International Appeal
To all militant workers', Human Rights and Student Organizations in the Americas and around the world
For an International Committee of Struggle
in support of the Colombian uprising
“THEY ARE KILLING US”
With the unity of workers and the exploited in struggle…
THE MASSACRE OF THE COLOMBIAN WORKERS AND EXPLOITED MUST BE STOPPED!
Unconditional freedom for all political prisoners!
Appearance alive of all the disappeared comrades!
Shortly after a month of revolutionary struggle of the exploited Colombian people who don’t submit to the peace accords of the treacherous bureaucracies that negotiate with the murderers of the people over the spilled blood, the Duque government and its regime of the Yankee military bases gave the order for a massacre operation to punish the uprising masses and the rebellious youth of the first line who don’t surrender, that’s why they denounce and shout "They are killing us, let the world knows!
The police, the ESMAD hitmen, the paramilitaries and the murderous army have killed more than 60 comrades, they hold 1645 fighters hostage in prisons under torture and 21 victims of sexual violence at the hands of the police are already reported. They have disappeared more than 1000 fighters, whose corpses are beginning to be found in clandestine graves with signs of torture, floating in the rivers of Colombia, others dismembered in bags. They slaughter the best of the vanguard! This hated regime has even financed and converted the Exito supermarket, located in the Calipso neighborhood in Cali, into a police torture center.
But the revolted people have not given up and are still fighting for the fall of Duque and to definitively defeat all the anti-worker plans of the IMF and the transnationals: Out with Duque! Out with the gringos and their military bases in Colombia and Latin America! Out with the IMF, the UN and the OAS!, For self-defense committees! Dissolution of the police and all repressive institutions like the ESMAD! Workers' and popular tribunals to judge and punish the murderers of the people! Appearance alive of all the disappeared comrades! Freedom for all political prisoners!
The gringos and their military bases are the same ones that have commanded the fascist coup and the massacre in Senkata and Sacaba in Bolivia in 2019. Now they seek to reedit another massacre on the workers and peasants of Colombia as a hard blow to the resistance and struggle of all the workers in all Latin America. They are the same imperialist parasites that command the massacre against the uprising of the Palestinian nation with their fascist occupier Israel; that went on a rampage massacring with Putin and the dog Assad to the exploited of Syria, that is why we need the broadest unity, to free our prisoners, to do justice for our martyrs and to stop the massacre of the Colombian, Palestinian and Syrian people. One same enemy, one same struggle!
NOT ONE MORE MASSACRE OF THE WORKERS AND EXPLOITED!
WE NEED TO ORGANIZE AND CONQUER A CONTINENTAL GENERAL STRIKE!
Let’s call immediately for an International Committee of Struggle of the workers', peasants', human rights and militant youth organizations of Latin America, of "Black Lives Matter" -BLM- and of the unions in struggle in the USA, the Conlutas of Brazil, the militant class organizations and unemployed of Argentina, the COB and the factory workers of La Paz in Bolivia, the National Union, Social and Popular Coordinator of Colombia and the currents that claim to be socialist like the PST-LIT, Democracia Directa among others that raises as a measure the CONTINENTAL GENERAL STRIKE with a program that contemplates a day's wage per worker for the first line, that organizes the sending of medicines, supplies and arms for the struggle of the Colombian workers and peasants.
The forces for this combat are already fighting day by day and can take in their hands the effective solidarity with the rebels of Colombia, like the fathers and mothers who continue to search alive for the 43 normalists of Ayotzinapa-Mexico, like the Coordinadora 18 de Octubre of Chile who fight for the full freedom of the 3.000 prisoners of the revolt, the Association of Victims of the Senkata massacre who continue to seek justice and freedom for political prisoners, the Commission of Convicted Workers, Relatives and Friends of Las Heras who fight tirelessly for the political prisoners of the world and the acquittal of the Argentinean oil workers, the activists who fight for the freedom of Abdallah imprisoned in France for fighting for the Palestinian cause, with the glorious Syrian resistance that doesn’t bow down in front of the dog Bashar, Putin and the genocidal Yankees. The struggle to stop the massacre is the same struggle for justice for our martyrs, the effective freedom of all political prisoners in the world. Without justice there will be no peace for those at the top!
One year after the assassination of George Floyd we say THE LIVES OF THE WORKERS AND PEASANTS OF COLOMBIA AND THE WHOLE CONTINENT MATTER!
Not one more massacre! Not one more disappeared! Not one more political prisoner in the claws of the murderous regimes and their lackey governments!
THE UPRISING OF THE SLAVES IS NOT A CRIME, IT´S JUSTICE!
