[GCI-ICG] Resistencia proletaria a la guerra – Yugoslavia 1999
/ English / Français / Español / Italiano / Deutsch / PDF /
Presentación de Guerra de Clases
Presentamos aquí un texto extraído de la revista Comunismo n°46 de febrero de 2001 del Grupo Comunista Internacionalista dedicado a la guerra de los Balcanes en 1999 (hace exactamente un cuarto de siglo), o más precisamente a su enésimo capítulo: Kosovo y el bombardeo de Yugoslavia por parte de la OTAN, así como a la resistencia proletaria a esta guerra.
Nos centramos aquí principalmente en la lucha librada por el proletariado contra la dictadura de la economía en los Balcanes y en el desarrollo de la guerra contra esta lucha. El texto analiza también la ideología que intenta camuflar las verdaderas razones de esta guerra a los ojos de los proletarios y subraya algunos elementos de la reacción proletaria contra ella.
Hoy, una vez más nos enfrentamos a la guerra y, en consecuencia, a todos los ataques posibles de la burguesía contra el proletariado. Aunque la guerra es inherente al capital, aunque la función real de toda guerra ha sido siempre servir al capital y aplastar a la clase subversiva, parece que nos acercamos cada vez más a un conflicto generalizado a escala planetaria, una nueva guerra mundial cuyas modalidades se están haciendo tangibles.
Todos expresamos nuestra resistencia a esta enésima guerra capitalista, con la fuerza que hemos podido reunir. Todos llamamos a la movilización proletaria contra la guerra en ambos bandos, en cualquier parte del mundo en que tenga lugar. Exigimos la única respuesta proletaria a la guerra capitalista, a saber, el derrotismo revolucionario conscientemente organizado y estructurado para derribar a nuestra propia burguesía y, en consecuencia, a la burguesía mundial en su conjunto. Todos llevamos la bandera del internacionalismo proletario, de la revolución proletaria.
Pero todos conocemos también el aislamiento, la debilidad de nuestras fuerzas frente a la propaganda burguesa, frente a los belicistas disfrazados de “anarquistas” o “comunistas”, frente a la inactividad del proletariado o a su falsa conciencia expresada en su “voluntad” de defender la “patria” o de promover el retorno a la “paz” (que no es otra cosa que la otra cara de la guerra capitalista cotidiana) y a la situación anterior de explotación “normal”.
Cuando hablamos de internacionalismo, esto significa captar y desarrollar la dimensión internacional del proletariado como clase. El capital y sus relaciones sociales, expresadas en diversas guerras, son una realidad global. El comunismo como proyecto proletario y proceso opuesto al capital es un movimiento universal y el internacionalismo es un elemento decisivo en la práctica del proletariado.
El proletariado no tiene patria. Debe oponerse al nacionalismo de su “propia” burguesía, sus explotadores directos, y desarrollar así una práctica internacionalista. Consideramos que nuestra tarea es participar en esta tendencia, fomentarla y desarrollarla como una comunidad de lucha unida contra el capital mundial, una comunidad en la que se basa la organización internacional e internacionalista del proletariado.
Que los elementos de nuestra lucha de ayer, desarrollados aquí, sirvan a las luchas actuales (Ucrania, Gaza…) y a la preparación de las luchas futuras: ¡la transformación de la guerra y la paz capitalistas en una revolución social mundial!

