tory of the working masses.
This struggle-the only true
struggle against war-requires
at every stage the utmost clarity
and realism. Any illusion what
ever weakens it mortally. Above
all, the working masses of every
country must understand who
their enemy it. They must under
stand that the enemy is not the
people of Germany, or France. or
Italy, or Japan, or of any other
nation against whom the home
government may wage war, but
that the real enemy of the masses
of every country is the enemy at
home-the bourgeoisie and the
government of "their own coun-
try" They must understand that
any war which "their" country u11-
dertakes will be war to serve the
interests of finance -capital, no
matter what noble talk about
democracy" or "peace" or de
tense" or "collective security" is
used to justify it. And therefore
thew must resist to the utmost any
and every conception of patriot
ism, class peace, national unity, or
support of the government for the
conduct of the war. To such con-
ceptions must be, at all times, OPP
posed-struggle against the war.
