Cops forced to retract call to ‘Report all Anarchists’

The Metropolitan police initiated an embarrassing climbdown after a police station in Belgravia, west London, published a leaflet asking the public and businesses to report anyone with anarchist sympathies.

The call for information on a political rather than criminal group echoed a similar appeal for information about al-Qaida activity and “could have been better worded”, Scotland Yard admitted.

City of Westminster police’s “counter-terrorist focus desk” had last week called for anti-anarchist whistleblowers, stating next to an anarchist emblem: “Anarchism is a political philosophy which considers the state undesirable, unnecessary and harmful, and instead promotes a stateless society, or anarchy. Any information relating to anarchists should be reported to your local police.”

The move angered some anarchists who insisted that being an anarchist does not imply criminal behaviour, indeed the biggest problem with the anarchist movement is the predominance of Pacifists..

Capitalists, on the other hand are unanimously criminal and should be reported immediately

The City of Westminster is not a fan of anarchists, it seems, after their counter-terrorism unit sent out a document that includes a warning about the dangers posed by anarchists. Helpfully, the document defines anarchism for us. In fact, it defines anarchism in exactly the same words (and with exactly the same punctuation) as the Wikipedia entry for anarchism. Isn’t that a coincidence? Anyway, the document urges the reader to report any instances of anarchism to the police.

EDL: Lets Stop demo by Child Killer’s fans!

Counter Demos planned to Fascist March with links to mass murderer

Two national unions have joined local union branches and community leaders in backing the demo to celebrate diversity and oppose the racist English Defence League in Tower Hamlets on 3 September. The EDL – an organisation of racist and fascist thugs – is threatening to march through the east London borough on that date. This is the planned culmination of the EDL’s summer of hate. But its attempts to stir up racist hatred against Muslims in the multicultural, multiracial East End of London have been met with a wave of condemnation from across Tower Hamlets’ diverse community and beyond.

Assemble from 11am
Weavers Fields, London E2 6HW

TOWER HAMLETS ALARM CALL OUT

We are issuing this call-out to all those who want to join us in keeping Tower Hamlets FASCIST FREE – to all those who think they can help hand out legal info, defend the community or occupy our radical spaces. Whatever your abilities, there is a role for you to play in keeping the EDL from achieving what they need to boost morale – that is, an incursion into Tower Hamlets – the borough with London’s highest concentration of Muslims. This could be make or break for the EDL.
Some Groups may not wish to join us on the day in tower hamlets, from them we ask for solidarity. Solidarity Actions throughout London can help us greatly, whatever event whatever group has planned can you please do it on the 3^rd of September.
Solidarity is our Weapon – Class War not Race War!

Norway killer’s EDL links

Breivik’s Nazi email mates

Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian mass murderer, emailed his Nazi manifesto to 1,000 contacts around the world—250 of them in Britain.

Dozens of high-ranking British National Party officials are on the list—and plenty of EDL racists too.

EDL supporter Daryl Hobson got the email, for example, and so did a C Donnellan. Clive Donnellan is an EDL and BNP supporter.

Bill Baker of the EDL got it too. He said Breivik’s “actions were great, his targets were wrong.”

‘I inspired him’ says EDL man

When EDL member Paul Ray, aka “Richard the Lionheart”, was first accused of being Breivik’s “mentor”, he denied it and pointed the finger at EDL funder Alan Lake.

But a few days later, he’d changed his mind. “I definitely could have been his inspiration,” he said.

EDL/NORWAY LOGIC

COMMENT BY IAN BONE ….To stop us being blown up by Islamacist nutters the EDL fan decides to ….blow us up. He’d even done a martyrdom video and copied the Mumbai attack. I don’t share the general enthusiasm to identify any assocition with Nazi groups – he’s a fucking mainstream Tory. Interesting today how columnists like Rod liddle have steered away to other subjects rather than the usual anti-immigration line. they’ll be back next week – and the Mail headline reads ‘Burning hatred of right wing gunman who hated immigrants and multi-culturalism’……..now I wonder where he got that from?

