McDonald’s Will Most Definitely Not Want This to Go Viral

Weeks after law lets burnt land be re-zoned.. Spain Burns

September rains are arriving yet multiple wildfires are still breaking out…. just weeks after the ruling PP abolished a law prohibiting re-zoning of burnt forests.  Fires are beginning all over, often started by local PP mafia who will later re-zone as building land and increase their fortunes.4096 (1)

Repealing this law is yet another blatant, greedy corrupt scam by a political/business class born under the fascist dictatorship. It stands along with other environmental atrocities like abolition of the Coastal Law to allow hotels and development down to the beach, proposals to tax sunshine which destroyed local solar schemes and backdated suspension of subsidies which destroyed the flourishing wind and solar farms., etc. Over 1000 politicians have been charged with multiple corruption, with almost zero convictions so far!!

….’A fresh fire has broken out in the town of Cualedro in Galicia, north-west Spain, affecting at least 1,000 hectares of forest, as seven fires continue to burn across the country: three in Galicia, one in Cantabria, one in Castile and León, and one in Catalonia and Extremadura…

Police abolished in Texas Town: Did Crime Rise or fall?

note ..in reality they  only replaced the cops with security men.. what if they really abolished the police!?

A Texas Town Fires Police Dept., Hires Private Citizens for Security, but Guess What Happened to Crime?town-fires-police-department-crime-drops

The community of Sharpstown, Texas decided that they didn’t need the police any longer. They made a controversial decision to fire the local police department and hire private citizens, granted no special rights that ordinary citizens do not have, to keep them safe.

That was back in 2012, and since then, Sharpstown residents say the private security company, SEAL Security Solutions, have done a much better job than the police used to. Crimes is down 61% in only 20 months. Continue reading “Police abolished in Texas Town: Did Crime Rise or fall?”

Fantasy Anarchist Terrorist Alert at Spanish Prisons

fuegoMedia intoxication in the International Week of Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners   by Balailo.info
The Spanish Interior Minister of State fears an anarchist attack against prison officials this week

A post here at vozpopuli  has “uncovered” a Prisons Circular recently distributed to its workers demanding extreme measures to protect themselves against possible suspicious packages received between 23 and August 30th. The reason for this is the “discovery” by the Information Service of the paramilitary Civil Guard of the international call for solidarity with anarchist prisoners from 23 to 30 August.

According to these coppers, the poster is “much more aggressive than the last year’s” In fact, you can read the legend “fire to the prisons and jailers”, which leads them to conclude that the “main objective of the anarchist movement” at the moment are Prison Officers “or any persons related to the facilities of the General Secretariat of Penitentiary Institutions “. All because someone added ”and the Jailors” to the traditional ”Fire to The Prisons” slogan. Continue reading “Fantasy Anarchist Terrorist Alert at Spanish Prisons”

A gathering of Zapatista women

Despite being continents apart, the struggles of the Kurds and Zapatistas share a common purpose – to resist capitalism, liberate women and build autonomy – and a common ideology. We have extensively covered what is happening with both the Zapatista revolution in Chiapas (Mexico) and with the Kurdish revolution (in Rojava province) via a series of articles over several months. Now we publish an article that explains the links between the Zapatistas and the Kurds – links that are not just ideological, but demonstrate similar day-to-day practices in creating social revolution.

(Note: this article is an edited version of an article by Peter Stanchev, University of Essex, that was first published in Kurdish Question. See also extensive links at end of this article, below.)

Only six months ago very few people had ever heard of Kobani. But when ISIS launched its futile…