Présentation de Guerre de Classe
Nous présentons ici un texte extrait de la revue Communisme n°51, mai 2001 du Groupe Communiste Internationaliste consacrée à la guerre des Balkans en 1999 (il y a donc exactement un quart de siècle), ou plus exactement à son énième chapitre : le Kosovo et le bombardement de la Yougoslavie par l’OTAN, ainsi qu’à la résistance prolétarienne à cette guerre.
Nous nous focalisons ici principalement sur la lutte que le prolétariat a menée contre la dictature de l’économie dans la région des Balkans et le développement de la guerre à l’encontre de cette lutte. Le texte analyse également l’idéologie qui s’efforce de camoufler aux yeux des prolétaires les véritables raisons de cette guerre et souligne quelques éléments de la réaction prolétarienne face à cette dernière.
Une fois de plus, aujourd’hui, nous faisons face à la guerre et conséquemment à toutes les attaques possibles de la bourgeoisie contre le prolétariat. Bien que la guerre soit inhérente au capital, bien que la fonction réelle de chaque guerre ait toujours été de servir le capital et d’écraser la classe subversive, il semble que nous soyons de plus en plus proches d’un conflit généralisé à l’échelle planétaire, d’une nouvelle guerre mondiale dont les modalités deviennent tangibles.
Tous, nous exprimons, selon nos forces plus ou moins faibles, notre résistance à cette énième guerre capitaliste. Tous, nous appelons à la mobilisation prolétarienne contre la guerre dans les deux camps, quelle que soit la région du monde où elle se déroule. Nous revendiquons la seule et unique réponse prolétarienne à la guerre capitaliste, à savoir le défaitisme révolutionnaire consciemment organisé et structuré pour abattre notre propre bourgeoisie et, par conséquent, la bourgeoisie mondiale dans son ensemble. Tous, nous portons le drapeau de l’internationalisme prolétarien, celui de la révolution prolétarienne.
Mais tous nous connaissons aussi l’isolement, la faiblesse de nos forces face à la propagande bourgeoise, face aux bellicistes déguisés en « anarchistes » ou en « communistes », face à l’inactivité du prolétariat ou à sa fausse conscience exprimée dans sa « volonté » soit de défendre la « patrie », soit de promotionner le retour à la « paix » (qui n’est rien d’autre que l’autre visage de la guerre capitaliste quotidienne) et à la situation antérieure de l’exploitation « normale ».
Lorsque nous mettons en avant l’internationalisme, cela signifie saisir et développer la dimension internationale du prolétariat en tant que classe. Le capital et ses rapports sociaux qui s’expriment dans différentes guerres sont une réalité mondiale. Le communisme en tant que projet prolétarien et processus opposé au capital est un mouvement universel et l’internationalisme est un élément décisif dans la pratique du prolétariat.
Le prolétariat n’a pas de patrie. Il doit s’opposer au nationalisme de sa « propre » bourgeoisie, à ses exploiteurs directs et développer ainsi une pratique internationaliste. Nous considérons que notre tâche est de participer, d’encourager et de développer cette tendance en tant que communauté de lutte unie contre le capital mondial – une communauté sur laquelle repose l’organisation internationale et internationaliste du prolétariat.
Que les éléments de notre lutte d’hier, développés ici, puissent servir aux luttes présentes (Ukraine, Gaza…) et à la préparation des luttes futures : la transformation de la guerre et de la paix capitaliste en révolution sociale mondiale !

Class War’s Presentation
We present here a text from the Internationalist Communist Group’s review in French Communisme n°51, May 2001 (that we quickly translated in English), devoted to the Balkan war of 1999 (that is exactly a quarter of a century ago), or more precisely to its umpteenth chapter: Kosovo and the NATO bombardment of Yugoslavia, as well as the proletarian resistance to this war.
We focus here mainly on the proletariat’s struggle against the dictatorship of the economy in the Balkans, and the development of the war against this struggle. The text also analyzes the ideology that is striving to camouflage the real reasons for this war in the eyes of the proletariat, and highlight some elements of the proletarian reaction to it.
Today, once again, we are facing the war and all the possible attacks of the bourgeoisie against proletariat that it brings. Although war is inherent to capital, although the real function of every single war has always been to serve capital and crush the subversive class, it seems that we are closer and closer to a generalized conflict of a global scale, a new World War whose modalities are becoming tangible.
According to our more or less weak forces, all of us express our resistance to this yet another capitalist war. All of us call for proletarian mobilization against the war on both sides, regardless of in which region of the world it is being waged. We claim one and only proletarian response to capitalist war, i.e. revolutionary defeatism consciously organized and structured to bring down our own bourgeoisie and therefore the world bourgeoisie as a whole. All of us uphold the flag of proletarian internationalism, that of proletarian revolution.
But all of us also experience the isolation, the weakness of our forces, face to face to the bourgeois propaganda, face to face to the warmongers disguised in “anarchists” or “communists”, face to face to the inactivity of the proletariat or its false consciousness expressed in its “will” either to defend the “homeland”, or to praise the return to “peace” (which is nothing else than the other face of everyday capitalist war) as the previous situation of “normal” exploitation.
While talking about internationalism, this means to grasp and to develop the international dimension of the proletariat as a class. Capital and its social relations expressing themselves in different wars are a worldwide reality. Communism as a proletarian project and a process opposed to the capital is a universal movement and internationalism is a decisive element in the practice of the proletariat.
The proletariat has no homeland. It has to stand in opposition to the nationalism of its “own” bourgeoisie, against its direct exploiters and thus develop internationalist practice. We consider that our task is to participate, encourage and develop this tendency as a united community of struggle against global capital – a community on which the international and internationalist organization of the proletariat stands.
May the elements of yesterday’s struggle, developed here, be of use to present struggles (Ukraine, Gaza…) and to the preparation of future struggles: the transformation of capitalist war and peace into world social revolution!

