Argentina Investigates Human Rights Crimes of Spain’s Franco Era – IPS ipsnews.net: BUENOS AIRES, Dec 28, 2011 (IPS) – A judge in Argentina has begun to investigate human rights crimes committed during Spain’s civil war and the dictatorship of General Francisco Franco (1936-1975).

This month, federal judge Mar�a Servini asked Spain for information on Spanish military officials, as part of a new investigation based on a lawsuit filed in April 2010 by human rights lawyers in Argentina in the name of relatives of victims of the Franco dictatorship.

The judge requested the names of military officers involved in the Franco regime; lists of victims of forced disappearance and summary execution; lists of children who were stolen from their parents during the dictatorship; and the names of companies that allegedly benefited from the forced labour of political prisoners.

Huelga de Hambre contra el Sistema/ Hunger Strike vs. the System,

Huelga de Hambre contra el sistema/Hunger strike against the system  (in English below)

 La situación económica que prercariza a los más desfavorecidos, no es fruto de una “crisis” sino de una ESTAFA producida por el sistema financiero y respaldada por los poderes públicos de todo el Estado español. A su vez, estos poderes públicos están respaldados por todos los políticos institucionalizados del país, desde la derecha, pasando por los nacionalistas, hasta la “izquierda”, con su muda política de “quien calla, otorga”, quienes, en vez de tener la más mínima decencia de abandonar todos los parlamentos para dejar gobernar a los ladrones en solitario, participan democráticamente del latrocinio institucionalizado.

Los ricos, cada vez son más ricos y cada vez pagan menos impuestos.  Los pobres, cada vez somos más pobres y cada vez pagamos más impuestos.  Los esfuerzos de nuestra supervivencia, sólo están destinados al enriquecimiento de los ladrones institucionalizados.

Por tanto, yo Francisco Javier Cañadas Gascón –Xavi para los amigos- nacido y residente en la ciudad de Barcelona, en plenas facultades mentales decido unilateralmente declararme en “Huelga de Hambre y Sed, indefinida” a partir de 31 de diciembre de 2011, a las 12,00h ante la puerta principal de la Generalitat de Catalunya, situada en Pl. Sant Jaume. Y exijo, porque en esta ocasión no es de recibo pedir a los políticos ladrones institucionalizados, los siguientes puntos, para deponer mi actitud:

1.- Eliminación por Decreto Ley del Copago sanitario.

2.- Absolución sin cargos de los 20 compañeros y compañeras acusados de terrorismo por el juez Eloy Velasco de la Audiencia Nacional, por el “Cas Parlament” del 15 de junio de 2011, porque considero que la disidencia no es terrorismo y sí lo es el “latrocinio político institucionalizado”.

3.- Abolición inmediata de todos los desahucios, con carácter retroactivo desde 2008.

4.- Abolición inmediata de la Monarquía.

5.- Eliminación, por decreto ley de la cámara del senado.

6.- Nacionalización de toda la Banca-Usura.

7.- Reducción del 75% de las retribuciones de todos los “Políticos Institucionalizados” de España.

8.- Reducción en un 200% de los presupuestos de Defensa e Interior.

9.- Requisación de todas las cuentas situadas en paraísos fiscales y expulsión permanente del país de todos sus propietarios.

10.- Aumento en un 200% de las partidas presupuestarias de Sanidad, Educación, Cultura y Servicios Sociales.

Hunger strike against the system / Hunger Strike Against the system

The economic situation prercariza the disadvantaged, not the result of a “crisis” but a SCAM produced by the financial system and supported by governments around the Spanish State. In turn, these public authorities are supported by all political institutionalized in the country, from the right, to the nationalists, to the “left” with its policy change “who remains silent, gives” who, instead of having the slightest decency to leave all parliaments to stop thieves govern alone, participate democratically in the institutionalized theft.

The rich are becoming richer and more and pay less taxes. The poor, we are increasingly poor and increasingly pay more taxes. The efforts of our survival, are only intended to enrich the institutionalized thieves.

