Re: PERU: The Tale of Killing...

[Godenas@xxxxxxx]

Louis, your statement that the PCP considers anyone "who is not in their
ranks [or] cheering them on" as an "enemy" is ridiculous in the extreme.  You
then go on to to state [piously, in my view] that you are opposed to the
killing of "political opponents," "period."  The PCP  is not in the business
of killing non-combatants "period."  Those who organize against the
revolution, those who act as snitches or who "finger" revolutionaries or
"suspected" revolutionaries to be killed by the army or the death squads, are
a different matter.  How can it be otherwise?  Are the Peruvian
revolutionaries to be murdered in their beds, as in El Salvador?
Louis, you are interested in going across town to hear a Peruvian emigre who
made a living as a full time employee of the Ford Foundation and the Catholic
Church, who was an important figure in the reformist PUM (before he was
expelled), who has made a living slandering those who have given their lives
to overthrow the stranglehold of bureaucratic capitalism and imperialism.
 Yet, you dismiss those who would defend the Peruvian revolution with
regurgitated phrases and hackneyed shibboleths.  What gives?
