Posted on by Red Youth Red Youth

An appeal from the Communist Party of Nepal, Marxist-Leninist:

“Dear Comrades,

As you already know, we are in trouble because of the huge earthquakes of 25 April, 26 April and 12 May 2015. During these disasters 8500 people died and thousands are missing yet. Thousands of people are injured and hospitalized. More than 500,000 houses are damaged. Millions of people have been displaced, traumatised, and left without basic resources.

Now, earthquake victims seek relief of food, clothes and tents which the people of the accessible zone has got for short period but the people from the remote have got only a few. They seek temporary shelter as the rainy season is coming immediately. So, SHED Nepal is making temporary accomodation for the victims, joining with the CPN(ML) in every possible way in the remote villages. SHED needs funds to buy materials, tools, and meals for the volunteers.

Society for Health and Environment Development (SHED) Nepal is a non-profit, non-governmental organization. It is led by Laxmi Koirala Pokhrel to whom the Government of Nepal has appointed as the Board Member of the Social Welfare Council which is an semi-independent organ of the Government (http://www.swc.org.np). She is an active party worker as the Treasures of the All Nepal Progressive Women’s Association the women’s wing of the CPN (ML) as well.

I would like to request your aid in raising funds for SHED Nepal to provide relief to the victims.

Secretary, International Department

Communist Party of Nepal (Marxist-Leninist)”

There Will Be No Saudi Inspection Of This Ship! – A message from the “Iran Shahed” in the Gulf of Aden

Posted on by Red Youth Red Youth

We have reproduced below a message from Caleb Maupin, journalist and comrade from Fight Imperialism Stand Together who is currently onboard the Iran Shahed, delivering aid to Yemen in the wake of Saudi brutality:

The Iran Shahed is bound for the port of Al Hudaydah in Yemen
The Iran Shahed is bound for the port of Al Hudaydah in Yemen

“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is mercilessly slaughtering people in Yemen, has absolutely no right to inspect this vessel. Neither does the United States of America or Israel. The Iranian government has made that absolutely clear, and all of us in the delegation of peace activists from Germany, France, and the United States absolutely agree
with this decision.

Red Youth give message of solidarity to RKU

Posted on by Red Youth Red Youth

This month Comrade Ed from Red Youth attended the Congress of the RKU (Revolutionary Communist Youth) and delivered the following fraternal address:

Greetings Comrades, it is wonderful to be amongst fellow Marxist-Leninist youth!

First of all please let me extend my thanks to the executive committee of RKU for inviting Red Youth to this Congress and for the hospitality and ongoing friendship fostered between ourselves over the last five years.

Comrades, it was not so very long ago that the greatest catastrophe to befall civilisation took place – the dismemberment of the USSR and the collapse of a large number of the socialist countries. Although it was not so very long ago, many of us, myself included were just coming into the world. Our generation, a generation of post-Soviet youth, was born into an epoch of reaction, the weakening of the socialist movement and a period of great depression amongst the ranks of the revolutionaries. It has been a period of intensified imperialist aggression, a period whereby imperialism has looked to increase its stranglehold upon the planet, and enslave the youth of the oppressed countries. It was only natural that once our generation came to maturity, many of us would rebel against imperialism, and would seek answers to the problems which capitalism puts before the youth of the entire planet. The answers to our questions can only be found in the study of our society and its economic relations; the answers can only be uncovered through our application of science to the study of society, our method is Marxism-Leninism.

Posted on by Red Youth Red Youth

IMG_2550-0Following the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union, in August 1941, after enduring great privation and destruction at the hands of the invaders, the Soviet people checked the German advance, with the heroic battles of Leningrad, Moscow, and Stalingrad, following which, the German Fascist armies were put to flight.

Celebrate Soviet Victory over Fascism!

Posted on by Red Youth Red Youth

Today – 9 May 2015 – marks the 70th Anniversary of the victory of the Soviet Union over Nazi German Fascism; when the red flag was raised over the Reichstag by the victorious Red Army, while Adolf Hitler committed suicide in his bunker in Berlin.

These are achievements of Socialism that we can and should all celebrate. Achievements that still show us that workers can vanquish the darkest armies of imperialism and build a bright socialist future based upon cooperation, and ending forever the exploitation of man by man and nation by nation.

Sick of the election campaign already? Join the struggle!

An editorial by one of our younger Red Youth members. As the following shows, with Marxism to enlighten them, even school students are capable of understanding those basic truths about the present economic system that somehow seem to elude whole battalions of erudite professors.

Red Youth and CPGB-ML members gather before the May Day march, 1 May 2015

Are you tired of the same old lies and bound-to-be-broken promises we are being subjected to during this showcase of ‘western democracy’? Are you sick of the pitiful facade that the mainstream parties are kindly putting on for us in order to try and convince the country they are the best party to do the job of hiding the real cause of the financial crisis: capitalism? You’re not the only one.

However, as the general election approaches in Britain, more and more people seem to be falling for the Labour party’s patronising ‘For the people’ rhetoric. It seems that an awful lot of people have been hoodwinked into thinking that a vote for Labour is a progressive vote, while a vote for the Tories is a vote for more austerity and privatisation. That idea is partially correct, of course – the Tories will bring more austerity and privatisation.

But the key point for us to understand is that so will a vote for any of the main capitalist parties, Labour included, because they all serve the same class and follow the same one-point programme: to preserve the profits of the capitalists and the system of capitalist exploitation at all costs! The only real way the parties differ is in the extent to which they hide their true intentions and how they present themselves to the people.
