[EE.UU.] EL FSP APOYA EL LLAMADO DE LA TPR Y EL FIT A VOTAR EN BLANCO EN EL PRÓXIMO BALLOTAGE PRESIDENCIAL DE ARGENTINA

The Freedom Socialist Party supports the call by Argentine leftists to leave ballots blank in the upcoming run-off election for the country’s next president

On Sunday, November 22, 2015, voters will go to the polls to decide who will become the next president of Argentina. It is a run-off race between Daniel Scioli, the out-going vice president in President Cristina Kirchner’s administration and rightwinger Mauricio Macri, the outgoing mayor of Buenos Aires and son of a wealthy construction magnate.

The differences between these candidates are similar to those between the Democrats and the Republicans in the U.S. in that one is more rightwing than the other but neither of them have anything to offer the poor and working class and both serve the interests of the ruling class.

Macri advocates free capitalist development as the solution to Argentina’s woes, including an anticipated negative growth rate for the economy next year. Scioli says he will uphold Kirchnerism, a left-sounding populism that promises much and delivers little to the working class.

Neither of these candidates represents the interests of the vast majority of Argentines who lived through the 2001-2002 economic crises, one of the worst ever in our hemisphere. The working class has yet to recover from this debacle and neither of the capitalist parties in this race offer any hope of solving the current crisis.

For these reasons, the Freedom Socialist Party (FSP) supports the call to voters by Tendencia Piquetera Revolucionaria (TPR), the Frente Izquierda de los Trabajadores (FIT) and other socialists in Argentina to leave their ballots blank as a form of protest and because it is much better than voting against one’s own interests. When there is no anti-capitalist candidate to support in U.S. elections, the Freedom Socialist Party urges voters in our country to do the same.

Next year, the U.S election will undoubtedly come down to Hillary Clinton for the Democrats and one of the rightwing, anti-immigrant neoliberals for the Republicans. There will probably be one or two socialist candidates for president who will be able to get on a few state ballots, but in states without a socialist or anti-capitalist candidate, we will recommend that voters leave their ballots blank, just as TPR is doing now. It is better to take this path than to vote for what you don’t want and to get it!

CHARLA-DEBATE CON EL SDH Y CHRISTIAN ARMENTEROS SOBRE EL ATENTADO EN TURQUÍA Y LOS BOMBARDEOS EN SIRIA

[EE.UU] BLOOMBERG: "BERNIE SANDERS ISN'T A SOCIALIST ENOUGH FOR MANY SOCIALISTS" (13/10)

http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2015-10-13/bernie-sanders-isn-t-socialist-enough-for-many-socialists

“He isn’t an anti-capitalist! He is for reforming capitalism, not changing capitalism. He is really a lot closer in ideology to Hillary Clinton than he is to me,” said Stephen Durham, the 2012 presidential nominee of the Freedom Socialist Party. “His is the politics of a lesser evil among some very bad choices.”

[EEUU] FSP: "BERNIE SANDERS' BID FOR PRESIDENT: WHAT WOULD EUGENE DEBS THINK?"

http://www.socialism.com/drupal-6.8/statements/bernie-sanders-bid-president-what-would-eugene-debs-think

It’s clear why fed-up voters are attracted to Bernie Sanders. He rails against the billionaires and calls for a U.S. political revolution. Who doesn’t want to end the rule of banksters and CEOs? Who doesn’t want to stop the corporate harvesting of all things profitable at the expense of people and the planet? Who doesn’t want to hear the needs of working people promoted for a change?

[YEMEN] DECLARACIÓN CONJUNTA DEL SDH Y LA TPR: ¡ABAJO LA INVASIÓN IMPERIALISTA A YEMEN!

¡Abajo la invasión imperialista a Yemen!

¡Tiranos sauditas, quiten sus manos de Yemen! ¡Fuera de Turquía de la Liga Árabe!

Barack Obama, Salman bin Abdul Aziz

Desde el 23 de marzo, la Liga Árabe y Estados Unidos están desarrollando una agresión imperialista a Yemen. Mientras Obama protege a la policía asesina de EE.UU. contra el movimiento Black Lives Matter, interviene en Medio Oriente matando al pueblo, en defensa de los intereses del imperialismo. La Liga, que está formada por diez países liderados por Arabia Saudita, continúa con los bombardeos sobre este país. Hasta ahora, más de 2.000 civiles fueron asesinados y decenas de miles sufrieron heridas en estos ataques. Cientos de miles yemeníes se convirtieron en refugiados en su propio país. Millones de yemeníes se ven privados de alimentos básicos, agua potable y servicios de salud. La débil infraestructura de Yemen está siendo devastada por aviones de guerra saudíes; los aeropuertos, puentes y unidades de producción están en la mira. El futuro del pueblo yemení está siendo robado.

