Meeting of Communist and workers Parties in

 East Mediterranean

 

Syrian Communist Party speech delivered by Dr. Ammar Bagdache, member of political bureau of Syrian Communist Party, in Athens 5th January 2008

 

Dear comrades,

          At the beginning, I'd like to express my deep thanks to the comrades of Communist Party of Greece, for their initiative to invite workers and Communist Parties in East Mediterranean and their kind hosting to the meeting.

         Today, our meeting to exchange opinions with the representatives of fraternal parties and coordinating their stands to challenge common enemy - the world imperialism, has a special importance in terms of plots and imperialistic expanding plans which are applied in our region. And our region is one of the most significant parts, for the intense challenge between world imperialism and world liberating movement takes place in it.

        The situation in the region is distinguished by the continuation of American invasion and direct occupation to Iraq. It should be said that Iraqi patriotic resistance which has directed and directs painful strikes to American forces and to its local agents, did not change only the situation in the region, but also the situation in whole world. By virtue of this heroic resistance, the image of the American Imperialism as an absolute power and not confronted and must be kept pace with it, this image fell down.   

        So the Iraqi patriotic resistance strongly proved that the people who aspire for its freedom, and willing to present all what it has for the liberty of its country, can struggle against the most forceful imperialist power, and cause it tremendous losses.

        We, Syrian communists, supported and expressed our solidarity with Iraqi national resistance since its appearance, regardless of ideological contrasts with some of its factions. However, according to our viewpoint, what basically combines us is the opposition and resistance against the main enemy; that is the American Imperialism.

        We wish if the socialist stream is stronger in this resistance, and this did not really happen because of the opportunist and revisionist cancer, which affected the supposed deliverer of this stream. Right now, we are with all real patriotic powers in the region, backing up the struggle of Iraqi patriotic resistance to defeat the American occupation, and establishing the independent democratic unified free Iraq, where the whole citizens have equal rights.

         Besides, there is a further victory to liberation powers in our region, particularly the defeat of Zionist Israeli aggression on Lebanon in summer time 2006. As usual, this aggression had a thoroughly American support; above all, it was mainly incited by American administration, to kill civilians in the inhabited places in such a brutal way and with inconsideration to thousands of victims. In site of that, the Lebanese national resistance and its striking group’ Hezbollah’ courageously confronted to the barbarian attack, and they defeated the troops of Zionist aggression.

        We, Syrian communists, raise a high tribute to heroisms of Lebanese national resistance. We also champion the struggle of Lebanese patriotic powers irrespective of their ideology or origin; seeking to defeat the huge plot which world imperialistic centers fabricate it depending on their local allies and agents, for the sake of transforming Lebanon into imperialistic protectorate and as a centre of conspiracy on the national liberation movement in the region. Lebanese national powers strife to preserve on the real independence for their country and national sovereignty, they contribute a lot in the struggle of world and Arab patriotic liberation movement.

          As Zionist and imperialistic plots persist to destroy the Palestinian issue. It should be said that reactionaries Arab regimes and Palestinian non- patriotic sections work hard to make this huge conspiracy successful; and Annapolis Conference was one of the recent scenes, which the American administration called for the meeting in coordination with Zionist Israel rulers, assistance and support of world reactionary powers including the flattering Arab regimes.  Undoubtedly, one of temporary objects of Annapolis Conference was to brighten up the image of Bush administration in front of American public opinion, as a temporary compensation of repeated defeats or, rather, the immense failure of American Imperialism policy in Iraq. More over, it is also to increase the popularity of Olmert government inside Israel, especially after Israeli troops in Lebanon were defeated.

          However, the objects of Annapolis Conference were further of temporary objects. Its objects were intending to draw the features and key lines of destroying the Palestinian issue. So, Annapolis Conference is a step to legalize’ the Jewish features’ to Israel state and the absolute negation to the Palestinian refugees right of return which was stipulated by the UN resolutions. And even furthermore, to endorse the principle of ’ Israel's Judaism ’ is a clear racial principle establishes a legally base displacing the Arab citizens from Israel, that is to say; applying the of ’ Transfer ’ scheme which the most extremist parts openly proclaim it in the Zionist camp, and practically prepared by what is called ’ Zionist moderate powers ’ .      

         As working for keeping the aggressive expanding characteristic of Zionist Israel and developing it, there is no in the Zionist camping. But disagreement is concentrated on the best manner for applying this colonial racial scheme.

         In addition to that, Annapolis Conference aimed to confirm the category that Palestinian state takes the shape of jelly like and flabby weak entity; it is similar to ' Bantustan system ' which the racial governance in South Africa attempted to apply in late of 20th century. Furthermore, Annapolis leaders were wholly concerned by orchestrating to fuel the Palestinian civil war, for carrying out Zionist and imperialistic objects by Palestinian hands.

