IF WE CONSOLIDATE SOCIALISM

If we consolidate Socialism, if we achieve the historical challenge, we will be founding the world that is going to be an example for the rest of humanity; it will show the path for the salvation of species.

The change in human relations will be great, we will all be brothers and the best of us will return. The problems will disappear; if we faced them together they will take manageable sizes. The strength of society will multiply by millions; we will be able to work wonders.

If we consolidate Socialism, we will bring heaven to earth, and life will change. Today’s anguishes, unemployment, insecurity, the meaningless life and going after goals that only increase the existential void will disappear dissolved by the force of an integrated society. The cheerful nature will receive the species that returns to its harmony.

Thus, the main change of Socialism is in human relations. If we live as brothers, life insecurity is reduced to minimum levels, and then we will reclaim space and time.

The night will not be encouragement to fear, but suitable for a cool ride. The house will not be a small bunker to protect us from our peers, but a home of homey love. The chains of existence will be diluted in fraternity.

Work -being for the whole society- will lose its compulsion for survival and it will become exercise of human achievement. The exploitation of capitalism will break through the cooperation of Socialism. The work will be confused with entertainment, both artists and volunteers, both building the New Man.

The streets will be a space for encounter, and will stop being battlefields, a clash of egotism that violates the human condition. The parks will not be overwhelmed by the cement of miserable interests. The nature will sing its harmony, and men will found in her, not an enemy, but a part of its essence.

They will return to the cities, now rational, humane and not stuffed; the singing birds will announce new life. The goals will change, the concerns would be -not how to survive but how to grow. The development of men’s potential and society will be possible.

To stop using unnecessary goods, superfluous and by eliminating artificial needs created by consumerism, the material forces of society will be multiplied and nobody would be unprotected.

Children will walk on peaceful streets and they would be everyone's children, protected by all, women will give their mothering love, her mother's love, with no more restrictions than their willingness, the maternal instinct will not have a brake in society, on the contrary, it would be considered as a human right.

If we consolidate Socialism, we would be giving concreteness to Christ's realization "To love one another", decreeing the end of prehistory and opening widely the doors to history. We will save species and life, hope would be come true. In short, man can –finally- be happy.

By the consolidation of Socialism is worth the fight.

THE SHADOW

The historical past does not disappear, its echo persists; it marks the present and it makes the clay that builds the future.

The French Revolution is projected on the Haiti of Petion and stains the independence of America. The Monte Sacro marks Saman de Guere. January, 23th is the ghost that goes into politics until today; those non-paid bills resound in the present’s actions. Thus, yesterday always appears, good and bad –in our days- are tinged with past.

A shadow covers the current politics in the world, revolutions and counter-revolutions; it is the fall of the Soviet Union. This fact influences and conditions the politics, the theory of recent years. Let's see.

The Soviet collapse made a theoretical effervescence, the capitalists hurried to build ideas that strengthened their domination, that thesis of the "end of history" emerged, the impossibility of socialism. Reformers found plenty that could be said about it and enjoyed making up theses about the burial of the Revolutionary theory.

Many of them turned to the past, but not as food for the future, but as a paralyzing shelter. Thus, they ran away, avoiding the march. Others chose the path of denial, and consequently became anarchists and skipped the necessity to find the answers to the present.

The Euro communism and all those theories that castrated the Revolutionary possibilities in Europe are direct consequences of the failure of Soviet test, it fed from the confusion to see a giant falling. Between us, that is MAS’ origin and this shameless opportunistic pseudo-left that today is begging from the crumbs of the right table.

These reformist theses -disguised of Revolution and try to overcome the Soviet collapse- feed the counter-revolutionary positions. These ideas have been refined to the point where they look as Revolutionary. When they can influence the triumphant processes, they hurt a lot, diverting them. It is important to warn about their existence and try useful signals to identify them.

The first fundamental fact is that they do not recognize the class struggle, not even the classes; they replace them by generic vagueness as crowd, community, people, constituent power, they talk about all but social class.

From this concealment dislodges that they do not consider the taking of power, they substitutes that fight by ecological skirmishes, minorities’ claims and "indignant." They deny organization and vanguard. When they encysted in the government, they spread their anarchism from the inside and weaken the formation of the Revolutionary State.

Therefore, the fall of the Soviet Union brought confusion in the Revolutionary camp; this confusion undermined the Revolutionary theory and deprived it of the basic concepts necessaries to move forward. We can say that, the most important of all Revolution today is to rescue the theory that guides the rising processes.

It is essential a great theoretical leap to overcome the swamp of inventions that -justified in the Soviet defeat- end up in the Right’s field and reformism, stopping the processes.

It's time to turn our eyes to Che.

THE LAST TRENCH

Capitalism has managed to convert humanity in a gigantic market where every material and spiritual thing comes about in goods, sensitive to be sold or bought. Therefore, the human-merchandise transformed in the main enemy of himself.

This process of dehumanizing that started thousand of years ago, with the possibility of the appropriation of someone else’s job, drives us to the extinction and condemns us to a miserable life.

The tenacious capitalism has conquered every expression of mankind, and life in society. The take of material was accompanied by the attack of spiritual, everything succumbs to the advance of merchandise: religion, art, imagination, everything surrenders to money’s altar. The world started to spin faster for the money, goods, the world of things crushes the human world, and the interest of capital prevails over the interest of humanity.

Wars are made for the benefit of capital, it does not matter how horrendous are the human or culture genocides Humanity is poisoned with drugs and artificial food to increase the earning on the stock market. Drugs and weapons gain capitalist’s bank accounts and destroy the youth that has no place in the system of goods.

In this battle of humanity –that resists to the capitalist degeneration, to the suicide that is the road towards merchandise- is just left a bastion, a shelter: “the motherly love”, the Mater…

The motherly love is the last trench against the capitalist selfishness, and the first trench in the Socialist offensive –that had cost a lot to capitalism to conquer it- is the preservation o the species “…There, in the motherly love, a last battle of humanity frees”. Let’s see.

