52 Anniversary of İbrahim Kaypakkaya's Martyrdom - info

 

‘We Remembered Kaypakkaya Once Again with Massive Enthusiasm’

Following the commemoration event for Ibrahim, the Night Organising Committee issued a statement thanking everyone who contributed.

15 May 2025

Following the commemoration event for Ibrahim Kaypakkaya held in Germany on 10 May, the Night Organising Committee issued a statement thanking everyone who contributed. The assessment, signed by the Central Commemoration Committee, was shared with the public.

‘In the 52nd In the Year of Immortality, we once again commemorated the polar star of our revolution, the communist leader Ibrahim Kaypakkaya, with mass enthusiasm.’ The statement emphasised that the mass and enthusiastic night event held in Germany on 10 May 2025 was successfully concluded, adding, ’Thanks to the collective efforts of hundreds of comrades, we would like to thank all our comrades, revolutionary friends, artists and writers who contributed to the efforts to commemorate all our immortal ones in the person of Kaypakkaya, which were the product of months of labour, and who participated and stood in revolutionary solidarity.’

In the statement, which also touched on developments around the world during the night's activities, it was said: ‘The historical process in which we commemorate our communist leader Kaypakkaya and all our immortal comrades is one in which the imperialist-capitalist world reaction, which is increasing its oppression of the oppressed and turning the world into a sea of blood, on the one hand, intensifies the oppression of the oppressed, turns the world into a sea of blood, and seeks to overcome its structural crisis through a new war of division, thereby exposing the peoples of the world to the danger of a new imperialist massacre; on the other hand, the conditions in which the AKP-MHP fascist bloc, an extension of imperialist-capitalist world reaction in our region, continues its bloody rule through unrestrained oppression of the working people and imposes a comprehensive liquidation.

The Committee noted that during the joint activities, the political content of the work was approached as a common struggle against imperialist wars and occupations and all reactionary regimes. It stated that the campaign began with the LLL March held in Berlin on 12 January 2025, followed by panels in eight different regions of Europe, and that on 1 May, joint mass processions were formed in many cities across Europe.

The statement continued: ‘The final phase of our campaign, which lasted approximately four months, reached its peak with the night event held on 10 May 2025. Approximately three thousand people from all over Europe, who arrived by buses and private vehicles, once again experienced the justified enthusiasm of commemorating our comrade İbrahim Kaypakkaya and all those we have lost in his person; the slogans chanted by the crowd as one heart, claiming Kaypakkaya and our immortal comrades, added a revolutionary excitement to our night.’

The committee's statement also expressed gratitude to international Maoist and revolutionary organisations that conveyed their revolutionary solidarity through written and visual messages:

"On this basis, the joint message from the MKP and TKP-ML guerrillas, who sent video messages from the front lines of the hot war, adding revolutionary enthusiasm to our night; the video messages from HDBH, KDBH, and the International Armenian Battalion; and the international Maoist and revolutionary organisations that participated in the event, sent greetings, or conveyed their feelings of revolutionary solidarity through written and visual messages: the National Democratic Front of the Philippines, the Nepal Revolutionary Communist Party, the French Communist Unity Bureau, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Afghanistan (Maoist), PBSP/Bangladesh, (new) Italian Communist Party Central Committee, Ural Maoists Union (Russia), Revolutionary Construction (Switzerland), and MLPD; and revolutionary friendly organisations in our region: HDBH/Europe, TİKB, MLKP/Europe Committee, DKP (B), Revolutionary Communists Party (Unity)/Europe Committee, TKİP/Overseas Organisation as the Commemoration Organising Committee, and greet them with revolutionary enthusiasm."

The statement concludes as follows: ’Imperialist world reaction, centred on hegemonic conflicts, is driving humanity towards disaster through heavy exploitation, imperialist wars and the destruction of nature. In this historical process, the economic, political, and hegemonic crisis of world reaction is summed up in unbridled exploitation, occupation, annexation, and the plunder of nature. Undoubtedly, this situation imposes great responsibilities on communist and revolutionary forces. Making communism a concrete threat to imperialist-capitalist world reaction is possible only through the oppressed becoming the subject of their own struggles. The process is expanding the objective possibilities of revolution in every way. The revolutionary dynamic that will emerge from these objective possibilities will be the work of us, the successors who are united in struggle along the path of Kaypakkaya.

