The Armed Workers' Movement for a Global Revolution (also known as the Armed Workers' Movement, the AWMGR, the AWM, the Fifth International, the Resistance, the Revolution, Musallah Amil Haraka li wahid Alami Dawra, and Mahada.) is a global leftist group - comprised mostly of communists - that was formed from a unification of several major organizations (such as the EZLN, Palestinian Liberation Organization, and many communist and socialist political parties) in Prague, Czech Republic.

The international spokesman and official diplomat - although not the leader - of the group is Ajene Xola. The organization is headed by the elected representatives from the member groups. This committee goes by the name of the Convention for Defense, the Defense Convention, or simply the Convention.

History

The Armed Workers' Movement officially began on May 1, 2004, after a meeting was called by the Zapatista Army of National Liberation to discuss a unified organization meant to bring about leftist revolutions around the world. The meeting attendees included Subcomandante Insurgente Marcos (EZLN), Yasser Arafat (PLO), James O'Connel (INLA/IRSP), Martin Guinness (Official IRA), and many others. It was held in a meat-packing warehouse in a delapidated section of Prague. The meeting ended with the brainstorming of a global group seperated into many smaller cells that could incite revolution in many different countries. This idea is a direct example of Leon Trotsky's global revolution - in contrast to Stalin's "socialism in one country."

The official drafting of the "Articles of the Working People" and ratification took place on August 6, 2004; however, due to the date in which the original meeting took place, the Defense Convention saw it fit to celebrate the establishing of the Resistance on the International Workers' Day.

Since the ratification of the AWP, the organization has kept active in international politics and activities of the time. The first major incidents connected to the AWM occurred on October 13, 2004, when Chechen rebels affiliated with the group attacked Russian administrative buildings and began taking Russian politicians hostage and executing them if demands weren't met. Using commandeered armored personnel carriers the rebels began attacking the police and military personnel in the streets, Moscow police stations, and major intelligence centers. The incident ended with the death of over 200 police and military personnel, sixteen politicians, twenty-five civilians, and sixty-seven rebels.

After the Russian October Massacre, security around the world began to tighten and the AWM was forced to travel deeper underground. It was at this point that a non-affiliated spokesman was elected to represent the AWM's affairs to the international community. Ajene Xola (a Xhosa South African) was placed as the official representative for the organization. He has been active in United Nations, European Union, and Latin American Union policies and assemblies in an attempt to voice the war-cries of the AWM. So far, little success in this theatre has occurred; however, due to Xola's young age and life-story, he has gained popularity among the world's youth.

The AWM gained major publicity again when on March 5, 2005, Richard McCoy (a twenty-two year-old Marxist) hijacked a Minnesotan personal aircraft carrying CEO of St. Paul Enterprises, Mark Durden, and his wife, Jacky Durden. McCoy demanded that a ransom of 2.6 million USD be paid to him or he would kill his hostages. Due to the Confederacy's staunch anti-communist opinions and no negotiations policy, the ransom was never paid. After ten hours of flight, the aircraft went off flight control's radar. Twenty minutes after the loss of contact, the Durden family airliner flew into the St. Paul Tower (headquarters of St. Paul Enterprises), killing the Durden family, the Board of Directors, and six civilians. Richard McCoy's body was never recovered.

From March 2005, violence and incident prevalence began to increase along with the severity of the acts. In late March, movement forces incited a guerilla war in the Democratic Republic of the Congo that has yet to end. The war was the result of attacks against the provisional government in an attempt to destablize the civil war stricken country in order to install a proletarian dictatorship according to communist policies. After the intially unsuccessful attacks, movement propagandists began giving daily radio shows and handing out pamphlets describing the goals of the Armed Workers' Movement. This dissemination of information caused support in the working class of the Congo to grow, causing membership of the AWM to swell. Currently there is no official death toll for the Congolese Civil War.

