  Comrade Shan: An Unrepentant Communist   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
As the leader of the CTUF (Ceylon Trade Union Federation), comrade Shan led the workers in many militant strikes, including the general strike of 1947, the Hartal (general strike) of 1953, the transport strike in 1955.
He played a vital role in rallying and uniting the genuine Maoist parties and organizations of the world in order to accomplish the decisive task of rebuilding the International Communist Movement based on the defence and application of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism.
As a result of his efforts, the CCP (Maoist) had the honour of becoming a founding member of the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement, which was formed in 1984.

 Declaration of the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement (RIM)
Communists are resolute opponents of imperialist war and must mobilise and lead the masses in the fight against preparations for a third world war which would be the greatest crime committed in the history of mankind.
Communists must take into account the possibility that many of these countries may be dragged into the imperialist war according to the position these countries have in relation to the different imperialist blocs.
Communist parties must consider the various concrete situations that might arise in the midst of such an imperialist war and develop their thinking in relation to these situations.

 Insurgency in Nepal -- Thomas A. Marks
The heartland of the early Maoist position was the area straddling either side of the border between the districts of Rolpa and Rukum in the mid-western region.
Though the Maoists themselves did not claim as ‘base areas’ the human terrain they thus were able to dominate, the districts in the mid-western region served that role, as outlined in key ‘people’s war’ documents authored by Mao Tse-tung.
Maoist rhetorical excesses, especially attacks on the RNA, and a bargaining emphasis on broad, often utopian, declarations at the expense of specifics, has led to a situation where the two sides are in danger of talking past each other.

 On the Death  of Comrade Sanmugathasan   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
It was with great grief that the Committee of the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement learned of the death of Comrade N. Sanmugathasan, General Secretary of the Ceylon Communist Party (Maoist) on 8 February at the age of 74 of natural causes.
Comrade Sanmugathasan was one of the first Communist leaders to rally around Mao Tsetung and the Communist Party of China in the great struggle against Khrushchevite revisionism.
We are sure that the Ceylon Communist Party (Maoist) will honour the memory of Comrade Sanmugathasan by carrying forward in deeds the cause to which he dedicated his life.

 [No title]
To meet the responsibilities of leadership, all communist parties based on the ideology of scientific communism have to conduct a struggle against their subversion by the ideology of anarchism, which is revolutionary in its opposition to the capitalist state, and by the ideology of reformism, which is reactionary in its support for the capitalist state.
Whereas the practice of centralism is necessary for communist parties operating under oppressive regimes and in emergency situations, the principle of democratic centralism is essential for communist parties operating in conditions of relative stability and legality.
These parties must be superseded by a united party which is fully multanimous in its democracy, by a party which allows the formation of like-minded collectives, by a party which denies special opportunities to the dominant faction in the leadership to formulate and present its theory and programme.

 Why does Left decry Nepal?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
India's Maoists on a growth spurt - The virulent form of the Marxist movement that earned the label Maoism was derived from the aggressive form of the communist movement pursued by Chinese leader Mao Zedong.
In India, the Maoist movement was known as "Naxalism" because it was born as a radical split-off from existing mainstream communist parties in the village of Naxalbari in northern West Bengal state.
The Maoists had sent a delegate to the PWG's Congress in 2001, and both are members of the Coordination Committee of Maoist Parties and Organizations of South Asia (CCOMPOSA).

 Next Kargil? Prairie Fire in Nepal
In its first direct intervention in the counter-insurgency operations against the Maoists, which were till now being handled exclusively by the Police with the Army's help confined to defusing explosive devices, the Royal Nepal Army (RNA) surrounded the Nuwa village of Rolpa district, where the Maoists are understood to be detaining the abducted policemen.
Meanwhile, the Communist Party of Nepal (United Marxist Leninist) and the Communist Party of Nepal (Unity Centre) have appealed to the Maoists to release the abducted policemen and urged the Government not to use the Army against the Maoists, lest it leads to a civil war.
While the Nepalese Maoists have received ideological guidance from the Maoists groups of Peru, India and a number of other countries, their main sources of material support are the Maoists of India, the Communist Party of North Korea and the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) of Pakistan.

 Red Targets in the ''War on Terrorism'' : LA IMC   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Since 1996, the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) has effectively challenged government control over much of the Nepali countryside, and by some estimates controls one-third of the national territory.
The association was absurd, but in character with the campaign of vilification of the Peruvian Maoists dating back to the late '80s and early '90s, when according to a RAND report it had acquired control over at least a quarter of Peruvian territory, enjoyed widespread support, and stood a good chance of seizing state power.
Rooted in Colombia's Liberal Party of the 1950s and in a Communist Party that gravitated towards Castroism in the '60s, it has an eclectic ideology, but its leadership considers itself Marxist-Leninist and the U.S. government surely regards it as such.