As the successors of Comrade Kaypakkaya, we once again declare with revolutionary enthusiasm that we will realise the dream of freedom for the oppressed and exploited peoples, the downtrodden nations and beliefs, based on the revolution; and that we will further expand the common struggle for independence, socialism and communism.

Dear comrades,

We address our proletarian, red and internationalist salute to your meeting.

Turkey is one of the main countries of the world, an important node of the three contradictions -the one between bourgeoisie and proletariat, that between imperialism and oppressed peoples and the inter-imperialist contradiction- that characterize the capitalist mode of production in the era of imperialism and proletarian revolution defined by Lenin.

Great hopes of the world proletarian revolution are entrusted to the revolutionary struggle of the proletariat and the people’s masses of Turkey.

It means that great hopes are entrusted today to the role of a marxist-leninist-maoist Party, as proletarian vanguard and central nucleus of the struggle of all the people of Turkey and Northern Kurdistan.

The historical function of the Communist Party in Turkey in the current era had a new beginning with the birth of the TKP/ML, led by comrade Ibrahim Kaypakkaya, in 1972, in the wake of the struggle against modern revisionism and the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, which is still a beacon of the Turkish and international communist movement.

Eternal glory to Ibrahim Kaypakkaya!

Nakba Resistance Until Liberation: The Unfinished Return

 

Statement of the TKP-ML International Bureau on the Commemoration of the Nakba

Resistance Until Liberation: The Unfinished Return

On the 78th anniversary of the Nakba, we stand with Palestinians everywhere to shatter the silence that hides ongoing dispossession. In May 1948, more than seven hundred thousand lives were uprooted so that colonial powers could plant their flags in the Middle East. The violence of 1948 did not end with history; it echoes today in Gaza’s relentless blockade, where families endure chronic shortages of food, water, fuel, and medicine; in the West Bank, where airstrikes and sniper fire stalk children playing in the streets; and in Jenin and other refugee camps, where bulldozers raze homes by night and soldiers carry out mass arrests at dawn.

We fully expose, in all its brutality, the settler-colonial Zionist ideology that legitimizes the genocide against the Palestinian people. Imperialist states arm occupation forces, spin tales of “peace” and “stability,” and look away as bombs fall on refugee tents and entire neighborhoods are flattened. Their calculated silence is part of a broader strategy of redivision, an ominous prelude to a new imperialist world war in which Palestine is but one battlefield among many. Yet their plots only bind us more tightly together in solidarity.

Our solidarity is rooted in everyday acts: workers refusing to service weapons factories, students organizing divestment campaigns on campuses, and communities hosting Palestinian artists and speakers. We bring Palestinian voices into our unions, our neighborhoods, and our classrooms, offering spaces where their stories are heard, learned, and passed on. Through these actions we make clear that the right to return is not a distant hope but a shared responsibility and collective mission.

On the basys of joint declaration May day... We support a call for 'People's blockade to war and imperialism. No to armaments-Mass struggle for our rights!

proletari comunisti/CPmaoist italy

Joint declaration may day extracts..

.....All imperialist States and governments are increasing military spending beyond measure and explicitly say that we must prepare for war.

The imperialist powers US/NATO/EU are equipping themselves with increasingly modern and devastating armaments and plan to use of nuclear weapons; they are strengthening their armies, militarizing their territories, developing the war economy.

Russian imperialism and Chinese social-imperialism are on the one side the target of this offensive and on the other one are riding the crisis of USA/NATO/EU imperialism to prepare a new set up more favourable to them.

.... The costs of war and rearmament are unloaded on proletarians and people’s masses with heightening cost of living, unemployment, precariousness, cuts of social spending, attacks on the rights and struggles of proletarians and people’s masses. The capitalists intensify the exploitation and more and more turn the proletarians and the most exploited sections of them into modern slaves at the service of profit...

...