En Ukraine, des anarchistes sous l’uniforme ?
« Il est tragique mais non dépourvu d’enseignement de se rappeler que durant les deux dernières guerres mondiales le monde ouvrier, comme les autres, a, dans sa majorité, marché dans chaque camp derrière le drapeau de ses propres exploiteurs en dépit de la lutte héroïque d’une poignée d’ouvriers et d’intellectuels révolutionnaires. »
Ngo Van
« Brigades anarchistes », « milices libertaires », « bataillons antiautoritaires », « combattants d’extrême gauche », « antifas », « libertaires », etc., le vocabulaire est assez confus et reflète la difficile appréhension du phénomène. Malgré tout, la plupart des grands médias occidentaux ont consacré quelques lignes ou quelques minutes à un aspect a priori exotique de la guerre en Ukraine : la présence de militants anarchistes et d’extrême gauche dans les rangs de ceux qui luttent contre l’armée russe. Voilà qui n’est pas commun !
Depuis le printemps 2022, le discours de ces combattants a été relayé en Occident au sein des milieux anarchistes, libertaires, antifas, squat, voire autonomes ; loin de paraître déboussolés, ces Ukrainiens s’adressent à « nous », présentent leurs actions comme un modèle politique à suivre et demandent notre soutien financier ; il n’est donc pas inintéressant ni inapproprié de s’attarder, y compris de manière critique, sur ce qu’ils nous disent, mais aussi sur leurs pratiques, qui, curieusement, ne sont décrites que de manière très succincte et, le plus souvent, dans un flou lexical déconcertant. Manière d’esquisser une image du militantisme révolutionnaire européen contemporain, de ses influences, de ses limites1.
[HL12] Leur guerre, nos morts (fr, de)
/ Français / Deutsch /
Nous avons reçu et nous publions
Trois ans déjà ! Plusieurs centaines de milliers de cadavres et trois fois plus de mutilés. La guerre qui touche l’est du continent européen a transformé cet endroit en un gigantesque charnier. Depuis 1945, l’Europe n’avait plus connu une telle hécatombe sur son sol. Au front ou à l’arrière, le quotidien de millions d’individus s’en trouve bouleversé. Mais les forces militaires en présence n’ont qu’un seul but, la victoire sur le champ de bataille, quels que soient les coûts financiers, les pertes humaines. Les appareils de production respectifs sont transformés en économies de guerre. Les usines tournent à plein régime pour produire tanks, obus, canons, fusils automatiques, avions, uniformes ou drones de combats. De nouvelles usines sortent du sol et mobilisent toutes les ressources du pays. Des milliers d’ouvriers sont contraints de travailler dans des conditions toujours plus pénibles, justifiées par la défense de la sacro-sainte « Mère-Patrie ». Mais ce n’est pas suffisant. Chaque adversaire s’adresse à ses alliés pour qu’ils lui fournissent de quoi frapper plus fort. Avec une production d’armes qui bat son plein, avec une industrie de destruction qui prend toujours plus d’ampleur, les quatre coins de la planète se retrouvent impliqués dans cette guerre. On espérait en secret que cela ne se passerait pas, mais c’est fait. Ces saloperies de bruits de bottes et de sons du canon sont bel et bien entrés dans nos existences et font désormais partie de notre quotidien. La guerre n’est plus une hypothèse lointaine, confinée à des pays exotiques, elle fait partie de notre présent et d’aucuns voudraient que nous la vivions comme notre seul futur possible.