Through friends of his father, a member of the Ceylon Communist Party, Wijeweera successfully applied for a scholarship in the Soviet Union, and in 1960 at the age of seventeen, he went to Moscow to study medicine at Patrice Lumumba University.
Over the next several years, he participated in the pro-Beijing branch of the Ceylon Communist Party, but he was increasingly at odds with party leaders and impatient with its lack of revolutionary purpose.

 Tasks of the Maoist revolutionaries in Sri Lanka
The foremost duty of the Maoist revolutionaries is to forge their conscious and principled unity to rebuild the Ceylon Communist Party –Maoist, on the solid foundations of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism.
A party of a new type, a genuine vanguard revolutionary Maoist Communist Party must be built by destroying a deeply entrenched revisionist- economist past.
The chief subjective factor, however, has been the inability to forge a vanguard of genuine Maoist revolutionaries to undertake the task of rebuilding the party.

The imperialist country parties of the RIM are all revisionist, not just the Co-RIM, because none of them draw the line against parasitism in practice, by recognizing the overall parasitic nature of the imperialist countries.
It is not proletarian to split the vanguard party or its allies on the basis of homosexuality or anything else that is not truly cardinal.

Our party declares with pride that it is the heir of the best revolutionary traditions and rebellions against tradition's chains by the sons and daughters of the working class and the oppressed masses of Iran.
This party is the vanguard of the proletariat of Iran but belongs to all the toilers and oppressed peoples of Iran and unites and leads them in their common fight against all their suffering.
As the foundation of the communist party is the beginning of a new era in our great struggle, the launching of the People's War in Iran ushers in a new era in our struggle to smash the old society and build a new one.

 Nepalese Maoists 'entering India'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The Maoists continue to receive political and moral support from their counterparts in other countries, which are like the Nepalese Maoists, members of the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement (RIM), the headquarters of which are believed to be based in the USA.
The Maoists have also been criticising, though not in such strong terms as they criticise India, what they project as the betrayal of the Nepalese Maoists by the present leadership in China.
And there is the fact that the Nepalese Maoists may be getting help from Chinese intelligence in choosing their targets, and the undeniable fact that almost all their arms are of Chinese manufacture, and are brought in over the Nepalese-Chinese border.

 Celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Revolutionary Internationalist Movement --RW/OR ONLINE
The formation of RIM was accomplished only a few short years after a coup in China reversed the gains of Maoist revolution and proceeded on the hell-bent path of restoring capitalism--and trashing the idea of Maoist revolution in the world.
Today, the RIM's accomplishments, and the challenges before it, can be seen right in the immediate situation in Nepal, where the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist), a participating party in the RIM, has led an eight-year-long people's war which is now approaching a struggle for countrywide power.
There are the great changes and dislocations the imperialist system has increasingly brought to the planet--forcing millions from countryside to cities, and even from their homelands to the rich countries where they are viciously exploited and persecuted.

Dramatic and decisive steps have to be taken to build confidence, given the game of low-grade politics that all political parties continue to play.
If such clear and decisive steps are taken with honesty and commitment, the gods, history, the people and all humanity shall rise together to achieve their peace.
All political forces, including the UPFA, the Opposition, across the divide and beyond the seas are on stand to be judged by the people-and that day of judgement is inevitable even as it draws nearer day by day!

This whole idea of putting our hopes and energies into "leaders" who tell us to seek common ground with fascists and religious fanatics is proving every day to be a disaster, and actually serves to de mobilize people.
The Revolutionary Communist Party USA & its youth group the RCYB firmly stand for the uprooting all forms of oppression, including those having to do with sexual orientation.
In addition, whether or not you agree with RCYB's whole vision and programme, it is urgently necessary to act now, send a warning to the fascists & a message of hope to the downpressed people that you won't stand for this shit.

 RIM: Narco-terrorist merchants of death
Known funding: Member organizations are largely financed via revenues from illegal narcotics sales, weapons trafficking, kidnapping, and "peoples' taxes" (i.e., confiscation of land and property, and extortion of payments in theaters of operation).
History: RIM was founded March 12, 1984 at a conference in London called the "Second International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations." LTTE and Sikh organizations participated in the founding conference, and maintain collaboration with RIM, though not formally affiliated.
Member organizations were actively involved in mobilization against American Euro-missile deployments in the early 1980s, and have been instrumental in destabilizations in West Germany and Turkey, via TKP-ML and PKK networks.
