One of these, the Revolutionary Socialist Party (PSR), is in no way part of the working class movement.

It is based on the "left" military officers and their civilian allies associated with the deposed President Velasco Alvarado, though through anti-imperialist and populist rhetoric it still has some mass following.

State peasant organisations set up by Velasco and dominated by the PSR have been dissolved.

The second group is the UDP composed of various Maoist and populist currents including Vanquardia Revoluccionaria.

The third is FOPEC, an elecincluding the POMR (Peruvian section of the "Organising Committee for the Reconstruction of the Fourth International"), and the Workers' Socialist Party (PST-Peruvian sympathising organisation of the 'United' Secretariat of the Fourth International).

Fight for release

The eleven deportees include Ricardo Napuri, general secretary of the POMR and Hugo Blanco, leading member of the PST.

The world labour movement must fight for the release of all the deported leaders from Argentina and for their right to return freely to Peru.

This requires a fight against the very existence of the repressive military dictatorships in Argentine and Peru.

In a week when Israeli-Egyptian 'peace' efforts have been virtually abandoned, listeners to Jimmy Young on BBC Radio 2 were regaled with President Sadat telling them that the Americans would now have to put pressure on the Israelis if there was to be any settlement.

Sadat has also been speaking this week about the possibility of further war between the Arab states and Israel.

He has been preparing for this, following his referendum 'victory' , by suppressing opposition parties and equating liberals and left wingers with the hang-overs of the old regime of King Farouk.

Purges With more news of antiCommunist purges coming through from Iraq, it becomes increasingly clear that none of the Arab bourgeois states is capable of defeating the Zionist state.

Nor are the Stalinists themselves even protesting at these purges-there is no sign that the murder of Communists will present any threat to the Soviet-Iraq friendship treaty.

In south Lebanon, Syrian forces are now being used to reinforce the UN buffer against Palestinian commando raids into occupied Palestine.

However, such attacks will continue, as active Zionist troops invading Lebanon service units of Jerusalem have number of recently.

The Zionist aware of the im the continued them by the liberation despite the placed on the hu hourgenis A and some of their own leaders.

Their raid on the Dahar El Burj camp, just south of Sidon on June 9 showed guerrillas in shown on a occasions are well portance of war against Palestinian movement, restrictions Palestinians rah regimes this clearly.

For the Israelis it is not just a matter of ensuring that the UN and Syrian forces will act on their behalf, or of 'promising aid' to fascists in beleagured 'Christian' villages in south Lebanon.

They know that the biggest threat to them comes from the Palestinian guerrilla movement.

This is why they went in on 9 June to destroy a few naval landing craft, kill some guerrillas and bomb to rubble the houses of local inhabitants.

Palestinian guerrillas fought back against the raiders, though heavily outnumbered and up to eight Israeli attackers were killed.

Such Zionist attacks as these will not in any way hold back the Palestinian revolution, or its support amongst the masses in Lebanon and other parts of the Arab world.

With socialist policies which challenge the Arab bourgeoisie and organise the working class, no force will be able to defeat it.
