29-04-2004 07:26

The young American Marine is exultant. “It’s a sniper’s dream,’ he tells a Los Angeles Times reporter on the outskirts of Fallujah. “You can go anywhere, and there so many ways to fire at the enemy without him knowing where you are.”

“Sometimes a guy will go down, and I’ll let him scream a bit to destroy the morale of his buddies. Then I’ll use a second shot.”

Anarchist Ball

29-04-2004 00:39

There is an idea floating around Cambridge air to have an alternative
May Ball during may week...perhaps to be held on one of the commons, as a
celebration without the £190, security guards and oysters, but with a
lot of fun people and a DIY spirit.

The Anarchist Ball

If you think you might like to help organise it (music, food, clowns,
artists, activists needed) please email wrench @ tao.ca - there is a
meeting this Tuesday, May 4th, 8 pm, at Clowns Cafe.

Iraq Procurement Protest 27 April 2004

28-04-2004 23:30

As Mayday is approaching, I am re-posting this piece from indymedia Ireland in memory of Canadian activist Tooker Gomberg who took his own life recently and in the hope that the activists among you will take note of his message. Tooker was an amazing activist - dedicated, creative, dynamic and effective. Sadly, he gave too much.