[YEMEN] SDH - TPR: JOINT STATEMENT - STOP IMPERIALIST INVASION TO YEMEN!

Stop imperialist invasion to Yemen! 

Saudi Tyrants, Keep Your Hands Off Yemen! Out Turkey of Arab Coalition!

Barack Obama, Salman bin Abdul Aziz

Since March 23, the Arab Coalition and the United States of America are developing an imperialist aggression to Yemen. While Obama is protecting the murderous police in USA against Black Lives Matter movement, he intervenes in Middle East killing the people in defense of the imperialist interest. The coalition which is consisted of ten countries with the leadership of Saudi Arabia; is going on bombing this country. Until now; more than 2 thousand civilian died and tens of thousands got hurt in these attacks. Hundreds of thousands Yemeni became refugee in their own country. Millions of Yemeni is deprived from staple food, clean drinking water and health services. The infrastructure of poor Yemen is being devastated by Saudi warplanes; airports, bridges, units of production are being targeted. The future of Yemen people is being stolen. 

[EE.UU.] FSP: THE CHARLESTON KILLINGS: INDICTMENT OF A RACIST SYSTEM

The Charleston Killings: Indictment of a Racist System

The Freedom Socialist Party joins millions of Americans in expressing our condolences to the families, friends and congregation of those killed in Charleston, South Carolina by white supremacist Dylann Roof. We join with the #BlackLivesMatter and #StandWithCharleston movements in calling for widespread actions to protest these deaths and the forces behind the carnage. 

Mother Emanuel Church: a symbol of Black resistance

Amidst the gunfire at the Charleston church, a young Black girl lay still, playing dead to avoid the carnage. But she couldn’t avoid the racist rants of the white gunman: “You are raping our women and taking over the country.” 

The 22 year-old shooter was merely recycling the ancient arguments of the Klan and Nazis whose ideology he clearly shares in word and deed. Roof was aiming to stop growing protests against racist killer cops who continue to shoot and injure with impunity across the U.S. His words were aimed at inflaming a race war in this country.

They were also meant to destroy all that Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church represents in the struggle against racism and forced servitude. The church was built by Denmark Vesey, a former slave who in 1822 planned the largest slave revolt in U.S. history. He was caught and hung before the rebellion could take place, and the church was burned by a white mob. The history of this revolt was suppressed by wealthy slave owners who ran the nearby slave market. But Vesey’s son rebuilt the church and it became a stop on the Underground Railroad. In the 1960s, it became a center of organizing for civil and labor rights.

[EE.UU.] FSP: "WHY OBAMA AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SEEK TO SHUT DOWN THE BALTIMORE UPRISING"

Why Obama and the Democratic Party seek to shut down the Baltimore uprising

Speaker: Steve Strauss, Freedom Socialist Party

Steve lives in the Baltimore area and took part in the protests against the murder of Freddie Gray by Baltimore cops.

The Democratic Party is leading the way in trying to stop the U.S. movement against rampant police brutality and murder. Their representatives are blaming the victims of police brutality, physically forcing people off the streets, and promoting faith in the capitalist legal system.

Neither Democrats nor Republicans address the real crime: High unemployment, inadequate housing, and lack of quality healthcare in poor Black communities. Working people need funds for social services and jobs, not for an abusive militarized police force!

Racism and police abuse are built into how the capitalist system works. Until that system is replaced by socialism, we need elected civilian review boards that have the power to fire and discipline police. It is long past the time for community control of the police!

FSP - STATEMENT: "IT'S A THUGGISH SYSTEM - FROM BALTIMORE TO BAGHDAD"

The people of Baltimore are not thugs!
It’s a thuggish SYSTEM – from Baltimore to Baghdad!

The people of Baltimore — and the entire country — are justifiably angry at the racist cruelty of those in power and their armed occupying force — the Baltimore police.

It is outrageous that Freddie Gray died in police custody, arrested for the “crime” of running away from the cops, and now the city establishment refuses to make public how he died and who will be held accountable.

The anger did not begin with Gray’s murder. It is a normal response to a system that favors the super-rich, at the immense expense of the poor, and that uses racism to divide us. The fuel of poverty, urban decay, inadequately funded schools, and joblessness was already set. Freddie

Gray’s murder was the spark.

[TPR'S PRESS RELEASE] "ARGENTINE LEFTIST PIQUETEROS BURN AMERICAN FLAG IN US EMBASSY"

TPR’s Press Release

February 27^th, 2015

Argentine leftist piqueteros burn

 American flag in US embassy

Today, February 27th, an Argentine leftist organization (Tendencia Piquetera Revolucionaria) developed a rally in front of US’ embassy in Argentina. It’s leader, Juan Marino, said: “We demand Mamet’s recall to the US immediately, the end of US interference in the court cases related to AMIA’s bombing and Nisman’s murder, and we reject the involvement of the FBI and CIA in the investigation of both crimes. Mamet’s isn’t an ambassador, he is a lobbyist linked to Chevron and other imperialist companies, and he’s in our country to develop a pro-imperialist and putschist orientation, which in our country is embodied by Sergio Massa and Mauricio Macri, right-wing presidential candidates. Cristina Kirchner’s government isnt’ fighting against Mamet but, otherwise, it’s main functionaries have met with him in order to legitimize his presence. They capitulate against putschism. We, the Tendencia Piquetera Revolucionaria, confront with imperialism y demand Mamet’s resignation”.

