Statement of the Central Committee of the AUCPB in connection with the crisis over Iran
Statement of the Central Committee of the AUCPB in connection with the crisis over Iran
The explosive situation in the Middle East at the end of last year has escalated to the limit: The U.S. and other Western countries accuse Iran of secret nuclear weapon development. IAEA experts, controlled by the United States, declared to the world that Tehran's nuclear program allegedly was initially military-oriented and continues to evolve in the same way.
Despite the fact that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in his speech on September 22, 2011 at the 66th session of UN General Assembly rostrum, dismissed the charges, once again, officially announcing the peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program, and blamed for all the latest international military conflicts on the U.S. and its allies, the imperialist countries of the West and Zionist Israel continue to escalate the situation in the Persian Gulf.
On January 5th 2012, the international media reported the decision the EU to join the U.S. sanctions to impose an embargo on oil imports from Iran into the EU (the final decision will be made January 30). Such actions of the imperialist powers and the rulers of the world Zionist circles are aimed at strangling the Iranian economy and the desire to bring to their knees the proud Iranian people.
In response, Iran has already declared that it would cut off oil shipments along the strategically important Strait of Hormuz (through which the 40% of marine oil exports, including into Europe and the U.S.) in the case of sanctions against the Iranian oil sector. In the adjacent area to the Strait of Hormuz, Iran has carried out a 10-day naval, during which new missiles of various classes were tested.
The USA, in turn, introduced into the training area in the Gulf its own carrier fleet, led by the aircraft carrier "John Stennis," which at the end of exercise left the region. Earlier in the Indian Ocean entered a carrier battle group led by the nuclear aircraft carrier "Carl Vinson" and sent to the Arabian Sea. Great Britain sent to the Persian Gulf its most modern and powerful destroyer "Dering." Israel and the U.S. in the coming weeks, plan to hold an unprecedented scale joint military exercise on missile defence, code named "Austere Challenge 12” (currently postponed on 16 Jan –Fb). There's no doubt that over Iran hang really dark clouds. This is evidenced by the last interview with U.S. Secretary of Defence Leon Panetta and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, U.S. Armed Forces Gen. Martin Dempsey of an imminent attack on Iranian nuclear facilities in case of disobedience by Iran to the dictates of Western powers.
The situation is exacerbated by the day and ready to get out of control at any moment, threatening to escalate into a war with unpredictable consequences, as even state officials say of those countries preparing for aggression: U.S., Israel and Britain.
The reasons for the next injection of war hysteria in the Middle East are rooted primarily in the exacerbation of contradictions in the capitalist world. The global economic crisis that began in 2008 with the U.S. mortgage crisis is not abating. Moreover, all signs of recession in the economies of the Western imperialist powers threaten to escalate the crisis in an even more devastating one than the crisis of 1929 - 1933's. Characteristically, this crisis increasingly encompasses the highly state-monopolist U.S. economy and the EU countries. Decreased production and increased unemployment in many capitalist countries are intertwined with such serious upheaval of the world capitalist economy as foreign exchange, energy and raw material crises.
The global crisis threatens the whole system of imperialism, in which the developed Western countries profit by plundering other nations. Particularly afraid of losing their dominant position in the world are the Zionist and American imperialists. As you know, the United States of America are parasitic in way of life, profiting by an unlimited issue of paper dollars, with which they acquire the necessary goods and raw materials. The global "currency" dollar is not backed up by anything other than the might of the U.S. military.
Military spending and war are the only way for the imperialist powers to rescue their economies from total bankruptcy and collapse. In addition, the Zionist circles, holding the main wealth of the U.S., expect a war to strengthen its dominant position in the world, drowning the rising competition, while burning empty dollars in the furnace of military spending, to prevent the collapse of the U.S. economy which is fraught with social upheavals.
After crushing Iran's desire for independent development by military force, the United States will have the opportunity to establish full control over the oil-bearing region of the Middle East. Suffice to say that the puppet governments of oil producing countries in the Persian Gulf have long followed in the wake of U.S. policy, as the previously recalcitrant Iraq defeated, and its oil fields are now working under the supervision of American monopolists.
In this chain of actions of the U.S. imperialists in the possession of control over energy resources of the world and to dominate the world, there follow the previously provoked by Western intelligence agencies "orange revolutions" in North Africa and the Middle East, which the bourgeois political scientists call the "Arab Spring". Among these acts of interference by the Western imperialists in the internal affairs of Arab countries, the most bloody act of naked aggression was against Libya, where they mercilessly killed thousands of civilians and the legitimate leaders of the Libyan government, headed by Muammar Gaddafi. There are continued attempts by the West, despite the thousands of victims, to shift Syria's legitimate government of Bashar Assad. Truly we are witnessing yet more fangs of imperialism, when oil becomes more expensive than human blood. With this, the implementation by the West of "orange revolutions" in the Arab East, at the same time should be regarded as a kind of "cleansing" of the rear before a planned war with Iran.
The Zionist circles in the U.S. and Israel are well aware that if Iran does acquire nuclear weapons, then their dictate in the region will be possibly limited, and so the imperialist aggressors have learned well their lessons against socialist DPRK. So first and foremost, we can expect military strikes on Iran's underground nuclear facilities.
Subjecting Iran to its domination is the intermediate objective in the chain of the global challenges of the U.S. imperialists for world domination. Their main goal remains the same - the elimination of Russia as an independent state and the suppression of its main competitor at this point in the economic sphere - China.
There is no doubt in the anti-Russian orientation of the U.S. missile defence system in Europe by virtually all independent experts. Setting up a similar missile defence system in Iran, the U.S. will have closed off its chain of anti-missile bases against the heart of Russia - its European part. In addition, the deployment of American troops to the southern underbelly of Russia from the Caucasus is fraught with the establishment of complete U.S. domination over the Caucasus republics, including over a member of the CSTO (Collective Security Treaty Organisation), Armenia and the final destabilization in the North Caucasus republics and subsequent rejection of Russia by the entire southern region.
In case of successful operations in Iran, the U.S. achieves another goal - they can place China's economy feeding off Iranian oil (China buys about 20% of all crude oil that Iran exports) on starvation rations, then with that, frustrate plans by the Chinese government of a gross domestic product output of China in 2020 reaching first place in the world.
However, the danger of all these plans by the American hawks lies in that a regional conflict in the Middle East could escalate into a third world war with nuclear weapons and the fatal consequences for all mankind. Moreover, the degree of danger of a military conflict is increased by the outbreak in the U.S. of a presidential race for the presidency, in which the current administration of Democrats, led by the "peacemaker” Obama, in order not to fall behind on scoring in the "protection of national interests of America" from Republican hawks, traditionally making warlike speeches can go to the most insane move.
The All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks is strongly opposed to the aggression being prepared by U.S. forces and their allies against the Islamic Republic of Iran, as well as Western interference in the internal affairs of the Syrian Arab Republic.
We stand in solidarity with the peoples of Iran and Syria, which uphold the independence of their countries to the threat of aggressive aspirations of the imperialist and Zionist circles in the West.
We urge all peace-loving forces in the world to create an anti-imperialist front in their own countries and showing solidarity, to speak out against the outbreak of another war, fraught with the possibility to grow into an apocalyptic third world war with nuclear weapons!

