In Regard to the Two Israeli Embassy People Killed in Washington, D.C.

In regard to the two Israeli embassy people killed in Washington, D.C., the following should be very clear:

This is definitely not a good thing, not a positive act, and in fact it is very harmful in a number of ways.

This includes the way in which it is being seized on to slander opposition to the very real genocidal ethnic cleansing that Israel is continuing to carry out against the Palestinian people—slaughtering and starving many tens of thousands of people in Gaza, including nearly 20 thousand children (while also escalating atrocities against Palestinians in the West Bank). It is a blatant and despicable lie that this negative act (against people working at Israel’s embassy in Washington, D.C.) is evidence that any opposition to the genocide being carried out by Israel is “anti-Semitic.” This lie is being aggressively spread by the U.S. government and the dominant media (“mainstream” as well as fascist), along with the Israeli government and its supporters, in order to slanderously brand any opposition to the genocide being carried out by Israel as “anti-Semitic”—and once again to declare “beyond the pale” all legitimate and necessary opposition to this very real, ongoing genocide. 

Facts are facts, and truth is truth—and an abundance of all-too-real facts makes undeniably clear the truth that Israel is carrying out a horrific genocidal ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people. No lies and distortions, by any government authority or media (or anyone else), can change these terrible facts and this terrible truth.

The answer to this genocide—and what is urgently necessary, in contrast to the harmful action that was carried out against two Israeli embassy staff people—is nonviolent but massive and unrelenting protest and resistance against this genocide, protest and resistance which must not give in to slander and intimidation from government authorities (U.S. and Israeli), and the dominant media, but must be steadfast and determined in opposition to this horrific genocide, and its continuing support by the U.S. government—including the open declaration and moves now by the Trump fascist regime, along with the genocidal Israeli regime, to forcefully remove the Palestinian people from their home in Gaza (and ultimately from Palestine as a whole).

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!
