Paris clash between cops & demonstrators
by Guido UK IMC 17/3/06
Many more youth groups than just the students attended the demo. Also present was the working class and Algerian young of Paris both of whom have an axe to grind with the authorities. The CRS riot police kept their distance from the demo letting the marchers complete their route un-harassed until the end. At this point they made confrontation inevitable by blocking all routes away from the finish with tooled up riot squad.
If the authorities thought that the anger felt by the disenfranchised youth of Paris was dissipated by last year’s riots, they were sorely mistaken. The unemployed, Algerians and students who fought back against provocative and unnecessary repression at the end of the march had a rage that was deep seated.

Say NO to Depleted Uranium! Close the Lancelin bombing range!
by Architect of Change Perth IMC 19/3/06
Say ‘NO’ to Depleted Uranium!
Everyone in Perth who has seen David Bradbury’s compelling documentary Blowin’ in the Wind is asking "Are US and Australian forces test firing Depleted Uranium weapons at the Lancelin bombing range?..."
In the film US ambassador Tom Schaffer says: "Well, I think the DU issue is really a bogus issue…Whatever we do with Australia we’re doing with the concurrence of the Australian government and the environmental laws and what not that have to be observed here and I just don’t think that that is a real issue that will present a problem to us in the future."
Do you feel reassured by that?
