I thought people might be interested in the following pieces which refer to the police infiltrating the Genoa protests to start trouble. They actually admited to doing this. Orla These are two sections from two articles on this subject. I have given the links so that people can read the full pieces. Protesters Beware Protesters Beware Italian Police Incited The Violence At 2001 G8 Summit, Official Inquires Reveal http://www.tompaine.com/feature2.cfm/ID/7099 ...'The word "Genoa" became virtually synonymous in the public mind with "violent protestors." Now it turns out that U.S.-trained police were responsible for the worst of the bloodshed in Genoa but that is not making headlines -- at least not in the U.S.A. In an official inquiry, police in Genoa have admitted to fabricating evidence against the G-8 activists, deploying provocateurs i read full story / add a comment

Fellow activists, Since the Zapatista declaration in 1994 and the French public sector workers strike in 1995 we have witnessed and taken part in a new social movement . The movement has grown exponentially and deepened from the 60,000 that shut down the WTO in Seattle 1999 to the millions that marched across the globe on February 15th last year. Our strength has been our unity together in our common outrage and desire to change this incredibly corrupt and unequal society. We are united in our desires for a world without war a world where the resources currently spent on military will be spent on schools and hospitals, a world without borders where all immigrants are welcome and a world without poverty. read full story / add a comment

“…another truth about fortress continents: being on the inside may be better than being locked out, but it's no guarantee of equal status.” - Naomi Klein. The existing policies of the Irish govt. to safeguard the rights of migrant workers and their families are "deficient and lacking in scope." - Human Rights Commission. The govt. says that the exploitation of migrant workers in Ireland is not a major problem, but this report reveals hidden levels of exploitation at the heart of our economy - including employers who are household names and considered "pillars" of their communities. - Prime Time Investigates, Monday, 26 April, RTE1, 9.30pm read full story / add a comment |
