It should be borne in mind that especially where there is a clash between material in Intro to Quantum Materialism & S.O.F., I regard Intro to QM as having priority(this is not to be read as diminishing my warnings vis the need for the movement to continuously develop both theory & program further….
Please note (vs Chapter 2 Vol I of S.O.F.) much originally
written early/ mid1996-98. & impossible to regear without overhauling
entire work which given post Sept 11 2001 situation impossible to do vis
imminent nuke threat/ need to be ready to launch at a moments notice.
(Virtually none of C2 & C3 of Vol I especially, was amended/ brought into line with the last pre- Sept 11th strategic paradigm calibrated to rise of BNP, (between April - July/ August 2001. Sept 11th cut across this compelling regearing of entire strategy; its streamlining/ focusing on `Intro to QuantumMaterialism’)
2 THE REVOLUTIONARY FRAMEWORK
(In this section we shall concentrate on legitimacy
struggles against regimes possessing pseudo legitimacy - as the other
scenarios against Caesarism, occupation & nuclear fascism, are pretty
straightforward; though we shall analyse in greater depth the PRIMARY
`neutralising doomsday' strategy to be deployed if the enemy uses nuclear
weapons directly against the revolution in the core geo strategic theatre.)
While at every level it is neccessary to
support (essentially defensive) community & conventional labor movement
struggles (and to work with anyone insofar as they are willing to work
with us) it is essential to re-emphasise that such struggles will not (in themselves)
and cannot lead to a successful revolutionary offensive. This requires a
directly revolutionary-political challenge to the legitimacy of
the pol-econ regime. The most (and it is a useful & potentially critical
role) orthodox labor struggles can do is create a strong labor movement rearguard
butressing the revolutionary-political vangaurd.
Furthermore
it is essential to insure that the enemy stays crushed and cannot
regroup. There is the gravest danger (as in the Russian Revolution) that the
enemy including labor, alongside the likes of Tony Benn (behind whom will stand
all the scum of the old order), will regroup around the banner of `restoration
of Parliamentary Sovereignty' . It is essential therefore that there is a clear
understanding (by every citizen) of the need to judge the state and
corporate criminals by our laws and not the criminals' own code (which means retrospective
application of a revolutionary constitution and certain core laws against state
and city criminality) before elections to a new parliament and regional
parliaments (the powers of which must be delimited to render acts of
privitisation a treasonous infringement of economic democracy - workers'
pension councils) to demonstrate clearly the criminality of the old
order and avoid a repitition of the Russian civil-war.
These
are not commitments that can easily be tagged on later, but need to be
clarified from the very beginning. This means agreement on certain core
objectives (A Basic Program); with plenty of room for debate within these
boundaries:
(1) Workers'
control over their own pension funds. control over the rest of the top 400
(3000 in Europe) monopolies to be ceded to them as reperations by
monopoly & financier capital for all the years of speculation, robbery and
state criminality. Workers' control to be exercised through democratically
elected Workers' Pension Councils. Attempts at privitisations (over the heads
of the WPC's) by parliament or anyone else to be constituted a treasonous
violation of economic democracy.
(2) Medium-sized
& larger non-nationalised firms to pay contributions to a workers'
pension/insurance fund (under WPC control). So that (over time) control
over the concerns passes to the workers - to insure that investment in
machinery and people is permanently prioritised instead of share
dividends & speculation.
(3) The RDF and
its' affiliates to support (politically, not militarily)
anti-fascists engaged in armed struggle against classical fascists and
anti-fascist POWs.
(4) The Common Ownership of
Information - Expose
city and state criminality release info. on top 400 (3000 in Europe) monopolies
and the state centres of power. Consolidate civil society control of
finance through the liquidation of private ownership of info. through the
scrapping of copyright, establishing the common ownership of information.
So that no plundering corp has
the interest or the power to make the most of private ownership of
knowledge by extracting as much profit as they can, regardless
of wider social/ econ/ environmental cost (RnD can be financed through
colleges/ universities - all drawing freely from the well - The
common ownership of info also enables civil society to guide
development).
(5) City and state
gangsters to trial & execution. Laws
against speculation and state criminality to be applied retrospectively,
trial by our laws not their own corrupt (bought and paid for)
legislation. Corporate and city criminals to be held responsible for all state
crime from which they profitted. The Queen to be tried & executed for
sanctioning criminality in her name under the authority of Crown Power. (ALL
monarchs, eg Japanese etc, must be executed regardless of official
constitutional role, for their very presence is used defacto underpin the
legitimacy of the regime, by challenging dissidents to decapitate it or
submit).
Our
movement is machine orientated. Targeted against the military
plutocratic machine rather than any individual. So if Yeltsin (or any brit
leader etc) be let of by parliament after having been charged with
impeachable offenses that parrallel our own, this makes no difference to
the revolution. For such still be charged with serving the military
plutocratic machine (that the rev machine overthrows), rather than a personal
charge - & be hanged for it just the same.
(6) A WPC
controlled provisional govt. to takeover temporarily to, a)mop up the
enemy and b) draw up & ratify the new constitution - defining
parliaments power & role ((essentially redistributive through the
taxation system; WPCs, guided by parliaments' tax system, responsible for
wealth creation/production - through control of finance - preventing capital
being a law unto itself). After the gangsters have been tried & executed, fresh elections to Commonwealth/
regional parliaments (the national parliaments having been liquidated) to be held.
(7) The RDF & its affiliates to
support politically the convergence of the All-European anti-fascist
I-Bs against German classical fascism at the Battle of Berlin, to weld the
Euro commonwealth (of the regions)
together as the geo strategic backbone of the global Commonwealth
confederation, defining Europe for global reconstruction (especially Russia)
& against USA led global military plutocracy.
As to consolidate
antifascism it is neccessary to consolidate a pan Euro rev geo pol/econ centre
of gravity, general convergence on the core is required rather than the
peripheral bases (which to secure victory need consolidation from the core).
This requires the Germanic states; which must become the strategic & moral
backbone for the Euro Commonwealth of the regions, of the whole G.C.C.. Just as
Europe's historic fear of Germany means the British must launch the all Euro
campaign & export it to Germnay via
Battle of Berlin, defining Europe for G.C.C. & against USA led
military plutocracy.
(8) The liquidation of the nation
state in favor of a Commonwealth of the regions.
That
the central power be delimited to perform only those functions allowed it by the
regions/constituent republics.
That
its role be primarily a redistributive role - especially to aid
development/reconstruction - to insure stability between the constituent parts
of the federation. Preventing richer components choking on their own barbed
wire through militarised expenditure in an effort to keep down the poorer (note
the $19 TRILLION squandered by the USA govt on `defense'
between 1940-98). Or else, the richer states shall be subject to massive
migration, and in an attempt to keep down the poorer, retain by default or
re-introduce a plundering military- plutocratic national security
state/pol/econ regime; and continue to choke on their own barbed wire.
That
this principle be extended to include all free nations in a commonwealth
of the regions (there being no national security state role for the
nation state to perform any more) and a global commonwealth confederation
(as a 1st step towards an eventual global commonwealth federation). It
is not possible to (fully) scrap immingration controls until the 3rd world is
raised up (establishing relative global economic economic equilibrium), so to
prevent the Euro/ USA choking on their own barbed wire WARTIME
sacrifices to finance global reconstruction/ (the poorer) confederated
commonwealths must be made.
Different
factions (in the new movement) will present different ideas (&
publications) & accept resposibility for such. Some it will be possible to
work with (within Basic Program & Rules of rev warfare - outlined shortly
etc), even though many be innately hostile to the philosophic theory outlined
in Vol II; others given to rioutous indiscipline it will not be.
While the
author contends that interest in (even outrage at) the martyr centred
philosophic theory (God dialectic/ immortality of the idea - outlined in Vol
II), jet fuels the spread of the theory & operational campaign, that to
downplay significance of such would be fatal to the Revolution, it would be
equally (if not more) fatal to exclude anyone merely for not subscribing to every
dot & comma of the author's historical/ philosophic theories.
