In the South of the continent, the mineworkers of Lonmin of Marikana, an fighting example for the workers of the world

The imperialist bosses, the trecherous union bureucracy of the ANC together with the police of Zuma and the murder government

THEY KILL THE MINE WORKER AND  FULLY SHOOT THEIR WOMEN AND CHILDREN

FROM SOUTH AFRICA: A MOTION TO THE WORKER MOVEMENT IN THE ENTIRE WORLD...

The worker of Marikana does not give up and declare:

We do not recognize the treators of NUM! We neither accept more verse nor to keep dying of hunger!…
We got into the fight for our women and our children, and now for our deaths:

R12.500, OR WE HILL THE MANAGERS!

In Asturias of the Spanish State, the miners got into the fight at the war cry of: “if this is not fix, war,war”. While their women did it with an example class instint agaisnt the monarchy and the governemnt saying “if our sons are in hunger, yours will bleed”.

The bourgoisie responded with a genocide in Syria, where the murderous Al Assad and theirnoccupation troops on behalf od NATO and the imperialist powers killed mecyless, making the worker neighbours of Aleppo, Hims and Damascus in ruins. The masses are still resisting.  If this slaughter can be carried on is because the Free Syrian Army (FSA) call to surrenderd and disarm the revolutioanry mases, because the Stalisnim with the Kurdish  CP, leading, sell oput the resistance because the former Trotskysi and all the reformist leadership gathered in the World Social Forum have put some of them a siege of slanders and others were silence agsint the Syrian workers and people.
Once again, the color working class, vanguard of the world working class, together with the calss brothers and sisters of North of Africa and Middle Eastm of the slavered China, of Greece, of the Spanish State, with their fight of increase of wages show the  path of how to fight agsint the war declared by all the capitalist and their governments.

30.000 workers of the Lonmin mine went into the fight.  The leaders of COSATU, together with the private security of the company attacked the strikers. They defended themselves and set up a strike picket that in a tough resistance make the murders of the security forces and the butcher strike breaker of COSATU in their place.
The response of the morder bosses, their government and their police did not wait.  More than 34 strikers were killed by the ANC polcie while there were 78 wounded and dozens and dozens were detained.  The bodies of the wounded show that they were crashed on their head by police trucks.
However, the Lonmin mineworkers did not give up.  With their massive strike of 3000 worklers armed with sticks and direct democracy shake with their terrify fight in the black continent… thousand times repressed by the imperialist pirates.
There, as the rest of the world, the transnational and the imperialism have launched a brutal war to the workers. As in Syria, as the workers of Suzuki in Indian and as the tough fights of the Chilean workers and youth, the Lonmin mine workers fight.
The exploiters are merciless with the workers. This is the reason that today they do not have it, in their own defense, in defense of their own children, their dignity and wages these thousands of revolutionary workers that  represent millions of exploited ones that carry on their back with centuries of repression and oppression. 
Zuma, SA president members of the ANC, came out within the SACP, that did not hesitate to stay together with the Apartheid,and today to be continuity of this regime, that kill the Lonmin workers.  It has injailed more than 260 workers. Today they are released thank to the tough fight and picket and for the honor earn in front of the the eyes of the working class.

The mine is surrender of police forces.  While the bureucrats of COSATU seek to negotiate and uprise the strike. The workers are on one trench.  They fight for all, giving a example of how to fight, agaisnt this reformist leadership who are seeking to put the workers down in the negotiation table invented by the institutions of the governments, regimes and boss states.
The police, thirst of blood, prepares once the pact is negotiated btween the COSATU bureucrats and the capitalist, to ge into to make a bloodshed.

Despite everything, the workers do not give up.  It is more worth it to die than to keep living being humiliated and deepin the misery of this iname system.  The traitors of the reformist leadership have sieged them. They as servatns of the Stalisnist, at the service of the imperialist mines have not even got close to the mine and even less make a call to the world working class to stand up in support with their class brothers and sisters.  They have not called to upsurge the colour workers of USA, as they did not do it with the inmigrant workers who are being attcked in Europe.  Nothing. Silece and isolation.  They only call for a peacefull demostration to the ANC South African parliament to put pressure and get food… this is a real treason to the workers that in mine fight heroically.

As never before today it is on the agenda the setting up a big Fight Committee of all the workers of Southern Africa there where workers are fighting, side by side with the strike committee of the miners of Lonmin.
All the currents of Africa who claim representing the working class, submitted to the social-imperialist parties of Europe and USA, turn the blind eye. They have all assisted to the meetings of the World Social Forum in Zimbabwe and Zambia. But they haven’t assisted to the strike committee of Marikana to fight against transnationals. There are the real representatives of the working class and their historical needs; in the World Social Forum are the traitors of the proletariat.

Only worker delegates of the most important cities of Zimbabwe, taken the solidarity of their comrades, were in the strike committee of Marikana.  They are the colour revolutionary workers of the Worker Internationalist League (WIL) of Zimbabwe, member of the FLTI.

A solidarity committee of the miners of Marikana in Cape Town, launched by WIVL, did not call to send delegates to the strike committee of Lonmin and they did not even dare to call for a revolutionary general strike to overthrow the killer governmen of Zuma and in this way the Lonmin worker win.  If they win, the working class of the entire South of Africa will wil.
They are, as WIVL, renegades of Trotskyism that have used the slogan of “rank and file soldier committees” and “self defense committees” for peace times and they hide it under the ground at times, as now, of class struggle.
Those social democrats launched a a peacefull demostration to the ANC South African parliament to put pressure and to get food… this is a real treason to the workers that in mine fight heroically.

However, there in Marikana, South Africa, as in Alleppo streets in Syria fighting as a single fist together with the most exploited workers of the working class wave the clean banners of the 4th International.
There the Trotskyists of the FLTI fight.
However, in the opposite barricade, in this arena where we defend the interest of the boss, the former Trotskyist support the Stalinist and the bureaucracy of COSATU, as they did before with the CP in Greece.  The Stalinist hit the workers who were trying to burn the parliament- and they continue doing the Castro brithers, these new riches that together with Obama are restoring the Capitalism in Cuba.

From the tired soil of uprising Marikana, a new revolutionary tendency, a new cry war taken from the most deepen ear of the colour workingc lass in South Africa, it is sounding all around the planet: R 12.500 OR WE KILL THE MANAGEMENT!
The motion is announced.  The world working class must take this fight in their hands if they do not want to be smashed by the capitalist and their agents within the worker movement.  Long live the fight of the worker of Marikana! If this is not fixed, so war, war, war… of the workers agaisnt their executioner! World worker, stand up!