Therefore I Cañadas Francisco Javier Gascón, Xavi for friends, born and residing in the city of Barcelona, ​​in sound mind decided unilaterally declared an indefinite “Hunger and Thirst Strike, undefined” from December 31, 2011, to the 12.00 h at the front door of the Generalitat de Catalunya, located in Plaça Sant Jaume. And I demand, because this time is not acceptable to ask politicians institutionalized thieves, the following points, to depose my attitude:

1 .- Elimination of Copayment health Decree.

2 .- Absolution without charge of 20 colleagues accused of terrorism by Judge Eloy Velasco of the National Court, on the “Cas Parlament” of June 15, 2011, because I think that dissent is not terrorism, and yes it is the “institutionalized political thievery.”

3 .- immediate abolition of all foreclosures, retroactively from 2008.

4 .- immediate abolition of the monarchy.

5 .- Disposal, by decree of the senate chamber.

6 .- Nationalization of the entire Banking and Usury.

7 .- 75% reduction of the salaries of all the “Political Institutionalized” from Spain.

8 .- Reduced to 200% of the budgets of Defense and Interior.

9 .- requisition of all accounts located in tax havens and permanent expulsion from the country of all its owners.

10 .- Increase by 200% of the budget of Health, Education, Culture and Social Services.

anonymous: Robin Hoods steal and give Millions!

 Anonymous hacks thousands of credit card numbers from security firm and cyphers money to charity.

Doing whatever it takes to bring some perceived justice back in the world…

Looks like the hacking group ‘Anonymous‘ has been back at it with its latest disclosure that it has stolen thousands of credit card numbers belonging to clients of US based security think tank Stratfor with as much a million dollars to date being donated to charity.

At present Anonymous is boasting that it has stolen Stratfor’s confidential client list, which includes outlets like Apple, the US Air Force and mined it for more than 4000 credit card numbers, passwords and home addresses.

To date ‘Anonymous’ has posted a small slice of the 200 gigabytes worth of sensitive client information, going so far as to go on twitter to taunt that more outlets have been earmarked in days to come.

Strike at the Heart of the Beast!

According to ‘Anonymous’ it was able to attain access to client credit card information because Stratfor failed to encrypt the codes, an embarrassing snafu for an outlet that’s in the business of security.

Hours after publishing what it claimed was Stratfor’s client list, Anonymous tweeted a link to encrypted files online with names, phone numbers, emails, addresses and credit card account details.

‘Not as many as you expected? Worry not, fellow pirates and robin hoods. These are just the ‘A’s,’ read a message posted online that encouraged readers to download a file of the hacked information.

What is particularly distressing to clients at present is the extent of information that ‘Anonymous’ has been able to steal and what some of the notes on various emails may have to say. Something that could prove to be very embarrassing as well as incriminatory given the sensitive information that an outlet like the US Airforce would be privy to.

This evening ‘Anonymous’ went online with images of receipts of charitable donations it already has begun to administer.

Hours after publishing what it claimed was Stratfor’s client list, Anonymous tweeted a link to encrypted files online with names, phone numbers, emails, addresses and credit card account details.

‘Not as many as you expected? Worry not, fellow pirates and robin hoods. These are just the ‘A’s,’ read a message posted online that encouraged readers to download a file of the hacked information.

One member of ‘anonymous’ went so far as to go on twitter using the handlebar, AnonymousAbu alleging that more than 90,000 credit cards from law enforcement, the intelligence community and journalists — ‘corporate/exec accounts of people like Fox’ News — had been hacked and used to make more than one million dollars worth of Christimas donations to entities that include for instance the Red Cross, CARE, Save the Children.Wishing everyone a “Merry LulzXMas” – a nod to its spin-off hacking group Lulz Security – Anonymous also posted a link on Twitter to a site containing the email, phone number and credit number of a US Homeland Security employee.

Kazakhstán Kicks off.. Smash the criminal State!

  kazakhstan kicks off

Kazakh resistance to State massacres

On December 16th (Kazakhstan’s Independence Day) more than 3,000 people met up for a demonstration at the main square of Zhanaozen, a town situated in the oil-rich Mangystau Province in the west of the country.

The people who took part in action were the ex-workers of local oil companies, fired after a bitter seven month strike. Their main demands were the payment of all outstanding salaries and improvement of work conditions.

