MURDER?

16.06.2001 13:14

Video footage showing one of the shootings clearly shows a protester throwing a stick or something at the police who were a fair distance away. The missile didn't land anywhere near the police, then the guy was shot.

Funny how that didn't make it onto the BBC, but they did show footage of police throwing rocks. The voiceover talked about aggressive policing. TOO FUCKING RIGHT!

Is anything justified in the name of the state? Will they be replacing tear gas with nerve gas from now on?

The media has its control over some of the population but it is time for those of us who are awake and can see the state of emergency humanity is descending into to come together and show the world the way forward. We can reclaim our lives and *they* are terrified.

The cop brandishing a loaded gun was not in imminent danger or defending himself in a life-threatening situation. He should be charged with murder, attempted murder, aggravated assault, and so should the European 'Democrapically elected' politicians. They have cordoned off a castle in Transylvania and shut down the airport in Slovenia for the CIA (George Bush) and the KGB (Vladimir Putin) to hold clandestine talks on missile offence systems (and sacrifice babies to Moloch.)

What can we do?

Things are really hotting up for the anti-capitalist movement. The people on the street are only armed with bricks and bottles, the governments are armed with tear gas, guns and weapons of mass destruction. Don't kid yourself that they won't use them on even the most fluffy of demonstrators. If their regime is threatened whether by stone-throwers, , they will kill them. Their guns are trained on us and anyone one of us could be murdered. This should not deter us. Whatever happens, we know our cause is right and just. Don't forget that while we are on the streets, the British government is collaborating with neo-Nazis who are participating in the Austrian and Italian governments. This is the greatest insult to our ancestors who fought fascism and were bombed in their homes by racial supremacists.

Now is the time to expect a stepping up of state violence and we must be prepared for the fact that our comrades will die in the the struggle for freedom. And the more they use weapons and intimidation against us, the stronger and more resilient we will become.

Don't let anyone convince you this is fancy thinking, paranoia or utopian ideology. We live in a world of war and we will become the targets of war if our cause for peace and justice gains ground. At least by being imprisoned or by dying, we know we are not living on our knees and we know that our vision is clear.

No justice - No peace!

I call upon activists around the globe to show thier solidarity with the people arrested and shot (!) by the police in Gothenburg, Sweden. The riots started after the police used bad strategies and violence agaist us. The dialouge that was ment to be was no more. Even if the meetings is going to be held in Brussels in the future, there will make no difference to the common people becuse the hide behind fences and police in riot gear. Direct action is our answer to the capitalist globalisation and the fucked up politicians how is there to represent us. Here in Sweden many are still chocked, but the struggle continue.
