Comrade Nqaba though you are an outsider or be a COPE member but on really terms he is spot on and comrades you should know and understand the nature and character of the ANCYL which currently lead by Julius Malema.Coming to the issue of Allliance of convenience comrade Nqaba I find contradictions on your input,chief you are saying you were the mover of the adoption of the re-launch of the Ycl but now you are saying you have told comrade Mbaks and Bhuti that this is an alliance of convenience so my leader may you please clarify what were you moving on the Rustenburg Conference.Secondly as you spot on as you are but my leader you as you have grown and developed in this movement and alliance so since when the tripartite alliance be an alliance of convenience?

I attended it and I was one of the strongest movers of the adoption of the re-launch of the Young communist League with Masondo, Makuku many other Comrades and I believe I was the Last speaking on the Subject representing on behalf of the Eastern Cape on Plenary. I believe the video archives can testify to this development that cannot be erased. Because this is history made. Iam raising this because history is being distorted by many and history of these organisations is not told correctly. I have been refusing to comment on the forum because Iam an outsider. However I feel obliged to clarify other things. The ANCYL has been my home for the Best part of my Political Development , the current debate of the Yl and YCL can be traced in the Organizational report of the 2004 Nasrec Conference by Comrade Fikile Mbalula . This discussion appears clearly on the Response of the Youth league on the Cosatu anti privatization strike then. If You read this discussion you will understand this dichotomy. Many of the New comers may wonder what is happening, and are asking question such as has there been a Relationship in these structure ever since the 1994 Democratic Breakthrough and what kind of a relationship, or have they been engage in a relation of convenience, this is what i said to Both Cde Manamela and Mbalula that their alliance in 2005 was an alliance of Convenience and was not based on any ideological and principled basis. The Polokwane Development missed a every important point, defining a tactical relationship and strategic relationship. Now the true Colours of what distinguish this important dialectical component and successful relationship are beginning to show. The phase of evaluating the point of convergence has arrived for the Polokwane forces and People are beginning to ask important questions, amongst those questions, like the important question of responsibilities on who suppose to do what in this relationship. The Debate is not a Julius or Manamela Issue this is a long difficult discussion since the beginning of this revolutionary alliance, People who do not understand the basis of this revolutionary alliance Continue to confuse the Roles, functions one structure against the other,mostly because of state and power. Your Current Problem is not the two individuals, your Problem is deeper that two: What are these confused roles since the victory the* revolutionary victory* in Polokwane. *What should been defining a revolutionary national liberation alliance is not personalities is the Political programe that serves as a moral campus of our struggle against the oppression of the majority of our People *Govan Mbeki*. I must firstly say some of us we were so fortunate to spend a bit of Time with the Giants of our liberation, Like Raymond Mhlaba and Govan Mbeki, Sicelo Kani, Oom Sayi Mthongana, Communist Veteran Makalima and Benson Fihla , Believe me or not we still learning from their revolutionary action until today. What was supposed to be the defining Task of these allies? The definition of this relationship has always be the strategic objectives of the NDR, the uplifment of the quality of life of all South Africans especially the majority of whom are poor and female. Key to this Programe is the working class that has a Task to win the ideological confidence of all the Social Sectors to win the hegemony of society, a Principle working class victory is not imposed or it will be short leaved. What is basically lacking to the Debates raised by Cde Malema and Manamela? Is to understand the Task of their organisations respectively. What was the Task of the Youth league I use to lead? The Youth League of the party of the liberation must Champion the Interest of the Youth in the ANC and society and contribute towards the organisational vibrancy and youthful Political Debates in the movement and seek to provide abridge between the present generation of youth and older generation. The Recent Malema articulate on of the protection of the legacy of the ANC are well placed and that must not be confused with changing allegiances, Malema and Floyd are doing exactly the Task assigned to them by the Constitution of the ANC. Whether People Like it or not Thabo Mbeki was the President of the ANC, You sleep but you wake up Thabo Mbeki is Still the Former President of the ANC you cant re-write history. Cde Terror Lekota is part of the legacy of the ANC, Robert Sobukwe and many more. The Youth League is correct to protect its legacy, because the is no communist league assigned to defend the Legacy of the ANC. Because they are not the league of the ANC, they are the league of the Party. The Youth League is the Sole future of the ANC, and it does not share that responsibility with the young communist league.This New left is a left of the moment , therefore Julius Malema is correct the Party must focus in building its structure and entrenching the Political Base of its members in preparation of a socialist Society . The ANC Youth derive its character form that of the ANC multi Class in character. Therefore the Youth league is neither a Communist organisation nor a capitalist organisation. It is not counter revolutionary to liberal, Social Democrat or Communist in the ANC. The Young Communist League The Party has a vanguard role in the NDR; the responsibility is to build the ideological confidence of the working class Youth in society not only in the ANC. The Resolution of the Party Rustenburg Conference was that we have to mobilise all socialist in South behind the Banner of the Communist Party, eg Azapo , PAC , SAPO, later I think COPE if the party is truly an international party. The Task the task therefore of the Party is not to an agent of the ANC but a vanguard of those who do not own means of production. The Challenge with the Young Communists League is that its intention is to replace the Youth of a Nationalist party by abdicating its responsibility for socialism. What might be enticing the Youth of the Communist the answer is simple: opportunities of Transition and Frantz Fanon elaborate on this on the Pitfalls of National Consciousness. The more the Communists entrench themselves the more they relax on their demands for the realization of a Socialist Society. The after Polokwane has presented growth in the Party membership, part of this is not conscious members but members of convenience because everybody wants to look left but walk right. In the Mbeki Era People were very scared in wearing the Party T*-shirts and today it is dominant. Most of these People have no idea of what learning communist is suppose to understand. They have not been inducted to the philosophy of the left but they are just communist for today. Future Possibilities Is the Battle between Manamela and Malema: No a big No, this battle is an ideological battle and it is a UN reconcilable battle because this represents the contradiction of Classes. Because with Polokwane the Left felt in control of the state and Communist are occupying strategic responsibilities and many are becoming comfortable with the state. The nationalist, traditionalist ANC Cadre are being sidelined to the Cold. Many nationalist inside and outside have hope in the articulations of Malema as a possible Messiah to save the ANC from an unprincipled lumpen proletariat that is disguised as the representatives of the of the progressive left. These forces belief in the re-alignment of the outside forces to defend the ANC from who the Communist. The Communist believe that the Progressive left must assert it self and eliminate any forces of dome, this has been shown by the recent defeat of the traditionalist ANC candidates whether in the state or in the organisation. Julius Malema must be listened at he might seeing another development of the re-alignment of forces in the near future.Iam 100% behind the views expressed by Malema he is on the correct path . I think people must not undermine Julius he is an organic Cadre of the Movement, he was schooled in the Cosas Politics, and we know he come after our generation in Cosas. We grommed him for battles ahead, He served as President of Cosas, Deputy Mthetheleli Mfana all rounder this fellows are a proud of different generations of Cosas ,Songezo Mjongile ,Tshilidzi Ratshitanga Maile,Phumezo lawana,Xolani* Pizza* Sifali , JJ Tyalisusi and Julius Malema.This is a generation we worked with in Difficult times of Operation Barcelona.
