:_. f UNITY NEWSLETTER NOVEMBER-DECEMBER I967 - 18 - AMERICAN AGGRESSORS ARE_m LOSING IN VIETNAM It is now a matter of common knowledge that the American aggressors together with their puppets in south Vietnam, are losing the v/ar against the heroic and patriotic people of Vietnam. The spectacular victories scored by the National Liberation Front have sent a political shiver down the spine of Washington and have set a chain reaction of trepidation throughout the imperialist, fascist and nco-colonialist world* For the world revolution it is the dawn of a new day, It is a message of hope and a clarion call - on a global scale - to action, to "create two, three, many Vietnams". Early on Wednesday, January 30, 1968, north and south Vietnamese liberation guerrilla forces dropped rocket shells and mortar in the centre of the city of Saigon, attacked the presidential palace of the tottering American stooge Ky, as well as the U.St Embassy in Saigon. Da Nang city and many other places, cities and towns also came under heavy attack; enemy aircraft and buildings were destroyed and prisoners set free. With lightning speed the people's liberation forces captured e^nd occupied eight enemy cities. Subsequently the enemy v/as routed out of many more key positions• Behind these resounding successes is the military genius of the celebrated General Giap and the invincible v/ill of the fighting people of Vietnam to live as free men and women in their own motherland. To add to America's international troubles, her spy ship, the Pueblo, v/ith a crew of 82 was captured while violating the territorial waters of north Korea. This struck terror into the hearts of America's puppets in south Korea v/ho feared an extension of Vietnam to their part of the world* To blackmail their masters in Washington, the south Koreans asked the U«S« ior more help and threatened to withdraw their 46,000 troops that America uses as cannon fodder in south Vietnam. At the time of going to press, the liberation war in Vietnam seems to be on the threshhold of a bright new day. V/e salute the valiant fighters for freedom in Vietnam and join them in their resolution to fight until imperialism has been wiped out of, not only the face of Vietnam, but also that of the whole worldo U.No AND SOUTH WEST AFRICA The*South West Africa affair demonstrates once more to the people of the world the utter impotence of the United Nations. It has shown beyond any question of doubt how futile it is for the progressive and revolutionary forces to pin their hopes on the help that the struggling peoples of the world can expect to derive from that quarter. Once more, it has driven home to us the indisputable truth that the United Nations is an organisation that the big imperialist powers, like Britain and America, use to safeguard their economic interests all over the world. Since its birth in 1945, the United Nations has had a chequered history, which makes their handling of the South West Africa case, in all its ramifications, a logical one. The imperialist pov/ers in the U.N. will see to it that that body does not do anything that will antagonise the Vorster regime; that it does not do anything that v/ill jeopardise their huge investments in South Africa and South West Africa; On this reasoning, the outcome of the South West Africa case before the International Court of Justice v/as a foregone conclusion. /. ■
