Western Sahara is the last colony on the African continent. The international right to self-determination didn’t seem like a valid enough option for half a million Saharawis. Their country is still occupied by Morocco. Since 1975, nearly 200.000 refugees have had to live in camps under the harshest of conditions.
This article contains the opininon of representives of Saharawi Student Union (UESARIO)about the needed strategie to realise self-determination of Saharawi people.

In the days before the eviction signboards were put up, that forbid parking in front of Liebig 14. In a wider radius, neighbours decided voluntarely not to parc their car in the kiez and better be brought home with a taxi. It created a weird calm that was cut by helicopters passing by, humming police cars and crashing glas-bottles.
In severe coldness any people decided to stay in the streets during all the night before the eviction. Sometimes there was live music that smoothend our nerves on the edge (?? better translation please!!). Some people try to limber up at the bakery. Many just wanted to be there without knowing exactly how to contribute actively in the awful spectacle coming up.
Wait? – Or take the time by the forelock with a walk through the neighbourhood? Those, who are outside, have all of the time and all of Berlin. For those, who are inside the Liebig 14, the juridically appointed deadline gets closer, 8 o'clock, and there is still work to be done at the Barricades.

The "Piracy Trial" in Hamburg -- part of European war logic

Translation of an article written by one of the trial observers.

"The prosecution of alleged pirates is an important, deterring part of the actions against piracy" the web site of the German foreign office states under the heading of the EU anti-piracy mission 'Atalanta'. Since November 2010, ten Somali have been standing trial in Hamburg, three of them under-age, having the mentioned deterrence performed on them.

In this piece I try to formulate an analysis of the creative potential but also societal barriers that the Occupy movements meet in the Western world. Now that the first wave of the movement seems to cool down and maybe even has lost its momentum, I think it's time for some strategical thinking about where to go and to start a discussion on how to achieve this.

Mumia Abu-Jamal death sentence dropped: Marc Lamont Hill discusses case

RECYCLE WHITE CULTURE

One way that whites like Sarrazin AND Żmijewski can achieve the kind of equality that they falsely claim to have in Germany and in Europe today is to recycle their own selves by burning their passports, becoming stateless and applying for asylum themselves. We are not talking about a “symbolic” action defining nothing but mutual relationships of Nazi and “high culture” idealisms, but about the real situation where those Nazi-and-culture mutilators will face the results of their ideology. We invite them to do so.

What we see now is not what will remain – civil disobedience against Nazis and hunters of extremists.

This is a translation of a german article published on de.indymedia.org.

Our opponents say: Blocking is criminally, blockades are harming the rule of law, the successful protesting against Europe’s biggest Nazi march causes damages to democracy. But we say: Blocking is our right, it is an act of civil obedience against a mistaken policy of the free state of Saxony to neo-Nazis. – It seems that all these positions are in absolute opposition to each other. But which side is right? The confrontation is centered on the following issue: Which status does civil obedience have in a democracy? – Combine Progress (Kombinat Fortschritt) with some thoughts concerning this topic.

For good measure and insurance, she also appointed her former legal counsel, Associate Justice Renato Corona, as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

Argument by Ray Jackson against a polemic in “The Australian” newspaper, “The grim legacy of compassion”

the paean to assimilation by patrick mccauley is most surely seen only through his eyes that are wrapped up in the white-blindfold-view of history whereby it becomes confused, contorted and seriously contentious. i have no idea who mccauley is even though seeking information on google  but whoever he be he must be answered by argument against his polemic. hopefully i will go some way to doing that.

Greetings my friends, relatives, relations, supporters



I wrote a statement the other day sitting here in my cell and I know that no one really cares to read something that is 6 pages long. So this is my effort to shorten it a little bit.

The first subject I want to touch on is being in prison for 36 years is hell.

When I was in college between 2003 and 2006 here in my coutry, America, I was harassed by fellow students and professors while attending a degree program I was majoring in. The harassment was predicated upon my race and a student protest I was involved in at another school roughly thirteen years prior. I was subtly harassed through a constant litany of insinuation, being subtly ostracized within the program and being purposefully not given all the information necessary to complete assignments fully etc. Other times it was much more blatant.
