Swiss Activists start Nuclear War

Uncle Christ + the revolting squids | 31.03.2011 17:00 | Ecology | Social Struggles | Terror War

There are reports coming out of Switzerland that a parcel bomb exploded today.

The parcel was posted to the offices of Swissnuclear in Olten, who operate as a lobby group for the Nuclear Industry in Switzerland. 2 office girls we reported to have received superficial wounds and taken to hospital.

There is no word yet on who is behind the attack. There are fears though that this could escalate globally as there is known to be much disgust at the actions of the Industry, with the recent events of Fukushima highlighting the inabilities of the scientists and engineers to control the substances they use.

No doubt there will be a heightened state of alert in the UK as the anti-nuclear movement picks up pace and the recent rise in radical expressive activism on the streets around the country.

Hopefully the activists/terrorists who sent the bomb will be sent down for a long, long time.

"Hopefully the activists/terrorists who sent the bomb will be sent down for a long, long time."

Probably turn out to be undesirables from the nuclear industry trying to incriminate anti-nuclear campaigners by bombing their own offices. Kind of makes sense given the financial losses they are now facing. Got to try and undermine the activist's anyway they can to prevent any further damage to their precious industry.

It really is astonishing that when its the activists who are accused of this sort of violence, hearsay is all it takes to attempt a conviction, but if its the industry itself that's doing it, a truly mind boggling and impossible standard of forensic proof is suddenly required!

Met an awful lot of campaigners in my time and never came across any single person that I thought would resort to this kind of sickening violence to achieve their aims. Have also met a lot of business types from the companies being campaigned against and have never met a single one of them I didn't routinely assume would easily resort to violence to achieve their aims.

Have also met a huge number of people not connected to either group, who consider this behavioural aspect of corporations, to be a routine and obvious statement of fact.

When multi-million dollar industries are up against the wall, and when its short, medium and long term financial interests are in jeopardy, it will do what it considers necessary to survive. That includes reckless criminality!

False flag?

What better time for state or corporate black ops agents to do something to justify repression against anti-nuclear activists then straight after a nuclear disaster, just as the nuclear industry's share values are plummeting and governments around the world are reviewing their new build plans?

RWE mounting legal challenge to German decision to close down NP stations for 3 months.

"According to RWE's legal interpretation, the government has no grounds to its legal basis to take measures according to paragraph 19 of nuclear law," RWE said in a statement.

They also report

'The EU has also reached agreement on "stress tests" of all European nuclear facilities.'

Global day of action required!
