A big thanks for your efforts and we look forward to working together on the next 700! Below are a selection of the solidarity messages we've received. From the rest the greetings from Australia click here, for the rest of the greetings from overseas, click here. “I am a passionate supporter of Green Left Weekly because of its principles and because there is quite simply no other newspaper in Australia that so comprehensively reports and analyses the critical issues that touch all our lives. Warm congratulations on reaching 700!”
“Green Left Weekly is a fearless and uncompromising newspaper, that reports with courage and revolutionary commitment. The GLW is the only news source that I can rely on to access real facts and real stories from the global underclass. “As an activist working within the Murri community, I know that I can rely on the GLW to inform me of just what is truly happening out there in the real world. Our ranks would be greatly expanded if more people would only stop and buy a copy of this newspaper. The masses need to reject the fabricated lies and deliberate distortions of the Murdoch and Packer press empires and enter our struggle, through the pages of the GLW. “I say to the workers and editorial board of the GLW, bravo comrades! Bravo! You have formed a sacred contract with the workers of the world, to report and to expose and to champion the struggles of our friends and comrades across the world. I will continue to support you and to defend your right to publish. For you speak the truth.”
“The consistency and effort to produce a newspaper like Green Left Weekly over the years — 700 issues — is a significant achievement for revolutionary thinking in Australia. Green Left makes it possible to tell the world about what is happening in other countries that are advancing in their revolutionary projects, such as Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador and Cuba. Green Left is also able to condemn and denounce the many attacks made on revolutionary peoples and struggles around the world. Green Left is a tool of struggle and of solidarity. On behalf of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela I send this sustenance, a revolutionary greeting that you will continue in the ideological struggle.”
“The Department of International Relations of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba sends its warmest greetings and congratulations to the staff of the Green Left Weekly on the 700th issue of your publication. “Your militant newspaper has been very useful as a source of information and analysis throughout the last 13 years. Likewise, it has denounced the aggressions that the Bush administration and its lackeys have launched against all those who oppose their schemes to attain global domination. “We would like to deeply thank you for your solidarity with Cuba in our struggle against the criminal US blockade imposed on our people for more than four decades, as well as in our struggle to demand the immediate release of our five young anti-terrorist fighters who are serving unjust sentences in US prisons. International support is urgently needed to put an end to such an injustice. “In this battle for the survival of humanity, it is our most sincere wish that the pages of the Green Left Weekly will always be as green as the leaves of an eternally strong tree.”
- Department of International Relations
“We would like on the occasion of the 700th issue of Green Left Weekly to welcome the existence of a weekly paper that helps people to become aware and informed of the realities of other regions, particularly of Latin America and the revolutionary processes unfolding there — in Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia and other countries — and also to display real solidarity with them. “Congratulations on this anniversary: we hope that this very important work will continue to bear fruit.”
- Susan Price
- Chris Cain
“As an alternative media, Green Left has been playing an important role in beating misperception spread by the corporate media. So far Green Left has become an important news sources for the movement. Seven-hundred editions have marked your consistent work in promoting the alternative for a better world and broadening solidarity. We strongly support your work.”
- Agus Jabo Priyono
“In your 700 issues: Keep radical, sharp, and honest to become an eye of socialism.”
- Zely Ariane
“Long live Green Left Weekly, which is now an established institution of the left movement. I, like many others have it as my opening home page, as it's essential for keeping up with important political developments around the world. The coverage on the unfolding revolution in Venezuela has been excellent and very useful for us in the Philippines. An indicator of how well we're being covered in the international press about events in the Philippines is to make sure we get our stories told in Green Left Weekly. “Mabuhay Green Left Weekly! Tuloy ng Laban! (The struggle continues).”
