War, Bush, [ganowar] THE BATTLE FOR THE FUTURE WILL BE FOUGHT FROM HERE FORWARD!

December 19, 2004

Dear rcyb_atl,

I apologize that I do not have time to read your post in it's etirety.

It's not what Bush and the power elite are planning to do to us, look at

what is aleady being done to us: Sending American soldiers to commit

genocide in Iraq while being exposed to radiation and biochemical warfare

that can result in death by cancer, full time disability, possible

biochemical affects on sexual partner, DNA alteration, birth defects while

depleting our country's resources. The FDA has been caught putting HRT,

antidepressents, Vioxx, etc. into the food chain admitting that these drugs

have killed literally thousand of Americans while Congress approves funding

for compulsory mental health screenings as a precusror to involuntarily

psychiatric medication for those without politically correct thinking under

the auspices of " New Freedom in Mental Health " . Congress passed the National

ID Dec. 9, 2004 while the Ga. Driver's license, a prototype of the National

ID has been seizing fingerprints by inkless scanning device since Oct. 1,

1996 in violation of the law (50-13-4, 50-13-3)

while publicly funded pulbic officials violating their Oaths of OFfice

premeditated coerced Georgians to waive their constitutional right to be

issued a drivers' license.

There is a meeting tonight at 7PM for the planning of a counterinaugural

protest Jan. 20.

It is at the Little 5 Point Community Center. Be there or be square.

THE BATTLE FOR THE FUTURE WILL BE FOUGHT FROM HERE FORWARD!

YOU THINK YOU KNOW................BUT YOU HAVE NO

IDEA..............JUST WHAT BUSH HAS IN STORE

FOR.....YOU.....US.....THE WORLD.....OUR FUTURE!

Straight up-Bush and his people aren't just ordinary Republicans. And

they're not ordinary Christians either. They are Christian

Fascists-dangerous fanatics who aim to make the U.S. a religious

dictatorship and to force this upon the world. If they get their

way-and they are very far along the road to getting it-society will be

plunged into a high-tech Dark Ages.

Those who compare Bush to Hitler are right! But, don't be waiting for

people wearing little mustaches and marching the Nazi goose-step to

come to your town. This brand of fascism is coming differently, and

it's coming straight from the White House.

Staring at Christian Fascism

People say, " they couldn't, no they just wouldn't " strip away

" classic " U.S. democracy and plunge us into fascism. But let's see

what they've done... and what they plan to do.

Bush believes that he is on a " mission from God, " and so do his

cronies. Army General William Boykin recently declared that the Iraqi

people were the " face of Satan, " that the Christian God was the only

true and " real " god, and that " God himself " put Bush in the White

House. He said all this publicly and in uniform, no less-and after

people protested it, Boykin was promoted! Over the years these

Christian Fascists have dug in at every level of the courts, the army

and Congress. BUT NOW THEY PLAN TO GO FURTHER, moving more thoroughly

into the highest levels of power. Supreme Court Justice Scalia and

other highly placed Republicans want to wipe out the separation of

church and state, and use government to support and enforce religious

belief.

Bush has launched a worldwide " crusade. " In the name of " good vs.

evil, " he's killed tens of thousands of people in Iraq, and maybe

more-and still the war rages. In the name of " fighting terror " , he

justifies torturing people in prisons like Guantanamo and murdering

wounded prisoners in Iraq. This proven liar has rammed through a new

" doctrine " that lets him wage war whenever and wherever he says he

" sees a threat " , and there is no telling where he'll stop. The U.S.

has long committed monstrous crimes around the world ... and NOW THEY

PLAN TO GO FURTHER. The imperialists in power-all of them, with Bush

at the core-want total global empire. Bush himself believes in

Armageddon, that Islam is " evil " , and that he is " fighting for God. "

How many people, halfway 'round the world or right down the block,

will lose their lives to this lunacy? Lunacy backed up by, and

serving, imperialism.

Bush's gang suppresses science. They've taken control of scientific

agencies. They promote " creationism " against evolution and they

suppress scientific research on life-and-death issues like global

warming, the AIDS epidemic, and stem-cell research. Unless they can

use it to make money or make weapons, Bush's people hate the

scientific spirit of trying to figure out how the world really works.

Science calls into question their dogmatic interpretation of the Bible

that prepares people to sacrifice for " god and country " -and never ask why.

Bush is dismantling democratic rights. Tens of thousands of immigrants

have been detained and deported for little, if any, reason and

thousands more have been imprisoned with no charges-many for years.

The Bush regime spies on political and religious groups. It suppresses

ordinary protests with massive force, including even tanks in the

streets. And it openly disenfranchised hundreds of thousands of Black

voters in the last election. All this, AND NOW THEY PLAN ON GOING

FURTHER. Bush aims to pass more fascist laws, his flunkies threaten

artists and intellectuals who dare to step outside the lines, they are

invading all aspects of daily life-and it is an open question as to

whether any rights at all will be left standing.

