U.S.-backed commandos kill blind Colombian revolutionary leader
Fight Back | fightbacknews.org | 2021-05-28
On May 17, a U.S.-backed Colombian commando unit, acting like bounty hunters, illegally crossed into the Venezuelan state of Zulia to murder Colombian rebel leader Jesus Santrich. Like the criminal gangsters they are, the commandos cut off his left finger to verify his identity to claim the $1 million bounty cosponsored by the U.S. State Department and the Colombian President Ivan Duque. | One might be forced to ask the question: why would the U.S. and Colombian governments place a $1 million bounty for a dead-or-alive capture of a blind 55-year-old former peace negotiator who was in a small mountain town near th…

From Zapata to the Zapatistas: Mexico's "other" Commune
Joris Leverink | roarmag.org | 2021-05-28
"What is the Commune, that Sphinx so tantalizing to the bourgeois mind?" Karl Marx asked in The Civil War in France, his manifesto-like analysis written for the International Workers' Association. For the case of the Paris Commune, which lasted for barely 72 days between March 18 and May 28, 1871, Marx seemed to have his answer ready: "Its true secret was this. It was essentially a working-class government, the produce of the struggle of the producing against the appropriating class, the political form at last discovered under which to work out the economical emancipation of labor." | What happened, according to…

Lenin Went to Dance in the Snow to Celebrate the Paris Commune and the Soviet Republic
_____ | popularresistance.org | 2021-05-28
On 28 May 1871, one hundred and fifty years ago, the Paris Commune collapsed after seventy-two days. The workers of Paris created the Commune on 18 March, building on the wave of revolutionary optimism that first lapped on the shores of France in 1789 and then again in 1830 and 1848. The immediate spur for the Commune was Prussia's victory over France in a futile war.