Leon Zitchner puts mother’s breastfeeding on an equal footing with the most intimate bases of Socialism. He says: “…there, then, each one will receive according his needs and will give according his ability.”


But in that social form -as human as hard of being recreated- that is in that child’s childhood where every child lives with his mother while she is breastfeeding him, lulls him and gives everything to him without asking anything in exchange, with no equivalent, just for the fun of it, for the loving enthusiasm of fulfilling him in the act where –while she is giving- she fulfills herself…”

Capitalism tries to take the last trench, to defeat humanity. It attacks the breastfeeding; it reduces it to a mere problem of material food, substituting it by industrial formulas.

When they pretend compare home with the industry, occurs the spilling of love, putting love on an equal loving of a factory’s work. Some ask to remunerate it, transform the last redoubt of love in merchandise.

Revolutions must protect the motherly love, the loving family, and fight against the authoritarian family. That would be the human liberation core.

The Ministry of woman has to be the Ministry of Mothers or, more directly, the Ministry of Motherly Love.

Chávez is Socialism!!

IF SOCIALISM FAILS

If Socialism fails, if all those attempts go under, if our existent possibility does not succeed, then a deep disconcerted stage will come, resignation, disillusionment, apathy and despair. And capitalism –more savage than ever- encouraged, will have a free road to prey on the country and gobble up the planet.

Every time that a Revolutionary possibility is frustrated, the worst versions, the vilest forms of capitalism, move forward. It was like that in Allende’s Chile and the Venezuela of January 23, 1958; nowadays in China and Russia.

Today, we are the restraining wall of capitalism; if we fail -not only the country will suffer- a couple of hell’s gates will open and hate and selfishness will burst all over the planet.

It is important to study and precise what is going to happen in the immediate future if Socialism fails, and if it does not overcome all its enemies, from all kinds of furs and locations.

A great method to try to glimpse our future is to look at the transit of our brother countries that have tried to build -within Capitalism- a new world more or less happy, more or less viable.

Mexico is a good example, with its kids singing songs for kids, lying on the floor evading the bullets from drug trafficking. Colombia is a good example too, with its oligarchy practicing -against its people- a genocide that had lasted more than half a century. Europe is it too, turning desperately towards fascism, searching in hate the answers to the crisis that hate created it.

If we want more precision we can talk about the U.S., with its huge debt and its spendthrift economy that holds at the expenses of the blood and sweat of the rest of the world. Or about china with it ramshackle moral, and insane young people selling –literally- parts of their body to buy unnecessary products created in factories that exploit the Chinese working class, just to enrich a few privileged and the worldwide capitalism.

It is very easy to deduce from this picture the consequences that would have over the country, if the Socialist attempt fails. Let’s see.

Insecurity will reach unknown sceneries for us; the organized crime will dispute the hegemony to the capitalist State and in that war between cunning devils, society will be the victim. The Mexicanization and Colombianitazion of society will put in danger the existence of the nation.
The brutal privatization of economy will lead this country to a misery lands never seen, and the frustrated people, confused, will be controlled by a horrendous repression. Darker days will come.

It is so, few time society has had the responsibility to decide its own luck, and, when doing it, deciding the continent’s fate and the future of humanity, as the Venezuela society of nowadays.
We have to perceive the compromise in its global magnitude and make the efforts to move society to the greatness of the challenge. Only like this we can accumulate the necessary awareness to overcome the difficulties of the road towards existence.

With Chávez more than ever!!

CHOCOLATE RAINDROPS AND A KIDNEY

Two news shocked sensitivity and call to reflect about humanity’s future in hands of capitalism. Let’s read some paragraphs from the first news:

“In the middle of a drug’s war, a teacher from a kindergarten -in Monterrey- is the most recent example of a citizen converted in an unsuspected hero, according to the Mexican public opinion. Martha Ivette Rivera, 33 years old, recorded with her cell phone a video that showed what was happening in her class last Friday.

While in the outside was a exchange of shoots, her 16 pupils -barely 5 or 6 years old- looked at her frightened as she sheered them up to sing, lying down on the floor, to distract them from shooting’s attention: “If raindrops were chocolate, I would love to be there”. The video, where it shows how the teacher tries to calm the kids while in the back was the shooting, converted an immediate hit in the social networks (it is youtube).

Rivera says that it is not the first time that shootings happen near downtown, but never like that Friday: “I put into practice the safety protocols, dropping on the floor and I put a little creativity. I wanted to keep them protected as much as possible, so I remembered that every time we sang “Chocolate Raindrops” we do it lying on the floor”. The teacher recalls, who –in addition- I responsible for a safety program in the educative center.

At the beginning of her first class after the shooting, Martha Rivera asked –like always- what song the kids wanted to sing; the answers –she says- was clear… “Chocolate raindrops!”.

Mexico keeps a commercial relation with United Status which is envy of capitalist oligarchies from the continent; let’s recall uribe’s adulations when he signed treaties with gringos. Well, this privileged country within capitalism is being dissolved fro the inside by the drug’s mafias, executers of any existent misdeed, like human trades and hired international assassins; that without talking of maquilas with the slave labor.

The shocking incident in the Mexican kindergarten is a clear sample of the directions where capitalism drives us.

The second news, tragically as direct as a dagger to the liver, does not require great commentaries; it is an extraordinary compendium of the capitalist civilization. Let’s read the news:

“In China, a teenager has been press of marketing, but beyond all, of the Apple tablet iPad2; this young sold one of his kidneys just to get cash for his iPad2, and now he is ill. This is a very difficult complex and complete picture of the capitalist civilization, and just if there is a lack of a clear definition, let’s adds the irony that the spreading portal of this tragic news is sponsored by Apple”.

Everyday evidences of the mistaken road towards capitalism emerge, its disrespect to life and peace, every day we can see the urgency to overcome it.

