But we cannot separate this terrorism from that of the terrorism US has done in last six decades in the name of cold war with the help of her military and intelligence machine that is CIA. US has topple down many peoples governments in KOREA, VIETNAM, INDONESIA, PANAMA, CHILE, AFGHANISTAN, ANGOLA, IRAQ, PALESTINE. It has supported terrorism and violation of human rights in many countries of the world and has supported fundamentalism to counter people's struggle in many countries in the world and as a result of this peoples like Usama are born. So we are of the opinion that moral grounds of the hue and cry raised by US imperialism is very week. Undoubtedly the Taliban regime in is Afghanistan inhuman, undemocratic and reactionary and is created jointly by establishment of Pakistan and US. Even then we do not let US to attack on AFGHANISTAN to kill innocent people. Basically US imperialism is intended t! o do what it has done in Iraq. In our opinion US has an eye on oil and mineral resources of central Asia and is intended to stay here to make use of this presence. Due to this presence US is interested to counter China. In our opinion present standing of Pakistani establishment clearly reflects its failure of Afghan policy during which they act as a partner of US imperialism and our present problems of fundamentalism, heroin and terrorism are only due to this Afghan policy. We are going to launch an anti-imperialist movement to combat this situation. Communist Workers and Peasant Party Pakistan (CMKP) ************************************************** Indian Anti-US War Protesters face severe repression Statement by the All India Peoples Resistance Forum (AIPRF) ************************************************** The Delhi Police raided the residence (also all India office) of G N Saibaba, the All India General secretary of All India Peoples Resistance Forum (AIPRF) at 11am today i.e. on 8th October at Pitampura, Delhi for taking a campaign against US War against Afghanistan. They confiscated leaflets of the campaign saying those who are against US war are against Indian national integrity because India Government is supporting US war against Afghanistan. The Police arrested on the morning of 8th six activists of AIPRF, who were distributing leaflets in residential colonies in the Jamuna Area of Delhi. The journalists, other activists and lawyers who went to enquire at Bhajanpura police station were not allowed to meet our activists in the station. The police produced the six activists in their custody before a court the in the evening. The court remanded them for 14 days of judicial custody. They were sent to Tihar Jail. Now the BJP-led NDA government is extending their crackdown on all those who are protesting against US war on the people of Afghanistan. In this context, AIPRF calls upon all democratic organizations in the country to come together to protest by forming A Committee Against US War. However, despite this swift crackdown on the organization in Delhi, AIPRF resolves to organize countrywide protests against US imperialist war on the people of Afghanistan and on the whole oppressed world in the name of fighting terrorism. AIPRF has been taking up several anti-war actions in various states. AIPRF also continues to support the religious and national minorities in all parts of India at this crucial juncture of time when they are persecuted by the Hindutva forces in complicity with the ruling NDA Government in the name containing terrorism and supporting US imperialist war for oil and more military bases in the Middle East.
