REVOLUTION #375, February 23, 2015  

...Look, we’ve got this leader, who is one of those rare visionary thinkers and leaders who comes to represent and usher in a whole new phase of things in their given field of expertise. In this case he is ushering in a whole new phase of the communist revolution and a whole new conception of the kind of society and world we need to be building for the benefit of humanity. Think of the role played by a Marx, or a Lenin, or a Mao at earlier stages of history. This is the kind of visionary leader we are talking about.

Clashes Between Reactionary Forces Intensify in Ukraine

For a year, the U.S./Western Europe-backed Ukrainian government has been battling with Russian-backed Ukrainian forces for control of eastern Ukraine, which borders Russia. More than 5,300 have been killed in the fighting since last April. A recent attempt at a cease-fire has, at this moment, only intensified fighting. Rival factions inside Ukraine and respective imperialist backers all claim that they are supporting one or another so-called “democratic uprising” and fighting for the interests of the people. The reality is this is a clash between predators.

For analysis and background behind the war in Ukraine, read an excerpt from article published March 3, 2014, “Ukraine: Not a “Democratic Uprising” but a Clash Between Predators.”

WWW.REVCOM.US/REVOLUTION NEWSPAPER brings alive a scientific analysis of major events in society and the world—why they are happening, how different events and developments relate to each other, how all this relates to the system we live under, where people's interests lie in relation to all this, how revolution is in fact the solution to all this and what the goals of that revolution are, how different viewpoints and programs relate, positively or negatively, to the revolution that is needed, and how people can move, and are moving, to build toward that revolution. Revcom.us/Revolution is the guide, the pivot, the crucial tool in drawing forward, orienting, training, and organizing thousands, and influencing millions—fighting the power, and transforming the people, for revolution—hastening and preparing for the time when we can go for the whole thing, with a real chance to win.
