un any més us convidem a la tradicional Calçotada de Kan Pasqual, un espai per retrobar-nos després del llarg hivern i compartir una mica de catxondeo plegats.
Com sempre, us suggerim que porteu quelcom de picar, beguda o postre, que nosaltres farem la paella i uns calçots de l´hort.
Si no veniu molt tard, podeu participar del vermut i de l´enfilada de calçots. I a la tarda, partidet de futbol i guitarreo si porteu instrument.
Us esperem, i si doneu senyals de fum millor per calcular l’ arròs.
PEOPLE FLEE fighting in Afrin. (photo credit:” REUTERS)

Last week saw the coming and going of International Women’s Day – a day that went curiously under-reported here in the US. The silence with which the day passed was surprising precisely because the past year has been so remarkable in an opposite sense, bringing an upsurge not only in recognition of, but also in action against, gender-based harassment, oppression and inequality.
Putin Must Say STOPBarring accidents voters in Russia will elect Putin again. Just when Turkey is invading and slaughtering people in Afrin, Syria, with Putins personal permission. With just one word ..NYET .. Putin could cancel the Fly Permission as he did before when Turkey shot down a Russian plane, and Erdogan’s invasion would grind to a halt. Now for gas pipelines and arms deals Russia lets the Turkish Hitler Erdogan indulge in genocide to boost his personal powers. But what a vile bastard is Putin, bathing in mass nationalist adulation, when with just one word he could STOP the massacre of a people and their brilliant revolution.
The #MeToo movement was but one manifestation of this welcome development. From January’s massive Women’s March – the largest single-day protest in American history – through scores of political and celebrity downfalls last summer and fall, to Steve Bannon’s admission last month that “this time is different” where white male overlordship is concerned, it is hard not to hope we’re approaching a new push to equality.
The next action solidarity week is/was March 11 to 18th,

reposted via byInsurrection News The next Putin election is on March 18. The Inauguration rite after the reelection will take place in conditions of domestic terrorism and nuclear war threat. Russian security service have started mass repressions against all the dissenters with the regime, exerting unprecedented pressure for every dissident from liberal opposition movements to the anarchists.
Federal Security Service (FSB) conducted a series of arrests and raids on the homes of known anarchists and antifascists in Autumn, 2017.
Six anarchists from Penza were arrested and charged with preparation of a coup d’etat. The only evidence of “preparation” was the fact that all the detainees had played airsoft. During several months the detainees were exposed to everyday tortures, until they pleaded guilty.
Two anarchists were arrested in Saint Petersburg in January 2018. They also were exposed to the same tortures as Penza anarchists. Officers made them learn the confession and repeat it to the investigator.
One of the kidnapped anarchists, Victor Filinkov, was taken to a forest where he was tortured. Ilya Kapustin was also arrested and exposed to racks, he did not make a confession, so they nominated him a “witness”.
The massive Turkish Army and hired jihadi mercenaries (many of them ex-ISIS) have surrounded the capital of Afrin, though convoys of solidarity activists continued to get through on Tuesday.
The green and beautiful city is full of hundreds of thousands of refugees, a dozen armed volunteer militias, solidarity and women’s delegations, as well as international volunteers and human shields ….
Disgracefully, no nation is willing to ‘damage its interests’ by standing up to the terrorist bully or confront the openly fascist Turkish state under the now life dictator Erdogan.
Russia, the USA and their criminal followers seem only too happy to promote the genocide in Afrin and accept and propagate Turkey’s blatant lies as they destroy the only hope of ‘a non sectarian, anti sexist, anti-capitalist direct democracy revolution that could save the middle East and the world’.
While those in power seem delighted to watch Erdogan committing genocide with weapons sold by them, the mass media parrots Turkish propaganda with a zero basis in reality.
It seems that those in power are just laughing at the solidarity demos … so there have been calls for Direct Action against Turkish owned property, urging extreme care to avoid injuring innocent people. …
SOME OF DIRECT ACTIONS AGAINST TURKISH GENOCIDE IN AFRIN
We re-publish below a sample of the very many Direct Actions now taking place that have been reported on the tag #fight4afrin as the fascist hordes reach the gates of Afrin in their German made tanks and US planes, blitzing our comrades and innocent people with Fly-Permission from President Putin.
Armed with Molotov cocktails, we attacked and burned some vehicles from the German army (Bundeswehr) in Soltau last night. The trucks were parked on a NATO-wire-secured site in the Soltau industrial area, Carl-Benz-Strasse. We acted in solidarity with the fighting revolutionaries in Efrin.
#DefendAfrin: Llamamiento urgente para la movilización…..11 de marzo de 2018
comparte por favor esta información!
Escrito por Enough is Enough traduccion Google Este es el mensaje que Jacopo, editor del portal https://www.infoaut.org con sede en el cantón de Afrin desde el comienzo de la agresión turco-jihadista, nos entregó hace poco tiempo. Un llamado urgente para movilizar y romper el silencio frente al empeoramiento de la situación en Afrin.
En las últimas horas, la situación en Afrin se volvió más crítica: el ejército turco invasor y sus pandillas jihadistas aliadas se acercaron a la ciudad desde varios lados, en particular desde el eje de Shera. Están a una distancia de 2,5 km y amenazan directamente a la ciudad.
Demonstration in favour of anti racist, anti sectarian, feminist revolution in Afrin
La situación dentro de Afrin es la que continúa en estos días, luego la alta densidad de personas, muchos refugiados de las aldeas que encontraron aquí refugio de la guerra y los bombardeos, falta de agua, porque cuando los jihadistas y el ejército turco capturaron la presa Meidanki, cortaron el suministro y bombardearon las estaciones de bombeo en otras aldeas.