Indeed such
can only exclude themselves if they reject the idea of a movement propelled/
led by blood sacrifice, of the need for such to vanquish military plutocracy.
This harks
back to the English Civil War. Different intensely philosophical factions/
tendancies standing together in the same army. But this time the army SHALL be
paid of; via consolidation of the Revolution settlement as outlined in the
Basic program.
& to
any that fear the author could become another Lord Protector, see `historical
checks & balances at beginning & end of the revolutionary process'
later in this chapter for the deadly gaurentees against such a threat.
THE RULES OF REVOLUTIONARY WAR
Class Militarisation
There
are 2 principle problems we face:
What to do in case of & how to respond to
police attacks on peaceful demos.
How to minimise the general danger of
hooliganism and outright terrorism by secret-state agent-provocateurs on
peaceful legal & illegal demos, anti-fascist street battles and elsewhere
in our name.
To
deal with both A and B there needs to be a clear set of military-political
rules of engagement for our side so as to minimise confusion and the
opportunities for secret-state terrorism. It is all important to
remember - LEGITIMACY IS EVERYTHING.
These
are the key Qs/ threats that underpin The Rules of Revolutionary War.
SECTION - (A)
(BASIC OUTLINE)
The Component Organs
(*note Cyber
Army dealt with in Chapter 1 shall also be covered in a later sub section
of `Rules of rev war' in `historical checks
& balances at the beginning & end of the revolutionary process')
Internationalist Brigades
A
further answer to (B) lies in the main component organs (especially their
central structures) forgetting completely about cell structures &
underground action. We cannot afford to entertain any dream of outplaying the
enemy at its' own secrecy game (especially in these days of high-tech
surveillance and digital imaging of unique facial/eye charachteristics), but
rather should opt instead for maximum openness of general objectives, ideas and
military formations; so that everyone knows where we stand - 100% against
Red Brigades (secret state assisted/used) type terrorism.
This
means accepting a very high arrest rate (there is in any case no other way, if
embarking on this general strategy). But this also means for the enemy, that
the stakes are raised dramatically as in a prison-based campaign (with at least
some POWs going on hunger-strike acting as a focal point for the revolutionary
campaign), the states' own repressive weaponry can be dramatically turned
against it. In any case the I-B's begin as a virtual military irrelevance, what matters is the declaration
of intent and the political impact & advantage of forcing the enemy to
fight on political ground of our choosing. Indeed it is only this
political impact which enables the I-Bs to become a significant
force - a progessive cyclical dynamic that will be repeated exponentially.
I-Bs
are the commonwealth army (the historical antithesis of the Roman
imperial army) - welding Europe together via the Battle of Berlin.
To
re-cap, the specialist task of the I-Bs is to launch a global
anti-fascist Tet-style offensive against open fascism with whatever
weapons (up to and including conventional field artillery) are available (with
some to go on hunger-strike), to fix the military-political centre of gravity
for the movemnt (against terrorism and reformism) and above all, to
seize the political agenda and force the enemy to fight on political terrain of
our choosing. The I-Bs are the martyr-shock-troops of the revolutionary
movement.
The
I-Bs should be:
Of high political calibre/education.
Ready to kill/die fighting fascism; resolved on
marrtyrdom.
At least 21. To avoid the sight of (or at least
minimse the impact of) mothers saying that their son/daughter is too young to
make their own decisions.
Conscious of the probability/inevitability of
torture/rape (men included) in prison etc.
Have NO children, in case of
torture/rape/intimidation by the enemy.
Be drugfree.
*NB
Should aim for above 50% women military
cadres as a neccessary anti-dote to toy-Che Geuvaraism. Internal discipline
(which their prescence would aid) is of first importance (eg. "not
hampered by the macho thing"-Andy Mcnab; note also effective role in
Israeli army /sendero luminoso). It should further be added that every action of the I-Bs should be dictated by the
objective of creating opportunities & room for manouevre for the political
wings to work in.
The Revolutionary Democratic Front
As
regards some of the actions/tasks of the RDF to build the movement:
Campaign to free the anti-fascist POWs
Build the campaign of popular impeachment against
state and city criminality (linked with 1 and a revolutionary pol-econ
alternative).
Begin to build a broad neo-chartist alliance of
resistance elements within a clearly revolutionary framework.
Reclaim the streets (connected with all of the
above anti-CJB etc).
Later on assist/organise territorial demos and
defence militia to assist in their
defense.
Build a network of workers' pension councils - as
organs of struggle-ultimately to take power.
Build a cadre of Citizens Gaurds to steward
peaceful demos - later to become the militia defending territorial demos,
becoming the main armed force of the movement.
The
RDF is the principle mass offensive revolutionary organ.
The Electoral Arm
It
is in the question of how to approach bourgeois elections that the maximalist
approach of Quantum Materialism runs into the mother of all dialectical
contradictions. We have seen how post-Chartism/1848 revolutions, the anarchists
and left-wing sects got themselves into a dreadful flap about not supporting
reformist struggles. Conversely Marxism has historically, even in the high-tide
of labor struggles, been continually shunted
into the sidings of obscure union politics. Their abysmal failure during
the last hightide (winter of discontent), to get across to the mass of
the populace a clear revolutionary pol-econ alternative to speculative greed
(things being immeasurably more difficult now), never mind targeting the
regimes legitimacy, is demonstration enough. And as the Militant/Liverpool
Walton(Real Labour) and Scargills' recent electoral debacles have shown - the
parliamentary wing of the revolutionary movement will get nowhere without
first a mass (street-based) campaign providing a fertile base/soil for its'
growth.
Unfortunately
anything less than an all-out assault (by the RDF) on the regimes' legitimacy
would actually serve to buttress its' percieved legitimacy by accepting its
agenda and (dragging the new movement into) battle on the regimes' terms -
toothless local govt. and labor disputes.
It
is this dialectical contradiction that the struggle for reform does not
lead to revolution, but that the struggle for revolution has a (partly inescapable)
tendancy to become a struggle for reform, that is historically our greatest
problem. For a boycott of elections (the only description of of
non-participation) will only leave the masses confronted by an electorally
fortified regime.
The
lesser evil is for the new movement to give critical support to abroad radical
coalition including the marxists (militant)/broad-left candidates in national
& local elections and union posts (forming a strong labor reargaurd
butressing the political vangaurd). Whilst concentrating all the new
movements fire on the regimes' legitimacy, preserving its maximalist integrity
from reformist decay while simaltaneously fortifying the legal positions of the
movement (so continuously denying the enemy room for maneouvre). This
however means that the components of the movement will not be perfectly
parallel, that there will arise very
bitter antagonisms over differing methods. This unfortunately is unavoidable,
and (if needs be) the new movement must either pull the radicals/marxists into
working with the RDF in carrying out its' core agenda (if the radicals/marxists
are elected to govt.) or else (when the masses won over) mobilise the masses to
carry out the revolutionary reconstructionist program over the heads of the radicals/marxists
by any means neccessary, up to and including armed revolution - Our
contention is that it is not parliament that is sovereign, or even the
revolutionary party, but the revolutionary people and their constitutional
command over their state.
We
have seen before, that the supremacy of the rev dem movement is manifest via
the Battle of Berlin forged by the I-B Army of the Commonwealth.
summary
If
the success of the revolution merely depended on a revolutionary tendancy
working within the labor movement (pushing for ever more radical demands), to
gain hegemony over it, the revolution would have been achieved a long time ago.
Or if it merely required the immediate advancement of a maximalist program, the
revolution would have been achieved a long time ago.
But
the decisive point that has to be grasped, is that the revolution requires the
operation of both these mutually antagonistic patterns of struggle to
succeed (the I-Bs and Revolutionary Democrats to launch and build the movement,
the radicals/ Marxist laborists to fortify it - to deny the enemy room for
manouevre - and finally, again, the Revolutionary Democrats to crush the enemy
pitilessly); with the (neo-chartist) revolutionary-political movement as the
offensive vangaurd and the radicals/ Marxist labor movement as the defensive
rearguard.