THE BATTLE OF STUDY

In every step of Revolution the need for study makes presence. The great Revolutionary leaders motivate education as the column of Revolution, starting with Bolivar who early understood that “an ignorant people are the blind instrument of its own destruction”, and only education could prevent people from being abused in its own credulity.

It is time and the recent events show it precisely to make study more serious and socialize the Revolutionary ideology, making people to take possession and empower in the new culture. To spread a new way of thinking, of reflection, a new method of analyses different from the trivialities that the capitalist means of cultural diffusion had installed in our psyque, different from the morale values, from the ethics that audiovisual media, cinema, soap operas, the pulpit, museums and school have imposed to us.

Why Revolution has failed in the intention of study until now?

It is important analyze the causes, only that way we could retake the path to the education of masses, the birth of a new culture.

The origin of flaws in the Revolutionary education can be found in the petit bourgeois ideology and its anarchic version, incapable of stepping up towards the construction of Socialism.

We already know that the petit bourgeoisie can not construct Socialism, the nearest it had came is to criticize capitalism. It can not overcome the means of production of private property; those are the foundations of its selfishness, and its individual get away. If it has any power it uses it, in short to create more capitalism.

Its anarchic version -with its pusillanimous rejection towards the State, every State- drives it to a wrong vision of domination and, therefore, liberation. They ignore the hegemony of the capitalist ideology, its values and culture, that way they reduce Revolution to a distorted vision of the “colonized people” by the capitalist culture. There is no a vanguard need, or an education need to them, “people will know what to do”… Then, why study? Who will teach who? Why direction?

Along with this absurd and pedantic opinion, they sabotage any attempt of education, of study.

But without study the Revolutionary march problems can not be solve; the mass and the leaders would not understand the tactic and strategy; they will not know how to handle irreverence and discipline, they will confuse causes with consequences. So, they are able of establish bureaucracy as objective, but they accept –without blinking- the hybrid capital-Socialism and the non-social property of means of production that origins them.

Che, in a letter to Hart in 1965, from the battle field said to him: “That is why I made a study plan for me that, I believe, can be studied and greatly improved to construct the base of a real school of thinking, we have already done a lot, but some day we will also have to think.”

With Chavez all!
Now it is time to think!

CHRIST CHE

The placidness of Che’s face, recumbent on the table of the school La Higuera, invokes the face of Christ in the arms of his mother Mary when he was put down the cross, the condemn of Sanhedrin. It is the cheerful impassivity of the greats, who know that their enemies cannot defeat them: the noble spirit, that love that inhabits them also protects them. Their bodies can be harm, but their example -their soul- will be unscathed from that task, and it will become a symbol of those who fight for the common well.

The same frustration of the priestly aristocracy from Sanhedrin was suffered by those who pretended condemn to oblivion Che Guevara, murdering him and hiding his corps. The judges of Sanhedrin were so naïf that they persecuted the followers of Christ, and those who offered their life to the cause of love and the sacred mandate: “to love one another”.

Let’s imagine the judges’ faces who condemn Christ, and we will find the look of Ugalde, frustrated, furious, as those who thought that in the cross will end the Redeemer’s work.

Ugalde -as Christ’s executors- is on duty of the imperial domination service. Early, he felt that, along with Revolution, his master’s privileges were in danger; so he put all his effort to condemn the love that was rising. So, he was the architect of April’s disgrace, he was an activist of hate. He failed.

Now, he returns to be gadget of the fight against Revolution. He represents a wise current within evilness, it is necessary to study his steps in detail, which are calculating and attack in noble places, deeper without wasting time in secondary objectives; they prepare -with astuteness- the terrain so others can give the snatch and stain their hands, they do not appear in Golgotha, they prowl around the shores licking repeatedly the exudates from their work.

Ugalde attacks Che in his column -in the newspaper “El Nacional”, the example irritates him, and he is frighten that Christ comes back in these men who recall his sacrifice; the placid expression of Che’s face accuses him, and becomes a traitor of this cause of love.

Ugalde –in his column- shows a true character, he apostatize Christ’s teachings and he appears as a member of Sanhedrims that always chase the righteous. This is what Ugalde writes:
“The conquering of impossible, as a political goal of power, always ends with crime and misery. We invite to a hard journey on the desert to conquer the evilness land, with the new man, reconciled for ever with his plenitude (…) A heaven on earth with a proper economy, nothing mine or yours, where working would be a pleasure, because there will not be either exploitation nor obligation.”

It seems impossible what Christ proclaimed: to love one another, each one according his need and ability. It forecasts the failure of those who try to obey Bible’s words. They persecute Che as the persecuted Christ.

With Chávez more than ever!!

THE EXCITEMENT OF VICTORY

A hurricane of excitement traveled across Venezuela, the entire nation was furiously touched as an answer to gringo’s insolence. People went out to the streets, speakers through slogans that inflate passionately the popular soul.

The mass roared united in one feeling for the defense of dignity, we returned to the passion of big and noble causes.

It was a successful first stage; the aggressor saw that we have the fire that feeds the lofty works from people. So far everything is very good, now it comes the stage of constructing the victory’s possibility in the confrontation that already has begun. The answer is: How do we get ready and how to prepare people to win? Let’s see.

First of all, we have to be cold-minded because it is about a fourth generation war, it is to say, a war that is won within the soul, where misinformation and manipulation play a fundamental role.

A sort of superior organism for political communication is needed in order to coordinate, direct and study the battle of this important field. We can not trust this to chance, the structure’s chance that works right in peaceful times. The circumstances are others, and some other have to be the ones to face them.

People have to be called, without the fiction that “they already know” and being sure they go on the same direction, the leaders’ direction, there would be an automatic answer.

People have to be convinced, winning them over the idea, that understand that the best option is to fight next to Socialism, and that there is not shortcuts to peace and happiness, the road demands sacrifices.

Thus, when we call for some action we must have people that –in fact- are ready, informed, convinced to do it, and organized in such way that they really do it.

