South Africa: Community Activist killed by police at demonstraion against Water Privatisation

10-05-2008 22:35 | Social Struggles | World

This is a translation/repost of an article found on Imc Germany, which reports that the community activist, Jan Matshobe, has been arrested by police on Tuesday, 29th of April, during a demonstration against water privatisation in Sebokeng, a township ca. 60km south of Johannesburg.

First the police released the activist, but he got then rearrested in the evening. Thursday monring he was found dead in a field.

Patra Sindane, Coalition against Water Privatisation said, that as long as an investigation would not prove the contrary, the police is responsible for the death of the comrade. The police has no scruples in using live ammunition against the protests either. A death caused by the police in prison only means a further logical step of the same tactics used by the police already against the protests in Sebokeng.

organised crime in the Netherlands. Bureau jeugdzorg the Dutch company that takes and holds children makes big monies by ordering the parents to pay for the 24/7 care in an institution. The children are not allowed to speak to their families ( unless the parents pay extra) and this is to keep them from passing information and to alienate them from their families so they can use this in courts.

General Petraeus: Zionism’s Military Poodle: From Surge to Purge to Dirge

08-05-2008 17:19 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

The advance of Petraeus is a victory of the Zionist Power Configuration in its quest for American military leaders willing to pursue Israel’s agenda of sanctions and war against Iran. That is why the ZPC was a factor in the ousting of Admiral William Fallon, and why the main propaganda bulletin (the Daily Alert) of the Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations worked for and hailed his promotion to military overseer of the Middle East wars.

Israel, Syria, and Lebanon Prepare the "Home Fronts"

08-05-2008 16:05 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

The Levant could be the starting point of a major international conflict
with global ramifications and which could quickly spin out of control. Such
a conflict could even involve the use of Israeli or American nuclear weapons
against Iran and Syria. Syria has additionally declared that it is preparing
for an inevitable war with Israel despite the fact that it believes that the
chances of a war in 2008 are slim.

Human Rights Crime in Gaza

07-05-2008 20:21 | Anti-racism | World

As these articles prove, the world knows precisely what is going on in Gaza.

By any name you call it, Gaza is a territory under Israeli siege, Collective Punishment which is causing incredible hardship, and death, for Gazan Palestinians.

Every country in the world should immediately, stop any and all aid to Israel until this siege stops.

As Jewish groups increasingly speak out against Israel and Zionist Extremism, the pressure to reverse the pressure applied by the 'Israel Lobby', which falsely claims to speak for the greater Jewish community, increases, as does the possibility of international action on Israeli Apartheid.
