Δημοσιογράφοι του Indymedia στοχεύονται στον Ισημερινό, Πέντε Συνελλήφθησαν

Η αστυνομία του Ισημερινού συνέλλαβε πέντε δημοσιογράφους που σχετίζονται με το Indymedia Ισημερινού αργά το βράδυ της Τρίτης, 6 Μαίου. Οι τέσσερις από τους πέντε απελευθερώθηκαν τη Τετάρτη το απόγευμα. Η κυβέρνηση λέει ότι οι τέσσερις ακτιβιστές κρατήθηκαν εξαιτίας της σχέσης τους με τον πέμπτο κρατούμενο, κάτοικο Ισημερινού, Κολομβιανό Antonio Alcivar.

Η κυβέρνηση στην αρχή αρνήθηκε να εκδόσει ανακοίνωση σχετικά ή να ενημερώσει τους κρατούμενους για το λόγο της σύλληψης τους. Το Τοπικό Ίδρυμα για βοήθεια στα Ανθρώπινα Δικαιώματα (INREDH) σημείωσε ότι αυτό ήταν μια παραβίαση των συνταγματικών δικαιωμάτων των κρατουμένων να πληροφορηθούν ξεκάθαρα για το λόγο της κράτησης τους, όπως και για τις ταυτότητες αυτών που διέταξαν και ανέλαβαν τη σύλληψη τους.

May Day 2008 Parades

Since 2001, Euro May Day Parades on the 1st of May have spread all around Europe.

The May Day Parade is a transnational march which expresses the common will to fight the precarity of work and the criminalization of migrants, to make the daily struggles of the precarious visible. Every year hundred thousands of people protest against the precarity of work and life in a context where worktime can be expanded with no limits, and where migrant workers are the most precarious of all workers. This year, the EuroMayDay network called for a joined parade in Aachen, where, on the same day, French president Nicolas Sarkozy and German chancellor Angela Merkel received the Charlemagne prize. Referring to Charlemagne as the founder of Western culture, it honours people for their contribution to European unificaton. In Hamburg, one thousand nazis tried to recuperate the MayDay, ten thousands antifa met there and cancelled the nazi demo in the most violent riots in Hamburg since 80's. In Milano, there was 100.000 people in the euromayday parade [ video ].

In US, tens of thousands marched and held demonstrations on Thursday 1st of may, calling for an end to war and dignity for immigrants and workers. Dockworkers on the west coast defied their union bosses and staged a one day strike against the war, effectively shutting down all port activity [ pics ]. High school and university students staged walkouts in Venice and San Francisco. Protesters also called out unjust military recruiting and defended public housing.

In New-Zealand, near Blenheim, ploughshares penetrate Waihopai base and deflate satellite dome.

MayDay Parades and Immigrant marches were held all around the world:

Ημέρες Δράσης για Καταλήψεις και Αυτόνομους Χώρους

Ακτιβιστές από την Ευρώπη και αλλού, ονόμασαν την Παρασκευή 11 και το Σάββατο 12 Απριλίου 2008 ως μέρες δράσης για καταλήψεις και αυτόνομους χώρους. Μετά από μια συνάντηση στον αυτόνομο χώρο 'Les Tanneries' στη Dijon πέρσι, έγινε ένα κάλεσμα για ένα δίημερο δράσης σε υπεράσπιση των ελεύθερων χώρων και για μια ευρεία αντικαπιταλιστική κουλτούρα.

Ο στόχος των ημερών δράσης είναι η ανάπτυξη επικοινωνίας και αλληλεγγύης μεταξύ των καταλήψεων και των αυτόνομων χώρων και βοήθεια για περισσότερη προβολή τους ως ένα ευρωπαικό/παγκόσμιο πολιτικό κίνημα. Δημόσιες δράσεις έχουν οργανωθεί σε Αυστρία, Λευκορωσία, Τσεχία, Δανία, Φινλανδία, Γαλλία, Γερμανία, Ελλάδα, Ιρλανδία, Ισραήλ, Ιταλία, Λιθουανία, Ολλανδία, Νέα Ζηλανδία, Νορβηγία, Πολωνία, Πορτογαλία, Σερβία, Σουηδία και άλλα μέρη.