The social and political organization has to sharpen, adjusting to the new tasks, mobilizing, and recovering the discipline that the new conditions claim. This is not time to go around inventing actions per item, being more catholic than the pope, moving forward crazily or saying what anger makes us.

As far as we give massive, organized, disciplined and astonished answers, and show our high level of awareness and devotion towards the cause of our motherland, in that way we will deer the fascist beast, conquering the real peace.

The political and conscious level of masses must be elevated rapidly, and only that can be found through action: the best lecture of education for people is on the streets, mobilizing around the altruistic objects. There, in community, communicated, when the feeling elevates and the heart opens noble causes, people understand better the Socialist message, of fraternity and loving relation.

The excitement achieved must complement with the discipline’s rigor, the organization that multiplies the strength, the study that provides mass of understanding and the faith that crosses adversity.


With Chávez more than ever!!

THE MIRACLE CAN NOT BE LOOSE

When Fidel qualified our Revolution as miracle, he was right; every Revolution is a miracle, an extraordinary fact, inexplicable and amazing. A Revolution is an event that distinguishes man from animal; it is the high fact of culture.

These are times when man rise over nature, and appetites; he embarks on the odyssey of being spirit, God, of recreating the world in seven days. He liberates from the animality chains, always the same, just instinct, foreseeable by nature, of being dominated by nature, by genes, and the miracle is done.

The fundamental requirement for a Revolution is the unchained imagination, then pioneer’s courage, the first flight, breaking paradigms; the non-conformity of remaining and always move forward.

Those are scarce requirements; the tendency is to stillness, to apply what is known. To live in what is established, not making waves, everything has to remains.

Rose Luxemburg said in a letter to Franz Mehring: “Socialism is not just a problem of knife and fork, but a movement of culture, a great and powerful conception of the world”.

It is a beautiful definition of miracle: to change the culture and the conception of the world. Certainly, it is not an issue of quantitative management of some economic rates; it is a drastic change in the economic and social relations, a new way to connect with humans and nature. It is an explosion of all, and over that sparkle we found.

In the Bolivarian Revolution, it is okay that we feel happy about the increasing rate, or because it was done without affecting the social assistance plans. But showing that, the rise of capitalism, the “harmony” of what is social, and the capitalist selfishness as a road towards Socialism; that is a big mistake. At least, Che alerted us about it, and because less than that the Socialist field crumbled.

Let’s not forget that there is a narrow relation between the economic shape (knife and fork) and the consciousness that interweave within (the “cultural movement”, the great and powerful conception of the world). We want to say that the capitalism’s growth do not stay behind in the rates and economic tables, it is multiplied by thousands of collective souls.

In such way, selfishness grows, which is the psyche base of capitalism, its culture. In other words, those rates indicate –among other things- the strengthening of the capitalist field, the grave-diggers of Socialism.

Now that the empire showed its tusk, those rates become more important: it is about weakening the spiritual base from the answer towards aggression.

The brandished argument that -we grew up with a social well fare- has in its bosom the negation of Socialism. It is other way of saying: “without capitalism we do not produce wealth”, it is the contradiction in suggesting that capitalism creates the wealth that Socialism deals.

Such naivety will lead us to defeat. It causes us to paraphrase that famous sentence and say: “the economy is so important that it cannot be left in hands of economists”.

With Chávez all!!

MEMORIES’ REBELLION

Revolution is a battle against forgetfulness; a resistance to be a shipwrecked only programmed to repeat the same action of million of equals, living without knowing, no past, and no future.

The capitalist humanity drives us to oblivion; the individual dies away because relations disappear with its physical and spiritual environment, it is there that existence holds, in the architecture, in the streets that saw him grew, in the park where he played, in the neighbor and his friends. Capitalism uproots us from our memories.

Societies suffer from forgetfulness: their memories blur slowly until the environment becomes a estrange territory for everyone, they live in a whirlwind, suspended by the speed of disruption which prohibits grasping to any physical or spiritual thing -in consequence- dementia cannot be put off.

Capitalism’s drive for profit has transformed us into an existing species that buys and sells; a market-humanity.

For that reason is that we are enemies, strangers, we only exist in the market where life is traded for a few coins. We sell ourselves in order to buy; we buy so others can sell themselves. We only exist in the market, outside there are just zombies.

So, we waste our life in this carousel, and at the end there is nothing, the insignificance, and the machine’s march towards emptiness.

One of the main objectives of capitalism is to erase society’s feelings, as a consequence it dissolves the mortar that integrates it, and stops the collective tasks; only individuals can be identify because they consume the same.

That is why history does not please him; the past is the source of his feelings, without it we can substitute the founding epic, the winning goal, the top model, the “American idol”; and quickly, he would be substituted by another one as insignificant as him.
From history remains what gives profit, the material things, and the feelings are erased. So, Bolivar remains as an avenue or a square, nothing exciting; Carabobo is a state or a commercial brand not a heroic battle; Zamora, a district of Aragua.

The last aggression that the empire did to this segment of Bolivar’s motherland -because that is what we are, a forgotten gaping of Bolivar’s dream- made flower the sleeping feelings of the unconscious collective in the memory of the masses. Let’s remember!!

The year of 1810 returned to the heart of millions, the sense of motherland, the heroic Carabobo’s ride become present in the oil fields; Caracas went back to the same spark of 1812, when Bolivar called it to make nature obey us to turn into gods, who are moved by the sacred patriotic fire.

Let’s leave behind the individualistic rest and let’s fusion as the people able to do bigger exploits; we were the astonishment and the empire feared, its lackeys searched the costumes and the poisons to deceive again, they brandished the seven stars flag and the black stripe that betray gringos.

With Chávez all!!

TARGET: HAVANA

Since Revolution entered triumphant into Havana (January 7th, 1959), gringos try to isolate Cuba from the rest of America. In this effort, they do not ceased one day, they did what ever it took: from invasions, blockings, and AOS’ expulsions to more than six hundred attempts to kill Fidel. But where they have achieved the most is in the misinformation of that reality. Let’s see.