....While externally the imperialist states and governments prepare war, internally the tendency to modern fascism combined with the crisis of imperialism advances and the tendency to a world imperialist war finds today a reference point in the Trump presidency and the fraction of the ruling class of the imperialist bourgeoisie which came to power in the US, restristing and erasing the vestiges of bourgeois democracy itself, attacking democratic freedoms and filling prisons, establishing increasingly dictatorial forms of government, within which fascist parties and modern fascism advance, according to the characteristics of the different countries. Women's rights, freedom of thought are attacked, hatred is fomented, chauvinism and nationalism are strengthened to hit the people’s resistance, divide the proletariat and the masses, at the service of the domination of the ruling classes and their lackeys. Racism is intensified with attacks in all forms on immigrants, with deaths in the sea, concentration camps, slave exploitation, expulsions and deportations. The monopoly of old and new media is increasingly in the hands of technological oligarchies that make huge profits and more and more they seek to impose obscurantist culture in schools and universities...

 All over the world the proletarians and the people are rebelling and resisting against imperialism, fascism, the worsening of living and working conditions.

Inside the imperialist countries, workers carry out general strikes, as in Greece; they block ships that transport weapons of war, as in Italy, Greece etc., the youth take the streets against fascism and racism.

The new fascist-imperialist US presidency of Trump, with the Zionist operative arm Netanyahu, launched a plan of "final solution", of genocide and deportation of the Palestinian people. Against it, the heroic resistance of the Palestinian people develops, of their organizations that also with the action of October 7 have brought back to the center of the world attention the goal of a free Palestine, a Palestinian State "from the river to the sea". The struggle of the Palestinian people fuels the awakening of all the Arab masses for a liberation struggle from the Arab regimes accomplices of Zionism and in any case subservient to imperialism.....

 

People's blockade to war and imperialism.

No to armaments-Mass struggle for our rights!

The conditions for war preparation are formed by the imperialists on the planet and by the governments all over Europe. The conflict in Ukraine, apart from being the bloodiest since World War II, is also the most dangerous for global developments as it brings together the most acute intra-imperialist conflicts. With this unjust war between the USA-NATO and Russia at the centre, the conditions for the next World War are being prepared. But also the economic-trade war of tariffs not only does not resolve the intra-imperialist contradictions, but instead charges them and is used as a tool for the formation of imperialist camps.

That is why developments in the dizzying arms race are rapid:

• the USA are building a new gravity bomb that will be 24 times more powerful than the nuclear bomb used in Hiroshima.

• Russia proceeds with the production of a new aircraft carrier and satellite carrying nuclear weapons.

• China is building its fourth aircraft carrier and has successfully tested its new hydrogen bomb with terrifying thermal power and a deadly shockwave.

At the same time, the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people by the fascist state of Israel, under the guidance of the USA, shows that for the imperialists there can be no stop to the butchery and exploitation of the peoples, unless the latter stop them with their struggle.

In this context, the new ReArm Europe programme was announced in March by the EU leaders' summit. This programme provides for the provision of military equipment for Europe and Ukraine:

• 650 billion Euro from the increase in defence spending of EU Member States by 3.5% of GDP.

• 150 billion Euro will be provided through loans. That means loans from the European Investment Bank

The 800 billion Euros are to be paid by the workers and peoples of Europe with their sweat and their rights. They will come from the increase in taxation, the harsh cuts in wages and, as the European Commission stated, from the reserves of the workers' social security funds. The peoples' wages and pensions, the workers labor will be stolen to support the war industry and their unjust wars. They plan to squeeze the peoples and the working class dry and at the same time increase the profits of the war industry and present this as economic development. They have renamed this program Readiness 2030 and are doing “readiness exercises” with “72 hours” supplies to propagandize to the peoples of Europe that war, their slaughter, is inevitable!

In the face of these developments, workers and peoples must chart their own path. They should not pay for the armaments that will turn the youth and the working class into cannon fodder. They should not accept to be condemned to permanent poverty by the governments and the EU. They must denounce the war dangers in which the capital and imperialism involve them. Oppose the suppression of their freedoms and democratic rights that goes hand in hand with war preparations. They must refuse their alignment behind any imperialist power. Show resolute internationalist solidarity with the Palestinian people and denounce the unjust war in Ukraine. They must fight against NATO and the EU, these imperialist alliances that promote the interests of the few by oppressing the many.