[AW2024] KRAS-IWA: To The Internationalist Anti-War Conference In Prague (en, fr, cs, es, nl)
/ English / Français / Čeština / Español / Nederlands /
Dear comrades!
We in the KRAS-IWA, as heirs to the anarchist anti-militarist tradition of the 1915 Manifesto, welcome participants in the international conference who have gathered to speak out against capitalist war and capitalist so-called “peace” and to denounce the supposed leftists and pseudo-anarchists who take sides in the capitalist wars. We hope that this forum will be an important step in establishing practical interaction from below and across all organizational boundaries between all genuine anti-war and anti-militarist social revolutionary forces.
Unfortunately, the situation in this country and the difficulty of communication with foreign Europe do not give us the opportunity to directly participate in the conference. But in spirit we are with you. We are sending you a statement of our position on the issue of war and ask you to familiarize the conference participants with it.
International Secretariate of KRAS-IWA

[GCI-ICG] We are neither Israeli nor Palestinian… [Book]
/ English / Français / Español / Deutsch / Čeština / Italiano / PDF /
Class War’s Presentation
Here we present you the text written by Internationalist Communist Group [GCI-ICG], that was originally published in its central review Communism n. 54 in 2003, during “the Second Intifada” uprising. It is a very important contribution to the deconstruction, denunciation and dismantlement of the bourgeois myth of a national community, supposedly bridging the unbridgeable class conflict between the exploited – the proletariat and the exploiters – the bourgeoisie.
Against this myth, that in the territory of “Israel/Palestine” takes form of either “Jewish homeland” or “Palestinian national liberation”, this text imposes the perspective of proletarian militant subjectivity. It brings forward many examples of class struggle in the territories under the control of either the Fatah-led Palestinian government, and Hamas at the time of writing not yet in government, but ascending and already fulfilling their role of the Islamic social-democracy, or of the Zionist regime. Nowadays, Hamas has become the ruling faction in Gaza and the brutality and intensity of the war, in particular extermination tactics of IDF in Gaza reached the unprecedented levels, but the insistence of communists on revolutionary defeatism without compromise and against all bourgeois falsifications does not change.
Historically, the social-democratic forces, have occasionally adopted the concept of revolutionary defeatism, but applied it so inconsistently – only to wars in the past, wars on the other side of the globe or wars, where none of their bourgeois allies were involved in – that it became only an empty (and manipulative) rhetoric.
Against this, ICG stresses the invariance and the central role of the revolutionary defeatist position in the communist program, the necessity of struggle for defeat of “our own” side in any capitalist war, against the bourgeoisie in “our own” country, the necessity to fraternize with the proletarians in the “enemy” camp, all this regardless of which side of the inter-bourgeois conflict is considered “the attacker” or “the attacked”, “the oppressor” or “the oppressed”, “the colonizer” or “the colonized”.
To get this point across, ICG references a leaflet “Jewish workers, comrades” produced by the group RKD (Revolutionäre Kommunisten Deutschlands or Revolutionary Communists of Germany) and distributed in the height of the biggest capitalist slaughter of proletariat so far, on May 1st, 1943. The leaflet is also attached in the bulletin, with comments by ICG as well as brief history of RKD and other revolutionary groups at the time of “WW2”.
Last point we want to make concerns the ICG organization itself. We consider their decades long activity and their contribution to the reappropriation of the historical program of the proletarian class by the community of struggle to be particularly important and very close to our positions. It is also important to make a point, that the historical ICG does not exist anymore. As any militant organization in the history of the movement, despite all its strengths, it was not immune to the internal contradictions. Eventually, couple of years ago these contradictions led to its dissolution as an organization keeping its militant continuity. Several ex-militants (in a literal sense), forming so-called Kilombo collective, keep talking and signing their materials in ICG’s name but, in reality, have completely hijacked the programmatic content of the group in favor of vulgar, idealist and conspiracy-theory prone ideological fantasy. We have to warn our comrades of this falsification.