Gringos are experts in psyche operations and actions of misinformation, the samples are abundant: from Sadam’s biological weapons to the self-attack of Twin Towers, a U.S. operation that is already studied in the academies of spy’s education; and now the recent trap to IMF’s president.

Gringos detected the importance of the Cuba-Venezuela’s alliance, and they formed especial offices in charged of developing plans against this connection. They declared that brotherhood and the agreements between these two countries were vital to the Continental Revolution.

The plans against our union deploy face our faces. They have to main aspects:

One aspect is leaded to demonstrate that Socialism failed in Cuba, and it is coming back as in the rest of the old Socialist field, that Socialism is a Chavez’s delirium. Let’s recall the manipulations of Fidel’s statements.

Thus, they try to disenchant the Venezuelan people, hiding the heroism to those people that has resisted over half a century with the Socialist flags up high; it is to say preserving the way to save humanity.

Gringos try to degrade Cuban’s behavior, manipulating their image; they put Cubans as “go-getters”, when actually they are heroes made out the same paste that the five Cubans kidnapped by the empire, whose conduct is example and hope to humanity.

In this manner, they facilitate the job to reformists, opening possibilities to hoaxes indicating that the way is wrong. They want to kill hope.

Another aspect is as crude as harmful. Paradoxically, gringos accuse Cuba as the “red devil” and Chavez of copying that model. They use this manipulation to stimulate the sick minds, thus, they create bases to the fascist snatch, the assassination.

This is an operation of disinformation that has several years; it is brought to power by the right-winger swine, it is lift up by the echoes of unwary minds and reformists in the Revolutionary field. They ride within the mistakes that follow every Revolution; they magnify and elevate them to a status as it is the essence of processes.

The above allows us to affirm that the measurements against PDVSA and the menace to deepen them are intended to connect Havana and Caracas.

It is indispensable that the popular wave of rejection towards the yankee disgrace reinforce the brotherhood between Cuba and Venezuela. Now we must be closer than never, more unite to confront the common enemy.

Cuba must exist, it is indispensable to the continental and worldwide revolution, the connection has to be reinforced increasingly. Anything justifies to attempt against it, whatever favors it has to be done.

Cuba debe existir, es indispensable para la Revolución continental y mundial, la conexión debe reforzarse cada vez más. Nada justifica atentar contra ella, todo lo que la favorezca debe hacerse.

THE INTERNATIONAL AGGRESSION

With gringo’s aggression against Venezuela, Bolivar’s Black Horse came back; Caracas was -once again- a head lamp, the clarion of 1810 sounded all over the continent. The glorious days of Bolivar’s army returned.

Thus, the imperial aggression is an aggression against the Continent, and the answer must me continental. This was truth in the Independence’s epic, and so it is now. The empire that we face is worldwide, there is no a triumph option to the isolated people. It is necessary to join together what capitalism separated, it is time for internationalism!

The Bolivarian Revolution must show its internationalist deep feeling, it is necessary to break isolation that for centuries oligarchs had imposed to insurgents. It is not casual that empire’s irritation be due to an international act of solidarity.

Oligarchy conspires against the Revolutionary Internationalism, oligarchs know that there is not a consolidated triumph if it is internationalist, which is why they accuse and deform the solidarity with our brother nations.

The attack that we suffer today is due to our relations with Iran, but in the bottom it is because our brotherhood with Cuba, which is the real target of gringos, to break the continental unit revolved around Socialism, they try to kill the example.

The Revolutionary leadership must continue to lead the people. The journeys to support PDVSA, Socialism and Commander Chavez have been extraordinary. And the courage of leaders -that step up firmly face the aggressor- are extraordinary.

Now it is necessary to move forward and to deepen, the internationalist journeys are indispensable to go beyond declaration. We must have firm answers and practice, which show our international vocation; with it the process will get stronger, it will give a human dimension to it and it will reinforce it facing last-minute imposters who proclaim support our motherland, but they do not condemn neither capitalism nor imperialism.

It is time, the circumstances are given, and time is propitious to move forward towards internationalism.

The oil workers have to continue giving concrete samples of internationalism. They – with their class sense of smell- notice earlier that the aggression has as target to attack the Socialist possibility. They realized that class’s and society’s liberation is a task charged of internationalism. They made the cause of liberation of the five Cuban heroes their own, who stay kidnapped in the empire’s dungeons. Oil workers assimilated the great deed of Granma with our glorious February 4th.

The empire does not forgive insurgency; there is Petion’s Haiti, which still pays the imprudence of being the first republic to rebel against the American oligarchs. In the continent, still resounds the declaration of “Black Jacobins” that scared a lot to oligarchs.

ALBA cannot be accepted, the example bothers more than the loss of oil control.

Defend ourselves is to defend Socialism, defend Cuba and ALBA. Thus, the picture must be perceived like that, if we see it isolated, we will doing practical and theoretical service to the enemy.

WE ARE NOT ALONE

Arrogance is a plague that always threatens man. Formerly, it was believed that the earth was the center of the universe, and everything went round it, therefore, man. It was also believed that we are alone in the universe; we are a miracle, a superior species. The races have fall into arrogance and they have considered themselves superior. Justified in this superiority, wars and exterminations had been carried out.

When arrogance reaches politics, the consequences are disastrous; fascism and Nazism are the direct emanation of this plague, Now, Revolution by definition, is not arrogant; when the subordinate fall into this disease the failure road starts.

The revolutionary is humble, he does not underestimate his enemy, he never imagines that his alone on the scenery, he considers -in every planned step- the presence and the action of the powerful enemy.

The reformist, capitalist at last, allowed arrogance, and when he is in the Revolution ranks, hurts a lot; nothing annoys him more than irreverence, it is intolerable; and that way he tries to institute the peace of the graveyard, the boring image of what is uniform, that way kills discussion, intelligence and creation.

The arrogant hurts Revolution very much. He never thinks, reflection is the daughter of humbleness, and pride is the daughter of cretins.

