I see everyone has been busy since I left... sorry, I should have mentioned that I was doing an action(s) in DC and then attending a presentation and discussion on Chairman Avakian's New Syntesis in Chicago. I hope you weren't actually holding your breath Mr. Kim!

Well to answer your first question:
1. Please name the regimes the US has massacred. This is not to say it's never occured, but more to the point, I wanna know what examples YOU personally hold to be true regarding this statement.

Okay, well there is this obvious thing going on right now, but we can go back some. What about the end of the 19th century? The US promised to give the people of the Philippines independence from Spain, went back on that promise and massacred the people in the hundreds of thousands and commited unspeakable atrocities after "liberating" them(not to mention, waterboarding is nothing new, the US used this against Philippines long before after Guantanamo Bay).

Or how about the US sponsored Contras in Nicaragua? What about Panama? What about the history with Iran? No this isn't something new either! US been fucking with Iran for a very long time after Brittain lost its imperialist dominance in the world arena.

I could do this all day, but let's move on

2. Let's start off by asking WHO uprooted these people? Then, whose responsibility do you deem it to be to take care of these people, the US, who they are not even citizens of (nor typically care to be!) or their own Mexican government? You can dance all around this issue with ideologies of "in a perfect (communistic) world it should be this or it could be that, but in the real world of today and right fucking NOW who really SHOULD claim responsibility for the Mexican peoples problems?

Again, this has US fingerprints all over it! NAFTA agreement, do I really have to get into how people will do whatever it takes to survive(this is sort of like what you, and many others, like to tell me all the time, "human nature", except that you fail to understand that this nature is determined, dictated, by the prevailing enviromental and societal conditions...), that is why the people of Mexico are invading and is causing this contradiction between the American people and the Mexican people... but let's not confuse cause and effect, what is the root cause in this?

Who should have to pay for this, well the some sections of the ruling class seem to think that it is up to the American people. Correct me if I'm wrong, but i could have sworn that I made that perfectly clear, that it should not be a weight on the American working people. I thought I have expressed that before, but I may have neglected to that.

The fact is that this problem could be solved, it won't be easy mind you, but it can never be solved under this type of system. It will take a radically different type of society, a socialist society moving towards communism by achieving the four alls.

3. Are you trying to say that the US actually generated/empowered/enabled the Islamic Fundamentalist regime, hierarchy that exists today to fend off the Soviet Union? If so, please give facts to back that up, and this should be a really good one, since the Islamic faith has been around far longer than the US has been in existance and I think history shows that it has been steadily spreading throught known history since its inception, long before the US could have ever played any part in it, but I'll wait for you to drum that one up, OK?

The Islamic faith has been around for quite a bit longer than the existence of the US, but even the bourgeois media admits to this simple fact(that the US armed Islamic extremests to fight the Soviets in the 80's). There was a lot of this being aired shortly after the 9-11 attacks. There was this concern for the invasion of Afghanistan because of Tommahawk missles. You can find a lot more specific info on this off of the web(revcom.us has some things on this and so does worldcantwait.org and a lot of others).

I think I have answered the fourth one already in this reply.

And the last one, yes, the US, by which I mean the empire, the ruling class of this empire, the only ones who really gain off of this; not the people, the working class. Yes a lot of the American people are very good and very generous. People will give money to help with relief when there are disastors, and not just the Amercian people do this. The Us, however, only pours money into a situation when there is profit to be had off of it. The tsunami, actually, they had the opportunity to develop for hotels and resorts, to help the bourgeois class there make more profit off of exploiting the disaster, and the victims of it; after which the US can exploit the nation.

And I could get into New Orleans(and how these fuckers are abusing their own people!) right now, but again, I have to refer you to revcom.us for now.




(for quasismiling smiley
20 million dead Russians under Stalin. Stalin was very pragmatic yes, but this little historic fact is twisted by bourgeois telling of history. It was the Nazis that killed all of those Russians!

I will continue to struggle with you all, as well as many many others, on these and much more, as everything that is fucked up about this world cries out for the DOP and revolution and communism, and I encourage people to actualy try reading some of this paper(revcom.us) and the works of Bob Avakian, and if you get the chance to, I strongly suggest attending a Re-envisioning Revolution and Communism WHAT IS BOB AVAKIAN’S NEW SYNTHESIS? presentation and discussion, whether or not you agree with me, or communism in general.
