GREAT GENERALISSIMO KIM JONG IL , LEADER WHO UPHELD THE RED FLAG

GREAT GENERALISSIMO KIM JONG IL , LEADER WHO UPHELD THE RED FLAG

The 1990s are remembered as being a very difficult period for the world socialist movement and anti-imperialist movement as socialism was frustrated in the Soviet Union and a number of countries. The imperialists and reactionaries noisily declared that it was “the collapse of communism “ and even “the end of history “ . Many communist parties suffered severe setbacks and a lot of anti-imperialist movements gave up. Some communist parties dissolved themselves or became social democratic parties , even anti-communist parties . In some parts of the world liberation movements laid down arms and hugged their enemies . The imperialists laughed and jeered that the Red flag was no more. One leader in the world held high the red flag , this leader was the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il !

The determination of the Korean people to uphold the red flag of socialism , the red flag of socialism was expressed in the song “ Uphold the Red Flag “ composed during the 1990s. Many years earlier the great leader President Kim Il Sung had quoted from the lines another song about the Red Flag ,famous in both Britain and the DPRK , “The Red Flag “;

“Let cowards flinch and traitors sheer,

We'll keep the Red Flag flying here"

This expressed the will of the Korean people to uphold socialism . Comrade Kim Jong Il ensured that the red flag was flying in Korea proudly defying the challenges of the imperialist and renegades.

The great leader comrade Kim Jong Il was totally unfazed by the frustration of socialism in the USSR and other countries . He declared “Socialism Is a Science “ and “Expect No Change from me “ . This dumbfounded the imperialist reactionaries who had hoped for “regime change “ , “reform “ and “opening up “ after the untimely passing away of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung in 1994 . The ideological struggle against capitalism is war without gunshots. In warfare attack is always the best form of defence and in the ideological warfare against socialism , comrade Kim Jong Il did not sit with folded arms but wrote many works such as “Our Socialism Centred On the Popular Masses Shall Not Perish “, “Abuses of Socialism Are Intolerable “ , “Socialism Is a  Science “ , “Giving Priority to Ideological Work is Essential for Accomplishing Socialism “ and “On Preserving the Juche character and national character of the revolution and construction “ which dealt sledge hammer blows against the imperialists and the modern revisionists .

Great comrade Kim Jong Il pledged himself to carry forward the Juche revolutionary cause of the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung and the red flag of socialism, in the work “ Let Us Hold the great leader in High Esteem forever and accomplish his cause”

“If we undertake the work of holding him in high esteem for eternity, we can exert a significant influence on establishing a true communist moral outlook in the international communist movement. Communist morality is pure, noble and genuine. The core of communist morality is

loyalty to the leader. In the past revisionists such as Khrushchev who appeared in the international communist movement, seriously undermined communist morality. Khrushchev, by slandering Stalin, gave the negative impression to the world that communists were ignorant of their forerunners in the revolution and fought one another. Lenin, the founder of the first socialist state, is today slandered by the renegade socialists, seventy years after his

death. Similar phenomena have been witnessed in other parties in the international communist movement. As a result, the communists lost the people’s trust and support,

and this ended with the collapse of socialism in several countries. By holding Comrade Kim Il Sung in high esteem forever, even more so than we did in his lifetime, we should

demonstrate to the world the outlook on morality with which communists support their leaders. Thus we can actively contribute to safeguarding and adding glory to the noblest

communist morality and to its worldwide rehabilitation, after it was marred by the revisionists and renegades of socialism.”

                     This sharply expressed leader Kim Jong Il's determination to hold the great leader comrade Kim Il Sung in the highest esteem and carry forward the Juche revolutionary cause holding higher the red flag of Juche. It also set an example to the international communist movement by safeguarding the pure communist morality ,the highest form of morality ,which had been smeared by the revisionists and renegades. In several socialist countries preceding revolutionary leaders had been slandered or diminished by their successors and their work negated . This had disastrous results . However in Korea this did not happen thanks to the wise leadership of the great leader generalissimo Kim Jong Il who upheld the red flag of socialism , handed to him by the great leader president Kim Il Sung the father of Juche Korea. Today the dear respected leader Marshal Kim Jong Un carries forward the work of the great leader comrade Kim Jong Il ,upholding the red flag of Kimuilsungism-Kimjongilism.
