ANZAC Day Statement from Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group

WAR IS HELL. Galllipoli, 1915. On 25 April, 1915, Australian, British and other imperialist troops landed on a Turkish beach. It was the beginning of a horrendous waste of human life in the Gallipoli campaign, which was itself a minor part of the larger waste of human life during World War I. Both sides in this war were reactionary imperialist alliances, fighting to re-divide the world in the struggle for colonies, resources and markets.

Warrup activists hit with record fines

Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Tue, 24/04/2012 - 12:55pm

Forest Rescue Australia (FRA) Warrup activists have been hit with record fines by the Courts said FRA spokesman, Simon Peterffy.

"It appears to have got 'political' and where activism is concerned we are being hit with the biggest fines to date in WA history. It is disappointing because we are not doing anything wrong, only fighting to save the lives of our numbats, to stop unnecessary logging, and to protect the legacies of our children that everyone should best understand," said Mr Peterffy.

Warrup forest logging halted as FRA protestor, like spiderman, webs between two trees

Submitted by Gerry Georgatos on Mon, 23/04/2012 - 2:57pm

A Forest Rescue Australia (FRA) activist halted logging in Warrup after he constructed a "spider's web" between two trees that blocked an access way for logging vehicles into Warrup coupe 06.

Sean Gransch built a makeshift "spider's web" between the two trees in the early morning hours of Tuesday April 23. At 4am in the morning he climbed the platform in the middle of the "web" and stayed there for the day. The platform dangled about 15 metres above the access way.
