Messages of Solidarity Committees with the Iranian Workers' Movement-Abroad
To the
striking workers in South African mines“Rustenburg Joint Strike Coordinating Committee
Dear comrades!
We heard your appeal
for international support and solidarity. During the last few months we are
witnessing your strikes and struggles for justice. We heard the heart rending
sound of thundering machine guns opened fire on you and we were devastated by
the news.
To spread your voice
and learn more about your struggles in Iran, we released a statement and
published it on YouTube in Farsi language.
You are struggling
with Devotion and courage against the imperial capital giants, multinational
corporations and imperialist order. You know that poverty, lack of proper housing,
lack of education etc., in other words having a decent life is not natural and
not imposed by a supernatural force, but the result of a profit dominated and
exploitative system, which not only rules your lives, but also lives of billions
of people worldwide.
As appears from your letter,
you are also suffering the lack of mass organization of the working class;
having a traitorous trade union that backs up the capitalists instead of the workers.
Dear comrades!
We declare our solidarity
with you and supporting you as our duty and responsibility.
We will do our best to
bring your voice to your comrades in Iran in all possible ways.
In the coming days we
will donate a small amount into your account.
We regard your
struggles and victory as ours and shake your hands warmly
Long live the united
struggles against the capitalism