The only answer to generalised war and imperialist exploitation is the PEOPLE'S FRONT against imperialism and war. To promote friendship, brotherhood and solidarity among peoples.

• Workers should not pay for their wars

• No sacrifice of our incomes and pensions for the slaughter of people.

• No to the new arms programmes. No to REArm /Readiness 2030

• The EU is not a union of peoples but a wolf-alliance of imperialists.

• US-NATO-EU-Russia out of Ukraine.

• Freedom to Palestine

We call on every militant collective, every worker, every young person, to participate and support the events and demonstrations organised with the above objectives between 30/5-15/6 in our countries.

Pakistan and India on the Precipice of War - People’s March - for debate

 (All the views represented in this slightly abridged statement do not necessarily represent those of People’s March. But giving its significance we are reproducing it here — Editor)

The threat of war is a stark reality. The British government has contacted British Airways in a bid to airlift hundreds of British citizens out of Pakistan and India as the two countries slide into a state of war. This is the largest evacuation organized by the British government since the Gulf War. Other governments are evacuating citizens as well. Both the governments of India and Pakistan are talking to each other from within their bunkers and staring down each other’s nuclear barrel. However, on the streets of Pakistan life goes on oblivious to the war clouds hanging over the sub-continent. If war breaks out, the common person in Pakistan will be caught totally off-guard. The ruling class is deliberately keeping the people uninformed and deceiving them with slogans of "Nationalism" and "Religion". The people of Pakistan and India deserve the truth about the character of this war.

The Role of Regional Nationalism

India and Pakistan are not nation states, they are multinational neo-colonial states. In both states the capitalists, feudals, and military oligarchs of the dominant nation oppress and exploit the smaller or economically less developed nations. These smaller or economically less developed nations periodically rise up to challenge the dominant nation within India and Pakistan. For example, in Pakistan the most prominent example is the struggle of the Bangaldeshi nationalists. There have also been struggles of the Baluch, Sindhi, Pathan, Saraiki and so called Mohajir nationalists. Not a single of these struggles is a proletarian struggle. The struggle is organised and led by the ruling group of that nation. Workers and peasants have joined this struggle only in so far as the national oppression from the dominant state has been extremely high. I refer to these struggles as regional nationalist movements. The choice of words might not be considered appropriate by those who accept the assumptions of their nationalist cause, they might feel that the term region belittles their struggle. I use the term regional only to differentiate between these struggles and the anti-colonial nationalist struggle that brought to the forefront the multinational states of Pakistan and India.

Although certain regional nationalist movements have played a progressive role (Bangladesh springs to mind) history has proved that these struggles have failed to solve the fundamental problems of the people: the slave like conditions of class oppression. Indeed, it cannot be any other way since nationalism as a philosophy and the national movement as a political force is purely and inevitably a product of the struggle of the local ruling class for monopoly control over the local market.

The state of India (dominated by the nations of north India) and Pakistan (dominated by the Punjab and industrial groups in Karachi) have engaged in a war of attrition for the last 54 years by financing and arming regional nationalist movements against each other.

La Lutte Antifasciste el la Lutte Pour la Palestine ne Peuvent être Réduites au Silence

LA LUTTE ANTIFASCISTE ET LA LUTTE POUR LA PALESTINE NE PEUVENT ÊTRE RÉDUITES AU SILENCE!

NOUS SOMMES AUX CÔTÉS DE LA JEUNE GARDE ET D’URGENCE PALESTINE!

Le ministre de l’Intérieur français, Bruno Retailleau, a annoncé le 29 avril l’ouverture d’une procédure de dissolution visant la Jeune Garde et Urgence Palestine. Nous refusons fermement ces mesures répressives à l’encontre d’organisations engagées dans la lutte antifasciste et affirmons notre pleine solidarité avec elles!

