Bin Laden spoke sense on Climate Change

  Bin Laden spoke sense on Climate Change                                        ……”It has become clear to all that they are the real tyrannical terrorists. In fact, the life of all of mankind is in danger because of the global warming resulting to a large degree from the emissions of the factories of the major corporations. Despite that, the representative of these corporations in the White House insists on not observing the Kyoto accord, with the knowledge that the statistic speaks of the resulting death and displacement of millions of human beings, especially in Africa. This greatest of plagues and most dangerous of threats to the lives of humans is taking place in an accelerating fashion as the world is being dominated by the ‘democratic’ capitalist system, which confirms its massive failure to protect humans and their interests from the greed and avarice of the major corporations and their representatives…….”

….Bin Laden ends his address by suggesting that Americans choose Islam as the ‘alternative upright methodology’ he mentioned, but I can hardly imagine the average citizen of America bowing down five times a day in the local mosque to pray in the direction of Mecca, stoning adulterers, and cutting off the hands of shoplifters…..

Defend Artkatraz OccupiedSocialCenter

Artkatraz CSO domingo 1 de mayo de 2011

El día Jueves 28 de Abril, a las 10:40 de la mañana, tocan a la puerta del centro social Arkatraz una persona representante de la empresa Metrovacesa, acompañado de dos personas más, dándonos el plazo de dos horas para desalojar el lugar donde hemos puesto nuestra energía durante un año y medio. Acción prácticamente imposible teniendo en cuenta que convivimos con más de 20 animales, que tenemos un huerto con plantas y árboles a los que hemos cuidado y que no podemos abandonar sin más, que tenemos un material que nos ha costado un esfuerzo crearlo y que costaría trasladarlo mucho más tiempo que el plazo irrisorio dado.   continua

Ecosocialism, Mumia and MOVE

By Derek Wall     Mumia Abu-Jamal — on death row for more than 30 years in Pennsylvania for a murder he didn’t commit — is an iconic figure. Yet while the struggle for his freedom continues, less attention is given to his role as a political leader.

Referring to the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, he said: “If ever there were a time to honestly question the madness at the heart of capitalism, it is now, as people are repulsed by what they are seeing, week after week, and now month after month, of environmental wreckage, corporate greed, and government subservience.

“Because, in truth, this is what capitalism, unbridled, unregulated, looks like: the spoilage of the natural world for private gain.”

Mumia signs this and many of his messages with the words “Ona Move! Long Live John Africa!” In doing so, he acknowledges the political influence of the controversial radical Philadelphia radical group, MOVE, an influence reflected in his ecosocialism.

His work in exposing the violence with which the authorities suppressed MOVE was the primary reason for Mumia being targeted and framed.

Mumia Abu-Jamal’s 1982 Death Sentence is Again Declared Unconstitutional

The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has unanimously declared that Mumia Abu-Jamal’s death sentence is unconstitutional. In today’s decision, the Court of Appeals reaffirmed its 2008 finding that Mr. Abu-Jamal’s sentencing jury was misled about the process for considering evidence supporting a life sentence. The Court found that, in violation of the United States Supreme Court’s 1988 decision in Mills v. Maryland, the jury was improperly led to believe that that it could only consider unanimously agreed upon evidence favoring a life verdict.

Mr. Abu-Jamal he has been on death row in Pennsylvania for 29 years.
