the Bööög, is one of Zurich's treasures, and at the height of that city's Spring festival "Sechseläuten" or 6 bells, the 3.5 meter statue of a snowman whose head is stuffed with explosives is set alight.

A group termed by Swiss press as extremist , calling itself the "1. Mai – Strasse Frei" (loosely translated as "Reclaiming the Streets on May Day"), is reported as sending a letter to the Swiss media claiming responsibility for the theft, saying the 3.5-metre tall snowman "had had enough of putting its head on the line for capitalists".

There was a well attended meeting held last night in Dublin where some of those arrested were present along with representatives from Anarchist Prisoner Solidarity, Anarchist Youth, Revolt Video, Peace Network and other campaigns.

There was a lot of discussion of how best to help those arrested at Baldonnel and future activities to support the 4 ( Details will be released very soon)

The legal support team who have been monitoring the recent events at Baldonnel have appealed for people who were present at Baldonnel to contact them with their accounts of the events.

It is important that people write up their experiences as quickly as possible while events are still fresh in peoples minds

Lots of film footage is currently being scrutinised by the Legal Support Team and we are aware that there is more footage and photos taken that day that may be of use in mounting a substantial defence for the 4.

Would people please forward their statements etc. asap to: weknowitwasyou -at- riseup -dot- net

For the past 11 weeks our Department of Education and Science and one of our Health Authorities have been in the High court spending millions of taxpayers’ money fighting to ensure that a young boy with special needs no longer gets the education that has been of great benefit to him over the last two years. I do not have to picture the spectacle, I know it well.

On Good Friday, six vine- and figtree planters were arrested after planting an orchard at the Ericsson Microwave arms factory in Mölndal [just south of Gothenburg]. The planters came from The Church of Sweden, the Mission Covenant Church of Sweden and the Swedish Fellowship of Reconciliation. They planted a vine by the fence, then climbed over and continued the planting of figtrees and vines on a green area by one of Microwave’s buildings. At the same time as a conversation between guards and planters was initiated, the vine- and figtree planting continued.
“We have read the prophet Micah’s vision that each of us should sit under his vine and his figtree, and nobody should threaten him. As Christians, we believe that the prophet’s visions are something we must begin to live here and now, and not wait passively,” says Klaus Engell. “The planting is a way to connect our Christian faith to our resistance to injustices.”