ANDERS BREIVIK’S BIG INFLUENCE – MELANIE PHILLIPS OF THE DAILY MAIL

The Mentor of terrorism

I wrote a few posts ago that Breivik was ‘Richard Littlejohn with a gun’ well it turns out that one of the sources most quoted – or directly lifted and cut and pasted -is our very own hate merchant Tory MELANIE PHILLIPS of the Daily Mail…..6 times directly lifted from.

we’ll need 27 planet Earths by 2050,

Protecting bits of nature here and there will not prevent humanity from losing our life support system. Even if areas dedicated to conserving plants, animals, and other species that provide Earth’s life support system increased tenfold, it would not be enough without dealing with the big issues of the 21st century: population, overconsumption and inefficient resource use.

Without dealing with those big issues, humanity will need 27 planet Earths by 2050, a new study estimates.

The world population, currently at seven billion, is well beyond Earth’s ability to sustain. By 2050, with a projected population of 10 billion people and without a change in consumption patterns, the cumulative use of natural resources will amount to the productivity of up to 27 planet Earths, the study found.

Sustaining the current seven billion people on the planet requires a major shift in resource use. At present, the average U.S. citizen’s ecological footprint is about 10 hectares, while a Haitian’s is less than one. The planet could sustain us if everyone’s footprint averaged two ha, Mora said.

Another of the authors, Peter Sale from the Canadian Institute for Water, Health and the Environment, put it like this:
"We are just taking too much - managing forests in such as way as they degrade, same with coastal waters, and we have to stop doing this as a species.
"I don't have a solution - I have struggled for some time trying to think what is the way to get people to realise how important this is - but if we don't find it soon, the future is a very grim one.
"We're talking about losing 50% of species in the next half century - that's faster than any previous mass extinction event - and anybody who thinks we can go through a mass extinction and be perfectly fine is just deluding themselves."

THE SOLUTION To Over Consumption (some notes)

Assuming that a World anti capitalist revolution is not going to happen right now… more’s the pity… It’s high time that radical environmental groups began to think REAL.

One step that could be taken is to stop using fossil fuels. A huge but not impossible task. Renewable energy is approaching the level where it’s ‘cheaper’ than using fossil fuels. A safer, CO2-free non polluting fuel for vehicles has always existed SEE HERE https://thefreeonline.wordpress.com/category/ammonia-nh3-co2-free-fuel/

But the root of the problem is the mad greed and superconsumption that is the basis of the universal capitalist system.

A common sense moral approach would be for example to sabotage a coal plant, an arms or car factory etc. This is already happening, on a very small scale. Check it out HERE, https://thefreeonline.wordpress.com/category/prison Such largely symbolic publicity actions maybe only benefits the competition and put people out of work, but if many thousands of people were to start doing it …

Blogging to the consciences of middle class youth is all fine and good, but Direct Action on a massive scale is now needed.

Another sane and moderate idea (since their actions are destroying the planet) would be to physically attack investors and directors in the worst Corporations. Let them retreat already to the luxury bunkers they are urgently preparing. However the ‘ruling class’ have all the security forces on the planet just itching to pounce on anyone who ‘gets real’ in this way, and every media outlet ready to scream ‘terrorist’ for the next 20 years. Also the question of guilt is very relative, few really understand what they are doing, and all of us know we are participating in trashing the Earth…. cont/

nudismo: 500E fine for taking off T Shirt

Barcelona has followed other Spanish cities in banning nudism, or even ‘partial nudism’.. ie.. you can be fined up to 500 euros ($700) for Taking off your t shirt.. boys included. The ‘socialist’ party also supported the new law, which then proved impossible to enforce during the mass Take The Streets demos, camps and street assemblies. While the 15M movement demands revolution the far right corrupt Partido Popular is sweeping towards power.

‘Barcelona era la única ciudad española donde no estaba prohibido pasearse desnudo por las calles. Estaba planificado que la decision de si se aprueba o no la ordenanza que lo prohíbe, e incluso sanciona y multa a quienes no la respeten, se tomase en marzo de 2011, pero aún no se tienen noticias al respecto.’

