The official story surrounding the Las Vegas mass shooting is crumbling.
After Las Vegas Sheriff Joseph Lombardo dramatically altered the
shooting timeline Monday, indicating a security guard was shot by
alleged gunman Stephen Paddock before his assault on country music concertgoers, the entire narrative has been thrown into question.
Watch these two videos for a recap of various inconsistencies that don’t add up. Below: Excerpts from the different press conferences
held by LVPD and FBI show that their official story has more holes that
Swiss cheese.
Below: This is a compilation of two videos featuring
Rene Downs, who was staying at the Bellagio hotel on Oct 1st and heard
automatic fire, broken glass and stampeding crowds at the Petrossian
Lounge. Her room was combed by Hotel staff who claimed no shooting was
heard at that location. Rene Downs time stamped the sounds of automatic
gunfire to just after 11pm, a full 45 minutes after shooting ended at
the Mandalay Bay.
The owners of the Mandalay Bay are questioning Las Vegas police’s
version of events, after law enforcement accounts of how a deadly mass
shooting played out changed dramatically Monday.
Mandalay Bay Owner: ‘What’s being expressed (by police) may not be accurate’
MGM spokesperson: ‘We cannot be certain about the most recent timeline that has been communicated publicly…’

Here is yet more evidence that the State Department is a swamp that has yet to be drained, and may never be drained. Munira Khalif may be a wonderful U.S. Youth Observer to the United
Nations, even if her statement here is full of the expected platitudes
(“empower,” “diversity,” “globalized world,” etc.). But she was clearly
chosen for her symbolic value. She is a living, walking symbol of the
State Department’s anxiousness to show that the United States is not
“Islamophobic.” She is a demonstration of the State Department’s
determination to “empower” Muslims and show our “diversity,” so as to
refute the jihadist narrative that the U.S. is at war with Islam, which
will keep Muslims in the U.S. from becoming “alienated” and joining the
jihad. The whole idea is based on the assumption that Muslims turn to jihad
because of the injustices suffered by Muslims at the hand of the U.S.,
and so if the U.S. is nice to Muslims, the jihad will end. This is based
on completely ignoring the teachings about jihad in the Qur’an and
Sunnah, and so is doomed to failure, but that doesn’t keep the deep
state State Department wonks from trying and trying, again and again.
“Meet Munira Khalif, the 2017-2018 U.S. Youth Observer to the United Nations,” DipNote, U.S. State Department blog, October 4, 2017 (thanks to Creeping Sharia):
I’m so honored and excited to have been selected as this
year’s U.S. Youth Observer to the United Nations. To start off the year,
I wanted to officially introduce myself.
My name is Munira Khalif, and I was born and raised in Minnesota. I
study Economics and minor in Government at Harvard University. As a
Somali-American, I grew up aware of the reality that not all children
have the opportunity to attend school—especially girls. By no fault of
their own, millions of children are deprived of the opportunity to
advance their own lives and that of their families and communities.
There is an African proverb that exclaims, “If you educate a boy, you
educate an individual. If you educate a girl, you educate a nation”.
Education has the power to transform — not only individuals — but our
world. With this in mind, I co-founded Lighting the Way. The youth-run organization focuses on making education more accessible for young people in East Africa — especially girls. Lighting the Way
works to provide scholarships, build libraries, and sponsor teachers.
In addition, I served as a Teen Advisor for the United Nations
Foundation campaign Girl Up. Girl Up mobilizes American girls to empower
and support the world’s hardest-to-reach adolescent girls in developing
countries to be safe, healthy, educated, counted, and positioned to be
the next generation of leaders. Through Girl Up, I have had the
opportunity to speak on the importance of girl’s education at the United
Nations Head Quarters on the first inaugural Malala Day and to lobby
alongside other youth advocates to pass the Girls Count Act.
I applied to be the next U.S. Youth Observer because I believe in the
power of young people to bring forth immeasurable change. Often times,
international institutions like the United Nations can seem daunting. In
turn, we believe that our voices don’t matter. But the reality is that
the United Nations needs a diversity of voices to be able to solve the
complex issues of the world. More importantly, when issues that affect
young people are being discussed it is intrinsic that we have a seat at
the table. As the U.S. Youth Observer, I will work to ensure that young
Americans have a seat at the table. I will leverage my platform to
amplify the voices, ideas, and concerns of young Americans at global
policy discussions.
