Imperialist Cleansing
The semantic invention of the formula "ehtnic cleansing" has allowed the
imperialists to mount all kinds of provocations, manipulate reality,
provoke confrontations, create "made in the CIA" guerrilla movements,
intoxicate public opinion, repeating slogans to the point of saturation
in the way the Nazis did, concoct images, and to blame their own
massacres on a previously demonised enemy, particularly in the Balkans.
All this in order to push foward their imperialist war of aggression and
extermination against nations because of economic, strategic or
political reasons which they try to cover up in every way.
In order not to go on at too much length, we will pick out just five of
the imperialist nations which are taking part in the incalculable crimes
against Yugoslavia, including Kosovo: The USA, Britain, Germany, France
and Spain. Historically, these are five good examples, which have
carried out the most horible racist crimes known to history.
The more racist and criminal they have been, the more hypocrisy they
show. Each one of these powers has carried out some of the greatest
genocides committed in the whole of history, which constitute the
greatest examples of "ethnic cleansing" that humanity has ever
undergone. The consquences of the blood cleansing of the Inquisition,
with its tortures, crimes, robbery and mass expulsions of Jews and
Arabs, are still felt today. But ethnic cleansing is, and has always
been, an excuse, a racist ideological fabrication in order to achieve
economic ends, fundamentally dedicated to wars, to new genocides, and
new conquests.
The conquest of the Americas and the extermination of the native
population was not financed by the jewels of Queen Isabel, but rather
through the gold stolen from the Jews by the Catholic Kings, in the same
way that the jewelery and gold teeth of the Jews of the Holocaust went
to pay for the fuel for the "Panzers" and the airforce of Hitlers army.
The history of the British empire is the history of a sustained genocide
which was carried out over centuries against races which they considered
to be inferior to themselves. And the USA and human rights? There is not
a single human right in that country which is not vilated on a massive
scale every day, above all against American Indians, Blacks and Latin
Americans. The Death Rows in the gringo jails are a cruel and flagrant
example of "ethnic cleansing" through the most convenient method after
long years of physical and psychological torture.
What does Spain carry out every day in the Straits of Gibraltar if not
imperialist tasks of "ethnic cleanising" on behalf of the old racist,
colonialist and imperialist Europe.
And what has Spain been doing since the year of 1936 in the Basque
Country torturing, imprisoning and shooting or assassinating the sons
and daughters of the Basque people for the sole reason that they want
freedom and independence? Today there are more than 800 Basque political
prisoners in Spanish jails, some having already served more than 20
years, with the majority being at the other end of the peninsular, in
inuman conditions while their families and friends are obliged to make
long and exhausting journeys in order to visit them.
Is this not ethnic cleansing and the violation of all human rights and
all the rights of a people?
Why does Spain support the Kosovar "guerrilla" created by the CIA and
well known in Eastern Europe and the Middle East as a group of drug
dealers and white slavery? (see the Spanish magazine, Tiempo,
of February 23, 1999).
Recently very reliable Algerian sources of information claimed that
Afghan Talibans are providing military and religious instructors as well
as arms supplies to the "guerrilla" of Kosovo, adding (and this is
confirmed by numerous correspondents of the European press) that Albania
has been converted into an international centre of islamic
fundamentalism, drug and vice mafias and the traffic of armsin exchange
for heroin, all with the blessing of the yankees and their Nato.
Who raised their voice against the massive crimes of the Algerian
military junta which is supported by the yankees and the French, when it
drowned the democratic process in blood in 1991, provoking a long, dirty
and cruel war which has cost more than 100,000 lives and more than
20,000 disappeared? Who said anything when just a few days ago they
withdrew all the candidates in the presidential elections, and the
military junta's candidate was elected "unanimously" in a new and
blatant electoral fraud? Of course, since Algerian oil and gas have been
securedfor Europe through a transational which holds 80 per cent ofthe
stake in the Algerian companies which exploit this resource, the
imperialists have nothing to fear. Besids, Algeria is complying with the
IMF and social and political cleansing in the countryside, in order to
facilitate cheap labour power needed by future industries.
In this area, the history of France, linked to massacres in Algeria and
in all the dominions and colonies which it has had, is as bad as any.
