Nazis in Minneapolis!

Unbelievable, Nazis in Minneapolis! Minneapolis? The home of Teamsters local 574 and the Baldies? The National Socialist Movement, who seem to be everywhere these days, are threatening to demonstrate against an anti-racist event at a local YWCA in the city. The NSM are a straight-up Nazi outfit and increasingly active and national. Under no circumstance should they be permitted by to organize in Minneapolis or anywhere else.

Minneapolis has long been a center of anti-fascist and ant-racist organizing and there hasn’t been any open fascist presence in the city in many years. The NSM know this history better than anyone and their threat must be taken seriously. For years at anti-fascist demos Anti-Racist-Action had organized the arrival of the crew from Minneapolis doubled whatever forces were already there. Well before ARA Minneapolis was leading the way on politicizing the apolitical, street fighting crews that had come together around the influx of fascists into the scene. Nazis in Minneapolis? This is a threat to every anti-racist.

If you are in that area get out there and join this demo:

Press Release: This Saturday, October 3rd, 2009, the neo-nazi National Socialist Movement (NSM) has threatened to demonstrate against an anti-racist workshop being held at the YWCA on East Lake Street in Minneapolis. The NSM has declared the anti-racist organizers “traitors” to white supremacy.

This provocation also has a wider goal: The NSM has been holding racist anti-immigrant rallies in southern Minnesota, and now they are seeking to establish a presence inside the City of Minneapolis. For years Minneapolis has been a virtual “no-go” area for organized racist activity, due to the efforts of young anti-racist organizers.

In the wake of the racist attacks in Brooklyn Park last week, the nazis’ threat cannot be ignored. They plan to bring their racist, homophobic, anti-immigrant, anti-Semitic message of division and hate right into the heart of the city. They must not go unopposed!

10.03.2009 Retribution Against Daily Life; Bank Attacked in Chicago

...seven windows were broken at Chicago Community Bank on the near south side. One for each of those arrested, and one more for the bid.

On Tuesday night, the state arrested six individuals and charged them with felonies in connection to anti-Olympic hooliganism. This persecution is completely unacceptable.

To extend revolutionary solidarity, seven windows were broken at Chicago Community Bank on the near south side. One for each of those arrested, and one more for the bid. In the joyful wake of this criminal-becoming, three windows were done away with on an unmarked police cruiser. This was done because, well-- You know.

While this was done in the dead of night this past evening, in the future there will be opportunities for more inclusive forms of violence. Hopefully this gesture resonates with others who refuse containment and the misery of capitalist hell.

A bomb exploded this afternoon just before 14.00 outside the BCI bank by the Hotel Marriott, in
Kennedy Avenue in the comune of Las Condes, in Santiago del Cile.
A hotel guard was wounded and there was damage to the bank windows from the explosion.
The guard had light injuries and was taken to

The hotel employees had managed to inform the police but the bomb disposal unit were unable to disactivate the device.
The public attorney investigating a number of explosive attacks in the area went to the scene to begin investigations.

“Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire” claim last night’s bomb attack; police-fabricated charges collapse

Last night (Friday October 2) at about 8.15pm, a low-intensity bomb went off only a few meters away from the podium where PM Karamanlis was delivering his last speech, signalling the end of the pre-election period (elections are on Sunday the 4th).

A lengthy communiqué published on Athens IMC claims responsibility for the attack by the group “Conspiracy of the Cells of Fire”. It was the members of this group that were allegedly arrested on September 24 (see these posts for more details of the case). The writers of today’s communiqué, however, deny the police claims, they describe the placing of yesterday’s bomb in detail and send their revolutionary greetings to Alfredo Bonnano and his 46-year old Greek comrade, Christos Stratigopoulos, both arrested and charged with a bank robbery in the northern city of Trikala on Thursday.