Στη Κοπεγχάγη τα πράγματα ήδη ξεκίνησαν με μια πρώτη δράση ως βοήθεια στη δημιουργία ενός νέου Ungdomshuset 'Σπίτι Νεολαίας'. Η δράση πραγματοποιήθηκε με 5000 άτομα να συμμετέχουν σε μια διαδήλωση και ένα μαζικό πάρτυ δρόμου. Στην Μεγάλη Βρετανία, νέες καταλήψεις άνοιξαν ήδη στο Κέντρο του Leeds, Nottingham, και στο Λονδίνο. Και άλλες πρόωρες δράσεις έλαβαν μέρος σε Άμστερνταμ (nl) (pl) (en), Αμβούργο (de) και Ινσμπρουκ (de). Ένας στόχος για το διήμερο δράσης είναι να "εμπνεύσει και να δώσει δύναμη στους ανθρώπους" που δεν είχαν προηγούμενη γνώση σχετικά με τις καταλήψεις. Συζητώντας για καμπάνιες και μοιράζοντας τη γνώση και τις ικανότητες μπορούμε να στηρίξουμε ο ένας τον άλλο και να δώσουμε δύναμη στους εαυτούς μας, όπως επίσης και να τραβήξουμε νέο κόσμο δημιουργώντας ένα συναρπαστικο μέρος με παλμό.

Σε ολόκληρο το διήμερο θα υπάρχει κάλυψη από ανεξάρτητα μέσα των δράσεων, βίντεο και ράδιοφωνικές αναφορές από όλη την Ευρώπη.

Violent Repression At NATO Summit in Romania

At approximately 12:30pm on 2nd April hundreds of Romanian police violently raided a convergence center in Bucharest, the country's capital. The convergence space was set up to facilitate an anti-NATO gathering and was legally rented. It is reported that during the raid at least two protesters were hospitalized. Various reports state people are badly beaten while in custody and even while taken to hospital. Numerous people are reported to be seriously injured and some have been refused medical assistance while in custody.

It is estimated that 46 people have been arrested. No demonstration or action had happened before the raid and all the arrests were made inside the convergence center. Police officers were masked and reportedly very aggressive towards journalists trying to access the scene. The convergence center is located near the center of Bucharest, which is hosting a NATO summit that just got underway today. It is estimated that up to 27,000 police officers, military, snipers and secret police are 'guarding' the city. The security alert code yellow has been announced, meaning that all demonstrations are forbidden in the whole city amongst other restrictive laws.

Santuario Sagradao Xamanico ameaçado pela especulação imobiliária em Brasilia, Brasil

Em Brasília, a Administração local quer construir um bairro de luxo denominado "Noroeste", no lugar onde vivem indígenas de várias Etnias: Fulni-ô/Thapuwia, Tuxá, Cariri-Xocó, que há mais de 30 anos reocuparam o local (que no processo de invasão lusa lhes foi roubado) . O Santuário dos Pagés é a última área da vegetação nativa do Cerrado na capital do País. É um santuário ambiental de grande valor para a recarga da bacia hidrográfica, sendo ao mesmo tempo a pousada para indígenas em trânsito no Distrito Federal além d@s indígenas que lá vivem, que nestas paisagens se reconectam com a sabedoria ancestral e suas práticas espirituais e culturais.

The company was chosen for the award because of their recent eco-branding program which "attempts to give their customers the impression that damage to the climate due to air travel can can be offset". Read report. Read full reports: Aotearoa Indymedia.

Five Years Too Many!! the US anti-war movement steps it up

On the 5th anniversary of the Iraq invasion, anti-war protesters across the United States stepped up actions of civil disobedience to make their voices heard. From Washington, DC to San Francisco to Boston, hundreds of people were arrested while blockading streets; targeting federal buildings, corporate headquarters and military recruitment stations; and participating in walkouts. Thousands more participated in vigils and support demonstrations. See Below for Roundup of Actions.

These actions followed what is probably most significant and underreported anti-war action in the last 5-years — the Iraq Veterans Against the War's "Winter Soldier" hearings. For four days in Washington, DC, former US military who were in Iraq and Afghanistan testified about US war crimes in the two wars and dramatically condemned the Bush administration and Pentagon for starting the wars. "Winter Soldier" hearings were first held in 1971 in DC by the Vietnam Veterans Against The War and were pivotal in bringing the Vietnam War to an end. This year's hearings were broadcast live on the internet and they were seen by the public at many locations organized by anti-war activists in multiple states; however, the IVAW Winter Soldier was largely ignored by most corporate media. Coverage from Washington DC | NYC | Boston | Rustbelt Radio | Indybay | Baltimore

The last few weeks also saw scattered nationwide protests against the war on International Women's Day. These mass actions follow a year of innovation in the anti-war movement, including the successful targeting of military recruitment centers, corporations and war shipment operations in port cities; as well as the continual gathering of thousands of weekly and monthly peace vigils nationwide (see Eagle Rock, CA, Washington County, OR).

The latest poll in March showed that 65% of Americans are opposed to the war in Iraq, yet coverage of the anti-war movement by corporate media has continued to decline. Organizers and independent media workers are working to counter that silence. A statement released by students in Portland, OR, reads: "We as students also believe that anti-war efforts have been too moderate and passive to make a difference."
