MILITANT RALLY IN FRONT OF THE SYRIAN EMBASSY IN ARGENTINA

June 6th, 2012

Statement for the mobilization/demonstration to the Syrian embassy in Argentina

From the revolutionary internationalist militias of Libya we salute the public meeting of the Argentinean workers and their mobilization to the embassy of Syria to defeat the carnage carried on by murderous Al-Assad.

In Libya the militia men, students and workers marched and set on fire the Syrian embassy on February in Benghazi while the murderous troops of Al-Assad were slaughtering in Homs. That is why the Syrian embassy closed and the ambassador ran like a rat. We expelled him, as we enjoy taking justice in our own hands giving Qadafy the assassin what he deserved.

From here we organized brigades which fought side by side with the oppressed people of Syria, facing the agent of the ruling powers: Bashar Al-Assad; he was receiving arms from Putin and Hu Jintao and is supported by Chavez, Castro and other Bolivarian governments.

Not only we, the exploited people and militia men of Libya, are letting our martyrs on the streets of Homs, Hama and Deraa and fighting alongside the exploited people of Syria. The Egyptian workers were the first ones in marching over the Syrian embassy while shouting: “Assad you will have the same fate as Muammar (Khadafy)! and “US, NATO, Assad and Hezbollah are the caretakers for guarding the borders of Zionism!”

This is how from the heart of the working class that started the revolution in Northern Africa and Middle East we started breaking the silence imposed by most of the forces who claim to be “left”, “popular”, etc at world level. Since January they are turning the blind eye and have done nothing to support our class brothers and sisters of Syria, allowing Bashar Al-Assad to kill them mercilessly.

But despite them, workers all over the world are breaking the fence mounted against the Syrian masses with the brigades that we are sending from Libya to fight there; with the fighters organized by hundreds in the mosques in Tunisia who are joining the Syrian resistance; with the masses of Hatay in Turkey who supply the needs of the Syrian exploited, refugees as well as fighters that are recovering there; also the US workers and youth who marched in USA against Obama who is Bashar’s boss; from the workers in Lebanon who rebelled supporting the Syrian people, against Hezbollah that supports Al-Assad like the Iranian Ayatollahs.


Lybian militias

That is why we salute this day of fight in Argentina, which matches the call made by workers organizations who recently also met in Tunisia.
It is important, and it’s always timely, to join forces to rebel the world working class in order to stop the imperialist hand that supports its lackey Al-Assad who is slaughtering the oppressed people of Syria.

The road for fighting alongside the Syrian people is already clear. All people need is decision to follow that road. That is why from Tripoli, Benghazi and Misratah, and also from the refugee camps in Turkey and Lebanon in the Syrian borders, we are waiting the adhesions and effective solidarity from all the worker organizations of the world.

Honoring the martyrs, we call all the worker organizations around the world to collect money, medicines and food and send doctors, nurses to the refugee camps and to help the Syrian resistance, and mainly to send international brigades to fight side by side with the Syrian masses and defeat Bashar.

We have to stand up side by side with our brothers and sisters of Syria. They are also slandered by the same ones who affirmed that we, the Lybian workers who gave our lives confronting Qadafy, were servants of imperialism. It is said by those who speaking in the name of workers and “anti-imperialism” guard the “left” pocket of the Wall Street bankers. They are those who like Chavez, sent oil to supply the war machine of Al Assad. How excellent the resolution of the Deraa militias is about transforming in battle-target the firends of fascism, the bolivarian ships containing oil entering the port of Syria to supply the tanks of Al-Assad the killer.

Our struggle in the North of Africa and Middle East is the same fight as that of the workers of USA, Europe, Latin America and the five continents to stop the attack through which the imperialists try to throw over us all the crisis of the capitalist system in bankruptcy.

As it happened in Libya with us, the Syrian exploited have not been armed by any general who claims to be “democratic” that deserted Al Assad’s army but today is hidden in Qatar.
The weapons to defend themselves from the massacre were conquered by the Syrian masses, their children, their  husbands, their relatives passing to the exploited’s side in order to fight Al Assad. They sell their possessions to gain weapons and ammunitions to confront the troops of Bashar the killer. We, the exploited who supply them from Libya, Lebanon, Turkey, Palestine, are doing the same for the heroic resistance fighters in Homs, Deraa and the entire Syria for them to win.
 
We know very well that the only agents of imperialism in the streets of Syria are Al-Assad’s troops; neither the Arab League, the Syrian National Council, the UN nor NATO are confronting Bashar. All the contrary, they are all waiting for Al Assad’s finishing to crush the Syrian masses.


Pancarta de Vorkuta - Arte Revolucionario

As yesterday we saluted and sent our greeting to the demonstration of over 10,000 workers and youth in Washington, today we are with you in Argentina greeting those comrade workers, youth, oppressed, who are resisting alongside the Syrian masses and we take as ours what the Tripoli dockworkers expresed so fairly in their assembly on April 24th: “Today in Libya we need another revolution, and if we have to carry out 10 revolutions, we will do it. And if we need 20 revolutions in Libya and Syria, we will do it too. Either we live well or we die fighting for it. Let it be known by all the managers, bosses and chiefs: we will not rest till we get our demands; and if we have to close the dock preventing the entry and departure of goods, we will do it; and if we have to go out with our riffles to settle accounts with all the bosses, we will also do it. We will not give away our martyrs’ blood.”

Solidarity with the Syrian exploited people!
Long live the Syrian revolution!
Down with Bashar al-Assad!
That the Mediterranean Sea is set on fire! Death to imperialism! Let’s smash Zionism! The Palestinian banner must be placed in its capital: in the Jerusalem recovered by the oppressed rebelling in Maghreb and Middle East!