As the year unfolds, I look forward to connecting with young people
from across the country to hear about the global issues that are at the
forefront of their minds. I hope that over my tenure I will be able to
instill a sense of global citizenship. We live in a globalized world and
our futures and lives are more interconnected than ever before. Being a
global citizen means caring about not only what is happening within our
own borders — but also outside of them. Because the problems of others
can quickly become our own. We must speak out where others have been
silent. We must take action where others have stood still. We must
shine our own light in the hopes of illuminating the way for others.

A Hungarian MP slammed billionaire George Soros and
supporters for attempting to dilute the spirit of Europe with “the
forced settlement of tens of millions of migrants.” He claimed there is a
Christian duty to fight what he called “Satan’s Soros” plan. The lawmaker in question, Andras Aradszki, who represents the
Christian Democratic People’s Party (KDNP), claimed that “Soros and his
comrades want to destroy the independence and values of nation states,”
as cited by the Budapest Beacon. According to Aradszki this is happening “for the purpose of watering
down the Christian spirit of Europe with the forced settlement of tens
of millions of migrants.”
“But the fight against Satan is a Christian duty. Yes, I speak of an
attack by Satan, who is also the angel of denial, because they are
denying what they are preparing to do — even when it is completely
obvious. They frantically try to prove that there is no [refugee] quota,
there is no compulsory settlement, and the Soros Plan does not exist,”
Aradszki noted.
“The national consultation is an outstanding opportunity for us
to make our opinions known about Satan’s Soros Plan,” he concluded. On
Sunday, the Chief Security Advisor to the Prime Minister, Gyorgy
Bakondi, warned of the implications of the “Soros Plan.”
“This may have serious consequences for the sovereignty of member
states, for the nations themselves, and also with regard to the
security of European citizens,” he pointed out.
Soros stated in 2015 that the “EU has to accept at least a
million asylum-seekers annually for the foreseeable future. And, to do
that, it must share the burden fairly.”
“Adequate financing is critical,” the billionaire wrote. “The EU
should provide £10,000 (€15,000) per asylum-seeker for each of the first
two years to help cover housing, health care, and education costs – and
to make accepting refugees more appealing to member states.”
Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who has repeatedly blamed
Hungarian-born Soros of fueling the refugee crisis in Europe, said that
“Brussels has come under George Soros’s influence.”
“We have revealed the existence of the Soros plan, and the
drafter himself admitted that it exists. We have placed it in the focus
of politics,” the prime minister said in an interview to public radio on
Friday.
In July, Orban accused Soros of using the EU in order to create a
“new, mixed, Muslimized Europe,” according to AP. The prime minister
said that Soros is now more powerful in Brussels than in Washington or
Tel Aviv and he argued that European institutions should fight to limit
his influence.
He noted that reforming Europe can only begin by stopping illegal
migration into the EU and that Hungary’s border defenses will help with
that effort.
Late last month Orban called on Hungarians to participate in the
government’s public survey on the “Soros plan,” noting that it will help
the country shield itself from migration. The survey dubbed “national
consultation” will ask Hungarians for their view on whether or not
Hungary should become an immigrant country.
“We want a Hungarian Hungary and a European Europe,” Orban said on the first day of parliament’s autumn session.
Last week Goran Buldioski, director of Soros’ Open Society
Initiatives in Europe, told AP that Soros and his foundations support
“more coherent and humane policies for helping to resettle migrants
fleeing oppression and violence in their homelands” but that “there is
no such thing as a global conspiracy against Hungary.”
Hungary is engaged in a bitter row with the EU over the refugee
relocation quotas, together with Poland and Slovakia. The issue dates
back to the EU decision made in 2015 to rehouse some 160,000 refugees
from Greece and Italy over a period of two years, only around 27,700 of
whom have been settled so far.
