From the WSWS site you found M~~ If I exercised my right of free speech right now, My Mom would have washed my mouth out with soap, and her image is still in front of me with the Lifeboy soap, so I won't, and 2) FL would for sure have a word or two with me, and it would be deserved. So...I will just put the end of that piece here, so that we can ALL see what some of their strategy is....We've heard of many of the things already in the everyday news. Looks as if this group is definitely trying to change Foreign Policy.... Wonder why it is they didn't even mention any of the fundamentalist radical Islamist led countries in their diatribe.....? Wonder if they could/would try to say any of this in those countries? 8888888888888888888888888888888888 A political strategy against war This historical and class analysis of the causes and driving forces of the war leads to a number of fundamental conclusions, without which the anti-war movement is bound to fail. * The opponents of war must turn to the working population, which stands in fundamental opposition to the entire system of capitalist exploitation and imperialist plunder, and is experiencing the system’s decline on a daily basis, in the form of unemployment, social cuts and attacks on democratic rights. Opposition to war must be bound up with a program that addresses the burning social issues of jobs, income, education, health care, housing and the defense of democratic rights. * The allies of the European opponents of war are not the European governments that are haggling with the Bush administration, but rather the working people of America. Any alliance with the European governments cuts the anti-war movement off from both the American and European working class. It is an alliance with governments—for example, France and Germany—that are themselves carrying out brutal attacks on democratic rights and social conditions. * The movement against war must be international. It must unite the workers of all countries, colors and religions against the common enemy and reject all attempts to divide the working class. * The movement must be politically independent. It must not subordinate itself to parties standing with one or both legs in the camp of the bourgeois order—this includes not only the Democrats in the US, but also the Social Democrats, the Greens, the German PDS, the Communist Party in France and the Communist Refoundation in Italy. A new workers party must be built on the basis of an international socialist program. The International Committee of the Fourth International has created the World Socialist Web Site as an instrument for the development of such a party. On a daily basis, the WSWS analyses major political events and provides its readers with a political orientation. With its editorial offices on four continents and readers in almost all countries of the world, the WSWS provides the initial structure for a new, international workers party. We invite all participants in the demonstrations this weekend to read the WSWS every day, contact our editorial board, distribute our statements and send in articles yourselves. tact the Socialist Equality Party in your region.n our international movement and contribute to its development as the new leadership of the working class.
