ABU AL-BARAA: HONOR AND TRIBUTE TO A WORKING CLASS AND INTERNATIONALIST SIBLING
SYMBOL OF THE INCLAUDICABLE STRUGGLE UNDER THE BANNERS OF THE IV INTERNATIONAL
ABU AL-BARAA, a young worker combatant for the World Socialist Revolution, together with his father and at the head of a handful of brave Young Revolutionaries, organized in the Leon Sedov Brigade, carrying very high the flags of the Fourth International; they put in the hands of the Syrian masses, the Program for the Socialist Revolution, which is made flesh in the Youth, the Working Class and the oppressed of the five continents in fierce struggles against their executioners, the oppressive regimes and governments, lackeys of U.S. imperialism and partners in their businesses, which in order to maintain and increase their privileges and profits, lead human society to more misery, over-exploitation, starvation and many other hardships that threaten the very survival of the human species.
ABU AL-BARAA, with his action, his example and his dedication, is the seed that germinates every day in Palestine, in the fierce battles of children, adolescents and young workers against the invading Israeli Zionist army. It is the war cry heard and multiplied by the exploited in Chile, Greece and Colombia. It is the slogan of war to the death against the decrepit capitalist system that resounds with a vibrant echo in the streets and barricades in South Africa, in Myanmar, Lebanon and Iran. It is the red flag that flies airly and gracefully in the skies of Bolivia, Mexico, Cuba, Haiti, shaken by the clamor and voices of workers, indigenous people, peasants, the unemployed, who rise in unison against hunger, or demanding freedom for the fighters imprisoned and tortured by the henchmen of the native bourgeoisies.
Its courageous example is the Book of Life, whose rich pages are written daily with the sweat, blood and struggles of the thousands of migrants expelled from their lands by misery, super-exploitation and counterrevolutionary wars, that in their just search for a future and a dignified life, are drown in their hundreds in rivers and oceans, or die scorched in inhospitable deserts.
ABU AL-BARAA and so many other Syrian fighters and martyrs and their twins from the whole world are the maximum expression of that New Generation of Young Revolutionaries who neither shun nor yield to the combat, much less align themselves with the conciliators and traitors that from within inflict the criminal stab at every Revolution that raises up and are the miserable agents of its defeats. Corrupt capitalism owes its survival to these: its devoted and hurried nurses.
ABU AL-BARAA and other Revolutionaries assumed their commitment to its last consequences with loyalty and courage, and with their Militancy in an Internationalist Socialist Collective, the FLTI assimilated the lessons and teachings of the Masters of Marxism, signed daily by the working masses in their battles, the struggle between the Revolution and the counterrevolution.
For imperialism and all the executioners of the oppressed Peoples, the rise of Revolutionary Trotskyism meant that the prairie could catch fire with the fire in the hands of the Leon Sedov Brigade and therefore its flames had to be quelled. The assassination of the fighters occupied the fearful agenda of the hitman Putin, the European imperialist Powers and Wall Street. The sentence of the Libyan Militias in 2011-2012 was recorded in their ears: "TODAY LIBYA, TOMORROW WALL STREET"
For the same reason, their murder was urgent, and they achieved it in a vile and cowardly way; but sooner or later the masses will know how to pay the bill, nothing will go unpunished.
For this reason, the FLTI said at the time: "Today the FLTI say goodbye to one of their young and most brilliant leaders; one of their most valuable revolutionaries. We Trotskyists will water the battlefield with our blood. Millions of us will emerge from those fights who will lead the ideas for which Abu Al Baraa gave his life, to victory. The reformists live the peace of the cemeteries of the world working class in their parliamentary seats or in the upper echelons of the labor aristocracy."