Presentazione di Guerra di classe
Ecco vi presentiamo il testo del Gruppo Comunista Internazionalista [GCI-ICG], originalmente pubblicato nella sua rivista centrale Comunismo n. 54 in 2003, durante rivolta della “Seconda Intifada”. Si tratta di un contribuito molto importante alla decostruzione, denuncia e smantellamento del mito borghese della comunità nazionale, apparentemente riconciliare il conflitto della classe inconciliabile tra gli sfruttati – il proletariato e gli sfruttatori – la borghesia.
Contro questo mito, che nel territorio di “Israele/Palestina” prende la forma di sia “la patria per gli ebrei” sia “la liberazione nazionale palestinese”, questo materiale impone la prospettiva della soggettività militante proletaria. Porta avanti molti esempi della lotta di classe nei territori controllati sia dal governo palestinese guidato dal Fatah e, al momento della stesura non ancora parte del governo, già ascendente e svolgendo il suo ruolo della socialdemocrazia islamica – Hamas, sia dal regime sionista. Ora, Hamas è diventato la fazione al potere in Gaza, e la brutalità e intensità della guerra, in particolare la tattica del sterminio dalle IDF hanno raggiunto i livelli senza precedenti, ma l’insistenza dei comunisti al disfattismo rivoluzionario senza compromessi e contro tutte le falsificazioni borghesi non cambia.
Storicamente le forze socialdemocratiche hanno occasionalmente adottato il concetto del disfattismo rivoluzionario, ma lo hanno applicato in modo così inconsistente – solo alle guerre del passato, alle guerre dall’altra parte del mondo o alle guerre dove non si schiera nessun alleato borghese di loro – che è diventato solo la vuota (e manipolatore) retorica.
Contro questo, il GCI sottolinea l’invarianza e centralità al programma comunista della posizione di disfattismo rivoluzionario, la necessità di lotta per sconfitta del “nostro proprio” campo in ogni guerra capitalista, contro la borghesia in “nostro proprio” paese; necessità di fraternizzazione con i proletari nel campo “nemico”, tutto ciò a prescindere da quale lato del conflitto interborghese è considerato “l’aggressore” o “l’aggredito”, “l’oppressore” o “l’oppresso”, “il colonizzatore” o “il colonizzato”.
Per sottolineare questo punto, il GCI riferisce a un volantino “Gli operai ebrei, compagni” prodotto da un gruppo RKD (Revolutionäre Kommunisten Deutschlands o I Comunisti Rivoluzionari di Germania) e distribuito nella piena carneficina capitalista del proletariato più grande finora, il primo maggio 1943. Il volantino è allegato nella rivista con le note da GCI, insieme alla corta storia di RKD e altri gruppi rivoluzionari del tempo di “Seconda Guerra Mondiale”.
L’ultimo punto che vogliamo fare riguarda la stessa organizzazione GCI. Noi consideriamo loro attività decennale e loro contribuito alla riappropriazione del programma storico proletario dalla comunità di lotta, di essere dell’importanza particolare e di essere molto vicina alle nostre posizioni. È anche importante sottolineare, che il GCI storico non esiste più. Proprio come nessun’altra organizzazione militante nella storia del movimento, nonostante i sui punti di forza, la non era immune alle contraddizioni interne. Alla fine queste contraddizioni hanno portato hanno portato alla sua dissoluzione come un’organizzazione mantenendo la sua continuità militante. Alcuni ex-militanti (in senso letterale), hanno creato il cosiddetto collettivo “Kilombo” e continua a parlare e segnare i suoi materiali in nome di GCI, ma in realtà hanno completamente falsificato il contenuto programmatico del gruppo a favore di una fantasia ideologica volgare, idealista e predisposta alle teorie di complotto. Dobbiamo avvertire i nostri compagni di questa falsificazione.

Vaše války! Naši mrtví! „Sir! No Sir!“

- Teze o válce na Ukrajině (ASI)
- Válka kapitálu na Ukrajině (Clandestina)
- Vaše války – naši mrtví (FAO)
- Doslov: Revoluční defétismus (Třídní válka)
Úvod Třídní války
Představujeme tři texty (které jsme přeložili do češtiny a do francouzštiny) původně publikované z iniciativy diskuzní skupiny „Balkan Anarchists Against War“ na Balkan Anarchist Bookfair (BAB 2023), který se konal ve Slovinsku začátkem loňského července.
K obecnému rámci, ve kterém se tato diskuse odehrávala, i k textům samotným, bychom chtěli říci několik věcí.
Nejprve uveďme důvody, proč jsme se, poté, co jsme si dopisovali s organizátory a diskutovali s mnoha soudruhy kolem nás, kteří si také kladli otázku, zda na bookfair jet či nejet, fyzicky tohoto knižního veletrhu nezúčastnili.
Hlavním problémem byl pro nás postoj (nebo nedostatek jasného postoje), který organizátoři BAB 2023 nakonec zaujali vůči přístupu anarchistického hnutí k válce na Ukrajině.
Zásadní otázkou, která nás všechny znepokojovala, byla podpora některých anarchistů, ale i celých organizací, pro ukrajinskou stranu v současné válce a prostor, který by jí mohl být v rámci BAB poskytnut.
Pozorně sledujeme diskusi na téma revoluční defétismus versus podpora jedné válečné strany, diskusi, která v hnutí aktuálně probíhá, a která se dotkla i organizátorů knižního veletrhu, protože naplánovali diskuzi „Balkánští anarchisté proti válce“, jenž se touto otázkou zabývala.
Pro nás, jako každá diskuse, která nemá být jen sterilní prezentací dvou protichůdných názorů, musí být i diskuse o anarchistickém postoji k válce založena na sdílených předpokladech, na společných postojích, kterými jsou pro nás antimilitarismus, internacionalismus a revoluční defétismus. Stručně řečeno, odmítnutí podporovat jednu nebo druhou válčící stranu.
Má-li anarchistické hnutí (a obecně proletářské hnutí ztělesňující potřebu zrušit kapitalismus jako celek) diskutovat o tom, co dělat ve válce, musí diskutovat o tom, jak zorganizovat odpor proti ní v rámci revoluční perspektivy (konkrétní akce i programové pozice), a ne o tom, kterou stranu podpořit.
Dát prostor válečným štváčům v anarchistickém hnutí (v proletářském táboře) a v jeho diskusi pro nás znamená zabránit právě této debatě o životně důležitých otázkách proletariátu.

