Americans on Hunger Strike over Iraq War

05-07-2006 08:28 | Anti-militarism | Repression | Social Struggles | World

The war supporting collaborating media mostly use the expression 'Stars' to indicate that those people - which are well known and now on hunger strike - are different from other human beings: that it is some kind of 'whim', a caprice, a sudden desire or impulse by the 'stars' who want the global genocide to stop.

A Road to the Future - International Brigade visit to Nepal

04-07-2006 17:28 | Social Struggles | World

I have recently returned from Nepal, where I had visited as a member of the Second International Road-Building Brigade.

We were in Nepal for three weeks during April 2006, at the height of the People's Movement. Our experience included the general strike, the daily protests in medium sized cities where there were no other westerners, and a visit to a Maoist held "liberated base area". Indeed, from the beginning we aimed to get to this base area but were held up because there were no vehicles on the roads during the strike. In the end, we cycled 150kms and then walked into the mountains to reach our destination.

US will retain overall command

03-07-2006 05:15 | Anti-militarism | Repression | Social Struggles | World

The present US-led offensive in southern Afghanistan demonstrates that Washington is determined to maintain its grip over the country, which occupies a crucial strategic position adjacent to resource-rich regions of the Middle East and Central Asia, as well as South Asia. While NATO troops from Britain, Canada, the Netherlands, Australia and several other countries are due to take over key operational tasks in Afghanistan, the US will retain overall command. Far from ending the opposition to the occupation, the build-up of troops and their repressive methods will only fuel greater popular resentment and hostility, which is rapidly transforming Afghanistan into another military quagmire.

Australian government outlines pro-market agenda for its Pacific sphere of influ

28-06-2006 21:28 | Analysis | Globalisation | Social Struggles | World

The publication of “Pacific 2020” is part of the same process. Given the tiny economies of the Pacific islands and East Timor and their reliance on international aid and trade, these countries will be pushed into implementing its agenda—one way or another. Significantly the report was released a month after the publication of a “White Paper on the Australian Government’s Overseas Aid Program” which explicitly links aid to economic demands. If the threat of aid cutbacks fails, then the countries risk being branded as “failed states” and face the prospect of neo-colonial occupation, as in the Solomons and East Timor.
