The present day US imperialism may be described as the highest stage of imperialism, a stage at which it holds its own by virtue of its financial strength, its control of technology and above all by its military might. It is also a stage at which it tends to stretch itself beyond its span of control, and unleashes the power of resistance of the oppressed nations and peoples throughout the world by its acts of wanton, ferocious and utterly callous exploitation, plunder and armed attacks on them.The recent formulation of US President George W Bush and his administration of the doctrine of pre-emptive attacks on any nation which dares to rise against their dictates, clearly demonstrates not only their drive for plundering other countries resources, but also the truth that imperialism today … [read more]

The upspring of the science gives us destructive technologies: nuclear weapons, gene modifying, manipulating of consciousness etc. The economic relations that had enabled the scientific progress return the slavery and bar the way to the independent development for three fourths of the humanity. The humanity is standing before the new world order like before an abyss. We can resign ourselves taking it as inevitable and natural. We can doubt the prognosis and restrict ourselves by everyday tasks. But there is another variant – we can look for a way to another future. But is there any other future for the society where money generates power and domination over countries and … [read more]

Thanks to the Iraqi resistance, the US Imperialism has been stopped in its tracks. We must extend our full support to the Iraqi resistance to ensure that the US Imperialism is defeated in Iraq. We must also fully stand behind our Palestinian brothers and sisters and their struggles for "right of return" to build a free Palestine, for the struggles against US occupation and … [read more]

Release on bail for Luz Perly deniedIn another blatant act of violation not only of the elementary human rights but also of the disregard of the very Colombian judiciary, the prosecutor of the Anti-terrorist Branch, Moisà©s Grimaldo Arteaga, denied the appeals of Luz Perly Cà³rdoba Mosquera and Juan de Jesús Gutià©rrez Ardila to be released after 120 of detention. According to the decision of a regular court the two popular leaders should be released on bail after 120 days. Thus the anti-terrorist office of the public prosecutor, which is known to be closely linked to DAS, the Colombian Intelligence Service, repeatedly shows its disrespect of the legal framework.Luz Perly alongside with other peasant leaders has been arrested on charge of insurgency.
