtedly exist. But where the majority of them are concerned, given our social conditions, the day may come when they do change. Of course, there are some who will not have time to change before they are summoned by the King of Hell. And, as for some others, who knows when they will change? Because of the people's strength, and because of our correct policy towards counter-revolutionary elements of allowing them to reform themselves through labor and become new people, there have been many counter-revolutionaries who have given up being counter-revolutionary. They have taken part in agricultural and industrial labor; some of them have become very active and done useful work. There are a number of points about the work of suppressing counter- revolution which need affirmation. For instance, should we have carried out the suppression of counter-revolution of 1951-52? It seems that some hold that we should not have carried this out. This view is wrong. It must be recognized that this campaign was necessary. The methods of handling counter-revolutionaries are execution, imprisonment, probation and release. Everybody knows what execution is. Imprisonment means locking people up and allowing them to reform themselves through labour. Probation means placing them in society to be supervised and remoulded by the masses. Release means not arresting those who might or might not be arrested, or releasing those who behave well after arrest. It is altogether right that we give different kinds of counter-revolutionary elements different treatment according to circumstances. These methods all need to be explained carefully to the common people. Whom have we executed? What sort of people? Elements for whom the masses had great hatred, and whose blood-debt was heavy. In a great revolution of 600 million people, if we did not kill some tyrants, or if we were too lenient to them, the masses would not agree. It is still of practical significance to affirm that it was correct to execute these people. Not to give that affirmation would be bad. This is the first point. The second point needing affirmation is that counter-revolutionary elements still exist in society, though there are now far fewer of them. Our social discipline is very good, but we still should not relax our vigilance. To say that not one counter-revolutionary remains and then sit back and take things easy would be wrong. There is still a small number of counter-revolutionaries carrying out sabotage; for example, killing cattle, burning grain, wrecking factories, stealing information, peddling counter-revolutionary slogans, etc. In future, in suppressing counter-revolution in our society we must make fewer arrests and carry out fewer executions. We should hand the majority of counter-revolutionaries over to the agricultural cooperatives so that they may participate in productive work under supervision, and be transformed through labor. But we should not declare that we shall never execute anyone. We cannot abolish the death penalty. If a counter-revolutionary were to commit murder or to blow up a factory, do you think he should be executed? He most definitely should. The third point which should be affirmed concerns the work of suppressing counter-revolutionaries in government offices, schools and the army. We must keep up the policy which we started in Yenan: "No executions and few arrests". There are some whom we do not execute, not because they have done nothing to deserve death, but because killing them would bring no advantage, whereas sparing their lives would. What harm is there in not executing people? Those amenable to labor reform should go and do labor reform, so that rubbish can be transformed in something useful. Besides, people's heads are not like leeks. When you cut them off, they will not grow again. If you cut off a head wrongly, there is no way of rectifying the mistake even if you want to. If government departments were to adopt a policy of no executions in their work of suppressing counter-revolutionaries, this still would not prevent us from taking counter-revolution seriously. Moreover it would ensure that we would not make mistakes, or if we did they could be corrected. This would calm many people. If we do not execute people, we must feed them. So we should give all counter-revolutionaries way out of their impasse. This will be helpful to the people's cause and to our image abroad. The suppression of counter-revolution still requires a long period of hard work. None of us may relax our efforts.

IJC sees no reason why Comrade Mao’s  observation cannot apply today, even when dealing with Amerikkkan counter-revolutionary “mASSes”.  These anti-communist academics always claim that Comrade Stalin’s call to “liquidate the kulaks as a class” was about democide.  Wrong.  Stalin was talking about liquidating CLASSES, not physical human beings as a matter of policy.  This is not to say violations of human rights and other excesses never occurred under proletarian watch, but the key to the goals of the communists is the abolition of classes not “Kill all the white people and then we’ll be free” or such simplistic vengeful nonsense, however deserving Amerikkkans might be. Naturally, it follows that some classes, namely the exploiter and oppressor classes, will disappear before the exploited and oppressed classes disappear in the course of losing their privileges in the socialist regime (the JDPEN) that precedes totally classless,  global communism.  It also follows that the role of revolutionary violence is an unpleasant, unfortunate necessity.  (With regards the new bourgeoisie that inevitably arises under any socialist regime, that class of sellouts will also disappear well before the proletariat and peasantry do, to be followed by the withering away of all class distinctions globally.)