[ACTO EN LA EMBAJADA DE EEUU] DECLARACIÓN DE SOLIDARIDAD DEL FSP CON EL ACTO DE LA TPR EN LA EMBAJADA DE EEUU CONTRA NOAH MAMET

Declaración de solidaridad del Freedom Socialist Party (FSP) con el acto en la Embajada de EEUU impulsado por la Tendencia Piquetera Revolucionaria (TPR) exigiendo el retiro del embajador Noah Mamet

El Freedom Socialist Party de los EE.UU. se solidariza con la protesta organizada por la TPR en la Embajada de EEUU en Buenos Aires. Apoyamos la demanda de que el embajador Noah Mamet cese inmediatamente de interferir en los asuntos internos de Argentina, reuniéndose con representantes de la oposición de derecha en un esfuerzo por capitalizar la crisis gubernamental, y el pedido de que se vaya de su puesto y vuela a los EE.UU. Esta crisis tiene lugar tras el asesinato de Alberto Nisman, un fiscal argentino y jefe de la investigación del atentado a un centro comunitario judío en 1994 donde murieron 85 personas.

[ACTO EN LA EMBAJADA DE EEUU] FSP SOLIDARITY STATEMENT TO TPR'S RALLY AGAINST NOAH MAMET

FSP Solidarity Statement to the February 27, 2015 TPR rally calling for the recall of U.S. Ambassador Noah Mamet

The Freedom Socialist Party, U.S. stands in solidarity with the protest organized by TPR at the U.S. Embassy in Buenos Aires. We support the demand that U.S. Ambassador Noah Mamet immediately cease interfering in internal Argentine affairs by meeting with representatives of right wing organizations in an effort to capitalize on the current government crisis and that he be recalled to the U.S. This crisis takes place in the wake of the murder of Alberto Nisman, an Argentine state prosecutor and chief investigator of the 1994 bombing of a Jewish community center in which 85 people died.

[ACTO EN LA EMBAJADA DE EEUU] ¡FUERA MAMET! - ¡FUERA ESTADOS UNIDOS DE LA CAUSA AMIA-NISMAN!

Comunicado de Prensa de la TPR

Viernes 27 de febrero de 2015

Noah Mamet: no es un embajador, es un lobbysta y un conspirador

¡FUERA MAMET!

¡Fuera Estados Unidos de la causa AMIA – Nisman!

Acto en la Embajada de EEUU – Viernes 27/02 - 17:30hs

Juan Marino, dirigente de la Tendencia Piquetera Revolucionaria (TPR), declaró: “en el día de hoy impulsaremos un acto en la Embajada de EEUU para rechazar la marcha del #18F y su principal reclamo: la injerencia de Estados Unidos en la causa AMIA-Nisman. Esta exigencia no sólo fue hecha tanto por el Frente Renovador como el PRO, quienes pidieron públicamente la ‘colaboración’ del FBI y la CIA, sino también por la ex mujer de Nisman, la jueza Arroyo Salgado, quien en la propia movilización pidió la intervención en la causa de la Corte Interamericana de Derechos Humanos, un organismo dependiente de la OEA. Lo mismo le planteó al juez Lorenzetti en una reunión privada para que la Corte Suprema de Justicia adhiera. Esto atañe directamente a Mamet porque su vínculo con Arroyo Salgado es tan estrecho e íntimo que, según varias fuentes periodísticas, el nuevo embajador de EEUU participó del velorio de Nisman. Y a este ‘vínculo personal’ se suman las declaraciones del propio vocero de la Casa Blanca John Earnest que dijo que ‘iban a vigilar’ la causa Amia y la causa por la muerte de Nisman. Se trata, por lo tanto, de una campaña pro-imperialista que debe ser rechazada de plano. En función de estos planteos, vamos a ir a la embajada a rechazar la injerencia imperialista, a exigir la renuncia de Noah Mamet y reclamar una reunión con el embajador. Advertimos, en este sentido, que hemos pedido varias reuniones en la embajada para hacerles llegar estos reclamos y no sólo rechazaron reunirse sino que han militarizado la zona contra nuestro acto. Denunciamos, por lo tanto, el despliegue represivo como una provocación contra nuestro acto político y hacemos responsable al embajador Mamet y al gobierno de Cristina por la seguridad personal de nuestra protesta y de quienes participaremos de la misma".