Auxiliary branches of the movement
The Veterans' Guard
In
order to mobilise pensioners/war veterans as a moral vangaurd on the issue of workers'
control over their own pension funds (and reperations from the ruling class for
their criminality/robbery); we should set up a Veterans' Guard.
Such a paramilitary formation as well as acting as a moral
stimulant to youth to join the Citizens' Guard, will further buttress the
social stability/ cohesiveness of the movement - further weakening the enemy's
room for manouevre, to target the youth politically.
The 4th League (The Underground)
The
revolutionary underground (within the ranks of the enemy - NOT to be
confused with the Cyber Army) can have no organisational contact
whatsoever with any of the three main divisions of the movement- the I-Bs, the
RDF or the parliamentary bloc.
There
is however a need to make use of all potentially revolutionary forces that may
be of service in undermining the enemy's position - particularly among the
ranks of the enemy themselves, eg TRUE patriots who are absolutely sickened by
the way the financier's regime has brought the country and its' people to its' knees
with its' criminal speculation and collaboration with every tyrant on the face
of the earth.
Among
ways the underground can assist the movement are the provision of info. for
public leaking/political warfare and when the time comes, sabotage of
the enemy's military operations within its' rear.
None
of the three main divisions are connected - but all are parallel and distinct
organisations. With the 4th league due to the clandestine and secretive nature
of their operations- working in the very midst of the enemy- it is not even
possible to build a specific single coordinating organisation as such; merely
many separate circles of operatives (and sleepers) setting themselves clearly
defined and limited practical objectives - to assist the revolution.
To
re-iterate, it stands to reason that there can be no contact/linkage between
any of the primary organs and the 4th league. The assumption should always be
that the enemy knows everything that is going on in the three main divisions.
Secrecy - if it can work for us at all can only work in the tiniest of circles-
individuals or at most a mere handful of operatives - not traceable
organs like the three main divisions. OPENNESS is the lifeline of
these 3 organs and our movement generally.
It
is also an unfortunate fact that all assistance from the 4th league must be
regarded with the utmost scepticism (it could just as easily come from MI5) and
so both the underground and main movement must adapt accordingly (as in turn
will MI5, ad infinitum), to insure minimum danger for the movement.
Though we also
appeal to allies within the belly of the beast itself, to MI5 agents, to spy for the British,
on USA bases (eg Menworth Hill, Yorkshire & in Cornwall) & sabotage
operations - leak info helping us to do same (eg via the Cyber Army); so that
the enemy at least have their hands partly full in searching their own navels.
If
4th leagueists are caught for spilling the beans on the clandestine activities
of the regime- then (as appropriate) we can assist them and accord them the
status of Official POWs.
Common Cause (revolutionary prisoners movement)
There are
2 principle objectives for `Common Cause':
To prevent the wholesale imprisonment on trumped up charges
of cadres, from dealing the movement a disabling blow sufficient to enable
the regime to follow up with its
destruction. This is avoided be enabling cadres (and ordinary prisoners)
to continue to push the popular indictment of the regime (even though the RDM
cannot campaign to release Common Cause hunger strikers - as otherwise would
degenerate into opportunism - which would fatally backfire).
This
connexion with wider civil scoiety is through a culture of atonement
for our common crime - Our JOINT failure with wider society to attack military
plutocratic crime & seek to look after No. 1.
To force wider civil society to confront the issues of
private prison labor (which as in USA, is where prison policy is heading
generally, as with rising numbers, the pressure to reduce cost of expensive
incarceration, means it must increasingly pay for itself through slavery) &
its implications for wider society. eg that generalised slavery be the
inevitable destination of this route (as distinctions between free & unfree
labor disappear).
And that therefore
wider civil society MUST address the prison Q (just as it must that of general
global impoversihment, vis Russia/ 3rd
world - or it/ both will rebound on us all) & come up with
alternatives that address the spectre of slave labor (it should encourage
dialogue between ordinary criminals, wider civil society & encourage
elements of the old criminal ruling order to
join in discussing an ALL encompassing non revanchist, rehabilitative,
restitutionary justice concept that gaurentees peoples LEGITIMATE
security concerns).
The point
is NOT to launch prison insurgencies, but to put the military plutocratic
regime on trial, through a POLITICAL (NOT MILITARY) connexion with the
wider rev pol campaign.
The Revolutionary Salvation Front
When
an area is occuppied by an enemy (eg Russian revanchist warlordism) or vis USA
Caesarism or vis European pseudo democratic regimes AUTOMATICALLY losing
their legitimacy due to subordination to & USA Caesarism (itself
lacking legitimacy), possessing no pseudo legitimacy, OR vis our `neutralising
doomsday scenario if the enemy uses nuclear weapon against any state
(threatening a nuclear political chain reaction leading to the extinction of
the human race) then the neccessity of a distinction between 3 primary
divisions of the movment AUTOMATICALLY evaporates.
In
such an elemental struggle (bearing much resemblance to early
Christianity), with the entire
programmatic concept of the movement conveyed by the idea of `Redemption Through Sacrifice' (military & economic); it is appropriate that the movement adopt
a name that distinguishes itself, its operational formation from the movement
in areas where a struggle to delegitimise a regime possessing pseudo legitimacy
is STILL neccessary - It should adopt the name `REVOLUTIONARY SALVATION
FRONT'.
The Revolutionary Blitzkrieg
Another
problem that the revolution should prepare for is that the enemy will prosecute
the movement for daring to accuse them of their pol/econ crimes. Therefore it
will be neccessary to lay contingency plans (to turn this to our advantage) to
take the attack to them, by preparing in advance the ground for a legal (court)
war front (the alternative is to be like Militant. So harmless as not to
attract any attention - free to die of natural/historical causes).
We
must therefore (like the Mclibel2) effectively put the enemy on trial by
forcing it to put the RDF on trial (enabling the launch of a counter
prosecution). Keeping the charges & principles general an simple for people
to follow (eg Treason - murder of democracy and murder of the economy).
(In
case it needs to be said) We are not playing according to the laws of
the enemy. When they don't play by ours (eg viz witnesses, evidence & what
is considered `relevant' etc) disrupt proceedings, walk out, hunger strike etc
(The idea is obviously not to secure a formal conviction of the regime, but to
put our case before the masses, to mobilise them to act as judge, jury &
executioner - In Revolutionary Jurisprudence, such power crime, neccessitating
a mass movement in order to bring it to trial is to be viewed radically
differently from ordinary criminal matters - reflected in the martial
procedures for power crime).
Using
such a counter prosecution as another focal point (along with and intensified
by the I-B hunger strikes) for street protests & territorial demos (built
up/aided by this focal point) - we will eventually be able to create a
Revolutionary Blitzkrieg - totally integrating all aspects of (the struggle in)
the assault on the enemy's legitimacy (court, street, POW).
With
the court struggle linked to the struggle to free POWs - BOTH linked to the
mass movement to delegitimise & overthrow the regime.
The
basis of our charge (as laid out in the general Indictment in Chapter 1) is
that the current pol/econ regime as constituted is a criminal power/force
& that therefore, it is our lawful duty to overthrow it (that
as the law is bought and sold like any other commodity, natural justice must
take precedence above all else - meaning that as the hegemony of finance is
the criminal problem, finance must be placed under rev democratic control).
It
will be neccessary to prepare the framework & tactics for the counter
prosecution in advance (eg targeting/calling as witnesses sellers of weapons/torture
equipment and their victims, specualtors, lobbyists, politicians, secret
police, the crown itself, corporate butchers & their victims - the list is
endless - the whole regime and its victims/witnesses etc etc) in order to
demonstrate the criminal mechanics of the whole national/global pol/econ.
