Syria - December 6, 2024
Syria: the occupation regime collapses and the fascist government of Al Assad is in open crisis...
The second Syrian revolution must rise...
Long live the revolution!
Homs, Daraa, Hama, Swayda fall...
The fascist dictatorship of Assad is collapsing, and with it the entire regime of the protectorate of a divided and occupied Syria is threatening to collapse, after the crushing of a huge revolution that shook the Middle East in 2011-2016-2020.
Al Assad's army of soldiers forcibly recruited in recent years are turning to rebellion. Many of them are sent home in peace by the militiamen. The cowardly officers ran away.
Israel seals the borders of the GOLAN HEIGHTS WHICH AL ASSAD AND PUTIN WERE GUARDING WHILE IT WAS MASSACRING IN GAZA.
The US, which controls the north of divided and looted Syria, puts its private guards and the YPG of the Kurdish bourgeoisie on alert to guard its oil wells. This bourgeoisie thus betrays the heroic Kurdish people of Syria by leading them into a pact with Al Assad and the Yankees, just as Kurdish Stalinism does in Turkey by signing dozens of surrender pacts with Erdogan, while its prisoners rot in jail.
Turkey, in an agreement with Russia, monitors HTS and the ESL so that they guarantee to reach Damascus first and take over all the cities before they rise up and the armed masses enter the second revolution.
The “brave” Putin has escaped… he declares that he will intervene only in case it can form a “transitional government” in the protectorate of occupied Syria.
The Sunni bourgeoisie is in a race to control the masses, which are on their feet. The children of those killed in the 2011 revolution are at the forefront of the fight, freeing all political prisoners. It will no longer be easy to regain control of those who today fight for bread and for a free Syria.
HTS, whose staff moved to Aleppo, claims that it wants to form a “government of national salvation.”
In whose name?
Hundreds of thousands of hungry people are already taking to the streets. They are taking the fight into their own hands and surrounding the children of the people in every city taken.
Those at the top are in crisis. In their disputes they are opening breaches. They are fighting for a teetering power and those at the bottom are returning to the streets.
HUNGER... MILLIONS OF INDIGENTS, MILLIONS IN EXILE IN JORDAN, TURKEY, LEBANON want to regain their land, homes and jobs...
Meanwhile, a neo-Stalinist left, servant of the cowardly Arab bourgeoisies and Zionism, wants to hide the tragedy of millions of exploited Syrians. A new generation of workers is watching these events. The traitors to the Syrian revolution of yesterday are again throwing sand in the eyes of the masses of the world so that they cannot distinguish between their allies and their enemies.
On the other hand, the clerics of Iran, while supporting the fascist Al Assad for years, announced the “mother of all battles” against Israel... but nothing. Just a couple of missiles to then negotiate with the Yankees the surrender of Lebanon and go on encircling Gaza... That is the truth.
A trashy left wants to pass off Iran and Russia as “anti-imperialist”. You have to be a lackey of the Yankees' proxies who do their dirty work!
The Yemeni nation in arms attacking supplies to the Zionist army, and the scoundrel Putin and the Russian oligarchy that the Stalinist groveling left supports so much, silencing that their leader is one of the partners of Zionism that supplies it with oil. Why do they keep quiet? Come on, stop lying, you miserable people.
From Assad and Putin's Syria, the Palestinian resistance is not organized... It is only forced to surrender or sign spurious "peace" pacts.
The second Syrian revolution is trying to get back on its feet.
Once again, the time has come when those who call themselves its leaders and allies want to hand it over from within to save the rotten colonial regime that starves the people and plunders the nation, by building a national unity government.
Homs falls... the capital of the revolution. Now, to Damascus!
In every village, city and province, the more than 100,000 political prisoners accused of being “terrorists” by imperialism and its bigot Islamophobic leftist parrots, must be released…
In every village, city and province, committees of rank-and-file soldiers, militiamen, peasants and workers must be set up who will not delegate their struggle and their freedom to anyone.
We must find the bread... it is in Assad's banks that launder the theft of oil from the imperialist oil companies in Syria and throughout the Middle East. It is in the profits of the warlords and merchants, in the businessmen who have made their fortunes in all, but precisely in all the regions into which Syria has been divided, while everyone at the borders, in Lebanon, in Turkey, in Jordan, used Syrian refugee workers as slave labor. The bread will be obtained with the expropriation and nationalization without compensation and immediately of all the assets, companies, banks, lands and oil companies of all those who currently occupy Syria.
There is the bread, the land and the homes that have been stolen from the people.
The Syrian socialists claim that those who do not start by recognizing the inalienable right of the masses to rise up against all the occupying forces and their colonial regime and fascist government are not fighting for the victory of the Syrian revolution. Those who do not recognize this basic, revolutionary democratic, and anti-imperialist right of the masses are vile traitors. And they are the same ones who yesterday offered condolences to Zionism when the Palestinian resistance was defending itself against the attacks of the fascist settlers. Syrian socialists say that only a revolutionary worker and peasant Syria will save its people and be a bastion of the heroic Palestinian resistance, now surrendered and surrounded in Gaza by the cowardly and cynical Arab bourgeoisies at the peace of the graveyards in conferences of China today in Cairo.
Only a Syrian worker and peasant republic, uniting the working class of the nation, will be able to give the Kurdish people the right to self-determination, since its first task will be to expel the Yankees and all their military bases that are in northern Syria controlling the Kurdish region.
The time has come to clear away so many slanders, lies and infamies against the martyred Syrian masses... It is time...
It is time to return to Damascus... There is Yarmouk, the Palestinian camp that was massacred by Al Assad in 2013. There the operating table must be set up to support, arm and fight alongside the Palestinian resistance.
The Syrian socialists gave their lives and their freedom in these years in a heroic revolution. Neither in yesterday's offensive nor in the heroic resistance of these years, they never stopped fighting. They fight for an independent proletarian strategy in the civil war. Some of them, like Abu Al Baraa, fell on the front line of the fight against Al Assad and others are still in HTS prisons. The left that proclaims itself socialist internationally has kept a cynical silence on these battles of the consistent internationalist left of Syria. This silence puts a dirty stain on their foreheads for which the history of class struggle will sooner rather than later do justice.
The anti-Marxist imbeciles of the so-called “New Left”, declared revisionists, ensconced in parliamentary seats and in bourgeois regimes, like to talk and write about war, but they are always far away… very far away from civil war and class war.
They talk about socialism or communism “of the future”… but in the meantime, as we see in Syria, they support Al Assad and Putin massacring and martyring Syrian workers, and they also support the Kurdish PKK, disciplined under the orders of the Yankees in northern Syria. This is the “anti-imperialist struggle” that the Stalinists and renegades of Trotskyism preach internationally.
They want to wage, as in this case in Syria, a “fight against imperialism” with the masses subjected to their executioners, with hundreds of thousands in prisons and millions in chronic hunger. Let them do this and suffer!
In these hours the masses are already taking to the streets in large sectors of Syria. In the civil war that has begun, the revolution must raise its head.
Long live the working class of Syria, the oppressed and poor peasants of this martyred nation!
No support or submission of the exploited to the cowardly and murderous Arab bourgeoisies! They only administer and are junior partners of imperialism in the plundering of oil and the wealth of the entire region.
From Gaza to Damascus and throughout the Middle East, one same INTIFADA, one same revolution...
For a Federation of workers' and peasants' Republics throughout the Maghreb and the Middle East.
