The imperialist powers are trying to impose a condition of "no
war-no peace"on the world. While they launch their aggressions and
war as they have in Bosnia, Lebanon, Iraq and elsewhere, at the
same time they are indulging in imperialist peace. This "no war-no
peace" condition is favorable to the imperialists to consolidate
their stranglehold over the world and to redivide it into their own
spheres of influence. U.S. imperialism is the most active in
launching wars as it has against Iraq, imposing an imperialist
peace there while carrying out extensive war preparations.
The people of the world cannot accept this condition of "no
war-no peace" as it goes against their interests. The imperialist
powers, especially U.S. imperialism, launches wars when it suits
its own interests and tries peace initiatives likewise when it
serves its interests in doing so. However, the interests of the
peoples of the world can be served only through lasting peace. All
forces which threaten peace or all those who are imposing the
situation of "no war-no peace" should be overthrown.
The condition of "no war-no peace" is based on the premise
that the interests of the imperialists have precedence over all
others and that "might makes right." This means that the
imperialists are fighting for their interests by imposing a
condition of "no war-no peace" at this time, as they uphold their
own interests whenever they engage in inter-imperialist war or wars
of aggression. With all the propaganda about the "global economy,"
that "national interests and security stretch well beyond a
country's borders", it is quite clear that all imperialist powers
are preparing to establish their own hegemony.
The working class and the broad masses of the people must
condemn all acts of aggression including the present situation of
"no war-no peace." The people must prepare the condition for a
lasting peace through the overthrow of all imperialism and world
reaction.