Boring
the populace with minutiae is a very real danger - the charges/accussations
will have to kept to the generalised point, the `Van Helsing' principle (eg
just as only a stake through the heart could slay Count Dracula, so ONLY the
generalised Indictment can delegitimise
the regime, anything that CANNOT be brought within the general framework is
best left out).
We
must concentrate on how rapacious profiteering/speculation is responsible for
the ruination of the economy - how the plutocrats buy and sell the law and
subvert any attempt (nationally & internationally - 3rd world etc) to
curtail their power (to insure that politics is contained within what they
consider acceptable limits - Naom Chomsky's work can be considered, at least in
certain respects, that of a Prosecutor General). And how this relates to the
systematic assault on civil liberties by an increasingly fascized state -
leading to apocalypitc threats of oblivion.
Also
that speculation & profiteering are only allowed because of the undue
infleuence of these crooks on the state and that all such criminality is the
result of finance being a law unto itself - To demonstrate the criminal
mechanics of the pol/econ regime.
It
will also be neccessary to gather (in course of the struggle & beforehand)
as large an army of legal volunteers, journalists and other key personnel (eg
to transfer this stuff to the Internet) as can be mustered.
Nothing
like it in history has ever been attempted (the Mclibel case is an ant to an
elephant in comparison). But to re-iterate the enemy will counter attack so it
is neccessary to make contingency plans to turn its own weaponry against it.
Realistically
we cannot possibly hope to have a giant red army of lawyers already prepared to
take on the regime. What we can/must do is seek to be prepared enough to set up
a PROCESS - where the enemy's charges lead to our counter charges and from
there (with wider support), the national/global forces of the info revolution
gather from the ends of the earth (aiding the internationalisation of the
campaign) to converge on the breech/opening we have created. A largely self
mobilising info army of dissident lawyers, journalists, whistle blowers and
victims of the regime etc - Catalysing the shadow insurrection (against the
regimes legitimacy) and in so doing helping to bring about the armed
insurrection in the streets.
Before
the time is ripe for launch of the operational campaign proper, it will NOT be
possible to re-inforce political trials with hunger strikes/ mass movement etc,
as outlined in Chapter 2.
So
far from what we have covered (includig in Chapter 1), we can ascertain the
following basic/ outline Rules of Revolutionary War (which should be viewed
in an All - European Pan Commonwealth context):
Open (classical) fascists (eg those currently rooted in PROVEN
genocidal supremacist WWII Nazi/ fascist/ collaborationist culture, or later
engaged in or political support for genocidal supremacist actions - eg when
global econ crash destroys the Ulster peace boom leading to Ulster elite
resorting to political warlordism to retain control of the political agenda, anti
EU Tories taking to the streets to defend them in the name of `British
sovereignty' then become legitimate targets) possess
no legitimacy. Our movement in Europe, I-Bs have the right to machine gun all such posing a direct threat to the
European theatre of operations (BNP/C18/ Le Pen/Megret/ Zhirinosky/ Ku Klux
Klan etc) with impunity.
But
as, WITHOUT the clearest strategic framework, specifying that any
truly legitimate & proper target must, pose a direct threat to the European
commonwealth (& its movement),
the targeting of any other PERIPHERAL FASCIST element
(eg Indian/ Pakistan, Latin American etc fascism) must inevitably
descend into the mire of terrorism - of picking of any leader that is a bit
iffy (which frankly is ALL of them) - including
the pseudo legitimates, which (for reasons we have covered
earlier) we must target politically (which means
certain death for the revolution) ALL
such actions disqualify said paramilitaries from support by the RDM - eg vis hunger strike struggles.
(The Q of legitimate defensive actions against international mercenary/
mafia formations, is covered in a later sub section of the `Rules of
Revolutionary Warfare').
Support from the Tory party or
Countryside Alliance for Ulster warlordist politicians (supporting genocide in
Ulster in a way similar to Bosnia) in the name of `national soveriegnty' will
qualify them as classical fascists. Overnight their leaderships, headquarters
etc would become legitimate military targets.
State/econ. crypto-fascizing elements
(regime) are generally (however wrongly) percieved as legitimate and having the
democratic/legitimate right to implement/pass repressive pol/econ. laws like
the CJB. We DO NOT have the right to target them militarily.
The regime does not have the right to
crush peaceful demos (legal OR illegal) aimed at exposing the regimes'
illegitimacy/criminality. When their illegitimacy is exposed and the masses won over (so that the regime is now
seen in its' illegitimacy) we THEN have
the right (in the eyes of the masses} to overthrow them with armed force.
We have the legitimate right to engage in illegal
peaceful protests.
We do not have the right to riot/engage
in semi-putschist actions even when the police attack us, even when they go on
a police riot (as in Brixton).
I-Bs are forbidden from taking part in recruitment
activities (on pain of expulsion
from the movement), for the RDF, or taking part in their peaceful demos, eg
to release prisoners etc, as such would compromise the division between
parrallel yet seperate organs. Anyone becoming an I-B from another wing of the movement, eg the
RDF, cannot return to that wing from the I-Bs for the same reason.
But we do have the right to defend ourselves,
demos, revolutionary campaign, by resorting to territorial demos/occuppations
(when the masses are convinced of the neccessity by such police attacks)
of colleges, workplaces etc - defended by barricades, roadblocks and (a militia
- the Citizens' Gaurd, conducting) armed running battles to repel
police attacks. Should the police riot (in Brixton etc) we should hold
peaceful demos in the centre of the capital linking the protest with the
revolutionary program/campaign. If these are attacked, call for territorial
demos/occupations (NB* ALL Citizens' Gaurds to be drugfree) .
It is the task of the RDM as a movement to re-inforce
territorial demos militarily. Eg when the police deploy 10,000s we should
deploy/rally an armed force of however many be neccessary to trump
this/recapture the area. This means HUGE ARMED BATTLES in the centre of the
capital, to defend territorial demos -
effectively to construct/defend the rev power centre.
It
is via territorial demos that the revolution martials its forces in preperation
for an insurrection. Eg IT IS NOT NOR SHOULD IT BE CONFUSED WITH, THE
INSURRECTION ITSELF.
In territorial demos, Citizens gaurds have
martial authority to place an area under martial law & requisition whatever
resources be so required as to secure the military defence of said designated
area.
Citizens Gaurds are responsible for the defence
and martial policing of territorial demos. Should any element engange in
activities undermining martial discipline, such as rape, lootiing (this
obviously does NOT include the requisitioning of militarily useful resources),
Citizens' Gaurds are empowered to use whatever force be neccessary to restore
military order - up to and including the use of lethal force. Rape should be
treated as a capital crime, even of the enemy, whom should merely be
shot.
In dealing with neutral elements, Citizens
Gaurds should conduct themselves in a polite but resolute manner.
Again, we have the right to overthrow the
regime once the masses are convinced of its' illegitimacy and won over to our
program.
As a preparatory measure, to underpin the rev military
takeover of power, Citizens' gaurds in the community displace the police and
assume martial police functions; & clampdown on organised crime, drug
gangs, sub fascist (small unorganised) gangs that be potential tools for the
enemy to foment chaos/counter revolution.
The rev pol movement does not have the right to
displace the police and assume martial police functions until (having won
over the masses), it is actually preparing to take power.
Until then we do not
have the right to drive the police/TSG of the streets completely. We may only
use force (armed) to the extent of defending our legitimate right to
campaign eg. territorial demos and against fascism.
But if the police engage
in Tianenmen sq./Bloody Sunday type massacres (of peaceful demos/territorial
demos) then we have the right to overthrow the regime and as a
peparatory measure, drive the police completely of the streets with armed
force.
If (in the midst of a revolutionary general
strike) we have won over the masses and (or neutralised) the army, but the
police have not engaged in such atrocities, the police have the option
of a)joining us b)remaining/becoming neutral- refusing to obey orders and
submitting to our authority (when we've won) or c)being driven of the streets.
If at any time the police (or any part of them) should tire of waging war on
the people (or should they come to fear us more than their commanding officers)
we must be forever ready to offer them the hand of friendship- on our
revolutionary terms.
