Trump's art of the deal always has been to ask for everything, judge the point at which the other party has made his final offer and then take what he can get, says Ramesh Thakur. That's what he's doing with Ukraine.

english: From the Coordinating Freedom Imprisoned Anarchists we summoned to a manifestation at international level next the 24 of April in Barcelona, to 18 h. in the Seat of the Cathedral. The logic of the system based on the exclusion, repression and the hardening of the pains cause the continuous increase of the prison population. The dissidence is more and more represaliada as we have been able to state in so many places (Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid, Salonica, Italy...) We see ourselves in the necessity to show our rejection all prison system, thus we make this call at international level to demand the freedom of lxs compañerxs anarchists encarceladxs, and by a world without prisons
JAIL DEMOLITION!
CALL: BARCELONA (Seat Cathedral 18 h.) 24 OF APRIL OF 2004

The Ireland-Palestine Solidarity Campaign has launched a petition from politicians calling on the European Council and the European Council of Foreign Ministers to insist that Israel cease construction of the separation wall across Palestinian land on the West Bank. If Israel does not comply, the petition says, then the human rights clause in the EU-Israel trade agreement should be invoked to suspend Israel's favourable trading rights with the EU. read full story / add a comment

The potential for world public opinion to defeat the American occupation of Iraq has never been greater. Ireland holds a special place in the American psyche and Ireland will be front-and-center on the world's news media on Saturday, June 26th - when President George W. Bush visits Ireland. This is therefore a moment of great leverage for Irish opponents to the American war on Iraq. read full story / add a comment

national / anti-war / imperialism / news report Sunday April 11, 2004 13:27 by Disgruntled IAWM member   text 4 comments (last - tuesday april 13, 2004 22:44)
The IAWM is apparently intent on revamping itself after resignations, expulsions, disaffiliations and growing disillusionment has seriously affected an organisation now no more than a front for the Socialist Workers Party. The meeting has been announced on the IAWM website but has yet to be sent by email to members/affliates. The announcement has not been posted on Indymedia.

Members/affiliates have been given 13 days to submit resolutions along with nominations for a steering committee election (a new steering committee is required after the existing one lost half its membership through resignations). 13 days may be enough for SWP/IAWM ghost branches to discuss resolutions/nominations, but is wholly inadequate for genuine/functioning anti-war groups affiliated to the IAWM. The agenda itself is typically weighted in favour of SWP tutorials, with only 1 hour given over to resolutions/election to the steering committee, and 1 hour to discuss a constitution for the IAWM. read full story / add a comment
