Re: [Marxism] What do Koreans think

>> Refusing food aid even when citizens are starving to death,  suggests
that the régime is oblivious to the well-being of its own citizens.  It
is my belief that socialists should not provide an iota of support  to
this régime. Or in other words, in a conflict between imperialism  and
this "rotten régime", socialists must say: "We have no dog in  this
fight." <<

Well, its always easy to advocate supporting ones own imperial butchers, by 
 pretending to be neutral. 
 
Communist view the political equation above fundamentally different from  
social-democrats (socialists). The issue of support of any political regime 
is  temporal but the opposition to imperial butchery and plunder is 
unconditional.  The "dog" communist have in the struggle between the American 
imperial state and  the state of North Korea is ourselves and our own working 
class 
interest.  American imperialism created the modern "Korean problem" and the 
withdrawal of  American imperialism from Korea is the fundamental solution 
for the resolution  of a conflict between "imperialism and this "rotten 
regime."
 
Support or not support to the "rotten regime" does not enter the political  
equation at all. If the regime was progressive, revolutionary and 
democratic in  the most practical and utopian sense, none of this would enter 
the 
equation that  is resolution of the "Korean Problem," from the standpoint of 
Americans living  within the multinational state of the United States of 
America.
 
You are free to withdraw your support and advocate that other NOT  oppose 
American imperial interest in Korea, because you do not like the "Great  
Leader" or the fact that the regime does not conform to your individual liking 
. 
 . . therefore "I have no dog in the fight" and say lets not mention that  
American imperialism is a problem and gets our first attention.
