schengen is not for dissidents

09.09.2002 19:40

be aware that the schengen treaty is under temporary interruption (cable text says so) so any person with a "bad reputation" can be stopped at the border. you need to show your passports.
your baggage may be checked for black bloque utilities.

to me it is not clear what kind of legal or democratic process is responsible for switching borders on and off.
but obviously it is designed in a way that dissent shall be contained.

while the corporations and meeting attendants can act internationally, the right for demonstration and dissent is blocked within national borders.

this resembles the US situation where international affairs are solely under control of government, but responsibility to the voters is only shown for national affairs.

so protesters, whether they can manage to reach destination or not, should not forget to mention this unjust situation between citizens and officials. it is concerning Europe as a whole.

juif is wef is jew is...zionist...lingo news

10.09.2002 23:52

As the french were assaulted by murderous muslim youths the term "juif' was used. The cute little change at the top of this page is also showing up on the neo sites. (This is for the americans cruising merry old europe.)

You can almost set a watch by the anal use of language here, but I want to thank all of you white, spoiled brat euros and murderous islamic nutcases for the complete dedication to the altering of language to commit murder or mayhem.

It makes tracking you so much easier...And all that ranting on the arabic sites of "smiting" the jews etc etc...blah blah blah..."wef" or "juif" or "zionist" or "stucke"--it's all so comforting to know that anti-semites are just as stupid today as they were when they had to murder to get a verstiffen--in 1939.

And if you like trying to hit the US infrasturcture with suicide bombers getting orders out of Weisboden or Hamburg--you are going to LOVE the german-american diaspora's version of the suicide bomber. Nukes are so much more..what's the word? Dresden? That's it. So much more efficient than having to lie all the time and change wording and language. I love you guys. You're not only suicidal--you could set a watch by the mushroom cloud you're inviting onto yourselves. Suckers.
