In this very interesting report from Montreal Canada, we get a glimpse at some of the undercover activities of the state and police forces which are there to protect capitalism. What is reported is that an undercover cop was caught on video throwing rocks at a protest. Clearly the state and police are working hard all the time to manipulate public opinion to believe that protesters always mean violence and are associated with criminals. When they don't get the result that they want, they then go out and make it so. This is not unique to just the place where this report comes from. ... read full story / add a comment

With a clear lead it seems the Irish Military have won the latest "who sucks" site opinion poll which invited internet users to compare 23 Armed forces logos from across the world. http://www.who-sucks.com/politics/17-fearsome-defense-m...world And a quick look at the who sucks site will tell you why. Whereas other armies have gone for traditional crosses or swords, the Irish have settled for a swishy sort of harp thing meets a pregnant lady holding a spear. ... read full story / add a comment

Here a group of Iranian antiwar activists make clear their feelings about Iran and the support it gets from some on the left. They say: Iran is part of the world imperialist-capitalist system And its contradictions with U.S. imperialism will not change the nature of this regime. Recently we read an article “Standing up to Islamophobia” published in Socialist Worker Online (US). As a group of Iranian antiwar activists, we respond to this article concerning the direction of the antiwar movement. We think that the position of SW(US) is not in the interest of international proletarian revolution and must be opposed based. The position that the ISO is theorizing asserts that the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) regime is a progressive and anti-imperialist in nature. We do not believe so, and intend to show that IRI regime is dependent and part of the world imperialist-capitalist system. Its contradictions with U.S. imperialism will not change the nature of this regime. ... read full story / add a comment

There's probably nothing much in this, but today's Spiegel reports that several German ministry computers in their Federal government have been found to contain a cunning trojan backdoor exploration thingy which came from China. Of course they already have one that comes from the NSA in the USA, & heck - Real Player invented the whole commercial backdoor thing ( I know Richard Stallman just told me on a youtube video ). & then there was yer man Mohammad Afroze Abdul Razzak who infiltrated Microsoft on behalf of Al Qaeda coz back in 2001 coz they knew Microsoft were infiltrating your computers. So really at the end this is just about language practise & helping you feel European & most of all not getting too cocky about your hardware, software or extensions. All the major powers are in there & the arch-villains from Fu Manchu to Bill Sikes. ... read full story / add a comment |