The arrogant, along with the weaknesses that hides his shell, licks up and hits down, the only thing that matters is to be well with the “bosses” and prevent the consolidation of Socialism; that would a fatal blow to his bright headedness: the discussion in organizations, the criticism of masses will liquidate him, he senses it.

Down, he is relentless with the intelligence that leaves him naked, and the irreverence that challenges him. He always manages to get out of it.

The arrogant, always reformist, creates his fantasy and thinks that his illusion is the real world. That is why he underestimates the enemy, he makes plans which do not resist a blow of reality, he mistakes the stage of confrontation he is more interested in the media and immediate results than the solidness of the rigorous construction.

He does not understand the cultural battle, and feels comfortable with the capitalist culture that justifies his haughtiness. He neglects the battle in the collective soul; he leaves it to the mercy of the capitalist values.

His plans are condemned for the enemy’s strong battering that –ignored- take advantage of the weaknesses and the cracks that his incompetence leaves.

We must defeat the “reformist petit bourgeois” arrogance that considers itself alone in the world, it plans ignoring that it confronts the biggest imperial power that has ever existed, with a thousand of thinking groups, universities and talented people to its service.

Revolution needs to fight where it is strong, in the loving spirit, in the rescue of fraternity, in the foundation of new relations. If we abandon this land, if we give priority to the material, the defeat is secure.

With Chavez, all!!
Without him, nothing!!

THE TRAGEDY OF BLIND

To not relate life’s success to each other –within its deep causes- is a type of blindness, perhaps more intense than the one that darkens vision, because it eclipses the soul and understanding, it hampers us to access to concepts.

Relating is previous to coherence, and only that provides us a strategic direction. Incongruity is a sing of tactics, to start over with each event, to wander about the world beaten by the reality that we do not understand. Only like that we perceive the shadows, but never the lights that it produces.

This type of blindness is interest of dominant classes; and while they are fomenting it, they insist all their deforming media. They know that the people that do not suffer from this blindness have awakened from its liberation, and it is qualified to win the important battles.

To the oligarch-bourgeois is vital that mass does no link, for example, the weather imbalance with blackouts, the shortage of food, with the migration of starving people, with unemployment, and above all with capitalism that produces it; if they do that they will have clear they objective, and the bourgeois system will live its last days.

To the capitalist is vital that gringo’s aggression against PDVSA and our motherland looks like an event divorced from its root: the U.S.’ desperate need for combustible; that is its law.

That is how teodoro describes it: “within the multilateral framework and debate, anything, even that one that could be considered as unfair, is admissible, but the unilateral framework -of great power- is completely unacceptable”. It distracts towards legality, it takes care of the sight and covers its shame of imperial servant.

The blind people, those who do not relate, and always mistaken the principal battle, get resign with insignificant victories, they mislay from fetish.

That happened on January 23rd, 1958: with the excuse of confronting the spectrums of a dictatorship that no longer existed, a unity with the capitalist executors hatched, and opened a road so reformists and bourgeois negotiate the Revolutionary possibility.

The recent aggression against Venezuela is not an isolated fact; it is a component of the international and national oligarchic-bourgeois offensive against our motherland, a confrontation that comes from our beginnings, when the mantuans prudish pretended a monarchical committee in 1810. That is the bottom of the fight, the origin of all that confrontation.

Every time those patriots had forgotten this teaching of history they have been defeated, and every time that the oligarchic-bourgeoisie feels danger into its system of domination and privilege, they try conciliations and armistices to accumulate strength and prepare the snatches. Bolivar warned about it in Cartagena’s Manifesto.

This aggression and the huge popular rejection have to be an opportunity to deepen Socialism, which is the only way to defend our motherland. We have to be alert with the capitalist castrating unity’s attempts who are the inner agents of aggression.


With Chavez, more than ever!!
With Chavez all!!

MEDIOCRES’ COWARDICE

A fundamental difference between the mediocre politicians and statesman is that politicians are all ears for the tactical opportunity, but they are as deaf as a post to the great strategic requirements.

Mediocre move carried by the wind of circumstances, they are opportunists, their strategic is to be likable all the time, they scurry difficulties until a “black Friday” arrives.

The statesmen tell the truth to the people, leading him toward deep solutions.

When Churchill takes power of the besieged England by Nazism, he did not hide anything to people, he did not promise any comfort and said: “blood, sweat and tears will be the cost to succeed these difficulties”… he resisted and vanquished. He behaved as a statesman, and paid tribute to strategy, he said the truth, harsh, irritating, but the winning truth.

When Fidel arrived to La Havana, January the 7th, he explains:

“I think this is a decisive moment for our history: tyranny has been overthrow. The joy is huge. However, there is a lot to do. We do not fool ourselves believing that from now on all will be easy; perhaps in the future everything would be harder”.

Recently the English Economy Minister states:

“The British are poorer as a result of the financial crisis, and they will wait a slow period of growth. He urged the country’s politicians to better prepare the public for difficult times. The public opinion must understand “how painful” is going to be the near future.

He pointed out that “the political class as a whole is not preparing the public to understand the massive scope of the problem”.

Braves were the words that called out world leaders to good sense. There are a lot of truths to say to the world, i.e. that the weather imbalance will en the earth’s life, but not in one day but gradually; that predicted end has already started, and we are running out of time to revert it.

If there is a lack of food, and the drinking water disappears, the tendency is to deepen in the shortage, in brief, telling the world the unsustainability of these levels of waste and wrong usage of resources. Through that way, life will disappear very soon, and in little time it will not be possible to maintain civilization as we know it. We have to make changes, or nature will do them for us but cruelly.

The situation is extremely serious, time requires of statesmen capable to confront empire’s attacks, those attacks that twist up in the crisis shortages that it created itself. These are no time for coward petty politicians, which turn with the wind, always with the dagger and the American passport hidden away.

In Venezuela we have our leader, people and workingmen able of changing, here are moral reserves to try to be an example to the world, and here we have the greatness of spirit to be optimistic.

