IS WAR BETWEEN THE SOVIET UNION AND RED CHINA POSSIBLE OR PROBABLE?
The communists have always claimed to be the forces of peace. This claim has been based upon three doctrines which are axiomatic to communism. These are: War is caused by the capitalist system: Marxism teaches that capitalism needs war to operate; that war is the mechanism by which purchasing power is distributed to people to buy the overproduction that inevitably accumulates due to the surplus value of labor and profit. In the communist view, wars are a product of imperialism or capitalism in its final phase. Wars between developed countries are fight to see who can monopolize the raw materials and cheap labor of underdeveloped countries while wars involving underdeveloped countries are to force the people of these countries to submit to robbery and exploitation.