Hungary claimed in September that its fences on the borders with
Croatia and Serbia had helped to cut the inflow of migrants by 99.7
percent since 2015. The small inland nation now has one quarter of the
length of its borders protected by a fence. The Hungarian border fence
has been repeatedly criticized by other European countries, as well as
by EU politicians, but Budapest has resisted pressure to remove it.
The Hungarian government has established itself as a steadfast opponent
of George Soros and the globalist agenda at the political and social
levels,
but now they have taken the battle spiritual.

The “antifascist” group otherwise known as Antifa is planning a

Antifa Planning Communist Revolution for America on November 4

republished below in full unedited for informational, educational, and research purposes:
No matter how many communist
hammers & sickles or images of Marx, Mao, and other communists the
violent Antifa radicals display, the Fake News media continue to present
them as idealistic "anti-fascists."
“When we fight, we fight for communism, and all our constructive and
destructive activity is geared toward building our party, which will
wage a protracted people’s war, establishing socialism and continuing
the revolution under the rule of the working class.”
So declares
Red Guards Austin, the masked “Antifa” thugs of Austin, Texas, who
march about displaying the communist hammer & sickle symbol, and who
also openly display banners emblazoned with images of Karl Marx and mass-murderers Mao Zedong and Vladimir Lenin. See, for example, the photos to the right and immediately below, from their website (see here and here; the article continues below the photo.)
Unequivocally Communist
The organizers, theorists, strategists, and writers of Antifa (short
for “Anti-fascist”) are unequivocally communists, as is evident not only
from their obvious communist tactics and their own admissions and
public proclamations, but also from their ties to (and support from)
formal communist parties, as well as their adoption of communist
slogans, symbols, chants, and causes. Many Antifa leaders and groups
unabashedly proclaim themselves Maoists, Marxist-Leninists, Stalinists,
or Trotskyites.
The above-mentioned black-clad hoodlums of Red Guards Austin, for
example, offer unalloyed praise for one of history’s most notorious
dictators and mass murderers in “A Tribute to Comrade Joseph Stalin.” As
Maoist communists, they also have great affection, of course, for Mao
Zedong, the only dictator ever to top Stalin in the bloodletting and
liquidation business. According to the meticulous research of the late
Professor R. J. Rummel, Mao’s regime murdered over 76 million Chinese.
Mao is, nevertheless, idolized by Red Guards Austin. In listing the
“weapons” of their cause, these Antifa hoodlums say: “The first and most
important among these [weapons] is the Maoist party — Red Guards
Austin’s reason for existence is to build this party with other Maoists
in the US.” The Red Guards Austin are not the only
Antifa group proudly declaring their communist lineage and their
adherence to Marxist-Leninist ideology. Indeed, virtually all of the
Antifa organizations around the country that have been rioting and
burning our cities and physically assaulting American citizens openly
declare their communist sympathies. This is no secret, yet the
establishment news media continue to refer to the Antifa criminals and
terrorists by their preferred labels: anti-fascist, anti-Nazi,
anti-racist. CNN Investigative Report Unmasks ... Zilch
For example, on August 22, 2017, CNN produced an “investigative news”
report entitled “Unmasking the leftist Antifa movement” that did zero
unmasking. Instead, the CNN report glamorized Antifa, providing a public
relations bonanza for mayhem makers. “We are meeting members of the
Rose City Antifa, short for Anti-Fascist,” CNN reporter Sara Ganim
explained as she went to a secret meeting in Portland, Oregon, with the
masked Antifa members. “This group’s main goal is to disrupt neo-Nazis
and white supremacists, but also to take on government and capitalism,”
Ganim noted. CNN’s reference to “taking on” capitalism was as close as
the “unmasking” got to even hinting at Antifa’s core communist
motivation. A young masked Antifa woman tells Ganim’s CNN audience that
“Antifa is any group that is willing to stand up to fascists by any
means necessary.”
That sounds pretty idealistic — maybe even admirable — does it not?
