On line petition for solidarity with Villa Amalias squat in Athens/Greece

Solidarity with Villa Amalias Squat – Let us Resist the Social Cannibalism

All of us signing this declaration of solidarity with Villa Amalias Squat are aware of the fierce attack unleashed by the Greek state on free spaces and every other expression of social/political resistance.

Solidarity with Squat raids in Athens from Brisbane

Photographs of 2 banners placed at the Brisbane Anarchist Summer School, held from 12-13 January 2013. As far away as Australia we look to the occupied social spaces such as Villa Amalias, Skaramagka, and the ASOEE steki in Greece as a source of inspiration in our struggle against the existent. With solidarity as our weapon we actively resist the isolation this society attempts to impose on us. You are not alone.

Are the Old Ones taking the land back?

Once Aboriginal people were no longer able to tend their country, it became overgrown and vulnerable to the hugely damaging bushfires we now experience. And what we think of as virgin bush in a national park is nothing of the kind.

That's the core of a book by historian, Professor Bill Gammage, who examined written and visual records of the Australian landscape for more than a decade.

A relevant graphic

Here's a graphic created by SchNEWS (www.schnews.org.uk) in the UK a number of years ago, incase you haven't seen it. It's copyleft I believe so its reusable.

As an outsider looking on from rainy England*, and hoping the fires stop soon with minimal further loss, I just wonder how the climate change deniers will try to stop the public making the connection between this and climate change? There's a chance that enough idiots will vote Tony Abbott in next time, who appears to be an old-school climate change denier from another era.

Reduce mankind to a fearful, trembling species

Most Indymedia groups refuse to publish any of my reports and many now *hide some of my posts. Why is the truth so feared by media authorities? Perhaps my most **recent report referenced in the Indymedia groups shown below with two asterisks ( and reposted below in this post) proves my point: that the NWO under the direction of fbi/cia/mossad/MI6, Sûreté , etc. is hell bent on reducing mankind to an ignorant, fearful, & trembling species as may be needed to control earth and space.

Fire the U.S. Congress for treason: How many blatant favors for the AIPAC Israel lobby?

By Ron Russell

How many times will U.S. elected Representatives of the U.S. House and Senate have to kiss Israel’s ass, and in how many ways, before “our” country will build a true national security team—that is one actually focused on U.S. security and not primarily on Israel’s?

“Aboriginal embassy event on 26th is not ours”

Coonamble, central-western NSW, 11 January 2013 - - Aboriginal sovereignty activist, Michael Ghillar Anderson, makes clear that an event being organised by the National Congress of Australia’s First Peoples (NCAFP ) for 26 January at the Aboriginal Tent Embassy in Canberra, is NOT an Aboriginal Embassy initiative.

The last survivor of the four men who set up the embassy in 1972 and spokesperson for the Sovereign Union of First Nations, emphasises that the NCAFP is a government funded organisation that has not gained the majority support of grassroots Aboriginal people.
