Statement NAI on events in Venezuela: New Year’s Global Warning – In The Face of Barbarity (as the race to generalised conflict accelerates)

While imperialisms circus distracts our attention with its smoke and mirrors towards a potential attack on Iran to take advantage of the mass protests and resistance against it’s regime, it initiates a new front in its global war against our class by launching strikes in Venezuela, South America.

The fate of the dictator Maduro is of little interest to us, though the slaughter of our class, conscripted again to defend one faction’s oil interests against anothers is a dramatic increase in the threat of our annihilation.

With Iran, and now quite possibly Cuba which is dependent on Venezuelan oil in the sights of the US, all of strategic interest to China, the fault lines of global capitalist rivalry are now aflame in South America as well as Africa, Europe,the Middle East and elsewhere in Asia.

Our role as revolutionary internationalists must be to denounce each side of serving its respective capitalist state or factional masters and call for an escalation of the Class War at home to hinder the warfare state. We support for all those resisting the drive to generalised war! Solidarity with resistors, deserters and those actively sabotaging the front lines.

No return to capitalist peace. just a repressive pause and austerity assault preparing for the next bloody conflict!

For resistance and escalation on all fronts. Class War against imperialist war!
Working class resistance and solidarity against capitalist and state brutality!