After all, everyone knows fascists and Nazis are bad. Shouldn’t we stand
up to them? But here’s the rub: For Antifa activists,“fascist” is a
totally elastic label that can be stretched to smear anyone with whom
they disagree, including brave people who truly fought fascism — people
such as my parents and my uncles who put their lives on the line in
World War II to fight Hitler and the Nazis. My father was a paratrooper
in the 82nd Airborne (D-Day, Battle of the Bulge); my mother was in the
Army Nurse Corps (England, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany). My
parents were fiercely anti-Nazi, anti-fascist, anti-racist, and
anti-KKK — and, just as fiercely, anti-communist. It was the
anti-communist part that made them, and millions of other patriotic
veterans like them, “enemies of the people” in the eyes of the Communist
Party, Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), the Weather
Underground, and the Black Panther Party — the ancestors of today’s
Antifa. So, during the 1960s and ’70s, my parents and other
anti-communist Americans who had actually fought the Nazis had to endure
being called Nazis by Marxist-Leninist baby-boomer brats and hardcore
communist terrorists who were bent on establishing a totalitarian
dictatorship that would have been every bit as tyrannical and genocidal
as Hitler’s. Antifa's Professor Mike Isaacson
So it continues today. According to Professor Mike Isaacson (shown at
right), an Antifa leader who teaches at the City University of New
York’s John Jay College of Law, “Anti-communism is code for fascism.”
There you have it: If you’re an anti-communist, if you’re averse to
living in a communist police state — 24/7 surveillance, repression,
torture, gulags, genocide, etc. — well, then, you’re obviously a
FASCIST. If you stand anywhere to the right of Mao Zedong or Fidel
Castro, you are a FASCIST, and, according to the Antifa jihadists, you
should be treated as such. Which means that not only have you forfeited
your right to speak, but also your right to exist. It’s “Off with your
head!” Literally. The Antifa website It’s Going Down wants to bring back
the French Revolution’s Reign of Terror, with a campaign to “Make the Guillotine Red Again.” Communist
megalomaniacs from Marx to Lenin, Mao Zedong, Ho Chi Minh, Fidel
Castro, and Pol Pot have invoked the French Revolution’s massive
bloodletting as their inspiration for remolding society. Prof. Isaacson, a founder of Smash
Racism DC, an Antifa group in our nation’s capital that participated in
the violent and disruptive “protests” during President Trump’s
inauguration, has gained infamy for his numerous public endorsements of
Antifa violence and his many tweets supporting murder of police
officers, some of whom are his law school students. Here are a few of
his offensive tweets that have caused outrage:
• July 18, 2017 — “Dead Cops are good, Laci.”
• August 16, 2017 — “What’s even the point of a cop that isn’t dead?”
• August 17, 2017 — “I hear their police stations catch on fire with an accelerant.”
• August 23, 2017 — “Some of y'all might think it sucks being an
anti-fascist teaching at John Jay College but I think it's a privilege
to teach future dead cops.”
• August 29, 2017 — “Off the pigs”
And he teaches law at a prestigious law school! A committed
Marxist-Leninist, Isaacson has even developed a Marxist, collectivist
method of grading his students because, he says, the “pursuit of
knowledge is a collective pursuit.”
“Few academic or professional endeavors are the result of individuals acting alone,” states
Isaacson’s grading curve policy for his class, “ECO 101: Introduction
to Economics and Global Capitalism.” “All graded assignments will
receive grades reflective of not only individual efforts, but also class
effort,” the class description continues.
In September, due to public outcry over Isaacson’s outrageous
anti-police statements and his support for Antifa violence, he was put
on administrative leave by John Jay College. However, that public outcry
didn’t arise because of any coverage of Isaacson in the “mainstream”
media; it came about thanks to outrage from police unions and coverage
of the Antifa prof’s antics by the independent conservative media. For
its part, the establishment Fake News media was content to present
Isaacson as a credible academic and quote his more “nuanced” — and
seemingly more moderate — statements, without hinting at his radical
Marxist roots.
The members of the press have no excuse for continuing to treat
communist Antifa revolutionists as brave “anti-fascists” and romantic
crusaders fighting against Nazis, racists, and social injustice.
Ignorance and incompetence only go so far in explaining the bias,
imbalance, and self-censorship in the media’s Antifa coverage. Willful
blindness to the facts and sympathy for the Antifa agenda (if not a
total endorsement of its violent communist methods) are clearly at play
here.