In April of 2005, a series of explosions rattled Jerusalem, Israel. A group of AWM affiliates (former members of the now assimilated Palestinian Liberation Movement) detonated nearly three hundred pounds of improvised explosives at the base of the al-Buraq Wall, causing the destruction of one of the most important Jewish sites in the world. A tape released by the attackers stated that, "the Wall had became a hot-bed for ultra-fundamentalist Zionism that threatened the working class. It was a breeding ground for ultra-conservative and pseudo-fascist beliefs. It had to be destroyed." Over fifty military personnel and twenty civilians were killed in the blast.

On July 4,2005, movement forces revealed themselves in the former state of Mississippi and opened fire on a White Knights of Mississippi meeting in Neshoba County. Resistance forces had been disguised as klansmen during the initiation ceremony. Upon the Lighting of the Cross, movement forces ripped off their cloaks and hoods and opened fire with automatic weaponry, mercilessly slaughtering all Knights that stood before them. The incident reached the media and was portrayed as a great victory for the AWM by radical leftist media sources. Over seven hundred klansmen died (including the Grand Wizard of Neshoba County), and fifty revolutionaries.

Due to the July Incident, the AWM remained mostly in hiding from July until January of 2006 when Resistance forces detonated explosives at the Tokyo Stock Exchange after releasing massive amounts of the chemical weapon sarin. The sarin kept police and rescue attempts at bay while the explosives were detonated. The destruction of the TSE caused an eventual collapse of the Japanese economy and caused the downfall of the government. After social policies were taken away, mass-poverty, famine, and pestilence took hold of the once First World country. After the collapse of the nation, movement forces and poverty stricken individuals advanced to dispose of the remaining wealthy, upper class. With the bourgeoisie removed, a proletarian dictatorship was installed and the nation of Tyrandis was born. It is estimated that four hundred military/police personnel, two hundred thirty civilians, and sixteen rebels died in the initial attack. Soon after the revolution and the withdrawal of Movement troops, the birthing nation fell into chaos when autocratic hardliners took control of the government. Current death tolls for the effects after the attack range from seven thousand to two million deaths.

Once again the AWM went into hiding. Currently it is unknown the exact level of activity that the Armed Workers' Movement is involved in. Interpol has reported several arrests of members of the organization; however, each has lead to a dead end. Current reports from the African Union have stated that there are active movement forces training insurgents in Minnesotan Sahara. It is unknown whether Minnesotan forces have directly encountered rebel militias affiliated with the Revolution; however, many consider it likely.

What analysts predicted in May happened on June 4, 2005 when Movement forces attacked a forward operating base in Minnesotan Sahara. The attack signalled a quick decline in colonial control over the country that eventually lead to a Minnesotan withdrawl from Western Sahara on June 17, 2006. The eighteenth of June marked the creation of the first workers' republic in Africa.

After the Saharwi Revolutiony War, no one really knows what is in-store for the AWM and the world. Yet, a forboding quote was stated by Musab al Sadr, an Al Jazeera International reporter: "It seems as if a new form of revolutionary is coming to light. [...] Yet, with the new revolutionary comes a new revolution - a world war. World War Three: The Workers' War."

Infastructure

The infastructure of the Armed Workers' Movement is set-up in a simple, three teir system ranging directly from the Defense Convention, the the National Revolutionary Committees, to the Committees for the Defense of the Revolution. Each teir has its own set of goals that it must abide by in order for its members not to be replaced by other elected members. For this reason, the AWM is an extremely efficient organization as it is capable - and does - remove unnecessary and inefficient members from the positions that may cause either detriment or success for the Resistance.

• Defense Convention (DC): The Defense Convention is an elected body which is the executive force behind the Armed Workers' Movement. It decides the best targets and how to attack them. It coordinates resistance movements and revolutionary groups in nations where it is necessary. Each member of the Defense Convention can be removed and elected via a vote.
• National Revolutionary Committees (NRC): The NRC's are nation based committees that administer rulings from the DC. They also can coordinate local strikes and attacks ordered by the DC. They - at times of dire war and conflict - can also order and coordinate their own strikes without the clearance of the DC. Their primary goal is the defense of the CDR's.
• Committees for the Defense of the Revolution (CDR): A generic term within the Movement. They range from small squads of individuals in cells, to massive army divisions and units such as the CISO. Members of a CDR usually choose their own title or name for the group. Examples include: Storm Division (army division utilized mostly in Minnesotan Sahara, Red Berets, etc. They are involved in virtually all activities done by the Movement.

