Imperialism will not last long because it always does evil things. It persists in grooming and supporting reactionaries in all countries who are against the people, it has forcibly seized many colonies and semi-colonies and many military bases, and it threatens the peace with atomic war. Thus, forced by imperialism to do so, more than 90 percent of the people of the world are rising or will rise up in struggle against it. Yet imperialism is still alive, still running amuck in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. In the West imperialism is still oppressing the people at home. The situation must change. It is the task of the whole world to put an end to the aggression and oppression perpetrated by imperialism, and chiefly by U. S. Imperialism.

The main contradiction of history, the antagonistic contradiction between exploiters and exploited, is sharpening all over the world. The imperialists, headed by the U.S., with the support of the Modern Soviet Revisionists, headed by the Kosygln-Brezhnev ruling clique w the Soviet Union, are busy organizing secret conferences, hatching plots to impose big nation chauvinism on the people of the world, in order, to legitimise and continue their exploitation of the people, including the American people. At the same time they are developing the techniques of mass murder and oppression. The anti-imperialists, of whom the most solid are the anti-revisionists, under the brilliant leadership of Marxism-Leninism, Mao Tse-tung’s thought, are uniting the working and oppressed people into a one mighty storm against the enemy number one of all the world’s people, including the American people, that is U.S. imperialism and its accomplices, chief of whom are the Modern Soviet Revisionists. The imperialists and their accomplices are scared because they are attempting to run against the progressive current, which today is the age of the world proletariat and scientific socialism – the main current of history. The anti-imperialists are gathering courage and are forcing the status quo and reaction the world over to give way to the new. The people’s wars in defense of their fatherlands and against the most decadent imperialism of our times are flaring all over the world.
Death to U.S. Imperialism! Death to Modern Soviet Revisionism! Death to all kinds of Reaction! Long Live Marxism-Leninism, Mao Tse-tung’s thought! Long Live People’s War! Long Live the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution!
These are the slogans working and oppressed people of the world have in their minds all the time.
