Because the ISO does not defend the Soviet Union against imperialist attack, they are impotent in the face of its domestic reflection: union-busting and race terrorism. The most hideous recent example of race-terror was the cold-blooded, state-organized murder of 11 members of the MOVE commune in Philadelphia by Reagan and his Black democratic front-man mayor Wilson Goode. However, despicable Joe Menn can joke in his piece about Klan-style "sordid and unhealthy...
