THANKS!

Thanks for this article. We must all learn to 'follow the money'. Just like when Obama says over & over that his campaign contributions come from small internet donors. And yet was at a wealthy/corporate fund raiser telling everyone we cling to guns & bibles. O bama has raised millions of dollars from lobbyist, special interest, hedge funds, banks, big pharma, big oil, big media, etc. And still has the audacity to lie to our faces.

Thanks again for this article. -General Strike USA 9/11/08

Propaganda

This article is vicious propaganda. The word International is not a bad word. Nor is there anything wrong with wanting working class unity. This article has a capitalist bias and shows hatred for working class people. Obviously the writer wants working class people to remain as corporate slaves. He doesn't want the working class to unite because then they would revolt against the corporatists/fascists and remove them from power. The writer also knows the war won't end until the working class threatens the profits of the corporate capitalists.

Let's get something straight. Supporting the working class and wanting working class unity doesn't make you a communist. It is the Corporate Capitalists who want a "New World Order" not the communists. Its the corporate capitalists who created the World Trade Organization, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Bank among other global corporatist/fascist institutions. Its the capitalists who promote free trade agreements that drive down wages, destroy human rights, and harm the environment. Its the Corporate Capitalists who seek the destruction of National Sovereignty with their continental mergers like the European Union and their plans for a North American Union. Its the Capitalists who seek to prevent Democracy so they can maintain their control over the government and the economy. Its the Capitalists who seek to prevent equality so they can maintain their systems of hierarchy where the few at the top of the pyramid control everyone beneath them.

There's no such thing as world communism but there is such a thing as world or global capitalism. The Communists are nationalists not globalists. The fact that the Capitalists finance Communist Dictatorships proves nothing since they also finance a much larger number of capitalist dictatorships and capitalist Republics. What this proves is that the Corporate Capitalists control the world and seek to finance different factions so they can control different conflicts and determine the outcomes of those conflicts. Those who want real Democracy are the real enemies of the elites that control the world. So the elites and their puppets run smear campaigns demonizing those who want Democracy including economic democracy(socialism) as communists or terrorists. Just read all the newspapers and you'll see everyone promoting propaganda calling the Socialist president of Venezuela Hugo Chavez a communist, authoritarian, or supporter of terrorists. Venezuela is a very progressive country and the reason is because of strong social movements and working class unity.
