Home ›10. Is armed struggle a valid way to fight capitalism? Are you terrorists?
No. We’re completely and rigidly against the terrorist methods of struggle. This practice, based on the action of few persons, has no sense, as it is totally extraneous to the proletarian masses and their living conditions, made of privations and daily fatigues. The gun shootings of terrorism - often moved or manipulated in an occult way by the very same bourgeoise state apparatus - fatally lead to a retaliation of the bourgeoisie against the world of labour; i.e. they provide, on a silver plate, the opportunity for repressive actions against all those who line up on the terrain of true anticapitalist struggle; they accelerate, precisely, the reforms directed to worsen proletarian life and work, with the pretext of the terrorist emergence. All of this happens while workers are totally passive and disoriented.
Proletarian masses are the real protagonists of history. They have to take the action - the defence of their immediate and historical interests - back in their hands. When the class struggle is missing, no self-styled elite can artificially substitute them. Because of all these reasons, the true communist movement is lined up unconditionally against terrorism.

The CWO also offers subscriptions to Revolutionary Perspectives (3 issues) and Aurora (at least 4 issues):

Take out a supporter’s sub by adding £10 (€12) to each sum. This will give you priority mailings of Aurora and other free pamphlets as they are produced.