WHEN we have consolidated our power centres via
territorial demos (and won over the army/got them to stay neutral), prepare the
insurrection - the siezure of key installations - declare civil war on the
regime and martial law.
Seize key installations, shoot on the spot
the key commanding military, political and econ staff of the counter
revolutionary core. Break the enemy's will to resist with public
executions in the main squares of the capital.
Bring the criminals to trial. Balance public
executions, a postponment of execution with possible clemency in other
cases (conditional on the good behaviour of their class), and clemency in other
cases; to consolidate the rev seizure of power over the old criminal order. And
implement program.
When the constitutional division of power has
been drawn up/ratified and the military threat has been defeated, elections to
be held to regional and Pan Commonwealth (All - European) parliaments.
To prevent the enemy conferring legitimacy on itself
through the calling of elections; UNTIL we have delegitimised the regime, we
should participate in national/ local elections - so as to re-inforce our
power/ emergant popular legitimacy & squeeze the position of the enemy -
until we have gathered the support neccessary to overthrow the regime with
armed force.
But it is NOT Parliament that is soveriegn, but
the rev people & their
constitutional command over their state. Therefore if even OUR parliamentary
wing stands in the way of the Basic Program/ rev constitutional divsion of
power, we shall (when the masses won over) mobilise the massesto carry out the
rev reconstructionist program over the heads of the parliamentary wing - which
of neccissity means armed revolution.
If any parliamentary leader thinks he/ she can
use &/ or dissipate the I-Bs/ Citizens Gaurds by treating them as a
Praetorian Gaurd to re-inforce their parliamentary fraction/personal power -
then they & ANY such element that seeks to resist/ obstruct the power of
the WPCs to bring to trial/ execution the military pol/econ core enemy and
enforcement of the rev constitutional division of power, are to be
treated as part of the enemy.
For the I-Bs to accept political office on the
British etc mainland (as opposed to a victorious European Commonwealth, is an
act of TREASON against the revolution, as it compromises the principle of
parrallel yet seperate organs, & places the credibility of the I-Bs on a
nation state operational framework which has no potential for rev success as opposed
to an ALL EUROPEAN framework which can; it therefore represents
effective political surrender to the military plutocracy by the European based
rev movement. To re-iterate, for I-Bs, the army of the
European Commonwealth, to accept such office on the British
mainland is TREASON.
It
is therefore forbidden to incorporate such into the RDF or parliamentary
fraction. As to consequantly prostrate the (I-B led pan Commonwealth) movement
before the agenda of the (inevitably) military plutocratic nation state, leads
to a clash between rev forces & those so prostrating a fraction of the
movement. Hence they BECOME the enemy (& prone to same fate) - a threat
eclipsed however by the pan commonwealth campaign vis the Battle of Berlin.
To clarify, riots (eg the poll tax riot in response to police
attacks) have no clearly definable military- political purpose/objective
that can be built upon. They therefore have (in political terms), inevitably
spill over into, an offensive military political character - before
the masses are convinced of and marshalled for the neccessity of seizing power;
precisely because they serve no clearly definable military political
objective.
They
therefore enable the enemy to go in for the kill with public support - as we
will have engaged in offensive military operations before we have
convinced the wider masses of our case/delegitimsed the regime.
Countering the counter revolution
Vis the counter revolutionary alliance. When it forms,
before it takes to the streets it possesses the delimited pseudo legitimacy
that any (pro OR anti regime) non governmental organisation that has not
engaged in overt fascist activities would have. Therefore the RDM cannot attack
its HQ/ personnel directly before the counter revolution takes to the streets -
even if it is linked here & there to cellular fascsists (this must be
tackled by other formations - examined in a later sub section of the `Rules of
Revolutionary warfare').
But, when it takes to the streets, we have the right to block
the path of the counter rev organs with territorial demos (an ongoing part of
our rev campaign). Should the counter rev seek to breech our territorial demos
by attempting to pass, the we have the right to open fire, just as we do with
the police.
Furthermore,
UNLIKE with the police (UNTIL we have won over the great bulk of the masses) we
have the right to follow up by liquidating the personnel/HQs of the counter
revolution completely as it does not possess the FULL pseudo legitimacy that
the police have (courtesy of the pseudo legitimacy of the state per se vis
elections).
Vis force feeding of hunger strikers, irregular or regular
rev armed forces should bear in mind that to target the home secretary/ PM or
Crown (who bears primary responsibility) constitutes a military assault on the
regime before it has been delegitimised rendering it clearly unviable. Instead
limit attacks to those with defineable immediate responsibility, up to &
including, especially, the prison governor. For such a
grave crime, their mode of execution should (if circumstances allow)
be exemplary. Full PoW status to be accorded.
Anyone
threatening the children of such imperil the integrity of
our `neutralising doomsday' strategy (which is dependant on our gaurentees of
good treatment of the enemies children, UNLESS the enemy uses Nukes,
biological, chemical weapons); & should therefore be hunted down &
butchered by irregulars.
If full scale insurgency is NOT viable, in accordance with
(as outlined in chapter 2) Rules of rev warfare (eg against a delegitimised
regime/ caesarist figure, or when state has merged with counter rev forces), it
is NOT viable (for a rev stockade state, even on its' own soil) to
arrest/execute the figurehead etc of said state (except in the case of/ as an act
of WAR - which must still by waged, by the rev stockade, state etc in
accordance with the Rules of rev
Warfare as outlined in Chapter 2) etc.
As this
would constitute a military offensive against the whole (as yet to be
delegitimised) core regime (eg Germany/ USA).
The I-Bs
lead the all Euro rev pol campaign at the core
(Germany/ USA) launched against classical fascism, paving the way (as outlined in Chapter 1) for the
delegitimisation of regime at the core (Battle of Berlin/ USA).
SECTION (B)
(THE STEEL CORE - PART 1)
(Preserving the focus of
movement AT ALL COSTS)
(How the movement avoids being dragged
into
fratricidal community conflict)
Preserving the focus of the movement At ALL
COSTS
(the dangers of internecine conlict and how to avoid/minimise
it)
There
is yet another critical problem for the movement to contend with - How to avoid
the generalised rev pol campaign/movement (& its attack on the regimes
legitimacy) getting dragged down by hooligan/criminal elements (with or without
state instigation) into the mire of community based conflicts/battles. -
For as we shall shortly see, until the movement having won over the masses is
actually preparing to take power, RDM involvement in such conflicts would drag
the movement into internecine conflicts (an operational agenda favorable to
the enemy) leading to its degeneration/destruction.
Before
any attempts at self policing by the community are attempted, it will firstly
be neccessary to start to construct a central rev power - an incipient
Provisional Govt., actually preparing to take power. So that the
community - periphery, seeing that the rev power centre be viable, underpins
it with a martial law assault on gangsterdom in the community (eg organised
crime, drug gangs and unorganised racist gangs - organised
politicised groups like C18 will be long targeted anyway) which would otherwise
pose a significant threat to the security of the revolution; as a (potential
and therefore almost inevitable) tool in the hands of the military plutocrats.
The
rev centre of gravity in the community can only be held together by the
macro rev pol campaign. It is this and this alone, that can foster the
Blitz spirit (and tolerance of neccessary war measures against organised crime
- and EQUALLY critically, restrain the fury of petit grievances, for fear of a
GREATER threat from the regime), neccessary to prevent a complete breakdown
into communal strife.
Otherwise
if (the RDM as a movement) we attempt to assume general police powers before
constructing a viable centre of power & preparing to seize power, every
petit dispute assumes political significance and becomes a potential
explosive charge of communal strife.
Furthermore,
the movement must be underpinned by the global movement (as outlined in
Chapter 1) for a Euro/ global Commonwealth (especially via Battle of Berlin).
