I just want you guys to know that there is a strong presence in the US supporting you guys. i have been involved in actions where the police have gotten out of control and know what you have been through

In solidarity,

hi Jeremy, you American protesters are a brave bunch, I imagine its pretty fucking hard to do what you do, our indimedia frontpage currently has a horriffic picture from an American action proving war is pretty much declared on us too. We dont have the horror of a country ripped to shreds and our loved ones dying, but we pretty much have targets pasted to our heads now. At our small, extremely peaceful demo at Northwood I saw cops indulge in eye gouging, pressurepointing, one guy was being pulled upright by his ears. They just mauled several greyhaired old women. I heared that at least one person was punched in the face. There was absolutely no provocation or retaliation on our side. We were occasionally threatned with dogs, soldiers pacing the perimiter fence with guns ready, threatned with arrest constantly. No one shot at us with steel ballbearings teargas or wooden bullets (phew) but its probably a matter of time. Thanx to all brave American protestors out there. It gives us hope and strength to know you are out there.

..and we do it anyway!
