Proletarians of all countries, unite!
The spark that ignited the prairie on May 17, comrades, never went out1
“How different is the logic of the imperialists from that of the people! Make trouble, fail, make trouble again, fail again . . . till their doom; that is the logic of the imperialists and all reactionaries the world over in dealing with the people’s cause, and they will never go against this logic. This is a Marxist law. When we say ‘imperialism is ferocious’, we mean that its nature will never change, that the imperialists will never lay down their butcher knives, that they will never become Buddhas, till their doom.
Fight, fail, fight again, fail again, fight again . . . till their victory; that is the logic of the people, and they too will never go against this logic. This is another Marxist law. The Russian people’s revolution followed this law, and so has the Chinese people’s revolution.”
— Chairman Mao, “Cast Away Illusions, Prepare for Struggle”
The spark that ignited the prairie on May 17.
They wanted and still want to extinguish it, and not only that, to scatter ashes in the wind, they, who were comrades on the road and peacemakers.
Visceral hatred from yesterday’s outdated figures, once again bankrupt.
The flame of the intense fire, comrades, has never been extinguished.
The incandescent sun, its example, still shines, an unfading light that also imposes itself with a great roar in the ears of the people. It is a constant hammering of voices and raised fists.
Foolish are those who refuse to listen. Can’t they see that drums of war are sounding everywhere? It’s no longer just here, but even worse for those who hear it and stray onto another path.
The spark that ignited on May 17 beats rapidly in the countryside, in the potatoes, in the fruits, in the tunnels, in the rivers. It beats even stronger in every corner of the countryside, echoing like a sound box in the city. It is a palpitation in its children, even more so because of the new and higher ascent.
And to the class that demands its vanguard, its guide, and in the role of its best children who walk with its light, raising the banners of Maoism and Gonzalo Thought, contributions of universal validity before the eyes of the world (…),
Comrades, the masses demand, insist, want, need, and call for people’s war until communism, and we cannot be deaf and blind to it.
For those who have departed and those who are yet to come.
It is a crime to extinguish the light and the fire.
It is our duty to fan it.
May the sparks become bonfires and the fire purify us.
Let us raise the sickle with defiant discretion and with restless hammers let us wave our undefeated red flag once again.
Long live the 39th Anniversary of the People’s War!
Long live Chairman Gonzalo, leader of the party and the revolution!
Glory to Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, Gonzalo Thought!
Honor and glory to the proletariat and the Peruvian people!
Comrades, the Unified Maoist International Conference (UMIC) convened by the Maoist Parties and Organizations is already a resounding success, thanks to the preparation, the process being followed, and the undeniable progress it is making in reunifying communists. It is the highest tribute to the centenary of the founding of the Third Communist International by Lenin and to the role played by Comrade Stalin. Stalin. It demands that we follow his example and raise it higher in the spread of communism throughout the world and the forging of communist parties across the globe. Now, with Marxist-Leninist-Maoist communist parties, militarized.
Long live the First Centenary of the Third Communist International!
We are guided by our undefeated banners of Marx, Lenin, and Chairman Mao Tse Tung. With our fists raised high and our chests swollen with pride, we say honor and glory to Marxism-Leninism-Maoism, and we recognize the firm determination of Maoist parties and organizations to apply the contributions of universal character of Gonzalo Thought.
We say:
We are communists, forged with the purest steel in the image and
likeness of Chairman Gonzalo.
Happy 39th anniversary, and let us celebrate the 30th anniversary of our
Everlasting Milestone of Victory, the First Congress, the Marxist
Congress, the Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, Gonzalo Thought Congress.
