Progress in all the
fields of struggle is guaranteed by a triumphant
struggle for establishing workers’ class and mass
formations.
Iranian working class is going to celebrate the
First of May, after one another year of hardships
and difficulties were made by glorious struggles and
widespread strikes. During last year, wide and
savage aggressions by the capitalists, owners of
industries and their supporting regime on workers’
life and work continued to worsen the terribly
insecure conditions of employment, earning of living
and increased workers’ level of poverty and
hardships. In confrontation with these wide attacks
and terrible conditions, workers defended their own
existence and demands by their continuous strikes
and fights. The brave struggle and strike by the
workers of Vahed company, the fifty-days-long strike
by the Sanandaj textile workers, the workers’ strike
in Qazvin, the strike by textile and Poli Acril
workers in Esfahan and the strike by the workers of
the Iran Khodrow company are only few examples of
these struggles and confrontations by workers for
achieving their demands.
Though the repression of workers’ protests has
always made a part of the ruling regime’s policies
and actions, but this time the fierce repression of
the strikes and struggles of the Vahed company
workers proved the climax of the regime’s obscenity
and aggressiveness.
Iranian workers’ increasing struggles and strikes,
especially in this year, and international support
for their demands have provided more than any other
time the tangible grounds for founding workers’
class and mass formations, which call for the
necessity of establishing these formations by the
activists in the worker movements, especially by the
socialist’s activists. In the absence of the
workers’ countrywide and class formations and united
and organized struggles, the Islamic Regime can, by
maneuvering and mobilizing its forces, repress the
workers’ spreading struggles in different sectors.
In the core of struggles of this year against
capitalism and for achieving its demands, the
working class has brought up a generation of
activists and leaders to fight on the frontline.
Knowing the workers’ demands and having a clear
perspective of the workers’ struggle for their class
benefits, these pioneer workers have made their
priority to strive for establishing mass and class
formations. The formation of follow-up and
coordinating committees for establishing workers’
formations, the establishment of committees in the
factories and the strife for establishing the
unemployed workers’ countrywide formations have been
valuable steps towards these targets. Now it’s the
time to start to found these working formations,
have practical measures on the agenda and not let
the working organizations to become mere sects that
serve sectarian purposes
Workers’ experience in struggling and forming
syndicates in Vahed Company once again confirms the
fact that workers’ wider participation in the
process of founding these class formations can make
these formations bear fruit and practically impose
them on the ruling regime and the capitalists.
Now and closing to the First of May, worker
activists and pioneers are planning to hold a more
coordinated and glorious celebration to show their
international solidarity with the struggles of the
working class and against capitalism. While
emphasizing on Iranian workers’ most crucial
demands, Mansour Osanlo and other workers’ release
from prison and demanding immediate and
unconditional annulment of the imprisonment
sentences issued against the arrestees of the First
of May in 2004 in Qazvin, it’s necessary to direct
the attention of more and more of the working masses
at the importance and the necessity of organizing
their forces and struggling to found the workers’
class formations. Triumph and success on this front
guarantees the progress on the other fronts of their
struggle.
It’s only an organized working class that can
execute the international verdict of recognizing the
First of May as workers’ international day, as a
formal holiday and workers’ absolute freedom in
holding this day’s celebrations the way they want.
At the international marsh, on the First of May,
Iranian workers condemn the disputes and
confrontations of the Islamic Regime with the US-led
west and Israel over the regime’s nuclear case which
is nothing but an internal dispute among capitalists
themselves. Knowing the backward nature of the
policies of both sides of the dispute and its
consequences, Iranian workers play their true role
on the frontline of the struggle against the Islamic
Republic as well as on the frontline of the
international struggle against war and imperialistic
militarism.
Long Live the First of May Workers’ International
Solidarity Day
