The clearing of a house in Berlin-Friedrichshain begins. It could culminate in violent clashes between left-wing extremists and the police. The first fires have already been extinguished.
This morning the police want to evacuate the occupied house “Liebig 34” in Berlin. Hundreds of demonstrators gathered nearby the previous evening. Most of the young people stood in front of a small concert stage on Rigaer Strasse in Berlin-Friedrichshain in the evening and at night.
A hip-hop band performed and the atmosphere was peaceful. In the morning the police tweeted that objects were being brought onto the road. In the city area, several car tires, garbage containers and cars burned.
Burning barricade, stones and fire extinguisher against the cops
Berlin. Tomorrow the Liebig34 is to be evicted. A place of feminist self-organization, neighbor and ally. A symbol of the struggle against oppression by capitalist patriarchy. We have decided that we will not accept this situation without a fight. We also decided not to wait until the preparation phase of the cops is over. We defend ourselves and decided to go on the offensive!

For 30 years Liebig34 has been located directly on Dorfplatz. A small crossroads in the northern district of Friedrichshain, a little rebellious. Even before us, various people have filled it with life and contrasted the gray of the city of the rich with something different.
This different is nothing other than the idea that people can live together without an authority telling us what to do and when to do it. Without coercion and control, without elbows and competition, without one standing above the other, without exploitation of labor and without violence.
This idea is actually not complicated, if we would not all grow up in a society that surrounds us every day with work compulsion, blunt consumption, indifference, patriarchal and racist violence … in short: with the barbarism of the capitalist system.
And if there would not be a state that defends property, whose politicians talk about peace but mean war, whose troops beat up those who do not immediately click their heels for law and order and clear people out of their apartments and houses and put them on the street, which is why we hate the state so much.
Hundreds, maybe thousands of helmeted thugs have announced that they will occupy the neighborhood around Liebig34 starting today, Thursday at 5:00 a.m., in order to attack this house tomorrow, Friday, and to evacuate it with all their power. You may call it a police action – we call it another declaration of social war, which the states are waging against the people from the borders of Fortress Europe to the smallest street crossings of the cities.
European governments are facing anger, confusion and fatigue as they grapple with rising infections.
Even within countries, rules vary – with partial lockdowns, new mask rules and tougher punishments.

SICK TRUMP CUTS COVID AID TALK President Donald Trump announced he is giving up on congressional negotiations over another coronavirus stimulus package until after the Nov. 3 presidential election, delaying critical aid to millions and handing Democrats a potent line of attack amid a devastating pandemic. “Immediately after I win, we will pass a major Stimulus Bill that focuses on hardworking Americans and Small Business,” Trump tweeted on Tuesday. As his Democratic rival Joe Biden pointed out, Trump’s announcement is a huge blow for thousands of airline workers facing layoffs, millions of small businesses, and 26 million unemployed Americans. Later, in…
Desde 1959 Cuba ha sufrido la mayor cantidad de actos terroristas ejecutados por los Estados Unidos en el mundo, algo de lo que no hablan las fabricadas organizaciones que dicen defender los derechos humanos, incluido el actual Consejo de los Derechos Humanos de la ONU, la OEA, la Unión Europea, el auto titulado Observatorio de los Derechos Humanos en Cuba y otros organismos internacionales.
El accionar de la CIA por orientaciones del gobierno de los Estados Unidos, fue criminal, con el propósito de sembrar terror entre la población cubana y destruir el naciente proceso revolucionario.
El 28 de enero de 1959 se creó en Miami la primera organización contrarrevolucionaria, denominada La Rosa Blanca, bajo la dirección de Rafael Díaz-Balart, quien llevó a cabo numerosos hechos terroristas contra objetivos económicos y sociales e incluso infiltraciones por mar de grupos de emigrados para ejecutar esos…

During the Coronavirus emergency and the uprisings, the State has buried us prisoners even more in coffins of concrete and bars, treating us like rats in a sinking ship and completely isolating us from the world by cutting off all the few bridges that connected us with the outside world.
We are witnessing a multiple attack on multiple fronts by the State on the practices of solidarity:
Those who express their solidarity with prisoners in struggle are being attacked.
Those who in prison respond to the provocations of the guards and those who receive solidarity for the struggles undertaken are attacked.
Those who have participated in the riots and the protests in the prisons in the recent months are attacked: those riots that in Italy have registered 14 deaths among the prisoners, with reprisals ranging from beatings and disciplinary sanctions to trials with accusations, in some cases, even of destruction and looting.
Mientras continúan, sin que casi nadie les haga frente con alguna eficacia, la tortura impune, la violencia sistemática, el desarraigo, el encierro ilegal de enfermxs graves, ancianxs y enfermxs mentales, las muertes violentas, por sobredosis, por supuesto suicidio, por falta de asistencia médica o por nunca se sabe muy bien qué causa, y todas esas prácticas que hacen de las cárceles y del sistema punitivo cuyo centro ocupan una maquinaria de exterminio, algunos presxs sostienen el empeño de denunciarlas por lo menos y llamar la atención sobre ellas.
Erasmo san Pablo Tejedor, en la cárcel de Villena, inicia hoy su séptima jornada de ayuno, cumpliendo su turno, el cuarto, en la huelga de hambre rotativa que empezó con ese fin el 1 de septiembre. Se comprometió a hacer ocho días y sabemos que ha enviado escritos a las “autoridades” responsables de toda esa crueldad institucionalizada.
The Workers Solidarity Initiative (WSI) is a young group from Pakistan, which seeks to spread the principles, tactics and aims of anarchosyndicalism among the workers of this country.
They develop their activity under difficult conditions, political violence in Pakistan being daily, whether ethno-nationalist (especially against the Baluch, Pashtun and other minorities) or Islamist , not to mention the omnipresence of the army and the endemic corruption that plagues the country. Apostates and other “blasphemers” (real or supposed) are regularly condemned to death by official justice, when it is not the Islamists who are responsible for carrying out the sentence …