With Chavez, all!

FOR MOTHERLAND, FOR PEACE, FOR SOCIALISM, FOR CHAVEZ…

The U.S.A.’s sanctions against out motherland must be studied carefully. Plenty of questions emerge immediately. Let’s see.

What are the intentions?

The measures are so vague and indefinite that they give a political signal character instead of an economical effect. Thus, we can deduce that -on one hand- they try to satisfy the inner requirements of gringos: reinforcing the though image of obama, removing flags to the extreme right sectors and raising points in sector where people confronts their crisis, crying out a turn to the extreme right.

In any case, they intervene in our domestic politics trying to activate the Nicaragua’s effect: the fear as the people’s decisive factor. They threaten with further sanctions, leaving in uncertainty as far as they can: Libya or Iraq? That is the most important statement of USA’s communiqué, it gives it meaning.

In this way, they try to sow a mental instability, the fear in the great sectors of the Venezuelan society, and Chavez as the “perturbing factor”: to get rid of him would be “to recover tranquility”.

Undoubtedly, we are facing a finely craft maneuver. This is just the first step, the enemy is wise, clever and has no scruples… and another question immediately arises: How to cope the developing aggression?

Excellent were the statements that the Chancellor and the Energy and oil minister gave during the press conference: the line is to defend sovereignty, our motherland, and Revolution. We are proud to have a government that is not afraid, and does not kneel down; on the contrary, it grows against the bites of the northern empire.

But to the fascist imperial aggressions there is only a way to tackle it: a huge national mobilization of patriotic reaffirmation, socialist and “chavista”, and the clear determination of the oil workers to defend their industry and society.

Only by demonstrating in practice to gringos and their fascists’ infiltrators, what are our intentions to defend our motherland, with the same courage and determination of our forefathers, we will crush their attacks. Fascists only stop when facing virile people, they are willing to consecrate everything in the infamous motherland altar.

Fascists move forward face coward people. When they find intolerable the cost of aggression to their public opinion, they will move backwards.

We must prepare to stop the escalation announced with this first signal, the country must be alert, the right will have attitudes of different sings to take advantages of the onslaught gringa, that is a part of their plan.

Then, against the aggression that we are undergoing, the answer is the mobilization and unity around Commander Chavez and Socialism. That is the only way to preserve peace and having our motherland.

If they dare, we have to deepen Socialism, in those conditions there will not be a chance to the coexistence with capitalism. We must move forward, in such way, that the domestic capitalist –the empire’s agents- loose all ability to attack us.

With Chavez now more that ever!
With Chavez all!!

BANCO CENTRAL’S REPORT

The recent economical report presented in a press conference with the participation of the president of Banco Central de Venezuela, the Financial Planning Ministry and the president of the National Institute of Statistics, deserves some analysis. Let’s see.

The bank’s president tells us:
“The public sector grows 3, 3% and the private gross domestic product did it as well in a proportion of 4, 6%; while the non-oil economical activity increased 5, 2%. The private and public sector grow, it is a very important element that speaks about the coherence of the politics implemented, and of the harmonic recovery that will remain.”

“Harmonic Recover”, a estrange qualification of what it is, clearly, a reflex of a fierce struggle between Socialism and Capitalism. Through that “harmonic” path, capitalism -that inexplicably we raise- will end up gobbling the Socialist intention up.

Che already alerted how danger is that path, he talked about tools, and in that case he did not mean just tools, but the whole machinery, the capitalist structure. The market –a territory where explodes’ blood and sweat of scams- becomes stronger along with the private sector. The oil’s income transference (dispossession) is made in that “harmonic” strengthening.

The financial-planning Minister points at that:
“The oil motor, which is the first motor of economy, warrants the necessary resources to keep the growth, but the second motor that is associated to the construction already starts to react positively propped up by the initiatives of the government, both sector (construction and oil activity) have an impact in the GDP of almost 20% -plus the weight of 14, 8% that manufactures has- show a clear road towards expansion.”

We have to deduce that in those two “motors” the same scheme that is prestige at present will be applied: growth, “harmonic” expansion, it is worth to say: development of private sector –Socialism’s executioner.

It attacks the attention that in the report Socialism does not appear anywhere; the only thing mentioned is “the sustainable growth that will allow consolidate the achievements reached in the social area”

It is clear that Revolution occurs in the middle of a fierce ideological struggle, and this report shows us the situation of the conflict in the determinant economical field. It let us deduce and determine the cause of the problems that has the Socialist construction in every sphere of social life.

This situation reflected in the economical report is a part of how confrontations goes between Socialism and capitalism, and which are the movements of the reformists trends.

The situation calls us to keep fighting for Socialism, and make the economy of Social Property administrated by the State, the support of Socialism and its consciousness.

It is about saving Revolution, Socialism, and Commander Chavez. We know that reformism digs the grave, raises executioners and crows from Revolutionary aims.

With Chavez, all!

WHY IS GROWTH USEFULL?

The recent economic report from Banco Central de Venezuela registers an increase in the GDP, which makes all the economists jump of joy. Some of them are happy because the manufacture elevated, and others presage a sustainable growth for several months.

What does this rejoicing mean? How does data -in the march towards Socialism- influence? Is it still the goal?

Before we get going, economy has a narrow relation with consciousness. If economy has a strong selfish component, of competence and exploitation; in short, if it is capitalist –based on the non-social property of means of production- then the selfish awareness will hold.

On the contrary, if economy is based on fraternity, in the use values, in the social property administrated by the national State; in short, it is Socialist -then the awareness that interweaves there, will be a loving awareness- consistent with the social duty, Socialist.

So, when a capitalist talks about economy, he resigns to see the growth rates from the private sector: consumption, profit, manufacture; and when those rates are good he feels happy, and everything else does not matter. The capitalist system has centuries improving economy and the selfish awareness that dislodges from it.

