The Fourth International draws the attention of the international working class to the ruthless massacre of the Saharan people perpetrated by the Moroccan and Mauritanian collaborators of international imperialism since the invasion of the ex- Spanish Sahara by the troops of these two countries. The annexation of this territory by Morocco, under the pretext of a “selfdetermination’’ move made by the Moroccan-controlled reactionary Yemaa, has in fact led to a massive slaughter of Saharan youth, and of defenseless women and children, both in the territory’s capital and in the desert, by the Moroccan and Mauritanian armies. The Spanish army has covered up and collaborated with this slaughter.
The Fourth International calls upon the workers and soldiers of Spain, Morocco, and all other countries to actively oppose this vicious attack on the right of selfdetermination of a small people. It calls for active support of the Polisario Front, the only organization trying to resist this neocolonialist massacre. It calls upon the Spanish, Moroccan, and Mauritanian soldiers to fraternize with the oppressed people of the Sahara and to turn their guns against those who ordered this inhuman slaughter, who are also their own oppressors.
Down with the reactionary annexation of the Saharan people by Morocco!
For the full right of self-determination of the Saharan people!
Down with the bloody butchers of Rabat and Madrid!
Victory to the Polisario Front!
