Combat or a Slow Surrender?

Combat or a Slow Surrender?

Irregular guerrilla warfare is the liberating mode of the oppressed, and the gun is the loving companion of the freedom-fighter, in our era of fierce anti-imperialist class struggle. The universal truth of needing to place priority in military affairs in all circumstances, of the necessary and dominating role of revolutionary violence, in combating fascism, colonialism, imperialism, and Zionism, is the key lesson which must be brought to the attention of people of the United States. Sociology and modern history have confirmed clearly that non-violent "resistance" is idealistic and reactionary ideological poison. "Speaking truth to power" is useless without a military deterrent force.

We must stand in diametric opposition to the militarization of the enemy aggressors.

This is because the reactionary forces of this world, from Columbus to Sharon, from Hitler to Bush Jr., care nothing for poetic words, the intellectual masturbation of "progressive" sophistry, or about the pain and suffering they willingly inflict upon the wretched of this earth. By contrast, they do notice militant self-assertion.

When Socialist Korea, placing "the gun before the hammer and sickle", affirmed its inalienable right, as a nation of periphery resisting aggression, to develop and maintain weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear weapons, the enemy took notice. Only when the gun is correctly turned around ten times harder, will the scum of the White House present a conciliatory face of pseudo-diplomacy. The world's people cheer because they truly hate the US enemy, ringleader of world imperialism.

In a world of antagonistic contradictions, there is no middle ground. The way of army-based socialism and gun-based national-liberation, or final ruin and slavery? Peaceful coexistence or anti-imperialist and anti-Zionist class struggle? Combat or a slow surrender?

Not going to Neverland....

Maybe we can all hold hands and sing "we are the world" and all the bad people will go away. Yeah, that will work. What a nifty idea!! This way when you "turn the other cheek" you won't see the sword cutting your head off!! Oh HAPPY DAY!!

What benefit?

John, you're very good but what benefit if both players pull out the gun and start blasting away?

You say "We must stand in diametric opposition to the militarization of the enemy aggressors." But taking up arms is not in diametric opposition, it is the same as, isn't it?

But somebody will rule in the end and the ones you're recommending are they any better than what we have now?

Where are you coming from that everyting is placed at the furthermost extremes?

I don't know, you talk very well, very knowledgeable but ...

Do you have some more things I can read? This is all pretty new to me and like blow your socks off but wow aggressive