Les récentes attaques contre la Jeune Garde, ciblée par l’extrême droite, sont une manifestation claire de la montée du fascisme en France. De même, l’État français, en voulant étouffer la lutte palestinienne, cible les structures qui soutiennent la Palestine afin de renforcer ses relations avec l’État sioniste d’Israël.

La montée de l’extrême droite en France et dans de nombreux pays européens menace gravement les organisations qui mènent des combats antifascistes. Le fait que les États européens s’attaquent à ces mouvements plutôt que de lutter contre le fascisme est inacceptable.

Nous réaffirmons avec force :
Nous sommes aux côtés de la lutte antifasciste!
Nous sommes aux côtés du peuple palestinien!
Nous sommes en solidarité avec la Jeune Garde et Urgence Palestine!

Pas de place pour le fascisme!

why 

....Modi claim he will wipe out the people’s war, the revolutionary movement and the CPI(M) by march 2026... The International Committee to Support the People’s War In India (ICSPWI) calls all the Marxist-Leninist-Maoist communist parties and organizations, the revolutionary parties, the anti-imperialist forces, to meet the challenge launched by the Modi’s government with a one-year-long campaign from Avril 2025 to March 2026...

.... Trump/Modi should make clear to everyone the indissoluble link that exists between American imperialism and its servants and the Indian regime....

..... The Indian regime is one of most important supporter of Netanyahu and his genocidal campaign in Palestine. For this reason, ICSPWI calls to unite the international solidarity with the resistance of the Palestinian people to the international campaign against the Modi regime and Imperialism...

 ...To support the people’s war in India and the Communist Party of India (Maoist) is one of the fundamental tasks of the revolutionary, anti-fascist, anti-imperialist communist movements of the world....

..... For this reason, it is due to all of us to stop imperialism, Modi’s regime and their genocidal hand, as part of the global struggle against imperialism, that leads to wars, fascism, poverty and oppression of peoples

Two Lines Struggle em português um avanço da luta e o caminho para uma verdadeira Conferência Internacional Marxista-Leninista-Maoista

 

Tradução realizada pelos editores do documento “For the Unified International Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Conference” do PCm Italy, lançado na 4a edição da revista Two Line Struggle.

Hoje, para chegar a uma verdadeira Conferência Internacional Unificada Marxista-Leninista-Maoísta (CIU), é necessário unir-se abertamente contra o revisionismo representado pelas organizações que se dizem “comunistas”, mas são velhas e novas formas de partidos revisionistas, nascidos da grande cisão no MCI dos anos 60, na qual se definiram dois campos, o do revisionismo krushcheviano, e do ML de Mao Tse Tung, que ao longo dos anos se tornou o marxismo-leninismo-maoísmo.

No nosso campo, no entanto, hoje, deve combater o espírito do fracionismo, organizado na Liga Comunista Internacional (LCI), que em nome de um “principalmente maoismo” identificado substancialmente com “aportes de valor universal do Presidente Gonzalo”, dividiu o movimento comunista MLM e rompeu o caminho e o curso necessário para chegar a uma verdadeira CIU.

Portanto, é na crítica, na luta com esta fração que o caminho da unidade deve ser restabelecido.

No centro da nova CIU só podem estar os Partidos Comunistas que dirigem e conduzem a guerra popular prolongada; sem a presença e o papel desses Partidos é impossível na fase atual construir uma Conferência unificada e atingir um nível de unidade nela que permita a reconstrução efetiva de uma organização internacional, como o Movimento Revolucionário Internacionalista (RIM) tem sido por 20 anos.

É claro que é necessário fazer um balanço compartilhado dos esplendores e limites do RIM, para que esta organização possa estar um passo à frente.

O fracionismo do “principalmente maoismo”, em nome do maoismo, por outro lado, trabalha pelo apagamento liquidacionista da história do MRI e por dar um passo pra trás, que longe de superar a divisão e a fragmentação, cristaliza e alimenta.