The Turkish occupying forces, with Syrian auxiliary mercenaries, have advanced to the city of Afrîn.
Demonstration in favour of anti racist, anti sectarian, feminist revolution in Afrin
Their air forces, thousands of tanks and heavy artillery from all sides continue to attack with impunity Syrian territory without any opposition from the government of Àssad, a necessary collaborator in the delivery of their own territory, and Russia, a direct accomplice.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights has confirmed that Erdogan’s forces are at the entrance to the city.
Erdogan has already announced an ethnic cleansing throughout the area in order to expel the native population and replace it with Arabs and Turkmans currently refugees in Turkey.
The Turkish forces have advanced northward by forcing the Kurdish militias to retreat to prevent the only evacuation being cut off, on the south, into Aleppo.
Sunday saw dozens of demonstrations across Europe demanding an end to Turkey’s war crimes, as NATO jets bombed Afrin’s suburbs where hundreds of thousands of refugees from their invasion have fled. There is little water as Turkey bombed the main reservoir and pumpìng stations.
At least one area has ‘human shields’ in the form of volunteers from Europe ( they were not hit but the bombing continues), and convoys of demonstrators and SDF military reinforcements are still arriving through Syria.
The defending militias have no air force, tanks or heavy artillery.
This is the message that Jacopo, editor of the Infoaut.org portal being based in the Afrin canton since the beginning of the Turkish-Jihadi aggression, delivered to us a short while ago. An urgent call to mobilize and break the silence in front of the worsening of the situation in Afrin.
Note: Enough is Enough is not organizing any of these events, we are publishing this text for people across the US and Europe to be able to see what is going on and for documentation only.
#DefendAfrin: Urgent call for mobilization
In the latest hours the situation in Afrin became more critical: the invading Turkish army and its allied Jihadi gangs closed in on the city from several sides, in particular from the Shera axis. They are at a 2,5 km distance and directly threaten the city.
The situation inside Afrin is the one still ongoing in these days, then high density of people, many refugees from the villages that found here shelter from war and bombings, lack of water – because, when Jihadis and the Turkish army captured the Meidanki dam, they cut the supply and bombed the pumping stations in other villages. There is also lack of some basic necessities.
Now the concrete risk is that in the next hours there would be an increasingly critical situation and that they would attack the city; even now there are artillery and aerial shellings in the peripheral areas of the city.
The Tev Dem called for a general mobilization, an uprising in every place and square in the world in order to defend Afrin, to stop the ethnic cleansing project that Erdogan and the Jihadi want to implement on Afrin’s populace, to ask for a no fly zone to stop the aerial bombings, that are also the ones producing a massive number of civilian casualties – if they were to further intensify and arrive to the downtown, they will surely perpetrate a massacre.
These actions are already taking place in many European cities, and in Bashur, too.

What has to be done now is to break the silence of the international community, that is actually conniving with this plan; this is what is asked to be done to all the peoples of the world in order to support Afrin and its populace, to support the revolution in Northern Syria, and then the hope and the example of the revolution of our century for a free and democratic society where many different peoples can live together, also representing a proposal of peace for Syria.
An uprising to defend Afrin, but also to defend a hope for the whole mankind.

Les forces ocupants turques, amb mercenaris auxiliars sirians, han avançat sobre la ciutat d’Efrîn. Les seves forces aèries continuen atacant impunement territori sirià sense cap oposició per part del govern d’Àssad, col·laborador necessari en l’entrega del seu propi territori, i de Rússia, còmplice directe. L’Observatori Sirià pels Drets Humans han confirmat que les forces d’Erdogan són a l’entrada de la ciutat.
Erdogan ja ha anunciat una neteja ètnica a tot el cantó per tal d’expulsar la població autòctona i substituir-la per àrabs i turcmans actualment refugiats a Turquia.
Les forces turques han avançat pel nord obligant a les milicies kurdes a replegar-se per evitar que quedés tallada l’única d’evacuació, pel sud, cap a Alep.
“U.S. foreign military bases are the principal instruments of imperial global domination and environmental damage through wars of aggression and occupation, and that the closure of U.S. foreign military bases is one of the first necessary steps toward a just, peaceful and sustainable world.”
The United States cannot be a moral or ethical country until it faces up to the realities of US empire and the destruction it causes around the world. The US undermines governments (including democracies), kills millions of people, causes mass migrations of people fleeing their homes, communities and countries and produces vast environmental damage.
A new coalition, The Coalition Against US Foreign Military Bases, held its inaugural event January 12-14, 2018 at the University of Baltimore in Maryland. The meeting was framed by a Unity Statement that brought together numerous peace and justice organizations. The basis for unity was:
