CRANKING UP THE TENSION

Indications have been made that the US will not just seek to
hunt down whatever individuals or groups are actually
responsible for the murderous attacks in New York and
Washington, but will use the slaughter of American, British
and other workers as a pretext to go after "all
terrorists". What does this mean??

Prepare to see this tragedy for our American brothers and
sisters used by the US state and US capital to get a clear
run to use yet more force to pursue US strategic and
economic interests across the Middle East and elsewhere.

Workers must not be blinded to this. We none of us have any
country or "national" interest to divide us.

Murderous, reactionary bastards like Osama bin Laden were
armed and placed by US forces to safeguard US interests
against the interests of Russian capital and others in an
oil-rich region of our planet. Just like Sadaam Hussein
was...  We have no interest in the squalid conflicts between
groups of national capitalists and must not remain passive
in the face of another "war" escalation.

These conflicts, whether fought by capitalist states, or by
the Frankenstein's Monsters they create (like bin Laden)
have brought death and destruction to workers across the
Middle East: in Iraq, in Iran, in Kurdistan, in
Israel/Palestine, in Afghanistan, and now to workers in
America.

There will be no peace until the world's resources are held
in common by us all.

NO WAR BUT THE CLASS WAR!
ALL POWER TO THE WORKING CLASS!
