EMERGENCY CALL OF THE WORKER MOVEMENT AND THE REVOLUTIONARY MILITIAS OF LIBYA

March 2012
From Plaza Tahrir in Egypt to the grassroot of the revolutionary masses of Libya...
A war cry of the world working class sounds:

Smash the countrerevolutionary troops of the jackal Al Assad, agent of the imperialism!

Let’s break the fence of the martyr Syrian masses who are being killed!
US, NATO, Al Assad and Hizbollah watch out the zionist borders!

From rebellious Libya we declare with unbroken strength:

To all the fighting worker organizations of the world in support of the Syrian people and against Bashar

Over the last months we have seen the massacre carried out by Bashar on the exploited and oppressed Syrian people, a mass murder that has gotten worse in the last few days. We, the “…freedom fighters…” from Libya that defeated Qadafy, a dictator so bloody, abject, and oppressor of his own people as Al - Assad -declare ourselves one fist with the subjugated Syrian people in their fight against the dog Bashar al-Assad. Our guns are at the disposal of our brothers and sisters which are being killed mercilessly (including the children and the elders) in Damascus, Homs, Hama, and other cities.

We are trying to organize brigades from here to there, but the paths are blocked. Even some of us have managed to find a way into Syria, but only one by one. In fact, at least 4 of our fighters turned into martyrs in that hostile terrain.

The current government in Libya has declared that it would send neither troops nor weapons to Syria, in spite of the feeling of hundreds of thousands revolutionary Libyans who desire to fight side by side with the Syrian subjugated people. Instead, it has decided to give money to the Syrian National Council, the so-called opposition to Bashar which has never fought him; moreover, it has prevented the massive arming of the population in self-defense and to defeat the army.  That fact has shown the NTC’s true colors as an enemy of the Syrian uprising. We cannot let it decide what to do with our money, because we need it here and the Syrian masses need our help, and the NTC is not willing to give us money or combat against al-kalb Bashar al-Assad. This struggle we must take in our hands. The heads of the CNT are more bent on disarming and trying to corrupt the militias of the exploited in Libya which defeated Khadafy, than in confronting all the tyrants who oppress, make starve and massacre their own people.
While saying they are against this massacre the NTC, like the governments in other countries in the world, prefer to turn a blind eye on this question and do nothing, opening the road for Bashar’s tanks to bomb the people’s homes. The Arab League, the United Nations and the Governments of the great powers of the planet, are letting Bashar do the "dirty work" for them. The dominant powers and the lackeys of Zionism know perfectly well that if Al - Assad falls as a product of an insurrection of the exploited masses, the borders of the Zionist occupation regime over the Palestinian nation will be jeopardized and in crisis. And then effectively, the revolutions that we have begun would rise a new echelon in the conquest of freedom, the national independence and especially the bread; if so, we would escape the brutal misery to which the Governments of the enemies of workers and peoples of the region have carried us, from Ben Ali to Khadafy, to Mubarak to Al - Assad, among others. All of them fear that the Palestinian flag flutter over Jerusalem which again will be its capital, having crushed the Zionist beast.

However we know that the oppressed people of those countries feel the same way we do and do not approve of the actions of their governments. We have to expose that there are workers exploited by their millionaire bosses and their governments in USA and Europe that are today lossing their houses, health, education, children and so on. We call them to do everything they can from their places to break any barrier and jump every border in order to organize international brigades for fighting in Syria together with us. We call them to do all kinds of actions in support of the Syrian downtrodden masses, such as demonstrations to besiege and set on fire the Syrian embassies around the world, as we did here in Libya with the Italian embassy in 2006. We know that at Cairo's indomitable Tahrir square, thousands of its occupants are going permanently to the Embassy of Syria to the cry of "USA, NATO, al - Assad and Hezbollah, custodians of the Zionist boundaries" and "Assad, Assad, you will end up as Muammar (Qadafy)". They are our brothers and sisters that have already burned the Zionist Embassy in our neighboring country. They also mark the way to liberate Homs and Damascus from Al - Assad's massacres.

We know that millions of class brothers and sisters and their families subjected to all kinds of humiliation and exploitation in the world begin to stand up and proclaim that "we must fight as in Libya". We say yes, but to do so, the oppressed of Syria should succeed, crushing Al – Assad’s bloody offensive … And it is in our hands to make this reality.

We appeal especially to the organizations of those countries that today are supporting militarily the massacre of the Syrian people; we call them to stand up against their bosses’ regimes. 
We are aware that the only way to stop the massacre in Syria is to follow the footsteps of what we did against Qadafy, that is to say, to win this war against Bashar. We want badly to take this path together and as soon as possible, because every day that befalls hundreds of new martyrs are slaughtered barbarously.

We must break the siege tended on our brothers of Syria. A determined, coordinated and unified action of all the oppressed of the world is the path.

Weapons and international brigades to break the encirclement of the exploited and oppressed in Syria, and for defeating murderous al - Assad!