The longer answer would be to go point by point through the original ‘Plan de San Diego’ applying the method used by Comrade Mao in MR8, as well as a contemporary Maoist-Third Worldist analysis on various points.  We will demonstrate that the original ‘Plan de San Diego’ is a document whose literal prescriptions (especially the no quarter policy) have largely passed their relevant time.  We will do this while keeping in mind that Amerikkkans are no less guilty today of benefiting from imperialist war and plunder that kills millions globally every year than in the decades surrounding 1915, when lynchings of exploited and oppressed peoples (Mexicanos, the First Nations, the Black Nation and the Asian Nations) were happening on a daily basis by Amerikkkan hands.  Add to this the birth of u.$. Imperialism (in the Leninist sense) with the occupation of the Philippines and Cuba after the $panish-Amerikkkan War.  Here are the original 15 points of ‘El Plan de San Diego’ grouped by relevant subject matter:

1. On the 20th day of February, 1915, at 2 o’clock in the morning, we will rise in arms against the Government and country of the united States and North America, on as all and all as one, proclaiming the liberty of the individuals of the black race and its independence and segregation of the States bordering on the Mexican nation, which are: Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and Upper California, of which States the Republic of Mexico was robbed in a most perfidious manner by North American imperialism.

Genuine anti-imperialists uphold the proclamation of this first point in the main.

2. In order to render the foregoing clause effective, the necessary army corps will be formed under the immediate command of military leaders named by the supreme revolutionary congress of San Diego, Texas, which shall have full power to designate a supreme chief who shall be at the head of said army. The banner which shall guide us in this enterprise shall be red, with a white diagonal fringe, and bearing the following inscription: “Equality and Independence,” and none of the subordinate leaders or subalterns shall use any other flag (except only the white for signals.) The aforesaid army shall be known by the name of “Liberating Army for Races and Peoples.”

3. Each one of the chiefs will do his utmost by whatever means possible, to get possession of the arms and funds of the cities which he has beforehand been designated to capture in order that our cause may be provided with resources to continue the fight with better success, the said leaders each being required to render an account of everything to his superiors, in order that the latter may dispose of it in the proper manner.

4. The leader who may take a city must immediately name and appoint municipal authorities, in order that they may preserve order and assist in every way possible the revolutionary movement. In case the capital of any State which we are endeavoring to liberate be captured, there will be named in the same manner superior municipal authorities for the same purpose.

9. All appointments and grades in our army which are exercised by subordinate officers (subalterns) shall be examined (recognized) by the superior officers. There shall likewise be recognized the grades of leaders of other comlplots which may not be connected with this, and who may wise to co-operate with us – also those who may affiliate with us later.

12. None of the leaders shall have the power to make terms with the enemy without first communicating with the superior officers of the army, bearing in mind that this is a war without quarter, nor shall any leader enroll in his ranks any stranger unless said stranger belongs to the Latin, the Negro, or the Japanese race.

13. It is understood that none of the members of this complit (or anyone who may come in later) shall upon the definite triumph of the cause which we defend, fail to recognize their superiors, nor shall they aid others who with bastard designs may endeavor to destroy what has been accomplished with such great work.

14. As soon as possible each local society (junta) shall nominate delegates, who shall meet at a time and place beforehand designated, for the purpose of nominating a permanent directorate of the revolutionary movement. At this meeting shall be determined and worked out in detail the power and duties of the permanent directorate, and this revolutionary plan may be revised or amended.

