Hi All,

If the following description of a socialist group called "The Party for 
Socialism and Liberation (PSL) has a familiar ring to it, you'll hardly 
be surprised:

"A proponent of "revolutionary Marxism," PSL's professed mission is to 
oppose capitalism, which the group defines as "the system in which all 
wealth and power is held by a tiny group of billionaires and their 
state," and to promote "socialism." As an anti-war group, PSL regards 
"U.S. capitalism" as the underlying cause of war, and calls for a 
"revolution" as the only viable alternative. PSL further believes that 
the United States is controlled by a "state monopoly" that includes the 
"big business media," the "Military-Industrial Complex," and "the 
corporations and the banks," of which the two major political parties 
are mere agents. PSL summarizes its agenda in a 64-page pamphlet titled 
The Party for Socialism and Liberation: Who We Are, What We Stand For, 
which articulates the group's belief in the "validity of Marxism and 
Leninism," expresses its support for "revolutionary Cuba," and attacks 
"U.S. imperialism" and the U.S. "drive for global domination."