As expected the oil workers and other town folk announced their intentions to hold a peaceful protest to the authorities of Kazakhstan. However, during the demo, a police Jeep was deliberately driven into the crowd of protesters and ‘peaceful’ went out of fashion from there on in. Angry people turned a police car upside down and set it on fire. A nearby police bus and a yurt (placed on the square “for the celebrations”) were

oil strikers camp Kazakhstan

also torched. Following this, the people, armed with sticks, pipes and molotov cocktails occupied the office of the local gas company and burned rooms on the ground floor of its office building. The local council building and a hotel were also burned. The oil workers surrounded the building and would not let the firemen get to the building. As an encore, they looted the houses of the rich in the exclusive, private area of town.

The state’s answer was to send army divisions, armoured transport and more police. The town’s population defended the strikers and, as a result of the attempt to bring it to ‘order’ more than ninety people (civilians and security) are said to have been killed, with eight hundred injured (these numbers are constantly growing).

Unsurprisingly, official media channels tell of much lower numbers. Many workers across the region have stopped work in support of the demonstrators. First oil workers of Mangystau Province started a sympathy strike, then workers of non-oil industries in the region also stopped their work in solidarity. The protests have become a general strike.

In what will probably become a 21st century standard ‘state-under-threat’ response, mobile phones in affected areas cannot be accessed, landlines do not work, Internet social networks and media are being blocked.

Of course, no mention has been made of punishing any police officers for firing on unarmed and peaceful people.The vast majority of the profits from the sale of the country’s resources are not shared with the nation’s poor, and the Kazakh government has a terrible human rights record. Time and time again members of the security forces, torture, beat, and mistreat detainees. The government continues to use arbitrary arrest and detention, and selectively prosecutes political opponents, often detaining them for long periods.

One might say that the spirit of the Arab spring has been taken up by Central Asians, but with the current low media interest (apart from a few newspapers here and there), there isn’t the same pressure on president Nazarbayev that there has been on Middle-Eastern leaders this past year (and they weren’t exactly exactly keen to fold up that pressure in any event).

However, Kazakhs don’t need to look as far away as the Arab world for inspiration. Another ex-Soviet Central Asian country, Kyrgystan, chucked out their despotic president Bakiyev in April 2010, following riots and demonstrations that led to Bakiyev’s ousting and the formation of a transitional government, headed by former philosophy lecturer Roza Otunbayeva. And what country did Bakiyev flee to? Kazakhstan.

No doubt president Nazarbaev has double checked his private jets are full of fuel and that his Swiss bank cashcard is still valid. Just in case.

Occupy Seattle: Rent is Theft !

    Squatting has become more and more common (or more conspicuous) as part of the Occupy movement. An unfinished duplex at 23rd and Alder has been occupied by a collective of people since mid November. That group of unnamed defendants have been summoned to court for eviction. The court date has been set for December 28.

2011: New Earth NOT FOUND.. hunt goes on

Despite the hype New Earth was NOT FOUND.

The best Nasa could come up with  was ‘Kepler 22b’, a gassy  lump  800 light years away,  I mean… Meanwhile their blog complained that future missions have been cancelled for lack of funds, and after months of silence took a lot of planets off their ‘possibles’ list, saying that ‘starlight is much more variable than expected’..

2011. Kepler fails to find New Earth

Finally on Dec 20th ‘Kepler 20’ system was announced.. earth sized, okay, but orbiting their sun in a few days at 1000s of degrees C.

What we expected were earth sized planets in the habitable zone, at a few light years distance, with a magnetic field, etc…  Statistically these planets must exist in the 1000s of planets discovered.

Nasa can’t find them because: a)The Kepler telescope is too small and the next ones (TPF and SIM) are cancelled. b) Planets in the habitable zone are likely to cross in front of their suns only once or twice an earth year, and  so take years to confirm by that method. They can spot ‘Jupiter’ gas giants and ‘Mercury’ hells okay. c) The ‘unreliable starlight’ problem.

The Kepler mission does release  huge amounts of raw data, after a long delay, so teams of scientists and individuals are searching like crazy, combining with data from other telescopes, exciting new methods and instruments, in the continuing hunt for New Earth.

It’s still  possible some genius kid could find New Earth in this big pile of numbers