These points reflect key organizational strategy, something that will obviously have to be modified to what is appropriate in contemporary conditions.  Whatever forms of economic or armed struggle to a particular People’s War as well as organizational forms the Third World proletarian vanguards takes (whatever variations of democratic centralism, cell organizing, etc.) are their own duty to determine.  The only two things the Maoist-Third Worldists in the First World insist upon our Third World comrades is; a.) That the Third World proletariat be UNITED against the parasite First World, and b.)  That the Third World drop all illusions about economic “Western Progress” being the product of technology and bourgeois democracy, as well as a notion of a “proletariat” lying in wait in the First World, and the notorious “Theory of the Productive Forces” from which all these revisionist deviations from revolutionary theory have their root.

5. It is strictly forbidden to hold prisoners, either special prisoners (civilians) or soldiers; and the only time that should be spent in dealing with them is that which is absolutely necessary to demand funds (loans) of them; and whether these demands be successful or not, they shall be shot immediately, without any pretext.

6. Every stranger who shall be found armed and who cannot prove his right to carry arms, shall be summarily executed, regardless of race or nationality.

7. Every North American over 16 years of age shall be put to death, and only the aged men, the women, and children shall be respected. And on no account shall the traitors to our race be respected or spared.

As mentioned above, MR8 applies here.  “Heads are not leeks”, as Comrade Mao said.  “No quarter” is no longer applicable, either during an actual revolutionary GPW campaign or during JDPEN.  Following this, also no longer applicable are differentiations between Amerikkkan males of a certain age range and “the aged, the women” with the probable exception of the children.  EVERY Amerikkkan is going to have the chance to go to a certain required summer camp that never really ends (4), as all ages of majority and genders are have an “equal opportunity” to be parasites nowadays.  Comrade Serve the People’s teachings on the form of JDPEN in 2006 demonstrate the benefits of dispersing the First World parasite populations over the original ‘Plan de San Diego’s’ prescription.

8. The Apaches or Arizona, as well as the Indians (redskins) of the territory, shall be given every guarantee, and their lands which have been taken from them shall be returned to them, to the end that they may assist us in the cause which we defend.

10. The movement having gathered force, and once having possessed ourselves of the States above alluded to, we shall proclaim them an independent republic, later requesting, if it be thought expedient, annexation to Mexico without concerning ourselves at that time about the form of government which may control the destinies of the common mother country.

11. When we shall have obtained independence for the Negroes, we shall grant them a banner which they themselves shall be permitted to select, and we shall aid them in obtaining six States of the American Union, which States border upon those already mentioned, and they may from these six States from a republic, and they may therefore be independent.

15. It is understood among those who may follow this movement that we will carry as a singing voice the independence of the Negroes, placing obligations upon both races, and that on no account shall we accept aid, either moral or pecuniary, from the government of Mexico, and it need not consider itself under any obligations in this, our movement.

The response to these points in today’s context comes from the fountainhead of IJC’s JDPEN Programme, ‘Anti-Kolumbus Program for the Destruction of the White Nation’(5), issued by St. Patrick’s Battalion (SPB):

1. The White Nation (Amerika and Klanada) will be removed from all lands it occupies and abolished forever. The Dictatorship of the Proletariat of Exploited Nations will oversee the long term management of the imperialist nation populations.

2. Occupied land will be returned to the Mexican people. We support the national liberation, self-determination and socialist reunification for the Mexican people.

3. First Nations will have much of their historic land returned to them. We support their national liberation and self-determination.

4. Land will be given to the Black Nation, possibly in the Black Belt Lands as identified by the Comintern. We support national liberation and self-determination for the Black Nation.

5. National liberation and self-determination for all U$ colonies and neo-colonies.

6. Massive reparations from the imperialist nations to all peoples that they have exploited or oppressed.

The Third World global majority demanding justice be done to united $nakes’ internal parasite majority is not “the revenge line”, as crypto-Trotskyites of both the zombie and liberal variety assert.  By denying parasitism, the First Worldist fakes tell the Third World that it is WRONG to rebel!  Dispersing, reeducating, and extracting reparations from Amerikkkans are essential for the proletariat in overcoming all exploitation and oppression and realizing communism.  And now, with Maoism-Third Worldism, the Third World proletariat has the ideological tools necessary to give the trusty ole’ Jacobin guillotine a much needed break in the process of “de-Amerikkkanizing” the Amerikkkan sheeple.  Killing Amerikkkans ultimately isn’t the most decisive thing in People’s War… but resisting, defeating, and abolishing Amerikkka as a whole is.

