Here, Oleachea once more s hows his true colours. This dastardly lie about the liberation struggle of the AFDL led by Kabila in Congo - that it was "supported", and not *bitterly opposed* by US imperialism, precisely was refuted again and again by the facts, and (by me) in the debated which we had on this list in Nov 1996 - April/May 1997. This lie precisely stems from some of Olaechea's true ideological masters, the US imperialists. >But then, Bilenkin is not a Leninist in any meaningful sense of the word, >but a social-imperialist of the Khruschev-Trotsky school. In the beginning when reading some of Vlad's postings, I thought so too. But that's a considerable distortion of his standpoint. Vlad IMO does hold some wrong views, on the character of the earlier SU, for instance, but is an *honest* debater, quite differently from what is the case with the *pretended* "Mao Zedong adherent" and *real* social-imperialist Olaechea. On Olaechea's real character, shall I perhaps remind all of his close alliance with Ola Eriksson, Sweden, or of his statement on autocracy plus "communism" - on how the thwo can be "combined"?? That was in July of this year. Rolf M. --- from list marxism-general-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
