Alan Woods, apologist for Great-Russian national-chauvinism, called for Putin to invade Ukraine in 2014

Back in 2014, the IMT denounced the Maidan Revolution as ‘fascist’ and celebrated the ‘anti-fascist resistance’ of the Eastern Ukrainian separatists, backed by Russian imperialism. At a pro-Russia solidarity gathering, Woods spoke. Hear him at 6:52 criticising Putin for not invading sooner!

That’s aged well. Aside from the fact that Putin did in fact invade by disguising his troops as rebels and annexing Crimea, he has now, eight years later, launched a full-scale invasion of the country. And Woods secretly supports him but doesn’t have the balls to admit it, hence the IMT’s hypocritical ‘neutrality’ in the ‘inter-imperialist’ conflict, which is in fact a pro-Russian neutrality. The loathsome Woods stooge, Jorge Martin, the IMT’s main spokesman on Spanish and Latin American politics, and also one of its main Ukraine-watchers, is tweeting the most disgusting, racist, pro-Russian and anti-Ukrainian propaganda on his Twitter page, smearing all Ukrainians as Nazis and bemoaning the ‘censorship’ of Russian state propaganda network Russia Today. What a sick man. If I were still in the sect, I would be under ‘party discipline’ to promote this bullshit.

It boils the blood to hear this ‘Nazi’ accusation levelled against a country with a Jewish President, who lost family in the Holocaust, and a Jewish PM, a black MP who is preparing to fight alongside his fellow Ukrainians, and a Jewish community that is prepared to fight in the army to resist Russian imperialist aggression. Meanwhile, the Russian ‘de-Nazification’ operation has just hit the Holocaust memorial site, Babi Yar. The IMT has some nerve, given its support for anti-Semites in the British Labour Party like Jeremy Corbyn, and its anti-Semitic propaganda against Israel.

Sick hypocrites who deserve to be ostracised from polite society. I would recommend that everyone download this video in case the IMT tries to scrub it off the Internet in embarrassment. That said, this organisation has very little shame.