Below are some of the additional important facts that the American
people need to know about the Antifa “phenomenon,” but which the
pro-Antifa media have ignored, censored, downplayed, or half-hidden from
the general public’s view. Without Organized Communist Leadership Antifa Wouldn’t Exist
Communist parties and communist organizations such as the
Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP), Communist Party USA (CPUSA),
Workers World Party (WWP), By Any Means Necessary (BAMN), Freedom Road
Socialist Organization, and RefuseFascism.org provide the key
leadership, ideological indoctrination, organizing, and training for the
Antifa rioters. They also provide the chants, slogans, signs, and
banners for the Antifa confrontations. This is not new; it is a
continuation of the same communist organizational operations that have
run through the radical Occupy Wall Street, anti-war, anti-police,
immigration (DACA, Dreamers), environmental, and other protests over the
past several decades. This is not difficult to document, as we have
been showing for years from the radicals’ own admissions and publicly
available documents. (See here, here, here, and here.)
Marxist-Leninist-Maoist Professor Cornel West (shown at right) promotes Antifa as “saviors” — with help from the media.
Prof. West (Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Union Theological Seminary) has
been a hardcore Marxist activist for decades, openly working with the
Revolutionary Communist Party, the violent Maoists who idolize Mao
Zedong and his murderous Red Guards who terrorized China in the 1960s
and '70s.
West claims that Antifa thugs at the deadly Charlottesville,
Virginia, riot on August 12 “saved” him and his leftist clergy comrades
from being beaten by the fascists. We have counted dozens of stories in
the major media that have repeated this claim by West, many of which
have gone on to use this as an accolade for the masked felons and as
supposed evidence of Antifa’s “anti-fascist” bonafides. Not a single
story we have seen has even mentioned Cornel West’s communist
credentials, let alone questioned his motives in glorifying Antifa, or
(perish the thought!) asked whether or not the “saving” operation may
have been planned from the start for precisely the propaganda value that
it obviously has accrued. Antifa author/professor Mark Bray admits Antifa’s communist ideology and origins in his Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook,
but disingenuously entangles it with the less-understood anarchist
label and the more benign-sounding socialist label. (Professor Bray is
shown below on "Democracy Now!" with a cover image of his handbook shown
to the right.) He also attempts to ennoble and sanctify the Antifa
brand by clothing it in “anti-fascist” garb and dishonest rhetoric that
claims the group’s well-documented record of initiating violence is
somehow justified as “self defense.” Repeating a thesis of his book,
Bray told Sean Illing of the left-wing Vox website: “Anti-fascism
originated in response to early European fascism, and when
Mussolini's Blackshirts and Hitler's Brownshirts were ascendant in
Europe, various socialist, communist, and anarchist parties and groups
emerged to confront them.” (Article continues after photo.)
Antifa Flag: Designed by Communist Propagandists
The Antifa flag was designed by Communist Party propagandists to
serve communist purposes. Where did the Antifa logo (pictured below)
with the red and black flags (symbolizing communist/anarchist unity)
come from? The rallying symbol, ever-present on flags and banners at
Antifa events, can be traced back to Germany in the 1920s, reports the
radical left-wing Jacobin magazine, in “The Lost History of Antifa.” According to the Jacobin
account, it was “devised by Association of Revolutionary Visual Artists
members Max Keilson and Max Gebhard, [and] has been since become one of
the Left’s most well-known symbols.” What the Jacobin article
doesn’t tell readers is that the Association of Revolutionary Visual
Artists was an official propaganda arm of the German Communist Party,
which was a subservient branch of the Communist Party of the Soviet
Union. Max Keilson and Max Gebhard were high-level Communist Party
members. Keilson’s wife, Margarete Schnate-Keilson, was a top member of
the German Communist Party’s Central Committee, and a ruthless agent of
the Comintern (Communist International), the global network of Soviet
spies, assassins, propagandists, and agents of influence. Among her many
exploits, for which she received Soviet and East German honors, was
helping convicted atom bomb spy Klaus Fuchs escape.
