...CAPTURE of Phnom Penh last week by the Khmer Rouge is a victory for the Cambodian people over the corrupt Lon Nol regime and the imperialist American policies that supported it. When the Lon No 1 government surrendered, Khmer Rouge and former government troops embraced, signalling an end to the suffering of the Cambodian people after five long years of war. The new Cambodian government holds out the hope of social reform and simple honesty that were absent under Lon No 1. For that reason alone, those in this country who support national self-determination for Cambodia should consider...
...United States does not support Israel for any imperialist motives. Quite the contrary, its position in the Arab states--whether reactionary, conservative, or so-called revolutionary--would be infinitely stronger if it did not support Israel, for it could then compete more effectively against Soviet Russia for influence in the Middle East.

No imperialist state supported their settlement there, and they came through no imperialist motive: they came to escape Russian, Polish, and German persecution. They came to escape a massacre to which all great states, capitalist or communist, western or eastern, imperialist or any other term you will, were indifferent...
...national executive board (council or whatever) that the "NAACP has finally decided to do something concrete and call for this (May 17) action." Must one march over the concrete to do something "concrete"? Additionally, two national organizations, one a Marxist-Leninist group and the other a Third World anti-imperialist group, sent representatives to speak to Mr. Harper before the conference to "hear something other than what the YSA is saying." Is any more needed to explore the infamous "great pressure...