Reformists are a little more demure, they feel ashamed and behave the same as capitalists, but they search a variety of make-ups to represent their joy, which is the same as capitalists. They try to smuggle our way to china as if it is the road to Socialism, they costume of human capitalists. We could paraphrase a famous reaction from the German Socialist, August Bebel, and say: “what have you done reformist capitalist that capitalists applaud your rates”.

Socialists that want to substitute the system must have another economic data interpretation. Let’s see.

The economic growth of non-social property –that will hold the selfish awareness and it is against Socialism- is not the same as the social property growth that supports Socialism; it is a property that interweaves with the Socialist consciousness.

Socialism must study the economic movement with the awareness creator filter, from it will emerge the political behavior of masses, its electoral reflection.

We already know that the relation between the economic form, consciousness and the political behavior of society is narrow and intimate. However, in a peaceful Revolution this relation is more delicate: any diversion towards the non-social property will appear within politics but multiplied by thousands.

The pacific path to Socialism implies a frontal battle, extremist and against the capitalist culture, and that battle requires a economic base, social property, clear, and needs a permanent campaign to the socialist values, showing the relation between economy and consciousness.

The report from Banco Central and the commentaries that it causes, prove the struggle between the non-social economy –that resists to die- and the social economy that strongly emerge.

That battle –although it is not within politics- it is decisive for the success of Revolution.

With Chavez, all!!
Without him, nothing!!

THE FOUNDING RISK

The capitalist empire supposes the affiliation to the capitalist ideology of a huge human mass that stands their values and ethics.

According to the above, we can deduce that the capitalism’s dementia and the march towards extinction are the ailment of most of humanity. It is to say, we are a sick and mad species.

Also, a little group of their integrants gets better from this disease, and goes to politics to lead everybody’s healing, those are the Revolutionaries.

These Revolutionaries have the compromise to heal the sick species, they are healers, apostles. They are limited; sometimes 12 of them are enough, in others only one does the miracle.

Furthermore, when the small group takes the political power, it faces a complex task: the capitalist ideology is highly contaminant, diversion is plenty, temptations are powerful, danger threatens in every step and seduction fascinates. However, humanity has moved forward in the comprehension of its own sickness and cure.

First of all, we have to highlight that -human conditions are historical- that means that it varies, evolves, and it is one along with social relations, and those are changeable. This characteristic makes the rescue possible.

We can precise a bit more, and we can say that sickness are the capitalist relations. Or, better said, humanity is sick of capitalism, it converts humanity in a predatory species, failed, suicidal and enemy of life.

It is clear that the remedies to these humanity’s diseases are to overcome the capitalist selfishness and fragmentary relations. That is Revolutionaries’ role: to make Revolution useful to save humanity from itself.


This capitalist culture overcoming is a fight against the strong astute monster, as expanded in the planet as located internally in each of us.

The masses are exposed to the capitalist virus, and today along with technology, they are even more exposed that ever in history. The masses’ behavior is the security bolt of the system. The mechanism of existence, with the instruments of media domination, reproduce –in the oppressed minds- the dominant ideology, the submission behavior.

In a peaceful Revolution in power, the risks multiply. It is necessary a great courage to tell the mass that human’s relations must change, as well as the vision of the world, the habits and culture; we take the risk of being misunderstood, crucified or exiled to Saint Peter of Alexandria, when we perturb the slave’s peace.

By breaking the bubble that allowed domination, when open the mass’ eyes, we take the risk of the danger of being misunderstood, and the Revolutionaries enhancement by traditional parameters: How much material reward does it give me now? Does it liberate me from ancient fears?

That is the peaceful Revolution dilemma: in order to mover forward, the thrust must be said, and while saying it, the risks of scaring or be misunderstood are taken… those who opt for incontinence, succumbed; and those who opt for the risk, make it through history.

With Chavez, all!!
Without him, nothing!!

THE BATTLE FIELD

The choice of the battle field is one of the most important decisions in any conflict; however, if war is asymmetrical, the selection is decisive.

We confront a bourgeois-electoral dispute, a traditional territory of struggle between equal sides that just differed in surface, color and the fictitious image. It was like a sport tournament: AD against COPEI, Magallanes against Caracas. It did not matter who was the winner, the game will always be the same, rules did not change, the dominant classes stay unharmed and misery was immovable.

After the game, the lights from the stadium went off to light up again the next elections, the new circus opens to another inconsequential trial for the system.

It is convenient to the “opposition” this kind of conflict -which hides how significant is the silliness of verbal scratches, the stupid jingles of advertising agencies, the shallow denunciation, the hunt of mistakes that media exaggerates, the artificial shortage of supplies, people’s attacks and the grotesque use of superstition and magic. Let’s remember the traditional bets when the elections where near, let’s not forget the little war of surveys.

This way, they avoid the long vision that confrontation of projects and social systems give. The struggle is confined to the trick and trip, to the mediocre maneuver and lie. The exceeded promise and the verbal fling substitute the rigor of background’s discussion. The System was protected like that. This is the kind of elections that pretend rehabilitate.

Revolution must choose another battle field, in this one the electoral cretinism blurs. Revolution’s proposal has a superior strength, the proposal of change of System is invincible, unbeatable. Capitalism cannot resolve the problems it created itself, it is exhausted.

Revolution proposes a drastic change on the way of living, of the vision of the world, changing selfishness to altruism and hate to love. Which problem can resist to an integrated, healthy society that acts as a whole? Which force is greater than the force of all fighting for the good of all? Which system can be a better Socialism, which involves man, tranquility and the peace of living between brothers? There will be problems, they are inevitable, just now those problems are everybody’s problems and the solution will be everybody’s solution.

The Socialist society that proposes us found and that we propose to establish, is the human elevation towards territories, to the "always dreamt relations" but never reached in the entire history of humanity. It is truly to take the sky by storm, to make true Christ’s mandate “To love one each other”. That can only be done with Socialism, and the courage that Commander Chavez had to propose, and the faith that people had to accept. That is our best weapon and it must be our battle field.

With Chavez, all!!
Without him, nothing!!