Military Sexual Assaults Increase in U.S.
Military Sexual Assaults Increase in U.S.
Pyongyang, January 26 (KCNA) -- The increasing number of military sexual assault cases is one of the big problems in the United States.
A total of 3 191 sexual assaults were reported in the military last year,

Formation of Anti-U.S. Joint Front is General Trend
Formation of Anti-U.S. Joint Front is General Trend
Pyongyang, January 25 (KCNA) -- The movement to form an anti-U.S. joint front is active in the international arena this year in an effort to cope with the U.S. moves to dominate the world. This trend is drawing the world attention.
A typical example is Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's five-day visits to four Latin American countries from Jan. 8
The U.S. employed every possible means and ways to bar his visits by putting pressure on those countries that agreed to host the Iranian president.
Governments of Iran and Latin American countries resolutely rejected the pressure and warnings of the U.S. and put their plans into practice, demonstrating their will to fight it out against the U.S.
Welcoming the Iranian president's visits to their countries, the Latin American countries clarified their stand to conduct dynamic joint struggle against the U.S. by rejecting the U.S. brigandish demand and boosting solidarity and cooperation with Iran.
When the U.S. threatened to slap sanctions against Iran over its oil export while taking issue with its nuclear development for peaceful purposes, the Iranian government strongly reacted to it, threatening that it would close the Strait of Hormuz.
Upset by this, the U.S. is crying out for military option in case of the closure.
The world is of the view that the recent visits provided a good opportunity for Iran and the Latin American countries to reaffirm their common stand against the U.S. and pool their efforts to foil the U.S. moves to isolate and control them.
The formation of the anti-U.S. joint front is the general world trend at present. -0-

GIs in south Korea Branded as Drug Peddler
Pyongyang, January 24 (KCNA) -- It has been recently disclosed that a GI smuggled a large amount of drug into south Korea.
This person serving at a U.S. army unit in Songnam city, Kyonggi Province, secretly introduced a large amount of drug by means of international mail.
Detected in his lodging was material believed to be identical to drug.
The fact goes to more clearly prove that GIs are the root cause of drug-related crimes recently rampant in south Korea.
For instance, more than 10 drug-related cases were reported from among GIs present in south Korea from January to August 1999.
Later, an officer of the U.S. imperialist 7th Air Force was unearthed while smuggling a large amount of cocaine and family members of GIs were hell-bent on drug smuggling.
The drug smuggled by GIs has given a great damage to south Koreans.
The 1960s witnessed tragedies in which a large number of south Korean women were missing or died of illness after being addicted to drugs.
Even GIs used the drug to satisfy their desires for murder. In March 1970 a drug-addicted GI cut off the heads of Kim Hwa Nam and his wife in Dongduchon, Kyonggi Province and another GI mangled a woman to death by a scissor in Taegu in December 1987. These were small part of the hideous crimes committed by GIs.
The U.S. imperialist aggression forces are root cause of all misfortunes and pains of south Koreans and a den of crimes. -0-

Lee Myung Bak Termed Chieftain of Massacre of Ryongsan Evacuees Three Yrs Ago
Pyongyang, January 22 (KCNA) -- The south Korean Preparatory Committee for Memorial Service for the Ryongsan Tragedy condemned the puppet group of traitors for the massacre of Ryongsan evacuees. The Committee consists of more than 100 civic and public organizations.
They held a rally in the plaza of the Seoul Station on Jan. 19.
The speakers said though three years have passed since the tragedy, probe into the killing has not been made and the evacuees who fought for their rights to existence are still kept behind bars.
The present "government" forcibly evacuated residents without any measure, pursuant to its reckless devolopment policy, speakers charged, deploring it will bring the second and third Ryongsan Tragedy.
They strongly demanded the immediate release of the unjustly detained evacuees and the enactment of the "law on banning forcible evacuation" to prevent the Ryongsan tragedy from repeating itself.
Paek Ki Wan, chief of the Institute for Unification Studies, made a memorial address.
It is Lee Myung Bak who masterminded the massacre of Ryongsan evacuees, Paek said.
He called on people from different social strata to turn the memorial movement into a campaign for putting Lee Myung Bak behind bars this year. -