Therefore
I-Bs cannot go after whoever murdered Stephen Lawrence as part
of a rev pol campaign. For ALL anti racist executions MUST take
place within/be underpinned by a macro rev context (eg in preperation for
the seizure of power), so as to be clearly/operationally (seen to be)
an intrinsic part of gaurenteeing the security of the revolution for all.
Eg
while there be a lot of sympathy over the murder of Stephen Lawrence and police
criminality, if the RDM fails to stick to the macro rev pol operational
strategy outlined, & executes even those responsible for his murder
(issues of self defense are unfortunately a peripheral issue,
which while certainly deserving not only of sympathy but support, cannot
be deployed as a central offensive rev pol issue - as we shall
see) as a movement; this would actually almost certainly
backfire.
(So
although it can clearly be seen that there are alarmingly grey areas, we should
keep the central offensive thrust on the macro rev pol
- with the most extreme slaughter of classical fascists esp C18 etc)
Eg:
`Congratulations, these scum deserved to die. But what about the (Asian)
killers of (white) Richard Everitt?'
So,
it could be argued, Blacks/Asians sort out dangerous elements in the
Black/Asian community. The alternative, following this logic and assuming we
are moving to take over from the police, be no lawcovers Blacks/Asians,
but martial law covers whites - which creates automatic and therefore
racialised contempt.
For
it should be obvious that either the RDM/ Citizens' Gaurd is (at a given
stage) moving to take over police power, or it is not. To otherwise
engage, before preparing to take power, in martial law executions, which
clearly DO NOT fit the rev pol offensive framework (being good only for the
consolidation of rev power), is to throw the whole military - political
strategy & movement into complete and fatal chaos.
For
without underpinning by a general framework/ preperation for seizure of
power, every petit shit kicking dispute thus becomes politicised.
Because, bitterest of ironies, we will have made it so - by
claiming general police powers before establishing a viable
CENTRAL power.
Eg
resulting inevitably in complaints that one section of the community or another
is `not clamping down hard enough' or be `expected to clamp down too hard on
itself' - with no macro movement to unite the community in the face of a
GREATER (core elite) threat; it fragments into internecine warfare, exploited
by racists/fascists within the community.
Therefore
we can/should only begin to pro-actively police our communities (Via Citizens
Gaurds), when we are actually preparing the takeover of power - to underpin the
macro rev pol struggle by clamping down on organised crime, gangster elements
etc, a potentially dangerous weapon in the hands of the military plutocrats (as
well as sub fascist gangs).
Otherwise,
if we execute any such before then, and try to make this part of our
central rev pol thrust, we would effectively by default,
find ourselves trying to resolve communal disputes without the neccessary macro
rev pol levers of state power, established or provisional, to bring
order (eg no blitz spirit against a great enemy holding the community together/
making it prepared to tolerate such war measures). And that would be a recipe
for chaos/degeneration of the revolutionary movement.
What
about (secret state aided/exploited) indisciplined, opportunistic, criminal
elements, outside of our ranks, claiming allegiance (to the movement) and
claiming to themselves, police powers which we most certainly do not advocate -
until preparing to take power. What are we supposed to do about
them?
We
are responsible only for the rev centre and we
should strictly police it.
As
for any such criminal bands, we should (as with other dangerous elements eg
drug dealers, organised crime and SUB fascist gangs, macro politcal
classical fascists of course targeted at the very detonation of the campaign)
clamp down on them as we prepare to take power.
Self
defense (using lethal force against sub fascist gangs, organised
crime, drugs gangs) should be defended/ supported, BUT
should be recognised that only I-Bs attacking macro
fascist elements (eg C18 etc) can provide a viable central offensive
thrust for the movement. So self defense against SUB fascist gangs
should not be connected to the movements central thrust. And for
the RDM to claim general police functions/powers (before preparing to
take power - such as would be the case if we targeted sub fascist gangs as part
of our central rev pol thrust) would be strategic suicide (we shall examine how
to counter the mafia threat later).
This
is the nightmarish grey area to be most feared. Where murderous racist
hooliganism teters on the edge of macro politics, a sub fascism -
not quite one the thing, not quite the other. UNLESS growing to the level of a
clear political threat, tipping over, and becoming a wholly proper rev pol
offensive target for I-Bs.
BUT,
if self defense (albeit legitimate & proper) is confused with a central
attack on fascist currents, it would by default, assume pretensions
to martial policing - BEFORE, with
the construction of a viable centre of power/preparation to seize power, this
becomes possible - resulting in chaos.
Of
all the strategic problems we must contend with, with the possible exception of
the doomsday threat (which we shall examine, including how to neutralise the
threat of oblivion later), this is perhaps, the one most to be feared.
In
conclusion, the only way the centre of gravity of a credible argument can be
held together against the immediate execution by the rev
movement as a movement of sub fascist gangs is through general
war, not only against our own classical fascists, but against the
most feared classical fascists of all, in GERMANY (Battle of Berlin).
Discipline
combined with audacity is the only way to hold the centre of gravity of our
mpvement together. We shall analyse the drugs Q in a later section of this
chapter.
NB* The execution of sub fascist elements presenting
a clear & present danger is not for us a criminal Q but a security Q
threatening the Revolution; as sub fascism, by cheapening the lives of a
section of society, creates a climate amenable to racial scapegoating; fascist
terror feeds its own savage spiral.
Except
vis organised fascist elements, as a general rule, propaganda is to be
prefered to terror, except in the cases where to fail to use deadly force,
would bring our entire campaign into disrepute. The purpose is to close down
the fascist murder option as an option to gain status in some elements
minds; as propaganda is useless without the exemplary
demonstration of a willingness to use force/
endure sacrifice, to back it up.
From
the above we can further deduce the following Rules of Revolutionary War:
At all times and at absolutely all costs, the
rev pol movement and its organs are to keep its military pol focus targeted at
the regimes legitimacy to prepare the way for the martialing of forces and
offensive seizure of power. On no account whatsoever is the `Defense of the
Movement' to be confused with `Self Defense'. Eg by attempting to police
communities BEFORE we are actually preparing to seize power (to repress drugs
gangs, sub fascist gangs etc).
For
the movement to otherwise attempt to displace the police, before the masses are
won over to the revolution; would mean that the generalised focusof the new
movement gets dragged away from targeting the regimes' legitimacy and into
localised conflict. And BECAUSE the generalised rev pol focus of the movement
would by defualt be lost, the community would not be united in the face of a
common enemy (by preparing for an uprising against the regime) this would lead
to the politicisation of petit disputes, leading to internecine conflict and
the degeneration of the movement.
The RDM is only responsible for continuous
militarily re-inforcement of the rev campaign/centre - targeted at the
regimes legitimacy coming under the ambit of Military Defense of the
Movement.
So while the RDM stewards its demos/meetings - this should NOT be
confused with POLICING, which by definition, is not a temporary measure
like stewarding (eg for as long as a meeting/demo lasts), but a permanently
ongoing process until the political or criminal threat has been finally
liquidated.
Military Defense of the Movement is defined as military action taking place within a framework
consistent with continuous military operations to defend/advance the
movement by delegitimising the regime. This is limited EXCLUSIVELY to:
i)The military liquidation of classical
fascists as a political threat.
ii)The military defense of the campaign, via territorial
demos.
iii)When masses won over/army won over/or
neutralised - The preperation & execution of an armed insurrection to seize
military/pol/econ power.
ALL other legitimate violent actions which fall
outside of this framework of continuous military pol operations to
defend the movement/delegitimise the regime, fall within the ambit of self
defense. Even wholly selfless political actions like stewarding a
meeting are technically classified as self defense, because it is not politically
viable for the movement to commit itself to re-inforce such actions
through continuous military operations. Though obviously,
when so linked to the macro rev pol campaign, much more can be
made of them politically, to build the movement.
But everyone that follows our rules of rev war,
including vis self defense, comes under our rev political protection.
This
includes self defense against sub fascist elements (that do not constitute a
macro political threat) in the community. And (even)when the police riot,
community repulsion qualifies as a mere continuum of self defense (as
such cannot be awarded official PoW status).