        And one of the long-termed objects of Annapolis is to quicken the normalization process between Zionist Israel and Arab rulers, as achieving the Zionist imperialistic plan for setting up the ' New Big Middle East plan ' , this means to set up an imperialistic centre in the region, led by Israel and under the American imperialistic custody.

And we realize that the first priority of Arab patriotic liberation movement with all its factions is to foil the imperialistic Zionist plan, which aims to spoil completely the national sovereignty of Arab countries, and fully enslaving to its peoples and national wealth.

 

Dear comrades,

        Syria constitutes a major difficulty in challenging the total application of imperialistic and Zionist hegemony plan in the region. It rejects the submission to Imperialistic dictations. It also states about its solidarity with struggle of Arab national powers, which are fighting Zionism and imperialism.

        Syria is subjected to different blackmails and plots because of its national stand, and threatened by the military direct invasion. Not to mention, Zionist Israel frequently makes limited aggressive operations, represented by air striking to a certain Syrian locations with various pretexts. Imperialistic powers want from Syria to give up its backing to patriotic powers, factions and the resistance in the neighboring Arab countries; it is like an introduction to wage a comprehensively attack on Syria, in order to topple the current regime and replacing it with traitorous and reactionaries regime. And we, Syrian Communists, find that the support of Syrian national steadfastness is an international, patriotic, class and sacred duty.

        Syrian communists daily work hard to strengthen all the factors of Syrian national steadfastness, through out motivating the will of resistance of Syrian people masses, deep-rooted by national traditions, and promoting the ties of allying between Syrian patriotic powers, especially between Syrian Communist Party and Arab Socialist Baath Party.

        Pressures on Syria are not only restricted by external threats and plots, but also reactionary powers and representatives of Comprador Bourgeoisie which works to exhaust Syria economically in order to strike it politically. Our party steadily challenges the directions of economic liberalism; it realizes the seriousness on the Syrian national steadfastness and on the living standard of people. And it must be said that this battle is difficult because its national feature is not clear to the people, and reactionary powers are trying to restrict it within the economic field.

       However, we Syrian communists conceive that when we struggle for defending the national production and its progress, we defend the backbone of this production that is public sector, which constitutes the largest national funds in the country, and defending all other forms of national production starting from funds up to small goods projects. We also protect the interests of working laborers, farmers and persons with little earnings up to national Bourgeoisie. We do not only find it as social – economic struggle, but it is also considered a highest level of national struggle.

The struggle of Syrian communists depends on the following three pillars of the policy party:

1 – To cooperate with all patriotic and progressive powers in the country.

2 – To defend the independent view point of the party in the principled and serious political cases.

3 – Constant fixed struggle for the interests of the popular mass.

        We see in our struggle that we take part in the world struggle of liberation powers against Imperialism. And it exactly harmonize with the great slogan ' For Anti - Imperialism World Front'

Dear comrades,

         All indications demonstrate that there is a strong periodical crisis striking all the Imperialism centers. Such crisis usually leads to several outcomes:

In one hand, they pointedly show Capitalism's contradictions and destabilization of the current balance of powers, on the other hand the ruling monopolist Capitalism in imperialistic countries, so it stirs up its external aggressive expanding feature to over come its crisis, and it resorts to black reactionaries governments to attack the movement of the toiling masses, or to democratic socialist governments for appeasing social tension. At any rates, we, communists, should be in the front of class and patriotic struggle within these critical circumstances.

And there is an essential point in our international struggle; we have to draw our attention to importance of facing the danger of world Zionism.  

       Thus, Zionism is a racial reactionary movement having a fascistic feature which represents the interests of financial Jewish capital that is in the absolute characters. But its extraordinary danger lies in how much it is able to adapt with objective circumstances, changing its shape and practices as well. So it has a remarkable influence on the main Bourgeoisie movement in the world, beginning with Neo-cons and ending with Social- Democrats. And it finds that one of its top missions is to devastate the Communist Parties through out creating and encouraging   opportunist and revisionists orientations in them. For this reason, the relentless struggle against Zionism is one of the priorities of general struggle for communists all over the world.

 

Dear comrades,

Communism Movement has enormous fighting tasks. And dangerous fierce enemy attacks us, and humanity never ever recognizes like this enemy even the days of Fascism. Consequently, humanity depends a lot on the communists' struggle, for saving it from the imperialistic enemy which holds all barbarianism and destruction to life on our planet.

Any way, we will inevitably win together.

 

Thanks for your listening

 

Unity, unity and more unity..!
