Venezuela - February 18th, 2019
Trump is son the warpath against the nation. Like Lula and Kirchner, the native bourgeoisie of Madudo has surrendered.
The working class of Venezuela and the continent
must defeat US imperialism offensive
YANQUIS GO HOME!
Expropriation of US capital properties and bankers so the people can eat!
May the generals be disarmed and the people armed!
The road to defeat Trump and conquer the bread is that of the one of the Haitian masses:
Open the road to the Caracazo!
Trump wants to transform Venezuela into a direct colony. He has issued an ultimatum to the Bolivarian officer caste: if they do not depose Maduro, "they will not find refuge, no easy way out and they will lose everything". The order of imperialism is clear: open the transition to a government of the oligarchy, its direct agent.
The state of National Emergency in the United States decreed by Trump is an open threat of military intervention in Venezuela. The Yankee troops are already on the Colombian border. The war fleet sailed from Virginia. Humanitarian aid with the UN will be a pretext, as were the twin towers and Al-Qaeda for Bush in 2001.
It is a true declaration of war against the oppressed peoples of Latin America, preceded by threats, humiliations and acts of imperialist aggression against Venezuela, such as the financial blockade and the seizure of Venezuelan public assets in the United States.
Those who talk about resisting Trump with Maduro and the native bourgeoisie cheat the workers. The Bolivarians surrendered long ago.
Imperialism confiscates Venezuela’s funds and the Bolivarians, while there are billions of dollars invested by Chevron in the country or debt with Goldman Sachs, do not touch a single dollar to the Yankees and the oligarchy or stop paying the foreign debt. Guaidó, Trump’s "Horse of Troy", calls to throw Maduro and the oligarchy distributes leaflets in the barracks without any consequence.
There are neither weapons for the people to defend the nation nor appeals for the masses to take to the streets. Let alone expropriating the Yankees so the people can eat.
The native bourgeoisie cannot do otherwise. Maduro is hated by the people. He knows that if the starving workers come down from the hills there may be a new Caracazo. It would be the beginning of the workers' and popular revolution against all the exploiters, including the Bolivarian bourgeoisie.
That is why the Bolivarians act cowardly and complacent with the oligarchy and the Yankee capitals, and relentless and bloodthirsty with the people, to whom they pay U$6 salaries and dumps to eat. And if the last ones revolt for bread, they are shot to death with summary executions, disappearances and tortures in the best Peron’s Triple A style in the Argentina of the '70s!
Calling this "21st Century Socialism" is an infamous slander to socialism and the working class!
Venezuela is one battle of an imperialist offensive all along the line over Latin America. The next objectives are Nicaragua and fundamentally Cuba.
The Castros agreed with Obama and restored the right of inheritance and private property on the island. Transnationals are already in Cuba. Now Trump comes with Yankee properties’ titles - expropriated by revolution- to recover their businesses by separating the new Castroite bourgeoisie and even European capital.
Trump's war cry is: "Across the western hemisphere, socialism is dying (...)To those who would impose socialism on the U.S, we again deliver a very simple message: America will never be a socialist country."
The Yankees want a new Batista on the island and deliver a historic blow to the struggle for socialist revolution throughout the continent.
Castroism and the native bourgeoisies opened the door to Trump, strangulating the anti-imperialist struggle of the workers and peasants of the continent. Now Trump comes to complete this task.
If the working class and the exploited in Venezuela do not give a revolutionary anti-imperialist struggle like that of the Haitian masses, a real Caracazo, they will end up under the Yankee boot.
Trump and Guaidó’s "democracy" will be like the regime of occupation of Haiti under the UN and the sinister "Minusjusth" of the Latin American bourgeoisies to crush the hungry people. That will be the role of the Venezuelan Armed Forces under the direct command of the Pentagon. Those murderous officers of the Caracazo in 1989 are preparing to return under the imperialist command.
The murderous and cowardly Bolivarian officialdom, the heart of the bolibourgeoisie, only seeks to negotiate with imperialism an orderly transition to avoid a revolutionary crisis. If the masses do not break in, nothing will stop them from agreeing with Trump and surrendering him the nation.
The uprisings of hunger in Caracas districts in late January were savagely repressed because they are the ghost of the Caracazo.
But the officer caste knows that they cannot take the army to the streets because they know that the troops would be on the masses’ side, as happened in Syria in 2011, when the Assadist army disintegrated and the revolution began.
Today in the barracks each bourgeois gang counts the generals and battalions that it has in their favour. They are all terrified of the revolution.
What is coming in Venezuela and Latin America is not "more democracy", as a whole sector of the Latin American and world left dreams. The boot of US imperialism is coming.
Only the workers' and peasants' revolution can save Venezuela from Trump’s clutches. With the revolution we defeated the Yankees in Vietnam and Korea. The October Revolution crushed 14 imperialist armies. The people in arms defeated the Bay of Pigs invasion.
Years ago, the Castros and the Bolivarians said "socialism is over" and they raised the US flag again in Cuba. Enough with that scam of the Bolivarian revolution!
Out with the Yankees and the IMF from Latin America!
Open the road to the Caracazo! Let’s disarm the generals and conquer weapons for the people! To the barracks to get the soldiers!
For the people to eat: expropriation of the Yankees and the coup oligarchy, and the millionaire bolibourgeoisie that seeks to agree with them!
The US working class must revolt against the aggressions of its imperialist bourgeoisie against Venezuela and the peoples of Latin America, since Trump’s attack is also directed against the US proletariat itself. After bursting the Chicano and black workers, he will put the white workers to work as in the maquiladoras of northern Mexico.
What Wall Street and imperialist "democracy" gave to US workers is unemployment and misery. The bankers expropriated their homes. Over 43 million workers must live on state welfare. Let’s expropriate the parasites of the "1%" of Wall Street! May Occupy Wall Street movement return to surround the 8 blocks of the financial oligarchy! May the Black Panthers and the anti-war movement take to the streets again! The enemy is at home! Yes, the only way out for the US workers is the socialist revolution!
Unity of workers and peasants from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego to expropriate Yankee imperialism that declared war on us!
LATIN AMERICA WILL BE SOCIALIST OR IT WILL BE A WALL STREET COLONY
Jacobo García and Juan Gamarra for the LCT of Venezuela