How’s that for a 9/11 tribute?

Outline Updated

June 6, 2009

The JDPEN research project entry has been updated to reflect the rejection of a potential revisionist line in III., A., 3.

Also, we introduce  “D. Others glimpses of the JDPEN in history” with an exploration of  1. The Plan(s) of San Diego, 2. Mirza Sultan-Galiev and the proposed “Colonial International”,  3. Che Guevara’s “Many Vietnams” and Focoism.  “Where we go from here” is now moved to “E.”, which under “2. JDPEN being far more than ‘One Big Gulag’ ” contains the new bullets “a. Deportation of the First World Parasites tho the Third World for re-education” and “b. When does the reparations regime become a fetter the advance to communism under JDPEN?”.

NEW 6/12/2009:  III., A., 3. replaced as well as III., B., 1., c. being totally dropped.  These changes reflect what our research thus far indicates according to the Maoist-Third Worldist scientific method:  The problem with Soviet occupation was not that it was too mean, but that it was too nice to the German labor aristocracy.  That isn’t to say that there weren’t instances of anti-proletarian behavior amongst the Red Army at times, but to highlight it as some kind of fundamental flaw of the exploited’s exercise of dictatorship over the parasites tends to throw a blanket over the 27 MILLION Soviet peoples killed by Nazi Germany.  IJC has no use for bourgeois sensationalism clouding the issue here, thus the dropping of the whole entry.

These corrections and extra historical comparison help sharpen the political line of the Red Dawn draft programme.

El Alba Roja: El Nuevo Plan de San Diego

May 24, 2009

Ricardo and Enrique Flores Magon, Mexican revolutionaries and the inspiration of the original "Plan(s) of San Diego"

Ricardo and Enrique Flores Magon, Mexican revolutionaries and the inspiration of the original "Plan(s) of San Diego"

Red Dawn: The New Plan of San Diego is the working title of IJC’s Maoist-Third Worldist programme for the Joint Dictatorship of the Proletariat of the Exploited Nations (JDPEN) over u.$. imperialism, to be released in the coming weeks.  We will attempt to synthesize the original Plan(s) of San Diego (1915-1916) with the experience  of the Soviet occupation of Germany after World War II.  Imagine what could have been if Mexico had had the benefit of a Villa/Zapata led socialist state backing (assuming they were leaning proletarian) to the original Plan of San Diego.  Imagine what could have been if the Soviet Union kept on throwing its resources towards the exploited nations (via its own “Plan of San Diego” in Europe) and stopped trying to placate the former Nazi German labor aristocracy (and Europeans/Amerikans in general) in the post-Stalin era .   Imagine what could have been… and imagine what will be!

Therefore, let us think about what is to be done now!

The Soviet Occupation of Nazi Germany and the JDPEN

May 10, 2009

Here, following Soviet Victory Day, IJC puts forward an outline on the information on this unique experience in the history of class struggle as a potential building block for JDPEN.  We give: 1.) An overview of the history (1945-1953 mostly, with a post-script), 2.) an analysis of what worked and what went wrong, 3.) and a Maoist-Third Worldist synthesis of this history with the programme of the JDPEN (see Lin Biao’s LLVPW!).  We will also be reviewing The Russians in Germany by bourgeois historian Norman Naimark.

[Formatting/indentation fixed, test version link now here].

We will be releasing the body of this research and the book review shortly.  Any others sources comrades might find helpful to this project, please contact us with that info.

Soviet Victory Day

May 9, 2009

Le drapeau de la victoire

Tonight, 64 years ago this evening, the Red Flag was hoisted over the Reichstag, signifying the first victorious proletarian invasion of imperialism.

The Internationalist Jacobin Club salutes the enormous sacrifices made by the Soviet People and the United Front against Fascism for the world’s oppressed.  We at IJC have alot to live up to in this example.

Our first official heralding statement is hours away…