In such a wider instance of self defense, the
community NOT the RDM, should take temporary measure to police itself (until
the emergency has past). Including the elimination of drug gangs - or else it
will be left open to the charge of being orchestrated by them.
It
should not be ruled out that the police/regime will deliberately &
cynically rub the community up the wrong way in pursuing such elements in order
to give community self defense (as a response) an unsavoury dimension for
propaganda purposes. FIRM (capital) measures should thence be taken by
the community to counteract this threat.
But
for the reasons already stipulated, the RDM cannot/must not get involved as a
movement militarily, merely lend political support -where/as appropriate.
This purely political protection for self
defense is auxilliary to the generalised rev pol agenda of the campaign &
does not include military re-inforcement by the RDM as a movement.
Though the rev pol campaign itself be
militarily re-inforced by the movement in continuous operations, eg via armed
assaults on classical fascists, territorial demos & when masses won
over/army won over or neutralised - armed insurrection. (AT ALL TIMES AND AT
ALL COSTS, the movement must keep its military pol focus fixed on the enemys'
legitimacy in order to prepare the way for its overthrow).
Attempts to draw the RDM into policing the
community or re-inforcing community repulsion of police rioters, should be
countered simply by an extra savage intensification of the slaughter of
classical fascists to maintain the military political focus of our operational
agenda. (Followed up of course by the POW struggle, marches, territorial
demos).
At
ALL times, the movement must stick to its CORE (rev pol) agenda, and treat such
self defense issues for what they be, side issues; that must under no
circumstances whatever be allowed to deflect the movement from its core aims
& strategy - which would inevitably be fatal for the movement. Our policy
is: VICTORY AT ALL COSTS - Whoever cannot live with it, has no place
in our movement.
A further illustration of how our movement is
focused on the steel core, is that it is essentially machine orientated;
targeted against the military plutocratic machine never any
individual. So if Yeltsin (or any brit leader etc) be let of by parliament
after having been charged with impeachable offenses that parrallel our
own, this makes no difference to the revolution. For such still be
charged with serving the military plutocratic machine (that the rev machine
overthrows), rather than a personal charge - & be hanged for it just
the same.
This
machine orientated approach is another reason why the RDM cannot go
after murderers of Stephen Lawrence as such cannot be said to constitute a
component or (as with classical fascists, BNP/ C18 etc etc) clear potential
component of the military plutocratic machine.
SECTION (B)
(THE STEEL CORE - PART 2)
(Preserving the focus of
movement AT ALL COSTS)
(Dealing with the Twighlight world of
Extra Normal State Forces)
1) Private security/ police & private
prisons (Corporate Bastilles)/ slaveholders
2) Mafia
3) The psychiatric police
4) Rape of POWs (of men as well as women) as a
way to break revolutionaries.
NB* The principles underlying anti mercenary/
mafia struggle hold good for the struggle against cellular fascism.
Private Police
If
private security police deploy against us on territorial demos, then as they do
not possess legitimacy, being (whatever the PR) mercenary forces, then
we can/ should respond by attacking the emergent Tons Tons Macoutes at their
HQs (razing it/ them to the ground) & liquidating the managerial personnel.
Unfortunately the enemy will, if going down this route, almost certainly not
send against us sad cannon fodder (such as the anti roads protesters faced),
but ex - SAS personnel (from the likes of Sandline/ Executive Outcomes etc) as
their `bitter ender' Securitate - a la Ceaucescu. We warn comrades NOT
to underestimate the savage ruthlessness of the enemy, & its determination
to construct a hardcore (around which its forces can gather/ crystalise) out of
all available elements - we MUST assume the worst.
But
the private prisons/ slaveholders are a more complicated Q. Eg to storm such
corporate Bastilles is in effect an act of insurgency - an attempt to assume
state power - as opposed to mere preparatory weakening of enemy state power.
But
what if the state police (eg on `performance related pay'), have become no more
than their slavecatchers? What is the sign that the state police have
crossed the line, become no more than corporate agents & therefore a
legitimate target (as with a private police attacking us on territorial demos)?
Only
when the state itself has lost legitmacy or when they become corporate police
(almost certainly the former long before the latter), then we drive them of the
streets as corporate agents, before the insurrection as a prelude to it.
The Mafia
The
mafia in effect we have partially covered, vis (community) self defense actions
(SDAs) in the context of a mass rev pol campaign focused on the steel core - eg
cannot became the political focus however neccessary & heroically selfless
the (non RDM) irregular SDA units engaged in this bitter arena of
conflict (we shall examine later how revolutionaries
can make the inevitable enemy attempts
to accuse us of genuine criminal activity backfire on the enemy).
The
nature of the threat we are likely to face however is of a combined mafia/
mercenary (Executive Outcomes/ Sandline & the like etc - probably including
foreign/ Russian elements) force - subcontracted from MI5 & financed by
city/ corporate interests (via hard to trace offshore accounts - funnelled via
mainland conduits). A highly formidable & flexible military political formation.
The
defensive war against the mafia is intelligence led.
1) Rev movement develops, detonates &
expands.
2) Enemy deploys mafia against us.
3) The mobilised community form defensive
intelligence based irregular units to hunt down the mafia.
4) The RDM keeps its focus on the core (its regular
incipient state forces remain open formations)
Eg
the RDM does not fall into the trap of trying to conduct an intelligence
based military campaign itself. It is & must remain an open military
political movement/ formation. Rather the mobilised community (NOT the RDM)
must form irregular intelligence based units to combat such enemy formations -
to cover the backs of the RDM.
Eg
the RDM does not become/ develop a centralised secret police - the mass of
citizenry/ community must in effect become a secret police to hunt down this
enemy formation.
If
the RDM attempted to do this, it be too easy to infiltrate & wreck (&
if it could win by such measures would become a secret police tyranny itself). Only
the community/ citizenry can insure sufficient dilution of enemy counter
intelligence, to enable victory & insure that (as an open formation)
the RDM does not become a tyranny itself.
What
about sweeps/ accussations/ arrests vis enemy claims that we are engaged as a
movement in policing/ gangsterism etc? Eg charges that we are guilty of NON
political crimes (for we cannot claim
to ourselves moral exemption from laws which even we
regard as legitimate - even if charged wrongly by a
fundamtally criminal regime)? How do we prevent the movement being destroyed by
such?
While
those swept up by such cannot technically be awarded offical POW status, in the
sense that the movement links a campaigns for their release with its rev
pol program, we can/ must turn the heat back on the enemy.
Eg
via hungers strikes, but NOT for one's own release, but for the release of all
info & as part of the popular indictment of the nuclear plutocratic regime
for its crimes; also vis support for the USA regime's CIA backed narcocracies/
mafiosi (in the name of `stability' & anti communism), etc etc etc.
Eg
even if guilty, if innocent (or demanding trial by the revolution) it is
still possible to emphasise that the criminal regime must not be let of the
hook through such a shabby trick to avoid cadres rev charges against the regime
(by rounding them up on trumped up criminal charges).
OUR
wider appeal to citizenry be that, `if you think us scum, and
if you tolerate the most dangerous nuclear plutocratic criminals the world has known,
what does that make you?' ONLY through blood sacrifice can the idea transcend
the petty & personal (we shall return to & elaborate on this point in a
later sub section vis my personal role in the revolution).
Against
the mafia/ mercenary/ corporate nexus, the pattern of struggle is that:
1) the regime is being/ (is partially)
delegitimised.
2) The partially delegitimised response is to
try & drag the RDM into carrying out policing operations & setting up
an easily infiltratible secret police network, enabling the enemy to destroy
the movement by infiltration & getting the movement dragged down into
politicising petty community conflicts, leading to internecine strife.
3)The mafia (defending the partially
delegitimated regime) possesses a
political characteristic similar to that of an occupying power, eg it is an
particularly unpopular agency in itself,
which anyone in the commnity can have a crack at (but curiously NOT the
RDM which must as an open REGULAR formation, concentrate on attacking the regimes'
legitimacy - or else it will get dragged into the mire of secret policing/
petty communal disputes & consequant internecine strife.
