More than a year ago, we united to try and stop a War (for Oil on Iraq).
And perhaps through our efforts we stopped many states from being involved in that War. We are still obliged to do our best to stop that War.
More than a year ago, a war against the West became very apparant. We may all hold our opinions on the causes of that War.
We are obliged to do our best to stop that War as well. I'ts called the War on Terror.
We are obliged to stop the Terror.
More than a generation ago, a war began in the Levant, it has touched our country, it has touched everyone.
We are obliged to do our best to stop that War as well by something we call the Middle East Peace Process. ... read full story / add a comment

in Geneva the same condemnation of black tactics from the mainstream /rightwing press only in Irl the condemnation comes from the so called people .
here 2 peices written by pink'n'silver bloc and black bloc shows the commitment to each other against the state's repression at that time and all of you on saturdays demo should take pride in what happened even if you dont like some tactics

I have been thinking about the mayday protest for a while now, particularly the confrontation with the gardai. Yet while I can think of plenty of negative results of the black bloc's decision to try force their way through the police lines, I cant think of ONE good thing that came from it.

Can anyone out there give me one reason why the day's events would have done less good if the anarchists HADN'T done that? In other words, what was the point? Can anyone give me one good result? And please, I'm not looking to start an argument -I was there too getting soaked with the watercannon, and I'm sure some of the gardai were heavy handed, AND i've nothing against anarchism but that's not the point. How in god's name did this decision contribute to the various causes we were protesting about more than it hindered them? ... read full story / add a comment
