History repeating itself in Hebron
11-08-2004 18:37
Even for Palestine, Hebron is shocking. The area has a population of 500,000 - the largest Palestinian Authority in the West Bank - but the city of Hebron was divided into three ‘zones’ in 1997. Settlers moved in and around the city centre in the eighties, and Hebron is characterized by some of the worst ethnic violence in the region.Weapons of Mass Disruption being made in Glasgow

Chavez Supporters Gather in Venezuela's Capital for Largest Pro-Chavez RallyCrowd estimates ranged from 100,000 (opposition) to one million (pro-Chavez)
Supporters of Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez filled Caracas’ largest public venue yesterday, packing the Avenida Bolívar for well over a mile and overflowing onto side streets all over the downtown. Clad in red—the colour that has come to represent chavismo in Venezuela—supporters bore t-shirts, hats, berets, placards, puppets, and inventive home-made signs all uniformly declaring “No!” to the recall on Chávez’ mandate scheduled for next Sunday, August 15th.

DIVIDE AND RULE:The new out of town middle class £60,000 per year chief executive (she is number 3 in less than four years) of the £62m New Deal for Communities neighbourhood that I have the misfortune of living in has gone even further when it comes to placing repressive structures into place to stop the unification of the wider community. Meetings, which involve the community, are now far fewer and everything has been centralised to the New Deal service provider’s administration with the chief executive being the all seeing eye of the project. The 13,000 resident community is still divided into five parts and each one of those parts meets every month with no contact with the other four parts.
Beggars and drug addicts disappear in Athens 'clean-up' before games
11-08-2004 06:10

They installed surveillance cameras and brought two surveillance Zeppelin to stop public dissent...
They deployed 80000 police, riot police and army troopers all over Athens...
Now they are kidnapping drug addicts and immigrants!!!! in order to make Athens seem "clean" and "civilised" like some of the western capitalist cities...
I think only Hitler was doing such things during the '36 games in Berlin... Let's hope the Greek SS police will not gas them as well!
