LA ZONA AUTÓNOMA UNIVERSAL:

12-07-2005 07:44

¿Que pasaría si lo que excede de la creatividad autodeterminada de cada nodo de la resistencia, pudiera disponer, de los sobrantes que tengan otros nodos anticapitalistas? Si los bienes materiales se complementasen, sin mediarse por la moneda, con los bienes inmateriales de cada zona liberada en América Latina y el mundo entero.

A LETTER TO THE BRITISH PEOPLE.

11-07-2005 17:57

What do you call what happened in the prisons in Iraq – in Abu Ghraib, Camp Bucca and the many other prison camps? What do you call the torture of men, women, and children? What do you call tying bombs to the bodies of prisoners and blowing them apart? What do you call the refinement of methods of torture for use on Iraqi prisoners – such as pulling off limbs, gouging out eyes, putting out cigarettes on their skin, and using cigarette lighters to set fire to the hair on their heads? Does the word “barbaric” adequately describe the behavior of your troops in Iraq?

G8, Africa and climate change: a good time to bury bad news

09-07-2005 18:26

When the news of the bombs hitting London broke on our campsite in Craigmillar, we all immediately reached for our mobile phones in the hope that friends were ok. In that moment, the G8, Africa, the protests and the police all became irrelevant. As good news filtered through, political minds inevitably began to drift back to the wider political implications. "This will definitely mean ID cards,” one sighed. "Iran will be next for the neo-cons," said another. "And Muslims are going to be hammered." Debates and disagreements broke out but on one thing everyone was agreed: this was “a good time to bury bad news”. And yesterday's announcement of the G8 deal on Africa and climate change contained a lot of bad news, whatever those idiots Geldof and Bono say.

The question is: why it is only these 2 NGOs who have the guts to come out and speak truth to power?

Europe and the Power of Capital

"The economic form of neoliberalism is based on political decisions, not practical economic necessities.. The 20:80 society is described as a goal of this global world.. Only the democratic nation-state can show the economy its place entitling it to exist for people and not vice versa.."