/ English / Čeština / Français / Deutsch / Nederlands / Italiano / Español / Português /
The collective organizing the May Action Week in Prague is calling for an anti-war demonstration to take place on Friday 24 May 2024 at 5pm on Palacký Square.
War is a phenomenon that not only theoretically, but also very concretely intrudes upon everyone’s life. Under the current social order, there is no boundary separating life in war from life in peace. We are all at war. Only the ways in which the reality of war affects us differ. Some are living on the home front in bombed-out cities, others are sent to the front to serve as cannon fodder, and some others are forced to sell their labor force, which turns the wheels of the war economy. We are all also targets of war propaganda designed to induce us to engage in one form of war or another. Finally, we are also all indoctrinated with the so-called duty to sacrifice ourselves in war for the sake of the country, the nation, the people, the economy, democracy, religion…

[GCI-ICG] The West Bank, Gaza, Jerusalem… the bourgeoisie is preparing another massacre against the proletarian struggle [1988]
/ English / Français / Español / Deutsch /
Source: Internationalist Communist Group (ICG), Communism n°5, October 1988, pp.52-60
The world bourgeoisie and all its mixed factions – from the PLO to Reagan, via the States of Israel, Syria, Egypt, etc. – whatever position they hold and whatever solution they propose for the conflict, all want to make a strictly “Palestinian” problem out of the riots in the Gaza Strip, the West-Bank and East Jerusalem. Their speeches on “the right, or otherwise, of the Palestinian people to self-determination” drown the sound of their tanks, beatings and bombings.
But in Gaza, the West-Bank, in the Lebanon and elsewhere, when the so-called “Palestinian refugees” (who not only come from Palestine, but also from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan or even Pakistan) begin to shout cries of revolt and to rise against the appalling living conditions imposed on them, it is the struggle of a class, of a class whose proletarian condition has flared up there more than elsewhere, but which can be seen in all the concentration camps of the capitalist world, be they death camps, prisons, law courts, cattle pens so nicely referred to as “homes for immigrant workers”, shanty-towns, or even our hard-labour camps, commonly known as factories, companies,… for those who have not yet been banished to the “camps of surpluses”.