She later married Fuchs. An undated black-and-white photo (presumably
from the 1930s) shows a German Antifa gathering in an auditorium with a huge Antifa flag/banner in the center of the stage flanked by communist flags with the hammer & sickle on either side. SDS Radicals From the ’60s
Prof. Mark Bray is certainly aware of this history, as well as the
essential red/black, communist/anarchist ties that run throughout
Antifa’s current composition, but he does not share this crucial
information with his television audiences. And his media interviewers
are complicit in his deception. Communist SDS leader and Weather
Underground terrorist Bill Ayers is one of the many radical Marxists now
continuing their 1960s activism through Antifa. At a Trump campaign
rally in Chicago on March 11, 2016, Ayers joined Antifa, Revolutionary
Communist Party, and Communist Part PUSA agitators who violently blocked
the rally, causing it to be cancelled. A video interview with Ayers at the event
also shows many of the other participating communist groups, as well as
featuring a young anti-Trump woman who sings/chants about “armed
revolution” and “it’s time to pick up a gun.”
More SDS Reds from the 1960s, such as C. Clark Kissinger and Dan Siegel, are helping the Antifa anarcho-communists:
• Clark Kissinger was national secretary of the SDS in the 1960s and
was such a devoted Maoist that he visited Communist China twice and was
an avid propagandist for Chairman Mao’s bloody Cultural Revolution and
Red Guards. His fervor has not dimmed over the past five decades: He
continues as an activist comrade in the Revolutionary Communist Party,
writes for the RCP’s Revolution newspaper/website, runs the Revolution
Books bookstore in New York City, and is a leading figure in the Occupy
Wall Street movement, as well as in the RCP fronts (and Antifa’s guiding
allies) Refuse&Resist, NotInOurName, and RefuseFascism.org.
• Dan Siegel was an SDS leader and, as student body president at the
University of California-Berkeley, led the 1969 “Bloody Thursday” riot,
also known as the “Battle for Peoples’ Park” at UC Berkeley. He has been
a radical “civil rights” lawyer ever since. He is an Occupy Wall
Street/Occupy Oakland activist and a longtime friend and adviser to
radical Oakland Mayor Jean Quan. Siegel’s Occupy comrades turned the
series of Occupy Oakland protests in 2011-2012 into bloody riots that
were some of the most violent, destructive, and costly operations of the
Occupy movement. The Occupy Oakland conflagrations served as a
principal training ground for Antifa recruits.
Few familiar with Siegel’s background were surprised when he showed up as the attorney for Professor Eric Clanton, the now-infamous Antifa thug arrested and charged with
the cowardly and vicious attacks (which could easily have been lethal)
in Berkeley last April. In those attacks, several Trump supporters at a
rally were (allegedly) clobbered by Clanton, who was wielding a heavy,
steel bike lock. One of the victims, who was struck on the head in a
sneak attack, was seriously injured. Clanton, the alleged attacker, then
blended back into the crowd, a typical tactic recommended in the Antifa
handbooks. However, the attacks were caught on video, and online
sleuths were able to unmask Clanton as the alleged attacker using computer forensic tools. Revolutionary Communist Party
The Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP) is a central player in Antifa
violence. Whether the Antifa mayhem erupts in Boston, Berkeley,
Charlottesville, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Baltimore, St.
Louis, Oakland, Seattle, or elsewhere, the RCP cadres are inevitably
exercising a leading role. This is evident on many levels, the most
obvious being the distinctive RCP signs carried by the Antifa activists.
Again, this is no secret; the RCP’s web address (www.revcom.us) is
printed on the signs. This RCP branding is clearly visible even in many
of the photos accompanying “mainstream” media reports on Antifa. But
the Fake News journalists virtually never point out this fact, nor do
they show the slightest inclination in probing the RCP’s organizing
role. Ditto for the RCP’s front group, Refuse Fascism. The
RCP/RefuseFascism cadres have been hard at work for decades recruiting
and building an American version of Mao’s Red Guards to implement a Maoist Cultural Revolution here in the United States.
