By ANF Published on Mar 7, 2021 via Kaos En la Red The Turkish dictator is offering juicy contracts (with commissions?) to the EU to recognise his ‘Human Rights Campaign’ while tens of thousands of innocent political prisoners rot in his jails. For a hundred days, political prisoners in Turkey have been on hunger strike against isolation and rights violations. As the repression has continued to intensify, the prisoners are not released even after serving their sentences.
For a hundred days, a new hunger strike by political prisoners has been carried out in Turkey against the isolation of Abdullah Öcalan and the violations of rights in Turkish prisons. Esin Çelik, co-president of the association to support prisoners TUHAY-DER in the Marmara region, spoke with ANF about the state of the hunger strike.
« The weeks follow one another and look the same. The horror is always there: murders of thirteen-year-olds, shooting of a fifteen-year-old, ultra-violent physical attacks on another teenager with a crowbar, screwdriver and other objects diverted from their original purpose.
Our era has a teenage youth that has lost all sense of reality. Our teenagers have all fallen on their heads! Life is not worth anything anymore!
At the slightest remark, at the slightest disagreement, difference of opinion, we harass, we kill, we beat, we massacre and then we go home quietly as if everything was normal..
Today, I think of you Alisha, 14 years old schoolgirl, cowardly murdered by two of your friends. Today, I think of your family and all those who are victims of such violence, such aggression… sometimes without return. »

Pour Alisha, 14 ans, assassinée le 8 mars 2021.
Assez !!!
« Les semaines se suivent et se ressemblent. L’horreur est à chaque fois au rendez-vous : meurtres d’enfants de treize ans, assassinat par balle d’un adolescent de 15 ans, agressions physiques ultraviolentes sur un autre adolescent à coup de barre à mines, de tournevis et autres objets détournés de leur destination première.
Notre époque porte en elle une jeunesse adolescente qui a perdu tout sens des réalités. Nos ados sont tous tombés sur la tête ! La vie ne vaut plus rien !
A la moindre remarque, au moindre différend, divergence de vue, on harcèle, on tue, on tabasse, on massacre puis on rentre chez soi bien tranquillement comme si tout était normal.
Aujourd’hui, je pense à toi Alisha, collégienne de 14 ans, lâchement assassinée par deux de tes camarades. Aujourd’hui, je pense à ta famille et à tous ceux qui sont victimes d’une telle violence, de telles agressions… parfois sans retour. »

Yet another disaster caused by rampant European racism, capitalism, slavery, continuing pillage of resources, the interest trap of unpayable debt and a history of physical and mental colonialism
While the EU deploys its Frontex anti migrant army and forces the last rescue ships off the seas, while European countries build walls and fences, and fail even to accept even their miserable agreed quotas of refugees. While Greece and Spain confine them on small islands. And States like Spain pay off local elites to close borders on desperate would be migrants.
But worst may be Turkey, which has extorted over 5 BILLION euros from the EU to close its borders to refugees (mostly fleeing from the western financed eternal wars in Syria and elsewhere). The Turkish regime benefits 3 times over from the refugees, by also letting them be abused as near slave labour, thus forcing wage decline for all workers, and by using them as a recruiting ground for the Islamic extremist mercenaries it uses in Syria, Rojava, Libya, Armenia …
At least 39 more immigrants die when two boats sink off Tunis
At least 39 migrants were killed when two vessels sank off Tunis on Tuesday while trying to cross the Mediterranean to the Italian island of Lampedusa, the Tunisian Defense Ministry said.
Lignite mining, express highways, gravel mining, parking decks, lime pits, and candy factories all have something in common that might not be obvious at first glance.
Capitalists need to cut down forests to make way for them. But all around Germany, people are mobilizing to stop them.
Over the past decade, forest occupations and forest defense actions have proliferated to such a point that we can now reflect on the movement as a whole.
Since February 26, 2021, people have been occupying a forest near Ravensburg called Altdorfer Wald. A gravel pit is threatening the forest’s existence and some activists who had earlier built climate camps and tree houses in the inner city of Ravensburg decided to live in the forest to protect it.
At the moment this occupation is not facing eviction.
On the day of the occupation near Ravensburg, all the way at the other end of Germany, police began the eviction of an occupied inner-city forest.
March 8 is and always has been a day of commemoration and struggle
There are those who have fragile memory, others simply ignore and there are some who better forget it.
March 8 is one of the many dates on which the murder by hand of the powerful of those who died fighting is commemorated, but unlike most of the fighting dates this was carried out exclusively by women.
Throughout the pandemic, the government has neglected students – particularly when it comes to housing. But a group of old school activists are stepping in and using their radical politics to fight for a younger generation.
The ethos behind the SolFed is anti-hierarchy and anti-authoritarian. In a time of uncertainty for countless students, these anarchists are not only helping a younger generation, they are also helping to pave the way for more accountability in the privately rented sector.
Echoing the sentiment of the National Unemployed Workers Movement, Plan C, and a plethora of other activist movements, the group campaigns against capitalism “because it exploits, oppresses and kills working people and wrecks the environment for profit worldwide”.

Mumia being held in the SCI Mahanoy infirmary
Dear Friend,
Let me be clear.
This is a life and death situation and we need to mobilize immediately.
Congestive heart failure. Unrelenting skin eruptions are causing damaged, ruptured, leathery, dry, exposed wounds. Not one spot on his body is free of dry cracked and bloody open wounds. No longer in an outside hospital, Mumia is back in the prison infirmary in excruciating discomfort and pain.
The message from his personal physician, Dr. Ricardo Alvarez, could not be clearer, “Freedom is the only treatment.”
