Pot meet kettle. As a senator, a vice president, and president, Joe Biden has been a WAR CRIMINAL of the highest order.

From his role as a senator backing the wars of aggression the U.S. launched against Afghanistan and Iraq, the massive bombing of civilians, use of chemical weapons, collective punishment, targeting of ambulances and hospitals, the unspeakable torture in Abu Ghraib, Guantánamo, Bagram, and secret CIA black sites...

To his role as a vice president under Obama, carrying out a terrorist campaign of drone warfare in seven countries, bombing Libya and taking out the Libyan leader Gaddafi, and supporting Israel’s genocidal slaughter of the Palestinian people...

To his current role as president, backing Saudi Arabia's destruction of Yemen which has killed over 250,000 children and forced 4 million people from their homes...

When it comes to war crimes and crimes against humanity, the U.S. is number 1. No U.S. ruler, least of all Joe Biden, has any right whatsoever to self-righteously denounce the war crimes of others. Even worse, this naked hypocrisy is in the service of building up the U.S. as the “leader of the free world” so that they can carry out MORE war crimes, and disguise it as “spreading democracy.” 

Don’t buy into the BULLSHIT!

Of course, this act of imperialist aggression by Russia deserves to be condemned. But especially for people residing in this country—which, again, by far holds the record for such acts of aggression—it is a matter of basic principle and profound importance not to be echoing the positions and serving the aims of “our” imperialists, and instead to be making very clear our opposition to the aims and actions of these (U.S.) imperialists, who are using opposition to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, not as a way of promoting “peace,” or “the right of nations to self-determination,” but as means of furthering U.S. imperialist interests, in opposition to the rival Russian imperialists.

We are at a turning point in history. The capitalist-imperialist system is a horror for billions of people here and around the world and threatening the very fabric of life on earth. Now the election of fascist Trump poses even more extreme dangers for humanity—and underscores the total illegitimacy of this system, and the urgent need for a radically different system.

The website Revcom.us follows the revolutionary leadership of Bob Avakian (BA), the author of the new communism. Bob Avakian has scientifically analyzed that we are in a rare time when an actual revolution has become more possible in the U.S. He’s charted a strategy for making that revolution, and laid out a sweeping vision and concrete blueprint for “what comes next” in the Constitution for the New Socialist Republic in North America.

Revcom.us projects BA’s voice, leadership, and vision throughout society. It posts his timely leadership for the revcoms (revolutionary communists) and the whole movement for revolution, including his social media posts, and curates his whole body of work. 

Our website applies the scientific approach BA has developed to analyze major events in society and the world—why they are happening, how they relate to each other, how all this relates to the system we live under, where people's interests lie, how revolution is in fact the solution to all this, and what the goals of that revolution are.

Revcom.us acts as a guiding and connecting hub for the revcom movement nationwide: showing what’s being done, digging into what’s right and what’s wrong, and rapidly learning—and recruiting new people into what has to be a rapidly growing force. As part of this, revcom.us feature and promotes the weekly The RNL—Revolution, Nothing Less!—Show on YouTube.com. 

Put it this way: there will be no revolution unless this website not only “keeps going” but rises to a whole different level!

DONATE NOW to revcom.us and get with BA and the revcoms!
