  • They don’t view themselves as a vanguard party, nor do they feel there is one in the USA yet. Their approach is focused on being the “headlights for the masses” by focusing on using the Mass Line within working class and national liberation movements or mass orgs, taking their needs and using Marxist-Leninism to address the immediate needs and tie it to the larger strategic goals of uniting the working class and national liberation movements towards revolution.

    They focus on identifying the “advanced” within the masses who are the masses chosen leaders within unions, labor movements, and national liberation movements to help implement the above to reach the “intermediate” (vast majority of these movements) while protecting against the backwards, reactionary, or opportunists who move these movements away from liberators and revolutionary potential.

    Recruit those among the advanced into Cadre and empower them with the tools of Marxism-Leninism.

    Making communists.

    I dig it.








  • Great article! Thanks for sharing.

    Skare said that despite its designation by the U.S. and other Western nations as a terrorist organization, PIJ does not conduct attacks outside of historic Palestine. “It also distances itself from attacks against the West and also against Israelis outside of Israeli or Palestinian territory because it would weaken the Palestinian struggle and the legitimacy of the Palestinian struggle,” Skare said. “They make it quite clear that their struggle is not against Israelis because of their Jewish faith, but because of the occupation.”

    While PIJ is often narrowly portrayed as a violent Islamic terror organization, it views itself both as an armed vanguard advocating a unified liberation movement and a political and social movement rooted in Islamist and Palestinian history and culture. “We saw two categories of Palestinian: the nationalists, who talked about liberating Palestine but who forgot about Islam, and the traditionalists, who talked about Islam and an Islamic state but who forgot about Palestine,” observed PIJ’s founder Dr. Fathi Shaqaqi in an interview in 1995, nine months before he was assassinated by the Mossad in front of a Malta hotel. “We had to solve this problematic issue, to make the crossing-point between nationalist and Islamist.”

    Think they’re talking about the PFLP?