They do not hide this. In fact they boast of it. One example out of
many: An interview with RCP leader Raymond Lotta in the RCP’s Revolution newspaper for May 9, 2016, titled “The Cultural Revolution: The Furthest Advance of Human Emancipation Yet.” “The
Cultural Revolution was the high point of the first stage of communist
revolution,” avers Comrade Lotta. “The Cultural Revolution was the most
far-reaching attempt in modern history, and in human history, to
revolutionize and restructure a society away from all exploitation and
oppression.... During the course of this, millions and millions of
people revolutionized their world outlook — that is, their basic values,
their approach to reality — and the whole ethos, or spirit, of society
was transformed.” Yes, and millions of people were, jailed, tortured,
and executed in the process, while the remaining hundreds of millions
(except for the privileged Communist Party elites) were enslaved. In
Antifa, the Maoist RCP has already formed the basis for their
long-envisioned Red Guard Amerika.
On September 11, 2017, the RCP’s Revolution published a Refuse Fascism article entitled “Shameful, Dangerous, Wrong Attacks on Antifa,” which takes to task those elements of the “progressive left” that have criticized Antifa’s violent methods.
Below are several of the many photos available on a Chinese-language website
showing the grisly reality of the Cultural Revolution. The photos below
of public condemnation of Chinese accused of “thought crimes” do not
begin to show the depths of torture and despair and the horrendous
murders of Mao’s Red Guards, whom Antifa glorify and seek to emulate.
(Article continues beneath photos.) Communist Workers Party
The Communist Workers World Party (WWP) provides key support to
Antifa efforts. Like the RCP, the WWP is a hardcore, unapologetic
communist organization with a long history of violent “protest” and
rioting. While the RCP true believers channel Mao, the WWP have chosen
Bolshevik death-dealer Leon Trotsky. In an editorial in the third issue
of the party’s publication, International Workers Day, the
group proclaimed, “We are THE Trotskyists. We stand 100% with all the
principled positions of Leon Trotsky, the most revolutionary communist
since Lenin.” On August 14, two days after the deadly Charlottesville mayhem, WWP cadres led a similar attack that toppled a statue of a Confederate soldier in Durham, North Carolina.
Clearly, they were hoping to provoke a riot similar to the lethal
Charlottesville melee. Among the WWP Trotskyists arrested were Takiyah
Thompson, Ngoc Loan Tran, Dante Emmanuel Strobino, Peter Gull Gilbert,
and Raul Jiminez. The WWP is holding a “#Do It Like Durham” Workers World Party Forum in
New York City on October 14, featuring Takiya Thompson and Ngoc Loan
Tran. Thompson, who climbed the Confederate statue in Durham, North
Carolina on August 16 and put the rope around its neck that was used to
pull it down, has become something of a celebrity among the “progressive” Left, since a video of her “heroic” exploit went viral. Black Lives Matter
Antifa
ally Black Lives Matter (BLM) has provided the most successful
communist exploitation of race hatred since the 1960s-’70s. The “white
privilege” mantra of the BLM activists was invented by Noel Ignatiev
(shown at right), a member of the Communist Party USA and a co-founder
of its most militant Stalinist/Maoist offshoot, the Provisional
Organizing Committee.
Ignatiev is also a co-founder of the New Abolitionist Society (the
object of which is to “abolish the white race”) and co-founder of Race Traitor: Journal of the New Abolitionism.
“The key to solving the social problems of our age is to abolish the white race,” says Ignatiev, who
is white. And, says this white Red who exploits and incites blacks to
attack whites, “The abolitionists do not limit themselves to socially
acceptable means of protest, but reject in advance no means of attaining
their goal.” In other words, “By any means necessary,” the slogan that
has become one of the refrains of the Antifa/BLM militants. According to Ignatiev, “If
you are a white male, you don’t deserve to live. You are a cancer,
you’re a disease, white males have never contributed anything positive
to the world! They only murder, exploit and oppress non-whites!”
This kind of racist, anti-white speech has become standard fare among
millions of students marinated in Ignatiev’s communist propaganda, and
can be regularly seen and heard at BLM/Antifa events. The three radical

the German Communist Party’s Central Committee, and a ruthless agent of
the Comintern (Communist International), the global network of Soviet
spies, assassins, propagandists, and agents of influence. Among her many
exploits, for which she received Soviet and East German honors, was
