RT was not surprised that Karl Rove, Bush's brain, will resign soon from his influential position in the Whitehouse. He completed most of his work and has posted substantial victories. The little Eichmanns succeeded in firing Ward Churchill, and a recent NYTimes article stands as another bellwether of the political shift to the right of U$ academia. First, before commenting on the specific

The next work in RT's chronological trek through the writings of Comrade Mao Zedong is his Report on an Investigation of the Peasant Movement in Hunan. The investigation has some interesting information on how the organized peasant associations transformed a feudal China into a revolutionary one. RT considers the peasants' overthrowing of the political power of the county magistrates and his

The Bitter Sufferings of the Peasants of Kiangsu and Chekiang, and Their Movement of Resistance by Mao Zedong provides some important lessons for contemporary communists. The article deals with a student, Chou Shui-p'ing who organized farmers to demand lower rent from landlords. Before the farmers could totally organize, the landlords acted swiftly and executed Chou Shui-p'ing, leaving the

RT has edited some if its archives to remove sexist language and some sentiments that readers could misunderstand as not upholding the primary contradiction between oppressor and oppressed.

In Analysis of the Classes in Chinese Society, Mao Zedong indicates the presence of five classes in China: the landlord and comprador class, the middle-bourgeois, the petty-bourgeois, the semi-proletariat, and the proletariat. Mao lists them from least revolutionary to most revolutionary and RT will follow the same format. The landlord and comprador class constitue a reactionary force with no

Tobacco played an important role in the early days of the Amerikkkan colonies, and Mao Zedong noted the presence of Amerikkkan and Briti$h merchants making cigarettes in China in 1923. He calls the Chinese government "the counting house of our foreign masters" and points out that when the foreign merchants ask the Chinese ministers to cut taxes, the ministers reply, "How low?"With lower taxes,

At first glance, Mao Zedong's The Role of Merchants in National Revolution might appear to represent an opportunism on Mao's part of turning his back on the proletariat and peasantry to advance the cause of the petit-bourgeois. Mao points out that the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce and merchants actually had revolutionary capability. To communists in the imperialist nations, the notion seems

Pat Robertson and other clerical fascists have seen the invasion and occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan as a basis for evangelizing the middle east. As long as the imperialist forces insist on imposing an alien religion on the people of Afghanistan, their clerical forces will return in

On July 17, Bush promulgated an addition to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to block property of people who commit acts of violence that threaten the stability of Iraq and undermine attempts at political reform or promote economic reconstruction in Iraq. Some people believe the executive order will have a chilling effect on open dissent, which it will. Bush and Cheney didn't

Senator Russ Feingold has sounded the call to censure President Bush for making misleading statements about Iraq, mishandling the war, and warrantless wiretaps. RT considers a censure of Bush as essentially meaningless, but we can't agree with Senator Reid that the Senate doesn't need a censure to show that Bush has been the worst President in history. The article points out that Feingold's

The Ward Churchill verdict could hold serious implications for the progress of scientific communism. If the University of Colorado board of regents succeeds in railroading him, the necessity of survival will drive the best communist scholarship underground. Reactionary University fossils will threaten the personal reputation and livelihood of people who openly undertake communist scholarship.

With public support waning for the occupation of Iraq, the right wingers are insisting that the "surge" needs time to work. Give imperialism a chance. At least they're no longer claiming that the insurgency is in its last throes. Is the political leadership talking about ending the imperialist quagmire? Republican Senators John Warner and Dick Lugar are calling on the President to come up

Unless Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf starts hiring mercenary guards from Blackwater or the U$ military, Pakistani Muslims soon will assassinate him thanks to the Lal Masjid massacre. Most people understand that Musharraf stormed the mosque at the bidding of his U$ masters. The Muslim press has roundly denounced him and his government as munafiqun (hypocrites), which is a loaded term from

The precision of language in Marxist theory is a complicated problem, as activists dedicated to orthodoxy tend to consider analysis sloppy if it includes non-Marxist terminology as "middle class" or "upper class." Rather, we're supposed to refer to the classes as bourgeois, proletariat, and if necessary, petty bourgeois and lumpenproletariat. Activists dedicated to praxis consider such

Brig. Gen. Kevin Bergner trotted out the cards with mugshots and captions that supposedly provide definitive proof of Iran's involvement in killing US soldiers in Iran. The case rings hollow like Colin Powell's vial of anthrax at the UN. The imperialists produce their so-called smoking guns that only turn out to be distortions designed to provide a justification to appropriate the wealth of

Two British intelligence agents were arrested after driving a Jeep Cherokee full of gasoline and nails into Glasgow airport on 7-1-2007. The agents failed in their mission as their superiors told them to die in the operation, lest the media discover that they were government agents. The British government instructed the men to yell Islamic slogans such as "Allahu Akhbar" (God is Greatest) in

Why Red Terror?Traditionally, red is the color of communism. I don't see any point in mincing words about what the communist revolution will entail and what the bourgeois consider communists. In upholding the line of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, RT supports the proletariat reappropriating the property the capitalists and imperialists have stolen from them. The dictatorship of the proletariat will
