FASCIST police dictatorship in Greece NOW!

09-12-2009 06:06 | Indymedia Server Seizure | Repression | Manchester | World

This message of urgency has also been sent to indymedia athens, but it seems that the site may have been hijacked by the greek police and it is obviously censored. The message is in Greek and I urge greek persons or persons who know greek to translate it into English first, so it can be translated into other languages too. FOR A WORLDWIDE MOVEMENT OF SOLIDARITY THAT WILL SMASH THE NEW GREEK JUNTA.

08-12-2009 18:48 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | World

Over the past ten years citizens of the United States and other Western nations, and unfortunately most of the world, have become accustomed to Washington and its military allies in Europe and those appointed as armed outposts on the periphery of the "Euro-Atlantic community" engaging in armed aggression around the world.

The bombing and the ground combat operations in Afghanistan continue since October 2001 and both will be intensified to record levels in short order. The combined U.S. and NATO forces in the country would represent a staggering number, in excess of 150,000 soldiers.