India/Pakistan war - note of CP maoist Italy - International Commission - for debate

 

The military aggression of India's fascist Hindutva regime of Modi against Pakistan of the reactionary Islamist regime leaves dozens of dead on the ground, only the People's War of the oppressed classes in both countries can put an end to the barbaric clash of civilizations

The military clash between India and Pakistan took place in a context in which the inter-imperialist contradictions are sharpening and in particular between the USA on the one hand and China and Russia on the other and secondarily between all the imperialist powers in which each tries to gain room on the world market according to its own aspirations and potential.

South Asia and the Indo-Pacific area are a powder keg ready to explode.

It is therefore under these conditions that the decades-long dormant conflict between the two nuclear states has exploded with mutual aerial bombardments and artillery shells on the border, risking becoming a deployed war between two states that rise to become regional powers with the same aspirations at the expense of their neighbours.

The Indo-Pakistani conflict of 07-10 May is part of the dynamic well described by the Joint Declaration of May 1 of the MLM parties and organizations in which it was stated that: "reactionary regimes [...] aspire to become and convert as gendarmes in their areas within the imperialist system, from Turkey, to India, to Brazil, etc.".

Modi's Hindutva regime (nationalism/fascism that affirms the supremacy of Hinduism and elevates it to a state ideology) in particular, intoxicated by recent economic and demographic macro-indicators, and being the main bulwark of Yankee imperialism in South Asia in an anti-Chinese function, aims to expand territorially to the detriment of Nepal and Bhutan, in competition with China in the disputed border areas, and above all, it continues an aggressive colonization and Hinduistification of occupied Kashmir, aspiring to occupy the rest of this oppressed country occupied by Pakistan to the point of strategically eliminating the existence of Pakistan itself.

Modi's India, financed by Yankee imperialism, is arming itself and developing its heavy and war industry, becoming more and more a threat to peace in South Asia and in the world, moreover its strategic alliance with the Zionist State of Israel negatively affects the aspirations of the Palestinian people and accentuates reactionary tendencies internally, from pogroms and genocide to the detriment of peoples and religious confessions in India who do not accept the Hindutva ideology and the desecularization of the Indian state implemented by Modi's BJP.

In fact, Modi's Hindutva regime continues an internal war against its own people in the Bastar region (Chhattisgarh federal state) under the name of Operation Kagaar in which about 25 thousand paramilitaries and soldiers are employed with the use of drones, helicopters and armoured vehicles. This military operation has the declared objective of eliminating the CPI (Maoist) which conducts the People's War supported by large sectors of the people, peasants, Adivasis (tribal populations), for this reason Operation Kagar has the objective of eliminating this mass base, hence its nature of mass extermination.

India – CASR Strongly Condemns Arresting of Kashmiri Journalists

 from Campaign Against State Repression (CASR).

CASR STRONGLY CONDEMNS THE ARRESTING OF KASHMIRI JOURNALIST HILAL MIR AND REJAZ M SHEEBA SYDEEK IN THE NAME OF NATIONAL SECURITY

The Indian state has once again brazenly revealed its disregard for freedom of press and democratic rights by arresting Kashmiri journalist Hilal Mir and independent journalist Rejaz Sydeek. This was on the basis of their social media posts where they had condemned the violence by the Indian state in Jammu and Kashmir as well the escalation of the war-like situation between India and Pakistan.

Rejaz is a journalist and an activist based in Kerala who has reported on caste issues, communal violence against the minority community and violations of human rights. He was continuously harassed by the Indian state while trying to cover the issues of bonded labourers in the plantation sector of the Malnad region of Karnataka. Rejaz has been threatened several times and tagged as an Urban Naxal while he was covering these issues. Multiple FIRs have been filed against him, including one for organising a protest against the violence unleashed by the Indian state against Kashmiri people. Rejaz has covered burning issues like the case of political prisoners and has participated in several protests against state violence. He, as an activist, has also organised protests against the encounter killings of Maoists in Kerala and other states. Ironically, Rejaz was arrested when he was travelling back home to Kerala from Delhi after addressing a Campaign Against State Repression (CASR) press conference on World Press Freedom Day in solidarity with all incarcerated journalists in India.

