Endorsement of Workers International Vanguard League

Defend the Democracia Obrera in Argentina
domingo, 7 de octubre de 2012 17:38

On Wed 3rd Oct 2012 , the Argentinian state launched an attack on the members and leaders of the Democracia Obrera. Computers, cell phones and documents of the organization were confiscated. Among those attacked by the state include Paula Medrano (daughter of the disappeared) and Viviana Noguerol.
 
As Workers International Vanguard Party, we condemn this attack on the Democracia Obrera- it is an attack not only by the capitalist state of Argentina but also of imperialism.  The attack shows that the repressive apparatus of the state that existed during the time of the military dictatorship, is still very much alive. During the dictatorship in Argentina, more than 30 000 activists and working class fighters were killed by the state, referred to as 'the disappeared' because US imperialism, which backed the dictatorship, ensured that many of the bodies were buried in mass graves and many were just never found.
 
In these days of deepening crisis of world capitalism, when their rule is coming under increasing threat, here we have the capitalist state and imperialism, wanting to revert to the old methods of the dictatorship.
 
Although we have our differences with the Democracia Obrera and the FLTI, they are still an organization which is part of the fight against the capitalist system. They must be defended against the gangster attacks of the capitalist state.
 
We call on the broader working class movement to rally to the defence of the Democracia Obrera.
 

Down with state attacks on workers organizations!
Forward to working class internationalism!
Out the hands of the bourgeois state from Democracia Obrera and other
organizations of the working class!
Down with the imperialism puppet regime of Fernandes-Kirchner!
