The greens in fact are supporting imperialist Genocide on the third world not through gas chambers but forced birth control and not giving the aids medicine that does exist to these countries. And the Greens are backing this shit to the hilt with their middle class petty bourgeois utopian ideology. And the stalinists and neo stalinists in the form of Jones and Proyect are the cheer leading section. Naturally only the DOP connected to technical advances can garantee that these projects are put in use in a real meaningful way..
