- II - Trotsky’s vile murder achieved its goal only because the leaders of the fourth international dissolved Coyoacan’s international centrede

From the FLTI we affirm that that blow affecting the Fourth International with Trotsky’s murder was a accurate shot, but it only could be decisive due to the Fourth International’s International Secretariat’s capitulating before the Stalinist terror and the siren songs of the “democratic imperialists” and thus dissolving the International Centre; the responsibility of such a capitulation fell in a great measure upon the leadership of the US SWP which returned to its country of origin. The Centre built in Coyoacan “was left vacant”. So the national sections of the Fourth International became isolated one from the other, having to endure without any counterbalance thousands of pressures in the total isolation under the terrible conditions of war in Europe and the counterrevolutionary blows by fascism and Stalinism.
   The greatest achievement of Bolshevism’s, the Fourth International headed by Trotsky in the’30s, was not destroyed by the murderous Stalinist picket but because of the leaders of the International Centre, who after Trotsky’s death deserted their task of keeping centralized more than ever the ranks of the world party of socialist revolution, when the war was already a fact, the proletarians confronting each other in the battlefields and the USSR being invaded by German fascist troops.
 As denounced by Trotsky, Stalinism enjoyed some advantages over social democracy in its counterrevolutionary job, not only for its degree of cynicism and thirst of vengeance, but overall for its centralization and the worldwide extension of its counterrevolutionary forces.
It was necessary not only to murder the chiefs of the internationalist fraction of the world working class, the only one that showed that the heaven could be taken by storm and jeopardized the imperialist dominance over the planet, but fundamentally, what was sought after by liquidating this revolutionary fraction was to annihilate the militant internationalism of the world proletariat. That militant internationalism had led to the foundation of the First International, to the worldwide general strikes for the 8 hour workday, showing that the world proletariat was able to unite in a single fist to hit the exploiters; the Third International had shown that it was possible to seize power in a country and that this power could only attain victory or maintain itself as an episode of the international revolution and to the extent that it could expand itself to the rest of the world.
 Trotsky’s murder was then a counterrevolutionary white terror exerted by the Stalinist bureaucracy for the sake of the world bourgeoisie and imperialism. It was the last of the executions of the series of counterrevolutionary Moscow Trials that liquidated the whole revolutionary generation of the Third International and the worthiest cadres of the Fourth International. In 1940 the only member of the Bolshevik Central Committee that had seized power in the October Revolution in the URSS still alive was…Stalin the assassin.
The physical blow given to Trotsky and most part of his international team by the KGB pursued the historic objective of liquidating the last of the leaders that in 1914 and 1915 “sat in the armchair” of Zimmerwald and Kienthal.
From the FLTI we affirm and vindicate what was denounced by Nadezda Krupskaja, Lenin’s spouse who, based on this thesis of the internationalists, affirmed that if Lenin hadn’t died in 1924, Stalin –as the expression of the forces of the bureaucratic counterrevolution and the expropriation of the October revolution- would have murdered him. How certain she was!
By murdering comrade Trotsky those forces tried that at the beginning of the 2WW and moreover in its aftermath, the Fourth International could not play the role of preparing the revolutionary parties for the task of leading the proletariat to seizing the power as the internationalists of Zimmerwald-Kienthal and the Third International had done in the last days of the 1WW.
Today the Trotskyite renegades, together with the impostors, falsifiers and various kinds of charlatans want to deny these revolutionary lessons before the eyes of the new generation of proletarians, so that they do not continue to exist and allow centralized international fractions of the proletariat to stand up again. Those renegades and traitors blame “Trotsky’s murder” for the crisis in the fourth International, and do not recognize the responsibility of their own capitulations and adaptations to every reformist leadership they met and to which they tied the fate of the world proletariat, containing and hand-tying it for the last 70 years.
Due to the crisis of this last 70 years in the Fourth International and international socialism within the ranks of the world proletariat it was definitely established, albeit in a negative way that only with international revolutionary leaderships at its head the proletariat could achieve its victories, the only true victories in its story. Thanks to those internationalist revolutionary leaderships it also could draw and keep, even when it was defeated, revolutionary lessons that prepared and forged new generations more revolutionary and conscious than the precedent ones, and so a continuity was attained for scientific socialism.
 The proletariat achieved its victories with the Paris Commune in the nineteenth century declaring all the workers in the World “citizens of the worker commune”. It also achieved its victories en the general revolutionary strikes for the 8 hour workday in the late nineteenth century, which threatened the foundations of world Capitalism. It achieved them conquering bread and land, liquidating autocracy and breaking the chain of the confrontation between workers of different nations in the 1WW with the seizing of power in Russia. And just because the Russian revolution couldn’t expand to Germany and to the rest of the imperialist countries, for the immaturity of the young communist parties what came were not victories but defeats and calamities for the proletariat.
And when the internationalist fraction was getting ready under the leadership of Trotsky and his general staff for organizing the second act of the world revolution for the aftermath of the second inter imperialist war, Stalinism gave its sure shot by murdering Trotsky.
The dissolution of the international centre of the Fourth International is what turned Trotsky’s murder into a historically decisive action. The revolutionary movement is paying today the price of the capitulation of those that dissolved the general staff of the world proletarian revolution, with a 70-year crisis in our world party. The revolutionary lessons of the international proletariat as “a class-for-itself” were interrupted in History. Every proletarian generation has had to begin anew its experience and learning passing through very heavy crisis. Revisionism and opportunism liquidated any continuity of the Marxist program.
The liquidators of the Fourth International don’t have, will never have a justification for their misdeeds. They receive and will always receive a condemnation from all who struggle for re-founding the Fourth International and standing up again on its feet the general staff of the world socialist revolution. The time for national programs has long ago passed out! Only the foundation anew of the Fourth International could give continuity to the program of socialist revolution!
