 Increasingly, it is more intense the bombing of Al-Assad against the resistance in Aleppo

Hour to hour, minute by minute, tension is growing. The bombings increase in frequency and intensity. Helicopters download their murderous load, while the Mig-21s do the same with their artillery.

There are entire neighborhoods without electricity. Water is very scarce. There is virtually no food. The situation in the area is very exasperating. However this does not undermine the fighting morale of the people.

We have heard that the Kurdish Communist Party is dividing the military front of the exploited in all Kurdish areas. One of its wings says that it is calling the Kurdish combatants to lay down their arms to negotiate a "peaceful coexistence" with Al-Assad in exchange for him and his army not bombing the Kurdish area. At the same time, the other wing of the KCP, has subordinated openly to the SNC and the "Free Syrian Army".
There is not much to demystify here; You will notice the hand of the Kurdish bourgeoisie behind all this. Now, everyone is aware, and mainly the bourgeoisie, that the territorial dual power that has emerged in the dynamics of the fighting against Al-Assad, can also begin slaughtering to the  Kurdish bosses. That is why the have launched this operation to try to demoralize the militias and subordinate them to one or the other fraction of the bourgeoisie, all agents in the service of the dominant powers. But let's see if they can achieve it.
Meanwhile, the bourgeoisie and the dictator make dozens of traps to advance in their continuous massacre against the insurgent masses: one of the most serious was that suffered yesterday when a Russian Twitterer posing as a senior official of the Government of Putin, gave the information that Al-Assad had died. When they heard this news (that turned out to be false), the masses went to celebrate pulling shots in the air and when nobody expected... the aircraft appeared on the horizon. A bunch of bombs fell on our heads. Again dozens of dead.
This systematic and perpetual terror is being used by a sector of the bourgeoisie to make dent in a population. Sometimes you hear comments of the type: "if we stop the fight maybe Bashar won’t download more bombs". This is a policy conceived by the millimeter by the bosses who support the SNC and want the masses to subordinate to it.
But above all these developments, the fact is that the army of Al-Assad cannot enter Aleppo. We suffered casualties, hunger, fear and much anguish and pain, however the line of this resistance is each time more impenetrable for Assad and his occupation troops. Aleppo is a fortress in the hands of the resistance of the masses. Block to block, metro by metro, they fight every day driving the army away. They know that in the melee Assd’s troops will not enter. They have 25,000 men stationed in the vicinity of Aleppo, but 100 of them do not make one of the combatants fighting sustained by all the exploited people of Syria. Exactly there the fearsome force of resistance lies.
This the hardest steel barrier is what they want to break. That is why they invent all those cowardly attempts. We'll see what happens and how the facts are still sparking. However, more than ever to have a perspective of triumph we need of the support and effective solidarity that can provide us the labor organizations in the world. To all these we say not to leave alone the Syria masses, there is being defined in large part the struggle of the workers of the North Africa and Middle East.
Remember: "not one step back, we’ll fight to up to the last drop of blood is shed ". So they encourage each other in the battlefront and in the very important rearguard, where they care for the wounded and ensure a daily ration of food.

A hug for everyone.
