Transcript | SOVIET UNION 37 means the concentrated, ruthless domination of men by men, the exploitation of men by men; the Soviet Union, building up socialism, means the destruction, the shattering of old relations and forces which strengthen the power of ownership, which make possible and maintain the exploitation and enslavement of man by man, the Soviet Union, giving social security, well being, freedom and culture to the workers. The parallel existence of two such utterly opposite powers is, in the long run, an impossibility. Sooner or later these two powers must come into conflict. What can we see now ? While all forces in the Soviet Union are directed towards building the Soviet State into a socialist, a Communist society, all forces in the capitalist countries are concentrated on the further suppression and exploitation of peoples, on new wars, and particularly on the annihilation of the Soviet Republic. That can be easily understood. Firstly, world capitalism cannot for long endure such a large area being removed from its sphere of exploitation and slavery, an area rich in natural resources and natural forces, inhabited by millions of workers. It must desire the defeat, the overthrow of the Soviet Union. Further, the mere existence of the Soviet Union, its peaceful, socialist work of construction, is a continual appeal to the exploited and oppressed of all other countries. Arise, learn, act, destroy capitalism, put an end to this patient endurance of the class rule of the bourgeoisie ! The Soviet Union is threatened with war. We women have every cause to exert all our strength against the encirclement of the Soviet Union, against the war which threatens it. It is our duty to prevent by all the means at our disposal an imperialist attack on the land of the proletarian revolution. |
