Bulgaria: Violence against the protesters or against the protest?
http://balkans.puscii.nl/?q=content/bulgaria-violence-against-protesters-or-against-protest
On 14th January 2009 a protest in front of the Parliament took place. A protest for a better state, nothing more. Weeks before the protest there were so many rumors, that the radical left groups like the Federation of the Anarchists in Bulgaria (FAB), AnarchoResistance collective and also the students-pupils' movement “Priziv” were forced to distinguish from this event. As it turned out – absolutely reasonably.
The planed as a “nationwide peoples' protest” was practically occupied form a small group well known neo-nazi football hooligans, who more than an hour were trowing snow balls, self-made bombs, smoke bombs, were destroying the metal fences in from of the Parliament, beating with cops, journalists and event other protesters. Despite the calls for calmness from the org
anizers of the event this small group did not stop and the police did not react at all. After that because of orders from “above” the police “cleand” the square, beating up brutally everyone (including the normal protesters), instead of isolating the neo-nazi hooligans.
So far there are 154 arestees, some of the carrying knuckle-dusters, sticks, helmets and even stickers with swastikas; some others – regular students, beaten by the one repressive face of the state (the other we saw earlier: the paid neo-nazi football hools), who were at the wrong place in the wrong time.
The scenario is obvious. The goal of the oligarchic puppet-masters is to vitiate the protesters and to make the protest demos a privilege only for the paid unions and “opposition party” leaders. And against the unpaid normal people the state will use the arguments for the “violence during the protests”. Obvious for this plan are the upcoming changes in the law for protests and demonstrations, which will reduce our liberties for protesting.
The picture says "One and the same"

apples from the underground

The murder of Alexis Grigoropoulos last December initiated one of the more massive uprisings in Greece, from the era of dictatorship until now. The murder of the 15-year-old boy by the agents of violence and oppression from the state ignited a general insurrection of the greek youth, as well as an international solidarity movement. The solidarity movement was directed not only towards the actual incident of the murder, but also caused a number of actions and criticism against the innumerable capitalistic barbarities, financial crisis and the right wing government.
We call for a public info night including discussion about the Greek insurrection and the upcoming revolts in Europe as well as presenting/discussing the history of the Greek radical movements. According also with the current situation into the Greek youth during the ''new capitalist fact'' of the financial crisis , violent precarization and other related issues to that popular uprising.
We would like also to initiate a discussion about some questions and problems that this movement tried to make visible!
* "What does it means in the age of post fordist capitalist western or western ''inspired'' metropolis to win?"
* "Which popular demands are again in the surface of the movement?"
* "How horisontality can function successfully in the anticapitalist movements of the modern world?"
* "How can practical autonomy and local alternatives to global capitalism and self organization remain relevant?"
* "Which new forms of organization and networking are necessary to coordinate successfully the international resistance against capitalism in our daily lives?"
* and YES! for establishing again "new Seattles", "new greek revolts", "new temporary autonomous zones", "new grassroot movements and victories?"
These are only some questions related to the Greek insurrection but we hope to discuss more. Our aim is to avoid the gap between presenters and consumers. You are definitely welcome to add your questions and statements to this debate...
