As we say goodbye to 2003 let us not forget about the thousands of working people in the third world and their family members who are murdered, tortured, beaten, imprisoned, raped, robbed, extorted, etc every day by yanqui imperialism’s goons.

Let us not be confused over what constitutes murder - that murder is murder regardless of whether or not those who take part in it do so because they want jobs, college and careers.

We will not support those who are willing to go wherever they are told to trample over the self-determination of the world’s working people, especially the working people of the third world.

We will not wave the blood-soaked flag of yanqui imperialism.

We will not support imperialism’s goons and we will have no sympathy for them if they get hurt or die in their brutal invasions and occupations.

Let us not forget about the children they bomb, take medicine from, starve and turn into orphans. Sympathy for imperialism’s goons washes the blood off their hands and cheapens the lives of their most vulnerable victims, the third world’s children.

The hell with the lives of the yanqui goons. What about the lives of the of Iraqi and Afghani children? What about the 30,000 children in the third world who die every day because of the economic policies that are being imposed by the imperialists and enforced by yanqui imperialism’s goons?

Let the year of the imperialist pigs pass and may the New Year be one in which imperialism, wherever it spreads its tentacles, is defeated.

But this is what they need. \r\n\r\nYanqui flag wavers ought to get out of the US and live in one of the "freemarket miracle" paradises that their government helped to creat - like present day Haiti, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Congo, Indonesia, Liberia, etc the list goes on and on. \r\n\r\nThey should go live in one of the great "democracies" the yanqui government embraces like Saudi Arabia, where they still stone people to death and cut people's hands off for petty theft.\r\n\r\nCuba and N Korea are far better places to live than the above, but unfortunately the yanqui government won't let US citizens live there unless they act as spies for yanqui imperialism.\r\n\r\nIf, for example, Cuba is such a terrible place to live why didn't Juan Gonzales (the father of young Elian, the Cuban boy the Maima Mafia tried to kidnap) go back to Cuba?\r\n\r\nHe could have stayed here and lived well off with all the book deals and movie offers. He chose to go back to Cuba because Cuba is a decent place to live - free health care, affordable housing, education, etc.\r\n\r\nYanqui flag wavers point to Cuba and N Korea as if the existence of these countries are the reason why the US should go around the world bombing everyone. \r\n\r\nThe mindset of the average yanqui flag waver is one of extreme ignorance. Their lack of a knowlede of history, especially the bloody history of their government together with their gullability, which is worse than the "Good Germans" of WWII makes them among the most numb and dumb people in the history of the world.\r\n\r\n","author":"goon trainer","parent_id":99192,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2004-01-03 01:14:00","modified":"2004-01-03 01:14:00","fileurl":""},{"id":99245,"heading":"to Bu$h Admirer","article":"You need to be house trained you stupid yanqui, now go back over to the republican party headquarters and finish licking out them toilets.","author":"dave chappel","parent_id":99192,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2004-01-03 07:29:07","modified":"2004-01-03 07:29:07","fileurl":""},{"id":99266,"heading":"dave chappel","article":"Why, exactly, are you sucking up to the commies?\r\n\r\nAre you a communist yourself?\r\n\r\nIf so, why in the world would you publicly humiliate yourself by admiting it?\r\n\r\nDon't you know communism and communism-lite, socialism, simply DO NOT work?