From 20 to 26 May 2024, groups and individuals from different parts of the world will meet in Prague to coordinate anti-war activities as part of the Week of Action. The series of events will also include an anti-war congress, which will take place from Friday 24 to Sunday 26 May 2024. Campaigns, direct actions, projects, publications and analyses related to the issue of war will be presented at the congress. Among other things, this internationalist event will serve as an open assembly that will try to combine theoretical background with practical activities.
We consider it necessary, in the process of resistance to war, to develop an anti-capitalist practice which seeks to preserve political autonomy. In concrete terms, this means that we want to organize outside the political parties, outside the structures of the states, and against all states. We are particularly interested in the ways how we can oppose all the harsh conditions to which we have been exposed and subjected during interstate wars and capitalist peace. We are interested in ways to sabotage wars, how to deprive our enemies of resources, how to undermine the ability of states and their armies to continue wars.
Which way to go and what is to be done? How to join forces and get organized? We will look for answers based on class, not national differentiation; answers that take into account the sheer contradiction between rank-and-file soldiers and officers, between wage laborers and bosses, between the proletariat and the bourgeoisie. We will look for ways to make soldiers in uniform of any state army identify themselves with the social struggle of their brothers and sisters on the other side of the front line, and not in the murderous orders of their officers. We will also look for ways to oppose false friends, all those who seek to transform the class struggle into a national or religious struggle for a new state, a new capitalist space, better adapted to their needs.
We support the internationalist community affirming the struggle against the bourgeoisie of all warring sides, against the armies of all states, against the capitalists of each country. Current manifestations of resistance, however contradictory and fragmented they are, undoubtedly contain the seeds of a social polarization that can turn wars between states into class confrontation.
What is meant is the confrontation between the defenders of the nation, the states and capitalism on the one hand, and the social class on the other, which is beginning to realize that defending the nation to which it is bound in chains only serves the interests of those who exploit it.
Direct action against wars now takes various forms, more or less targeted, more or less organized. Let’s strive for a qualitative shift whereby individual acts of resistance break out of their isolation through interconnection and coordination. The common enemy in every epoch is, first of all, capitalism, and therefore every state that structures it, the army that defends it, the bourgeoisie that embodies it. The only way out of the nightmare of capitalist wars and capitalist peace is a collective awakening: we must see and sabotage the whole machinery of war, overthrow its representatives and reclaim our power as creators of the world.

Gazze’den Tel-Aviv’e ve Tüm Dünyaya… Savaş Yok Sınıf Savaşı Var!

Kapitalist savaşla karşı karşıya kalan devrimcilerin pozisyonu her zaman aynıdır: toplumsal devrimi savaşa karşı koymak, “kendi” burjuvazilerine ve “kendi” ulusal devletlerine karşı mücadele etmek.

7 Ekim 2023 – “İsrail/Filistin” topraklarında karşıt kapitalist gruplar arasında on yıllardır süren kanlı çatışmanın bir başka günü. Burjuva efendilerimiz bir kez daha proleter kardeşlerimizi birbirlerini öldürmeye zorluyor ve bizden – nerede yaşadığımıza bağlı olarak – bir ya da diğer tarafı desteklememizi bekliyor.

Rispondendo a un’interrogazione parlamentare, il ministro della guerra Guido Crosetto ha confermato che lo Stabilimento militare per il munizionamento terrestre (Smmt) di Baiano di Spoleto potrebbe presto produrre i nuovi missili e munizioni da inviare in Ucraina per sostenere la guerra in corso. L’Agenzia industrie Difesa (Aid) ha infatti candidato tre suoi siti produttivi – quello spoletino, quello di Capua e quello di Fontana Liri – per il bando dell’Unione europea Asap, che prevede lo stanziamento di 500 milioni di euro per produrre nuovi armamenti da inviare a Kiev.

Позиция революционеров, столкнувшихся с капиталистической войной, всегда одна и та же: противопоставить войне социальную революцию, бороться против «своей» буржуазии и «своего» национального государства.
GCI-ICG, Неизменность позиции революционеров в отношении войны: смысл революционного пораженчества – “Communism”, №12
7 октября 2023 года: еще один день кровавого, длящегося десятилетиями конфликта между противоборствующими капиталистическими группировками на территории «Израиля/Палестины». Наши буржуазные хозяева вновь толкают наших пролетарских братьев и сестер на убийство друг друга и ждут, что мы – в зависимости от места, где мы живем – сплотимся в поддержку той или иной стороны.

There is not, there has never been and there will never be capitalism without war. If we want to prevent wars, we must abolish capitalism. There is no other way to achieve a world without war.
But to bring down capitalism, it is essential that the part of the society that makes up its exploited being, and which manifests itself as the living contradiction to the economic tyranny, should constitute itself as a single revolutionary class against the bourgeoisie, as a single party structuring its strength beyond any religion, ideology or nationality.
Internationalism is the proletarian response to the efforts of capitalist rivals to unite the exploited around the national economy and make them kill each other by lining them up behind their respective flags: nations, regions, national liberation fronts, socialist countries, anti-imperialist fronts, oppressed peoples… The key to overcome the contradictions in which capitalism tries to isolate the proletariat and to divide it by States, lies in the absolute rejection of any recruitment in a national camp. The exploited all over the world have no interests in common with those who exploit them, and nothing in the inter-imperialist contradictions can halt the worsening, at whatever level, of their situation as exploited, nothing in the inter-bourgeois balance of forces can relativize their interest in fighting the capitalist class relentlessly.
