Over 225 killed in Gaza and hundreds have been wounded in a series of massacres and crimes committed by the Zionist occupier against the Palestinian people in Gaza on December 27, 2008. From 11:30 AM to noon, the occupier shot dozens of missiles from Apache helicopters and F-16 planes at dozens of Gaza government buildings, directly in the middle of heavily populated residential neighborhoods and simultaneously with teachers and students returning to school.
Demonstrations have broken out throughout the West Bank and the Arab world in protest and outrage at the brutality and the nature of these massive crimes.

World Revolution Manifesto

27-12-2008 22:58

(Translator’s note: The greek version of the manifesto below has been circulating across websites in the country and arrived in the blog’s inbox as well. While I might not personally agree with all points raised in the text, what I particularly liked about it is that the ideas and what it calls for could have easily been dismissed as unrealistic exactly three weeks ago, but suddenly everything and anything seems possible… I never thought I’d be here translating a call for a world revolution before the end of 2008 but then again I never thought I would see the entire of Ermou Str - Athens’ main commercial/ shopping street - up in flames. It’s about time for ideas, plans and more action to kick in!)
