Police Repression of Antifa Demo in Schwerin

03-06-2007 14:13

Bin nazis poster outside Schwerin railway station
Saturday 2nd June

German Fascists called a demonstration on the same day as the major mobilisation against the G8 in Rostock. Antifa mobilised an anti-fascist response to the planned demo in Schwerin, north-west Germany.

Schwerin was eerily quite for a Saturday morning. German cops setup road blocks on the city's arterial roads in an attempt to filter out fascists and anti-fascists. The city's streets were deserted and the tram system was suspended. Posters showing a Nazi swasticka being chucked in a bin adorned roads around the city. There was little evidence of the "Master Race" mobilising in Schwerin but reports came in later that they had mobilised in Berlin and other parts of Germany. For the most part, local people we spoke to seemed confused about the nature of the counter demo, perhaps mirroring the somewhat confused interpretation of what really constitutes the radical left and right in Germany.

Israeli Rabbi Advocates Carpet-Bombing of Gaza

31-05-2007 19:29

It's this type of thinking that created this mess in the first place, and why the Extremists holding Israel hostage in the Knesset won't negotiate or compromise for peace.

It's time for Israelis to stand up to these Ideologues, end their di*k-waving contest, and make peace once and for all.

UK lecturers to vote on Israel boycott

30-05-2007 22:43

Note that Livingstone doesn't mentiona any real alternatives.

There is no 'peace process' while Zionist Extremism holds Israel hostage to its will, and the American Neo-Fascists aligned with them are driving it - while telling Zionists behind closed doors that any overtures against Israel are "just for show".

Whale slaughter in Southern Oceans

29-05-2007 02:33

Why is a Northern Hemisphere nation, JAPAN, permitted to flagrantly slaughter whales in Southern Hemisphere waters? Perhaps widespread inaction in the face of blatant Japanese smugness, arrogance, contempt for the environment, the International Whaling Commission and other nations is related to the world’s toleration of criminal wars resulting in hundreds of thousands of innocent human casualties! What chance do whales have if innocent HUMAN BEINGS are treated as expendable?

British Oppression Downing Street protest - the usual suspects strike again

26-05-2007 22:56

Well, well, well, or not, as the case may be. Friday 15th June appears to have a "Muslim" protest organised at which Muslims are urged to "Respond to the call of Allah and the Messenger." This apparently, means that Muslims should protest against British Oppression outside Downing Street, although this is likely to have to be outside the fortress gates of Downing Street, rather than immediately outside the front door of number 10, if it even gets that far because Downing Street happens to be part of an exclusion zone that prevents the population of the UK from protesting against anything, much less British Oppression, anywhere near Parliament or Downing Street without first having obtained express permission for so doing. Of course, there is nothing oppressive about having to obtain express permission from the very State against whom you wish to protest, unless it happens in some far off land such as Uzbekistan. Doublethink is good for you and better for your country.
