Socialists Issue statement on the Death of Furhat"Gallagher was not a Socialist"
Kaliburg, Ananto
February 19, 4546

The Socialist Party of Kalistan, which withdrew from Kalistani Politics, and has, for the last few years, continued as a non-political affinity group in Kalistan, issued the following statement:

"The statement attributed to the assassin of the President, Sarah Furhat, which claimed 'Death to Capitalism, long live the Socialist Revolution', is certainly endorsed by any decent Leftist in Kalistan who disagrees with the direction our nation has taken over the past half a century.  But Mr. Gallagher is not associated, in anyway, shape or form, with the Socialist Party or any other socialist organization in the Nation.  Let us be explicit:  Gallagher was not a Socialist.  Some of our sources suggest he was formerly affiliated with the discredited Patriot League, and his ode to socialism during the assassination was a false flag to get Socialism blamed for the assassination.  This would be expected from a member of the now defunct Patriot League, which was, throughout the entirety of its existence, a terrorist organization of the first order who was able to use the quirks of Kalistan's electoral system to hold our nation hostage.

"We will take our opportunity to express condolences for the Furhat Family, and for the entire Nation.  While we are not particularly regretful concerning the removal of the Liberal from office, we are clearly in opposition to the method which resulted in her removal.  We will hold her family and friends in the Light, and offer them any support that we can which would benefit them in this time of their loss."