Overwhelming Majority – Norway’s Largest Trade Union Votes for Boycott of Israel

The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions, the country’s largest labor federation, has voted in favor of a comprehensive boycott of Israel. (Design: Palestine Chronicle)

By Palestine Chronicle Staff  

The decision was passed with an overwhelming 88 percent majority during the labor federation’s national congress.

The Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions (LO), the country’s largest labor federation, has voted in favor of a comprehensive boycott of Israel, including a ban on trade and investment with Israeli companies.

The decision was passed with an overwhelming 88 percent majority during LO’s national congress, held in the Norwegian capital, Oslo, from May 8 to 9, the official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.

The Palestine Committee of Norway also announced the move on its Instagram page, saying the LO “will introduce an economic boycott of Israel, with 240 votes for economic boycott, and 69 votes against.”

It said the resolution “means that LO now requires that the State Pension Fund abroad, Norwegian companies and financial institutions withdraw from companies that contribute to the Israeli occupation.”

“The resolution shows strong support among LO’s one million members to introduce boycott, divestment and sanctions,” it added.

Hamas Welcomes Decision

Palestinian resistance factions, including Hamas, welcomed the move by labor federation.

In a statement, Hamas said it “highly values the decision by the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions to boycott the zionist occupation and ban trade and investment with its companies.”

The movement said it considers the move “a courageous step that aligns with truth and justice and a victory for the rights of the Palestinian people.”

“Hamas calls on labor and trade unions worldwide to emulate this ethical stance and isolate the fascist entity and expose its crimes against humanity,” the statement added.

The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) as well as the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) also welcomed the decision and urged labor unions to escalate the boycott

Palestine : L’Autorité Palestinienne annule le versement d’allocations à 1612 prisonniers palestiniens

L’Autorité Palestinienne (AP) a annulé le versement des allocations financières à 1 612 prisonniers palestiniens, libérés ou à leurs familles. L’annulation de ces versements, qui auraient dû être perçus le 11 mai, est une nouvelle attaque contre le mouvement des prisonniers palestiniens organisée par l’occupation israélienne et ses collaborateurs. Cela fait suite à la publication d’un décret le 11 février dernier par l’AP visant à annuler le versement des allocations financières aux familles des prisonniers, martyrs et blessés palestiniens, prévu par la loi sur les prisonniers. Ce décret a également transféré la base de données, les fonds et la responsabilité du soutien aux familles des martyrs et des prisonniers du ministère du Développement social et de la Commission des affaires des prisonniers à la Fondation Tamkeen, une ONG dirigée par Ahmad Majdalani qui est un dirigeant de l’AP qui développe des positions contre la résistance palestinienne et de normalisation avec Israël.

France - 15 mai, Paris, Ménilmontant : commémorons la Nakba et libérons Georges Abdallah !

Rassemblement jeudi 15 mai, de 18h30 à 20 h, place Jean-Ferrat,

à la sortie du métro Ménilmontant (L2)

Les Palestiniens dans leur lutte de libération nationale – parce qu’ils ont été et restent les fers de lance du combat – paient au quotidien le prix fort de leur engagement.

Cela a été le cas le 15 mai 1948, en ce jour de la Nakba dont Georges Abdallah dit dans une de ses déclarations :

« Elle est toujours là, une blessure béante… une blessure toujours saignante… tout un peuple y est lié. Elle est partout, elle est dans tout. Elle est les camps des réfugiés et les ruelles de la misère et les massacres et la terreur et l’humiliation à tout moment. Elle est les vieux et les moins vieux attendant toute une vie l’heure du retour, gardant en main avec tendresse de vieilles clés qu’on se passe de père en fils jusqu’à nos jours… Elle est le crime qu’on reproduit devant les yeux de tout le monde. Les impérialistes de tout bord y ont participé et continuent à cautionner, d’une manière ou d’une autre, la spoliation et la destruction de tout un peuple… Comme vous le voyez, chers camarades, la Nakba, loin d’être un moment douloureux d’un passé lointain qu’on cherche à commémorer par respect aux ancêtres, est le vécu quotidien de tout un peuple. De ses entrailles surgissent toujours de longs cortèges de fedayins et les enfants de l’Intifada. Elle est la Palestine de tous les jours ».

