Thus we support the call by the SA National Defence Force Union (Sandu) of 1st April 2016, for mass action to remove the President and the entire parliament from office.

    On February 7, popular resistance forced U.S.-backed Haitian dictator Michel Martelly out of office following a flagrantly fraudulent election that sought to put Martelly’s minion in power.
