In the history of the international communist movement there exist NO literature advocating the violent extermination of a class. There is NOTHING in Marx, Engel's, Lenin, Stalin or Mao where as individuals or representatives of a party and class, these leader advocate or call for the extermination of a class. NOTHING!
Class struggle in its military aspect is never a question of extermination of a class. Class struggle in its far reaching political-economic aspects call into question the liquidation - dissolution, of the old dying class and classes, BUT NOT AS A MILITARY MATTER in its practical and historical features. A class is liquidated on the basis of its pending dissolution of its economic underpinning or revolution in the means of production and transition in the property form. The proletariat liquidates itself as a class. Who in their right mind would call this historic act of liquidation - extermination of a class? Advocacy for extermination of a class is a call for genocide pure and simple. Which of course is why no one in their right mind will endorse such a formulation. Advocacy of extermination of people - a concrete historical class, is a call for genocide and mass murder. One cannot exterminate a class. One can only kill individuals constituting a class and their place is immediately taken by new people until changes in the productive forces are sufficient to render the class obsolete in the first place. Old classes are overthrown and liquidated from history as society leaps to a new mode of production. WL. In a message dated 12/20/2010 4:11:05 P.M.

NO one here is advocating Terrorism or the like, as I see it. Also, No need to summons the attention of the oppressive police State by pretending to be so sanctimoniously vigilant on this matter. There is class war all over this world and we are quite conscious of how murderous the Imperialists are. for free from _http://www.papercut.biz/emailStripper.htm_ (http://www.papercut.biz/emailStripper.htm) _______________________________________________ Marxist-Leninist-List mailing list Marxist-Leninist-List@lists.econ.utah.edu To change your options or unsubscribe go to: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/listinfo/marxist-leninist-list
