"The documents obtained by WikiLeaks—only a small fraction of which have been released so far—help expose what is a permanent conspiracy against the democratic rights of the world’s population: from covering up US bombings of civilians in Yemen, to working behind the scenes to obstruct the prosecution of CIA agents guilty of torture, to spying on UN officials in violation of international treaties.
Those who are leading the campaign against WikiLeaks are themselves responsible for horrific atrocities. In the face of allegations from Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that WikiLeaks had placed lives in danger, Assange gave an appropriate response in an interview with Time magazine. WikiLeaks, he noted, “has never caused an individual … to come to any sort of physical harm or to be wrongly imprisoned and so on. That is a record compared to the organizations that we are trying to expose who have literally been involved in the deaths of hundreds or thousands or, potentially over the course of many years, millions.”

A quick review of some of the things happening as part of the days of action in the Netherlands to mark the banning of the noble act of squatting, which finally becomes law on october 1. But for sure the squatting won't stop.

…and we like tools.

To squatters, ex squatters, sympathizers, people that are using or have used squats in the past and were inspired by them and so empathize our call.

The Lewes Road Community Garden was evicted at 2am on Tuesday September 7. Bailiffs acting on behalf of land-owners, Belfast-based Alburn Minos Ltd and partners-in-crime Tesco came in mob-handed (eight-12 plus line of police outside) without a proper eviction notice and took possession of the land and the legally squatted adjacent building.

This summer's scorcher...