Bush's Morality: Hypocrisy and Hatred

Bush talks about " values, " but if you're a single woman and you want

to live your own life ... or if you're gay and proud ... these

Christian Fascists have you in their cross-hairs. They've severely

restricted the right to abortion and tried to put independent-minded

women on the defensive. They whipped up anti-gay hatred as a big part

of their presidential campaign. BUT NOW THEY ARE GOING MUCH FURTHER.

Bush aims to appoint new Supreme Court justices who will totally

outlaw abortion, and he wants to pass a constitutional amendment

against gay marriage. And these fascists also go after the more humane

forms of Christianity that don't share their hateful bigotry.

" Values? " These people have the morality of a lynch mob! If you are

Black or Latino, and especially if you are up against the merciless

conditions of the inner city ... then you too are in the cross-hairs.

Bush plans to rip out even social security. He wants to do health

care, education, welfare, and even prisons through churches that are

directly approved, funded by and answering to the government. These

churches will not " lift people up " -and these programs will degrade

people, insisting that they agree that their hunger, their

homelessness, and their problems flow from their " sins " -and not from a

system that has oppressed them from Day One. And the full Christian

Fascist plan-which includes vastly expanded capital punishment for

minor crimes, in accord with Old Testament " morality " -is far worse,

with a downright genocidal direction to it.

A Time for Resistance

Are we exaggerating? If anything, people have always under-estimated

just how fast and how far Bush would go. And now he claims a " mandate "

for his lunacy. No, Bush and the people around him are deadly serious

and aim to go much further than almost anyone expects.

As for " mandate? " BULL! The will of the people was NOT expressed in

this election. Kerry didn't call Bush out for his lies and deception,

or expose the real horrors of Bush's deeds-and his plans. There was no

real fight, and people should not grant a shred of legitimacy to Bush.

And waiting for yet another Democrat to disappoint and betray people

four years from now is not only worthless-it may be way too late. What

we need now, very urgently and very immediately, is RESISTANCE.

Resistance, in the words of Bob Avakian, Chairman of the Revolutionary

Communist Party, " that refuses to be bound by the terms of mainstream

politics or the notion that this politics represents the 'ultimate

word' on the 'will of the people.' Resistance that will not just

protest the juggernaut of war and fascism but go all-out to STOP it.

Resistance that will reach out and win over people who have been

deceived by this madness but whose deepest interests are opposed to

it. Resistance that will be united-but will still include space for

dreams and debate. "

We can build on the past resistance to the Iraq war and other Bush

outrages. But this must come back together and take a huge leap with

major actions when Bush is inaugurated on January 20th, 2005. People

everywhere must see that there really ARE " two Americas, " squaring off

over the future.

The Revolutionary Way Out

This Christian Fascism didn't materialize out of thin air. It arose on

the basis of CAPITALISM and the most powerful capitalists support it

(even as they fight among themselves).

What do we mean by capitalism? Today, people could produce enough

food, housing and clothing to provide a decent life to everyone on the

planet. But the means to do this are owned and controlled by a handful

of global capitalist-imperialists who are driven to get ever greater

profit, or else go under. And so half the people on the planet live on

less than $2 a day. Billions go hungry. People are driven from country

to city and then around the world, desperately seeking work, while

communities in the U.S. are left to rot. And now the Bush lunacy has

taken this to an even more terrible level.

But imagine a different future. A future where people consciously

learn about and transform the world, and are not imprisoned in the

chains of tradition and ignorance. A world without racism and without

borders. A vibrant place, where people together debate and decide how

to develop society. A world where people no longer wonder where their

next meal will come from, or if they will be homeless, or abandoned or

sick in their old age-a world of abundance, where people together hold

all of society's resources in common. A world where people not only

work to produce the necessities of life, but get into art and culture

and science-and have fun doing it! A world without the domination of

women by men, where people interact with each other based on mutual

respect, concern and love for humanity. A world that looks out for and

takes care of the environment.

That world is communism. And we can get to that world.

A Revolutionary Society

But how? Through revolution-where those who are today exploited and

oppressed rise up and defeat the powers-that-be. A revolution led by

the class that owns nothing but its ability to work, and yet works

together to make the world run. A revolution in which this class steps

on to the stage of history and leads tens of millions more-including

the millions who hate the cruel reign of Bush and the Christian fascists.

Revolutions don't happen overnight, or by accident. But when a deep

crisis suddenly erupts in society, and when a revolutionary party has

been actively organizing and preparing people for such an opening, and

when millions of people begin to think we need a basic change ... and

become a " revolutionary people " ... then dreams can be seized in the

clear light of day. No, we're not there yet-but the extreme changes

being wrought by the Bush crew could very well lead to such a crisis.

And our Party is doing all it can to bring forward a revolutionary

people to seize that time, whenever it may come.

People have made this kind of revolution before-first in Russia, then

in China. And they accomplished amazing things. In the end, however,

those revolutions were finally turned back and defeated by the

guardians of the old order. But building on their tremendous

accomplishments-and examining deeply and unsparingly their negative

experiences-Bob Avakian has brought forward a radical new " model " and

vision of what this socialist society must be all about.

