NEUE EINHEIT: Rolf Martens' latest slanders


Rolf Martens now has grasped at a new straw, making a new attempt
to slander our organization after the failure of his previous
slanders.

First he alleged that we don't fight against the "Greens", what was
just nonsense. When we had published  a statement against him last
year in August, he had no reply to it, but in a "triumphal" manner
he sent us a paper where he explained the following to his then
friend Olaechea: one could see our alleged degeneration since the
end of the eighties by our non-support of the PCP.
Now it has become clear who really is able to criticize the PCP and
who is able to separate right from wrong. The PCP is not the
criterion of the international movement. The published criticism of
Jose Carlos Mariategui  by Klaus Sender is not only concerning the
PCP, but also concerning numerous forces which are undiscerningly
regarding these things without investigating them. It touches very
serious problems. The reaction of Olaechea has been self-speaking.
Olaechea's plea for a "communist autocracy and theocracy"
demonstrated what he really is belonging to.

Now, after Rolf Martens tried to abuse the PCP for denouncing the
KPD/ML (NEUE EINHEIT), resp. the Group NEUE EINHEIT of
now, and after he made new accusations when his older ones had
failed, he is trying a new fad. Now he has a  new reason for his
further absurd accusations against our organization: allegedly it
is the fact that we do not consider the RIM-declaration of 1984 as
a "CIA-document", a declaration which has also been backed by the
PCP. You can no longer take that seriously. It is perfectly
confused but also an insult towards numerous parties having
supported this declaration.  
As a matter of fact, there have been heavy attacks on Mao Zedong's
foreign policy of the time from 1970 to 1976, insultive remarks
against the Marxist-Leninist movement in Europe and more. Already
in a discussion during a conference of our organization in 1986-87
it had become clear that we could not accept the declaration.
Martens also attended to this discussion. But indeed we never
qualified this declaration like Rolf Martens now does. Indeed there
is no proof for such heavy assertions. It is only Rolf Martens'
next provocation in order to deflect from his former one.
Our endeavour aims at hitting falsities but in doing so also at
establishing unity. This also is the only way to fight the
subversion by the CIA or other imperialists. Our organization will
also publish short outlines about the attitudes of the RIM and
their declaration. 

Arbitrarily grasping at any point, Rolf Martens tries to talk his
way out and tries to distract from the fact that all of his
slanders up to now have failed. The mischief of Rolf Martens on the
Internet, his abuse of NEUE EINHEIT, his abuse of other
parties, inciting them one against another will come to an end
soon, especially because, among other reasons, he perfectly unmasks
himself. Hysterical curses and new slanders will not help him.

( By the way, though we have to oppose his slanders we are
absolutely against any exclusion from the unmoderated Marxism-list.
This would be wrong and by no means necessary.)