Ir desnudo o semi desnudo (con el torso desnudo o en bañador) se sancionará con multas de entre 300 y 500 euros (el más alto se reserva para los reincidentes). Aunque el texto establece, que antes de multar, la guardia urbana avisará.

La nueva ordenanza municipal que persigue el nudismo y el seminudismo -concepto cuyos límites parecen vascular dentro de la subjetividad de la policía- ya ha generado las dos primeras multas Las sanciones, que oscilan entre los 120 y los 500 euros, se han impuesto en dos distritos cercanos a las playas

Syria: demos reach capital. 2000+ dead

Protests against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad swept into the capital Damascus on Friday for the first time since a growing wave of pro-democracy unrest began to put pressure on his 11-year rule. Thousands of protesters marched elsewhere across the country despite a fierce crackdown and some political concessions announced by Assad in an attempt to quell spreading unrest.

Desde el comienzo de las movilizaciones, según los datos que aporta la oposición, la cifra de víctimas mortales supera los 2000. Entre ellos más de 95 niños, el más pequeño de tan sólo 6 meses que recibió un disparo en la cabeza acabando con su vida.

Damascus: Syrian security forces shot dead at least 25 people while dispersing tens of thousands of demonstrators in the central city of Hama today, activists said, as anti-regime protests spread to Damascus. Activists in the city told AFP by telephone in Nicosia that dozens of other people were wounded. Security forces unleashed “intense gunfire” against a crowd of more than 50,000 people in Hama, according to Rami Abdel Rahman who heads the London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Multitudinaria manifestación en Hama(Siria)

La oposición siria ha vuelto este viernes a salir a las calles del país bajo el lema ” VUESTRO SILENCIO NOS MATA” refiriéndose al silencio de la comunidad internacional, destacando los países árabes.

Igualmente, y siempre según cifras de la oposición, ya se han registrado más de 30.000 desaparecidos y 20.000 detenidos que están siendo torturados constantemente en las cárceles del régimen.

El gobierno, por su parte, acusa a los opositores de estar financiados por las potencias imperialistas e Israel, y responsabiliza a grupos paramilitares de oposición de ser los responsables de sembrar el caos en el país, y de atentar contra las fuerzas del orden y la población civil.

Malaysia:massive multicultural movement

police-at-bersih-rally-300x224 — criminal police tear gas Bersih rally

KUALA LUMPUR, Jul 27, 2011 (IPS) – Following a major rally involving tens of thousands of protesters calling for electoral reforms in Malaysia, someone set up a Facebook page calling for Prime Minister Najib Razak to step down. Within ten days, the number of people who said they “like” the page crossed 200,000.

The rally and the subsequent backlash on social media are a sign of the anger that has been building up among a segment of the population that Najib may have overlooked at his peril: the urban middle class.

And crucially, the response has come from across Malaysia’s ethnic spectrum.

Malaysia is a multiracial country with a relatively young population. Around 70 percent of Malaysians live in urban centres, with rapidly improving Internet connections.

****************

On July 9, police fired tear gas and hosed down tens of thousands of Bersih supporters who took to the streets calling on the government to reform the election processes. A total of 1,667 people were arrested, said to be the largest haul of protesters in one single day in the history of the country.
Bersih estimated the turnout to be 50,000 and condemned police heavy-handedness which led to severe injuries, and a loss of life.

There have also been numerous photographs and videos surfacing online of instances of police beating protesters before arresting them. In one controversial case, the police are also alleged to have fired tear gas into the compound of a maternity hospital.

****************

Political analysts say Najib’s handling of the demonstration showed he is out of step with the sentiment of many Malaysians, in particular, a growing population of young, internet-savvy people who are less afraid to express themselves than their forebears.

“In the 21st century everybody has a mind and wants to express themselves. People were saying we are the boss, we elected you. But this was lost on the government,” says Jahabar Sadiq, chief executive officer of the news portal ‘Malaysian Insider’.

“Peter”, who doesn’t want to be identified by his full name, says he was inspired by video and photos of a frail, elderly lady at the rally who was defiant in the face of tear gas and water cannon. So he set up the Facebook page called Aunty Bersih.