Socialist society will enable people to solve the most burning

problems that bedevil us today. The " rule of profit " will be shattered

and there will be jobs, health care, decent housing and stimulating

education-for everyone. Communities will be centers where people join

to solve the problems that hold society back. The racism and white

supremacy that is woven so deeply into the fabric of American

capitalism, and the chains of women's oppression that still weigh so

heavily, will be struggled against and uprooted-from the gitgo! And

the socialist state will not oppress other nations-instead, it will

support revolution all around the world.

But even more crucially, the new society will unleash people to change

the world. People will count for something-in fact, for everything.

Those who were formerly locked out of working with ideas will do

exactly that-they will work with their minds and participate in

society in an all-round way. The leadership of society will work to

unleash diverse thinking and action from the bottom up and everywhere

else. It will foster dissent, including opposition to the government

itself; it will learn all it can from people, so that society can move

forward. The youth will be treasured for their dreams, their daring

.... and their impatience. There will be ferment and upheaval-far

beyond what we can imagine today.

And yes, there must be, and there will be, firm leadership to hold

onto power for the people and to guide all the complex and challenging

struggle. Through this whole process, and as other revolutions develop

around the world, the state itself will draw more and more millions

into the direct rule of every part of society until the division of

people into ruler and ruled is finally overcome, in communist society.

This socialism, as envisioned by Bob Avakian, will embrace scientists,

intellectuals, and artists. They'll continue their intellectual and

artistic work, deepening the store of human knowledge, even as they

break down barriers with other sections of society, especially the

formerly exploited and oppressed. The leadership of society won't fear

their tendency to question everything, or to look at things in new

ways. On the contrary, it will welcome this in a way that no other

society can-for without lively questioning and " air to breathe " ,

socialism would not be a place people would want to live, nor would it

open up the road to communism.

In this revolutionary society people will be able to practice religion

and go to church-or not-as they please. But the schools, and the

government generally, will promote a scientific approach to

understanding and changing material reality. On that basis, a new

morality will be forged. It will cherish the lives of the people of

the world and uphold equality between nations and peoples and between

men and women. It will value struggle against the oppressive relations

that still remain, and not resignation and surrender to them.

The Clash of Two Futures

Two futures confront each other. Will imperialism force a future of

darkness and suffocation onto the people? Will tens of millions more

needlessly suffer and die? OR, will the critical spirit be unleashed

in a way that does a great GOOD for humanity? Will society move

forward in a revolutionary direction and set about removing the great

suffering and misery cast down on the people by capitalism?

To put it another way, which vision will prevail: that of George W.

Bush? Or of Bob Avakian?

Each of us has a part in answering this question. We know that the job

is huge, the time is short, and the odds are long. Yet we are down for

this, all the way down, and optimistic as well.

But let us put it to YOU: if you've been agonizing about the future,

if you nodded your head as you read this statement, then... what are

YOU gonna do? Are YOU going to be one of thousands who come together

now and help create the force that can lead millions against this

madness, when millions are ready to be led? Will you help create and

bring onto the stage a revolutionary people? Are you ready to check

out this Party and this leader? Will you bring your ideas, your

creativity, your questions and yes, your disagreements to us, and help

figure out how we can rise to the occasion? Are YOU ready to make a

real difference-to not only spread the word of resistance and

revolution, but make that a real alternative in society?

Don't let Bush determine the future. Spread this statement to your

friends. Talk about it with them. And check us out. Now.

Who Is Bob Avakian?

Anyone seriously thinking about revolution knows that it can't happen

without revolutionary leadership.

It's a huge question.

Well, just to be up front, there IS a leader, the likes of which this

country has never seen before, that can lead a mighty struggle to make

revolution and remake society. That leader is Bob Avakian, Chairman of

the Revolutionary Communist Party.

Chairman Avakian knows revolution. He has studied deeply the

revolutions of the past and taken up the responsibility for charting

the course of revolution today. He has done a whole " re-envisioning "

of communist society and what it will take to get there. He's a leader

with tremendous love for and confidence in the people; and he gives

you confidence and hope that we can actually do what the times demand

of all of us.

But there's more to his leadership than this. Chairman Avakian makes

not just what he's learned but how he analyzes things the property of

the people. He knows it takes the great involvement of the people to

make revolution, and he invites-and challenges-everyone into the

process of struggle to know and change the world. It may seem ironic

.... but the more that people wrestle with and follow his leadership,

the greater will be their creative spirit, initiative, and activity.

We in the RCP are fully aware that someone like Bob Avakian comes

along only very rarely, and we take seriously our responsibility to

defend this precious leader from the powers-that-be-and to rally

others to do so as well.

If you care at all about the world we're in, you should check him out

for yourselves. Get into Chairman Avakian's historic DVD talk,

REVOLUTION: Why It's Necessary; Why It's Possible; and What It's All

About.
