SYRIA - February 9th, 2020
Idlib does not give up and calls to break the walls and open the borders!
For its heroes and its martyrs ...
Despite the bombs dropped by more than 6 counterrevolutionary and occupation armies that invade Syria ...
Despite the sell out by HTS (ex Al Nusra) and the bourgeoisie of the FSA ...
Despite the traitors of the anti-labor and servile (to imperialism) left that accuses the "front line" of the people's militiamen of being "terrorists" ...
Despite the 600,000 killed and 15 million refugees ...
Despite fascism and genocide ...
In Idlib, the resistance does not give up!
The poor people is beginning to take food deposits that the businessmen of al-Assad and those of the Sunni bourgeoisie in Idlib monopolize. From there came the cry of "Let's break the walls and open the borders!" Already hundreds of thousands march to Turkey to reach Germany. If you kill us in Syria ... we go for you in Europe!
From Turkey and Europe, let's open the borders for the massacred Syrian people!
The workers of the world have been led to believe in the supposed anti-imperialist deeds of the fascist al-Assad and the butcher Putin. This is preached by union bureaucracies, Stalinist parties and renegades of Marxism.
But al-Assad and Putin are the ones who do the "dirty work" to Trump and the US imperialists who have already occupied all the oil wells and the cities of northern Syria.
Those who fight for bread and freedom are accused of being "terrorists" and their murderers are blessed as friends of the workers. These Judas of the treacherous lefts ought to pay for so much betrayal!
None to be surprised. As well as servants of capital, Stalinist parties and renegades of Trotskyism supported the fascist coup of Añez in Bolivia, as is the case of the POR. In Syria, this is what they do from the PTS of Argentina, which declares itself "neutral" in, as they say, "this war where two reactionary sides clash."
How much cynicism! In Syria the cities are devastated and the people are massacred by al-Assad, Putin, the Iranian theocracy and US imperialists ... and the masses are sold out under the counter by the Sunni bourgeoisie. Hanging on the coattails of the bourgeois states, this "left" current has already condemned the Syrian people to die at the hands of the Bashar dog.
You have to be blind or very servile, so as not to realize that the Sunni bourgeoisie and its army-parties are there to control the revolutionary masses where the state and the murderous government of al-Assad has lost control. The Sunni bourgeoisie surrenders, disarms the masses, they poison them every day a little ... but it is al-Assad who enters a city, slaughters everybody and does not leave even the dogs alive! Therefore, when this happens, the masses flee and only desert cities remain.
The challenge is none other than crushing the fascist al-Assad, breaking the control and leadership of the cowardly Sunni bourgeoisie, expropriating their businesses, as they are as exploitative employers as those in Damascus, so then, from class positions, to be able to dispute the military direction of the war.
Declaring themselves "neutral" in the face of the genocide by the state and the massacre by the fascists al-Assad and Putin supported by Trump, and accusing the militia children of the people as "terrorists", is an act of traitors ... And the traitors must be called traitors.
These people, who accuse the masses of "jihadists," use the beliefs of the poor people to justify supporting their executioners.
The PTS leadership in Argentina, with the excuse that Bolsonaro was "fascist", gave political support to the bourgeois Haddad and Lula in the last elections in Brazil ... Meanwhile, in Syria they refuse to push just a military unified action to stop the real fascist massacre that is what happens there. A lot of hollow chatter about Clausewitz, but they flee quickly from the civil war when it begins.
There will be no forgetting, no forgiveness.
The world labor movement, sooner rather than later, will get rid of the sellouts and slanderers that try to blacken the first line of the revolutions of the Maghreb and the Middle East that fights in Idlib.
The revolutionaries know in what trench to fight: with the Syrian workers and peasants against their executioners. In the middle there are already rivers of blood.
We can't be neutral! Let's break the walls in the borders!
Let's unite the Intifadas of Idlib, Iraq, Palestine and the one that faces the assassins of the Iranian theocracy!
This is the same fight against the imperialism that the masses of France, Hong Kong, Chile and Ecuador are fighting.
Let's win the streets around the world in solidarity with the Syrian masses! Let the borders collapse!
In Syria and Germany, in the Middle East and all of Europe ... the same working class, the same struggle!
Carlos Munzer
