1. If our fraternal vanguard comrades in Turkey, Peru and the Philippines and any other countries where we have fraternal vanguard comrades unanimously or nearly unanimously ask MIM to join in a united front against Third World (TW) fascism, we will. We will also consider the opinion of fraternal parties in the TW engaged in armed struggle. [Section deleted--ed.]
In this united front, we will be asked to put aside our third cardinal in some realms of action for the benefit of international unity against TW fascism . We will unite with human-rights, civil liberties, labor and internationalist social-democratic organizations against TW fascism except to the extent that we will be allowed to criticize labor aristocrats and bureaucrats for blocking direct aid and solidarity with the TW Maoists. In the case of pro-labor aristocracy organizations like the AIFLD and Trotskyists, which never did anything for the TW revolution and in fact aided its repression, we will be allowed to criticize them as ever before. Our own cardinals for party membership will not change, but we will simply fall silent about previous targets of criticism unless they fail to mobilize against TW fascism in their own ways. In this way we seek to split the imperialist country labor aristocracy by encouraging an enlightened internationalist element to break away, perhaps with a minority belief that the economic position of the labor aristocracy depends on the raising of TW working class conditions in the long-run.
In the event MIM is criticized by its allies in public, and this appears to be a general line problem and not a one-time mistake by our allies, the TM and IM will be obliged to call a Congress to determine whether or not MIM will continue with its united front against TW fascism policy.
MIM would raise the issue of right opportunism, but if our fraternal vanguard comrades all believe that our d. of p. is not on the agenda and they are willing to state so in writing, then we have a duty to do what is best for the international proletariat, and not just what would be best for the immediate agenda of the dictatorship of the proletariat here. The above resolution will not be published, but it may be shown to our TW fraternal vanguard comrades.
2. In the event of the birth of a new "Maoist" party in imperialist North Amerika that is endorsed by Adolfo Olaechea and/or the CPP, MIM will adopt the following policy: It will publicly criticize whoever is newly anointed and the anointer. In the event that PCP derivatives or the CPP merely follow a policy of anointing none as vanguard, MIM will not change course.
If any fraternal vanguard comrades criticize us for our labor aristocracy line in public, we will criticize them back in public, even in the event of the passage of question #1 above, because presumably, in such a united front, we will also be owed centralist unity and non- criticism except to spur us to increase direct solidarity with the TW Maoists.
3. Depending on how badly events turn out, the International Minister may come to believe that we need to break with the revisionism of a fraternal vanguard party completely. Such breaks require a special Congress vote. They are equivalent to throwing several people out of the party at once, the only difference being we throw out our international comrades instead of MIM comrades.