Cette « Palestine de tous les jours » est bien celle qui affronte à chaque heure l’entité sioniste et son sinistre plan d’écrasement du peuple palestinien et de liquidation de sa cause juste et légitime de libération nationale, par cette entreprise – non pas seulement d’apartheid – mais bien de colonisation de peuplement et de génocide qui vise à vider la terre de Palestine de son peuple.

La Nakba a été un des terribles actes de cette mise à mort consubstantielle au système colonial, mais elle reste aussi le marqueur, depuis ces 77 ans révolus, de l’extraordinaire ténacité du peuple palestinien et de sa résistance de longue haleine pour contrer et combattre l’occupant sioniste partout où il se trouve, jusqu’au coeur même d’Al Qods.

La Palestine est toujours là, aussi vivante que résistante. La détermination des masses populaires palestiniennes est plus que jamais inébranlable, en dépit de la terreur, de l’oppression et des atrocités de tout genre.

Elle oppose un démenti cinglant et historique, à travers ses indomptables lionceaux et son avant-garde combattante, jour après jour, mois après mois, années après années, à tous ces criminels de guerre réactionnaires sionistes qui depuis 1948 annoncent la fin proche de la révolution palestinienne sous prétexte que « les causes aussi vieillissent avec le temps et finissent à leur tour par mourir et disparaître ».

Le 15 mai prochain, soyons massivement présents à Paris, au métro Ménilmontant pour dénoncer le génocide en cours et réaffirmer une fois de plus notre soutien inconditionnel au peuple palestinien et à son héroïque résistance !

Palestine vivra ! Palestine vaincra ! Libérez Georges Abdallah !

Massive gathering and protest demonstration against unjust war waged against Pakistan - info

 

Massive gathering and protest demonstration by Lok Morcha Punjab and Inquilabi Kender Punjab against unjust war waged against Pakistan and using Pahalgam incident for communal political motives-

In Barnala, on May 8^th, Revolutionary organisations Lok Morcha Punjab and Inquilabi Kendra Punjab held a massive and impactful gathering and protest in Barnala, Punjab protesting the use of Pahalgam incident by the Modi government for triggering the fratricidal war waged against Pakistan in the garb of avenging injustice.

' Stop the unjust war waged against Pakistan in the name of revenge' and 'Stop using Pahalgam incident for communal political motives' were the slogans that reverberated in the gathering.

Lok Morcha leaders said that the BJP government, and the Sangh Parivar, has already hatched a conspiracy to grab political gains from this incident., reinforcing the Hindutva narrative, which has plagued the country in the past decades. They systematically recounted how historically the rights of Kashmiri people for self -determination was mercilessly suppressed, and how the Sangh Parivar hatched a conspiracy to wipe out the Kashmiri people from their homeland. A link was also forged between how US Imperialism aligned with the strategy of Hindutva nationalism.

They exposed how a current of malicious propaganda is being unleashed against the Muslim and Kashmiri communities to cement a spirit of collective vengeance to unleash a carnage against them. They gave examples of numerous attacks across the country targeting members of these communities, especially students.

Leaders elaborated how the purpose of igniting such incidents is to intensify communal polarization in the country, trigger Hindu nationalism, and garner votes through this strategy. They summed up how the killings would be used as a weapon to whip up anti-Pakistan frenzy, and add fuel to the hysteria of Hindutva politics.

They reminded participants how Jammu & Kashmir remained intensely militarized, with Modi government’s policy of suppressing democratic voices failing to achieve ither peace or security.

They explained how through the guise of fanatical nationalism triggered by this incident, attempts are being made to camouflage the Modi government’s subservience to imperialist forces. Also highlighted how despite widespread condemnation of the massacre by thousands of Kashmiris, divisive forces were banging every nail in the wall to communalise the issue. They recalled how in the wake of the tragedy, communal elements have tread path of provocative rhetoric to trigger a tense, war-like atmosphere.

The leaders demanded the immediate stoppage of attempts to plant communal divisions in society using this incident, guaranteed safety for Kashmiri and Muslim citizens across the country and an impartial investigation into the incident.
