16. The Communists have utilized their control of labor unions, to augment the mobs operating under their direction. 17. Communist-controlled mobs have concentrated upon strategic targets such as police stations, radio stations, the American Embassy and other American agencies, in accordance with Soviet-inspired strategy. 18. As a rule the Communists and their Moscow mentors have disclaimed all responsibility for mob violence in the face of clear evidence to the contrary. 19. Leaders of the Communist Parties of Colombia, Venezuela, Bolivia, and Japan have been in Moscow where they have received instruction and directives, including training in handling mobs and military techniques. 20. The success achieved by the Communists in manipulating mobs for anti-American incitement will encourage them to further efforts of this kind on a larger scale. 21. The Communist Party of China has rendered valuable assistance to Communist Parties in Latin America and to Japan which have organized mob violence. This assistance has taken the form of training of leaders, financial aid, broadcasts and propaganda. This is, no doubt, the result of an agreed-upon division of labor with the USSR. 22. The establishment of a broad united front of organizations is essential for the mobilization of a maximum of non-party participants. 23. Mob violence as a weapon of the Communist Cold War possesses certain inherent advantages, which are listed herewith: (a) The Communists are thereby enabled to use the people of the country under attack for the undermining and destruction of the target government. No Soviet lives need be sacrificed. (b) The democracies operate at a disadvantage during such an attack, since they are dedicated to safeguard human life and liberty. They cannot ruthlessly mow down masses of people as the Russians did in Hungary, without trampling upon their most sacred principles. (c) By and large the rioters use homemade weapons easily available without outside aid. (d) The police or the army of the given country are likely to become demoralized when called upon to attack their own people, especially young students and women. (e) Mob violence has a tendency to gather momentum as a result of certain incidents and may reach unforeseen and unmanageable proportions. (f) If the government is weak and refrains from restraining the demonstrators, then the Communists will go forward with increasing demands. If violence occurs either provoked by the Communists or at government initiative, the Communists will always blame the government and use the issue for national and international progapanda. (g) Communists are trained to select the most provocative and incendiary slogans, those which are simple and easily understandable to masses of people, slogans which do not reveal their long-range Communist objectives.