And we won't mention anything about the racist past and present of the
other members of this distinguished international fascist club known as
Nato.
For its part, the Turkish airforce, which belongs to Nato, is continuing
inthese days to bombard Kurdish refugee camps in those zones through
which the yankee-German oil and gas pipeline, which comes from Baku,
will pass, while the ground forces are systemmatically completing the
ethnic and political cleansing of the Kurds with the support and the
apllause of the US and Nato.
These imperialists, when they had the Balkans - an area which is so well
appreciated by the yankees and the Germans because of its economic and
military strategic position - within their reach at the end of the
1980s, plotted and used all means in order to destabilise, break up and
divide the Yugoslav Federation, which was an example of peaceful co-
existence of different cultures and ethnic and religious groups.
They employed all the old, well-known tactics, manipulations and
provocations used by the Nato powers in their long colonialist and
imperialist histories, which the advantage this time of moving together
under the single and unquestionable command of the yankee imperialists,
masters of these criminal and genocidal methods. The ones who are really
responsible for carrying out ethnic cleansing in the Balkans are the USA
and Nato. The greatest cleansing they have carried out, and which they
are continuing with, is the one directed against the Serbs, and they
have carried out other criminal acts of cleansing, including the one
being carried out at this time against the people of Kosovo. With the
bombings, they are razing Kosovo to the ground, with the aim of
provoking a mass exodus in terrible conditions in order then to pass off
the images of their own crimes as an act of "ethnic cleanising" by the
Serbs.
But they have unmasked themselves, bombarding with missiles five
Kosovar-Albanian columns which did not want to stay in Albania and which
were returning to Yugoslavia. The Kosovar-Albanians are just as much
victims of the USA and Nato as the Serbs. And the Kosovar "guerrilla",
formed by the CIA and other services with the Albanian mafia involved in
drug trafficking and white slavery, have from the first day been
the instrument of the USA and Nato. More than one European newspaper and
magazine have denounced them, giving all kinds of evidence. Interpol has
admitted that the "Albanians from Kosovo who make up the "guerrilla"
control the greaterpart of the heroin trade - approximately 80 per cent
- in Swutzerland, Austria, Germany, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Norway,
Poland and Belgium." This is the reality, which for certain contains
nothing new, as this is what imperialism has been doing all over the
world from the moment it emerged.
In this affair no-one is innocent: Clinton, Blair, Schroeder, D'Alema,
Jospin, Aznar, Clark and their errand boy Solana, etc ... know full well
what is happening over there since they occipued Albania last year and
isolated it from the world for some months.
And they know very well that they have invented and are directing the
third way: that of those who are ambiguous, neutral, the double-
crossers, in short those who have as their slogan: "Neither Nato nor
Milosevic! They constitute the imperialists rearguard, those who cover
for their criminal aggression, all in "good faith". This third way is
committing a war crimes as the accomplice of imperialist aggression when
they take as genuine the false argument about "ethnic cleansing",
fabricated by the aggressors in order to justify their constant 24 hours
a day war crimes before global public opinion. And those who allow
themselves to be pulled by this third way ought to think about the
damage that they are doing to the anti-imperialist cause and the benefit
they are giving to the criminal policies of these monsters.
48 hours ago the USA-Nato fascist international said that "this war will
be a long, difficult and dirty war."
When an international people's tribunal judges them, none of them will
be able to claim ignorance, nor that they "had to obey". In each case,
they have already secured their place in history on the side of the
great tyranies and genocides.
Hypocritical criminals who spout on about "ethnic cleansing" while they
launched tons and tons of bombs and missiles armed with depleted, but
highly radio-active uranium against people who will not surrender to
their imperial designs, and also against people they say they are going
to liberate!
Is the death of millions of children in the third world through lack of
food, medicines, through imperialist embargoes and aggression not the
greatest ethnic cleansing in the history of humanity?
They are the men of war, responsible for massive genocides and all acts
of ethnic, political and social cleansing that there have been and which
there are today all over the world since the start of the capitalist
system and above all since the development of imperialism.
There is only one guilty party: imperialism.
There is only one fundamental task: to get rid of it.
There are no third ways! The third way is the shield of imperialism!
