by Ron RidenourA great victory, an unexpected one for several of the affected and observers, was delivered today by Copenhagen's City Court for those who fight for their liberation and sovereignty and for those who act in solidarity.One juridical judge and two lay judges found the seven accused Danish solidarity activists, "Fighter and Lovers", innocent of the Justice Ministry's charge that they had materially supported "terror groups" FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) and PFLP (Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine).Since FARC and PFLP are not terrorist organizations, concluded the judges, neither are the seven activists guilty of any crime.The seven had produced and sold t-shirts with FARC and PFLP emblems in an effort to raise a debate about Denmark's terror law, … [read more]

Italian delegation: Let us help Gaza to resist!Blessed are you who are poor,for the kingdom of God is yours.Blessed are you who are now hungry,for you will be satisfied.Blessed are you who are now weeping,for you will laugh.from the Gospel of Luke1974 years ago, Jesus of Nazareth was crucified for having promised the oppressed hope in salvation and justice. 1974 years later, in the same places, another martyrdom is taking place, and this time it is the whole Palestinian people which is undergoing it.The Gaza Strip is the symbol of this tragedy.During the last year, the embargo decreed by the Israeli authorities has turned Gaza into a concentration camp: one and a half million people survive with great difficulty. There is no other way of putting it: we are facing a humanitarian … [read more]

Interview with Dr. Djimadoum LEY-NGARDIGAL, secretary-general of the"Chad Action for Unity and Socialism" (Actus), one of the numerous opposition forcesQ: What do you think of the European military mission?Ley: Nearly the entire opposition, which is composed of very heterogeneous forces, oppose the deployment of the EUFOR troops. The uninterrupted presence of French troops from the beginning of the colonial times until today - under the guise of the defence of the territorial integrity of an "independent" state - leave a bitter flavour. Several popular revolts against the different dictatorships imposed on us by France have been drowned in blood under direct involvement of French troops. Actually they are nothing less than occupation troops. The EUROR [of which the main contingent is … [read more]

In the name of Salwa Judum in Bastar region of Chhathisgarh, India, not only have hundreds been arrested, tortured, murdered, gang-raped, but their entire economic lifelines have been smashed by the state.

Having taken office after his provocative stride across the Aqsa esplanade, Sharon stopped the withdrawal of the army and further increased the pace of settlement construction - or, to be more precise, racially segregated cities which inhabitants are armed to the teeth and operate as auxiliary militias of the Tsahal. As if this would not suffice, Sharon started the construction of the "security wall" resulting in the military annexation of a further 7% of the Palestinian land thus violating again the US resolutions. Trying to crush the second Intifada, Israel pushed aside the Palestinian Authority (PA) and attacked the Occupied Territories by fire and sword. Thousands of Palestinians were killed or wounded, tens of thousands arrested and kept in prison without trial. Thousands of … [read more]

A Statement by the Free Palestine Alliance, USAWhile the Free Palestine Alliance (FPA) condemns in the strongest possible terms the wholesale of Palestine at the upcoming Annapolis Conference; we recognize well that condemnation alone is no longer of any real value. The time is now for a clear alternative to emerge in place of this hopelessly corrupt leadership. Annapolis, like Camp David, Madrid and Oslo before, is the natural outcome to the path of surrender that Abbas and others have taken. Although this upcoming conference itself may not be a terminal one, it is nonetheless a stepping stone to the gallows, if we allow it, where Palestine is intended for execution by the United States and Israel in full collaboration with their Arab and Palestinian functionary minions. We have warned … [read more]

Di che si tratta? Il 18 novembre le forze di sicurezza leali al Presidente Abu Mazen hanno posto sotto assedio il campo profughi di Ein Beit El-Ma, nei pressi di Nablus. Per fare che? Per snidare e arrestare numerosi militanti del FPLP in quanto rappresenterebbero "...un pericolo per la pace". Pubblichiamo qui sotto una nota che denuncia come questa operazione repressiva sia stata dettata direttamente da israeliani e americani. La mossa di … [read more]

The Israeli prison authorities punished him for his political position against the planned Anapolis Conference, and sent him to the remote Nafha prison, where physical conditions are harsh and where it will be very hard for his family or lawyers to meet him.In spite of this suffering, Ahmad Sa'adat didn't hesitate to size on the … [read more]

by Irene ClausenThe so called war on terror after September 11, 2001, resulted in 'anti terror legislations' in most Western capitalist countries and meant serious attacks on civil and political rights and the criminalization of international solidarity work. Some of the strongest anti-imperialist movements in the world were put on the US and EU terror lists, for instance the FARC in Colombia, the CPP in the Philippines, the PKK and DHKP-C in Turkey, and PFLP in Palestina.Provoked by the 'anti-terror legislation', a campaign was started in Denmark in 2004, named "Oproer" (Rebellion). Is has about 700 individual members. Its aim was and is "to challenge the anti-terror law" and create debate on and opposition against the consequences of the "anti terror legislation" and to claim the right … [read more]