Along with the three teirs is the international spokesman: Ajene Xola. Xola is responsible for diplomatic relations outside of the AWM. He is responsible to disseminate information about the group. He is also a mediator during times of dire strain between the AWM and the international community. It is a generally un-written rule that an arrest of Xola is against military and political tact.

Ideology

Unline many other leftist movements around the world, the Armed Workers' Movement wishes to create a global, unitary workers' republic that will advance society into a communist/anarchist society by any means necessary. They have been criticized for their use of excessive force; however, Xola has stated that, "you're either with the revolution, or you're against it." Thus, either you support the socialist revolutions; or you are a supporter of the bourgeoisie, capitalist establishment. For this reason, discussion and internal debate is a key point within the Resistance. It is the first revolutionary group that has united quite different beliefs under a single goal: liberation of the proletariat.

Due to is liberal views on beliefs (member's beliefs ranging from democratic socialism to Maoism), the Resistance has relations with virtually all major communist and socialist parties in the world. This gives it the unique ability to receive almost endless funding from donations from members of these parties and their own rebels. This financial clout is used to purchase logistics and weaponry for the organization which is used in their strikes and guerilla wars. The United Nations, International Criminal Court, and Interpol have attempted to stop this funding; but have achieved little success.

Territorial controversies

Vitøgorüd

Vitøgorüd is a small archipelago in the North Atlantic Ocean with official jurisdiction under Callisdrun, but operates as an autonomous and sovereign nation. Currently, Vitøgorüd is protected by a United Nations resolution which bans war to be engaged against Vitøgorüd in order to preserve a ground-breaking form of society.. However, due to its operating structure (the first entirely communist society in history) it is suspected that the nation has connections with the Armed Workers' Movement.

Currently, Vitøgorüd is seperated into the five municipalities of Hasmød, Kazmøv, Dovre, Zubstov, and Lena, with a population of over seven million. It operates under a directly democratic system where regulations and policies are made by committees formed entirely of the population. It has no centralized Head of State or Government, and its judicial branch is virtually non-existent (but when necessary, is a judge-jury combined system formed from a committee of the suspect's peers). For this reason - and its allowance of AWM members to live within its borders - it has created enemies for itself.

Palestine

On July 15, 2006, the Committee for Palestinian Reformation declared that the former disputed territories (Israel, the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, Jordan, and Lebanon) would be united under the single banner of the Palestinian Socialist Republic. Currently running under an administrative committee, the state of Palestine has many trials and tribulations to travel through before she is officially recognized by the international community. However, the state of Hallad and other socialist countries have immeadiately recognized the newly formed country.

The controversy, however, lies in the fact that many believe the Palestinian People's Assembly (or administrative committee) is merely a CDR formed by the Movement in order to begin to create a puppet state within the Middle East. It is also believed that this is an attempt by the Movement to tighten their grip upon recent operations carried out by pro-Minnesotan forces in Northern Lebanon. The world, however, must wait and see the actual outcome of these events.

Cuba

On July 25, 2006, a second revolution occurred in Cuba after Minnesotan Armed Forces withdrew from the small country after stating it was "secure from Leftist subversion and revolutionary deceit." However, the same day this statement was released, guerrilla units - along with popular support - stormed the Executive Palace in Havana to discovered the Minnesotan Interim Presidential Council had fled to Mexico City. Thus, the Second Cuban Revolution ended without bloodshed; and with the foundation of the Workers' Republic of Cuba.

The controversy arises in that Musab al Sadr was in Havana during the time of the revolt. For this reason, many international, political analysts believe that Sadr knew that a revolution was to occur. This makes many believe that the AWM was personally involved in the revolution.
