This year too the West Bengal State Committee of the All India Anti-imperialist Forum organized an impressive rally in Calcutta to observe the Hiroshima Day. The rally denounced the henious crime against the humanity that the US imperialism committed in 1945; at the same time, it condemned unambiguously, the police atrocities on the anti-G8 Meet demonstrators at Genoa, more so the brutal killing of a retrenched worker, Carlo Giuliani, shot at and run over by the Italian police during the demonstration. And with deep concern it takes note of the imperialist conspiracy to paint the former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic as a war criminal and condemns this imperialist threat to other nations against any future refusal to comply with imperialist dictates. The rally also condemned the war mongering US imperialism, which creates fresh threats of nuclear warfare with its NMD Programmes and ignores the world opinion by rejecting Kyoto Treaty and by its decision to produce weapons for biological warfare. The rally started from Subodh Mullick Square and marched onto the American Centre on Chowringhee Road. There the rally burnt an effigy of the US President Bush, the worst and fiercest representative of the present-day utterly decadent world capitalist-imperialist order. A number of eminent intellectuals of the state and fore-ranking participants of anti-imperialist struggle, including Prof. Sunandya Sanyal and Prof. Tarun Sanyal, the President and Vice-President respectively, of the State Committee of the Forum, addressed the rally and placed their deliberations on different aspects of imperialist aggressions and intrigues, paid tributes to the martyrs of anti-imperialist struggles and drew attention to the need to step up that struggle in different parts of the world, including ours. ________________________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
