Iran- August 20th, 2018
In the gaps opened by the inter-imperialist disputes for the Iranian oil and gas…
The masses rise against the bloody regime of the Ayatollahs
Since the beginning of the year the Iranian masses have been carrying out massive generalized uprisings in the main cities throughout Iran. They are the oppressed who rise, facing the high cost of living and miserable wages, in the second largest oil producing country in the world and with the second largest gas reserve on the planet.
During the nights, in successive marches, the exploited burn the posters with the images of the Ayatollahs. The war cry is "death to the supreme leader! Death to Khamenei! Death to Rouhani!" They identify the main rulers of that country. These marches clash with the police and face repression. There are already tens of wounded and several dead, at the hands of that bloodthirsty theocratic counterrevolutionary regime.
The Ayatollahs came to power shooting the masses of the Iranian revolution of the 1980s in the back. They dissolved the shoras. They created a fascist Islamic guard, which is their praetorian guard dedicated to assassinating opponents of the Ayatollahs and the best revolutionary fighters. They were settled in Iran after a bloodbath, not only of their murders, but also of the fratricidal war against the servant of imperialism Saddam Hussein, which left a million dead. They rose as a national bourgeoisie that began to negotiate its share of the oil revenues with imperialism, just as Chavez did in Venezuela. They established huge business deals in Syria and Lebanon, two financial offices where they white-wash the money. They are billionaires who to a certain point control the enormous oil and gas income, as junior partners of different imperialist powers, while the workers and the poor people die of hunger and confront them denouncing that "the clerics live like kings and the people like beggars".
Today, the US imperialism seeks to take directly the Iranian oil and gas, and for this Trump has once again imposed on Iran the embargo and also new sanctions... on the ayatollahs as well as on the French and German imperialist companies that were doing businesses there.
It is a dispute over the Iranian oil revenues, which has opened gaps where the masses have broken through. A new front of combat opens up in the Middle East, confronting the ayatollahs, who were supported by the World Social Forum of Chavez and Castro, presented as "anti-imperialists" and friends of the subjugated peoples, when they proved to be the biggest starvationists and repressors. The Iranian masses shake the region again, being part of the fights of a single chain of revolutions that broke out in 2011 from Tunisia to Egypt, from Libya to Syria, from Yemen to Bahrain...
We are witnessing the uprising of the allies of the Syrian masses against those who support Al Assad in Damascus. It is certain their war cry: "Out of Syria! Go back to Iran!"
To end up overthrowing the regime and to open the revolution, the way forward is that of the revolution of the '80s that overthrew Shah Reza Pahlevi... March over the barracks! Seek the rank and file soldiers, children, brothers, cousins of the workers and poor peasants under arms. For the destruction of the Iranian Islamic guard, the bourgeois officer caste that commands repression in Iran and its troops massacre in Syria! Down with Rouhani and Khamenei! May the entire regime of the Ayatollahs fall! Open the road for the shoras, the councils of workers and soldiers!