4)Even though the enemy will try & sweep us
all up on trumped up criminal charges, we can still assert the primacy of the
military plutocracies crimes via supremacy of blood sacrifice/ immortality of
the idea over military plutocracy.
The failure of the Italian anti mafia
struggle
While
the Italian political - judicial anti mafiosi have been undeniably heroic, they
have failed to deliver a killer blow.
In
Italy, it was impossible for any halfway honest elements in the state to
address lumpen crime without clashing with the core establishment itself (which
with CIA assistance, used tyhe mafia post WWII, to crush/ contain the classical
far left). Therefore to take on the mafia has revolutionary implications (in
Britain there has historically, opium wars/ imperial plunder notwithstanding,
in recent centuaries been much less direct interlinkage between top
order military plutocratic crime & lumpen organised crime - though as the
new rev movement develops, the plutocratic elite shall not flinch from the most
ruthless encouragement/ deployment/ use of a/ the mafia in a bid to hold onto
power).
But
without taking on the social pol/econ order itself per se, such political
judicial struggles could only lead to a perpetual but inconclusive decapitation
of the hydra headed beast; & consequant exhuastion/ despair at the
struggles' inconclusiveness (leading to the inertial strengthening of the vile
idea of an `historic compromise' with the forces of lawlessness &
disorder).
Why?
The
failure to set the masses in revolutionary motion means that neither the
economy nor the state can be effectively freed from mafia control - the Italian
anti mafia struggle was effectively a ghost revolution, delegitimising
the regime, but without active deployment of the mass force to finish
the job & consolidate victory. This is because the political - judicial
struggle was essentially dependant on
the same state which acts as a block on revolutionary change.
So
from a different angle, we see again, the paradox of a rev current contained
within & subordinate to the very same enemy hegemonic coontrol over the
agenda, it be struggling (and tragically failing) to break.
The Psychiatric Police
Another
fearsome Q is that of state psychiatry being deployed as a weapon to take cadres out of the arena.
This
is well known vis 3rd Reich/ USSR. Less
well known/ publicised is the way that the USA has crried out similar actions/
experiments against/ on, its own people. Notably MKUltra.
It
must be clear that revolutionaries cannot seriously be expected to submit
themselves to examination of their rational/ logical faculties by state
apparatchiks that are neither sympathetic with nor understand our aims & objectives - that constitute in
fact just another arm of the police apparatus; and that would have a vested interest in neutralising
cadres by filing them away as `barmy' to prevent a political trial or campaign.
That
said, however lamentable the psychiatric police are, (just as there are
criminals that the conventional police try to catch - even if they would both
unite against the common revolutionary threat) there are people who are
not in control of their logical faculties. And it is this fact that such
matters concerning the individual mind consist by definition of unverifiables
(eg macro pol/econ logic/ evidence can be pointed out clearly, but vis
the individual, there are no such verifiables - depends on the word of
individuals concerned) that prevents the RDM (as a movment from) bombing/
shooting such as fascist abductors.
Eg
there is also the threat of the enemy deploying such dangerous elements as
agents in our ranks to counter such a strategy - so that if we seek as a movement to assert the primacy of the
political over all else (in this regard) it can be made to rebound on us.
This
looks hellishly insoluble, as if the enemy has got us by the balls & we
will have to eat shit over this - without comeback.
But,
there is still the self defense action weapon.
So
that in dealing with POWs, psychiatric policemen take their life in their hands
if they deprive cadres of prisoner status - and/ or assist in a pre-emptive sweep
of cadres (courtesy of Jack Straws' proposed law to enable the rounding up of
people that have committed NO crime, adjudged to have a `personality disorder',
like hostility to nuclear plutocrats).
It
is unfortunately impossible to re-inforce politically or militarily such self
defense actions (due to aforementioned unverifiables). But if for example, I
were so treated (so that I was no longer able to function as a revolutionary),
after a formal announcement by myself of withdrawal from the revolution, a
loyal friend will attire my living corpse in a Christian Dior dynamite ensemble
with matching electronic accessories, in preparation for a memorable reunion
with those responsible.
Rape of POWs (of men as well as women) as a way
to break revolutionaries.
As
for things like rape, I can only make a very rough projection as to how one
can/ will react:
(I
anticipate that) After a sharp intense period of absolutely debilitating
demorilisation (possibly more acute immediately after cessation due to a reflex
expectation that one should feel better but does not), there be a plateauing of
despair.
It
is (hopefully) then that a solution can be implemented with reference to
the fundamental character of the problem.
The
key problem (being so poleaxed) springs from a sense of powerlessness,
that one is reduced to absolutely nothing, that all one has worked for/ hoped
for, all that is of value in oneself is razed to the ground - by this proof of
powerlessness. `You think yourself significant, yet your body, your soul (it
feels) be raped to the core - you are powerless, therefore, you
are nothing'.
The
solution (putting it crudely) is to take power back. Not just by talking about
it, not just (or even principally) by crushing the immediate perpetrators. But
much more critically, by demonstrating to oneself & to the whole world,
that whatever one has endured, we can still on the battlefield take down those
in power - that are vastly more powerful than one's immediate rapists - so
restoring power to oneself. Resurrection through bloody affirmation of
the immortality & supremacy of the idea, over nuclear plutocracy.
By
demonstrating to the world that all such atrocities (the enemy commits) will
achieve is to turn us into more machine like soldiers; squeezing out the last
vestiges of instinctive concern for one's own personal safety - an absolute
nightmare to confront.
It
goes against all the precepts of conventional psychiatric police practice for
sure, but for revolutionaries, blasting 10 different shades of shite out of the
fascist/ military plutocratic enemy is likely to be the best therapy.
From
the above we can further deduce the following Rules of Revolutionary War:
If private security police deploy against us on
territorial demos, then as they do not possess legitimacy, being (whatever the
PR) mercenary forces, then we can/ should respond by attacking the
emergent Tons Tons Macoutes at their HQs (razing it/ them to the ground) &
liquidating the managerial personnel. Until then we must ignore them.
Do NOT storm the corporate Bastilles UNTIL the
launch of the insurgency.
Under No circumstances should the RDM try &
form a secret police to hunt down the mafia, as too easy to infiltrate/ &
lead to the RDM getting dragged into policing.
But we should encourage the community to form intelligence
led irregular SDA (Self Defense Action) units to hunt the mafia down - so
as to keep RDM (regular) forces focused on the steel core - though the
RDM can/ should target mercenary HQs as/ when (their alliance with the mafia makes
this) appropriate.
But it is
the OPEN formations that possess (incipient/ evolving) revolutionary legitimacy
(as an incipient constitutional govt/ framework) even if the irregular
formations are vastly greater in number.
When the enemy tries to round up cadres or SDA
unit members/ paint us as criminals - then we cannot be given offical POW status. BUT we CAN go on hunger strike
to turn the heat back on the enemy vis popular indictment of the criminal
nuclear plutocratic regime.
Vis force feeding of hunger strikers, irregular or regular
armed forces should bear in mind that to target the home secretary/ PM or Crown
(who bears primary responsibility) constitutes a military assault on the regime
before it has been delegitimised rendering it clearly unviable. Instead limit
attacks to those with defineable immediate responsibility, up to &
including, especially, the prison governor. For such a
grave crime, their mode of execution should (if circumstances allow) be
exemplary. Full PoW status to be accorded.
To
threaten the children of such imperils the integrity of our `neutralising
doomsday' strategy (which is dependant on our gaurentees of good treatment of
the enemies children, UNLESS the enemy uses Nukes, biological, chemical
weapons); & therefore constitutes a capital offence. Given the enormous dangers of MI5 hoax calls (& worse) etc claiming
to be from our forces, unfortunately such intelligence led irregular
actions to counter threats to the enemy's children, cannot be accorded PoW status.
