Solidarity demo with Ungdomshuset

On Wednesday, 20th of september, a short solidarity demo was held for Ungdomshuset, a 24 year old social centre in copenhagen which was secretly sold by the government to a right wing christian sect called faderhuset... meeting at the grafton street entrance to stephens green proceeded to the danish embassy which is very close by...

short message from the people defending the building at the moment:

The court has spoken and the verdict turned out in favor of Faderhuset. This means that they will try to shut down Ungdomshuset and establish their rightwing Christian fundamentalist group in OUR house. We do not acknowledge their so-called justice system! There will never be anything but Ungdomshuset in that house and therefore we will do anything in our power to defend it!
On the 23rd + 24th we hit the streets to show them that we are many, that we are powerful and that we will NOT be ignored!
It is no longer a matter of IF we are going to fight for the house, but rather WHEN! But WE decide when it's time to fight - therefore the demonstrations will be non-confrontative.

Copenhagen is not the only city under attack! Houses all over Europe are currently being evicted or “normalized”!

A brief account of the Saturday the 23rd March :

On the 23rd of September a march of over 3000 people took place in Copenhagen leaving from outisde Ungdomshuset and marching through the streets and passed city hall where the crowd stoped to stick their fingers up at the beaurcrats who sold the social centre . The march was filled with kids , bikes , dogs , old people , punks and anarchists just to name a few showing the diversity of people who support this social centre . There shall be a video to follow showing this event .

A chant of "Evict our house and start a war" was heard ....

New Revolt Documentary "The Political Economy of Genocide"

One Race the Human Race

Part I: The Political Economy of Genocide

Documentary (Duration 42 mins)

This short film by no means tries to give a what, when, where, who and how analysis of the conflict taking place in the Lebanon, Palestine and Israeli (Iraq). It is a collection of mostly images and video taken off various Indymedia sites around the world and merged together to give an incomplete and brief snap shot montage sequence of the consequences of state violence and apathy to the suffering of human beings for narrow selfish political reasons.

Dedicated to IMC journalists in Lebanon, Palestine and Israel.

Transcripts of some of the narration

“All authority of any kind, especially in the field of thought and understanding, is the most destructive of things. Leaders destroy their followers, followers destroy their leaders. You have to be your own teacher and your own disciple. You have to question everything that man has accepted as valuable, as necessary.”

“For centuries we have been conditioned by nationality, cast, class, tradition, religion, language, education, literature, art, custom, convention, propaganda of all kinds, economic pressure, our experiences- every influence you can think of – and therefore, our responses to every problem are conditioned.”

“When you call yourself an Indian or Muslim or a Christian or European, or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? Because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you are separating yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence. So a man or woman who is seeking to understand violence does not belong to any political party or partial system: he is concerned with the understanding of mankind.”

“Words are cheap when used to describe the ongoing slaughter and destruction in Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine and at the hands of the US and the US-funded Israeli army. No matter how eloquent or expressive, words stand helpless and ring hollow when confronted with the distressing human suffering inflicted on Iraqi, Lebanese and Palestinian civilians by war machines and the utter apathy, even indifference, of world powers towards them.”

“The Israeli side has attempted to market this campaign of death and destruction in Lebanon and Palestine as "self-defense" intended to "defend peace," in the words of Shimon Peres, who in 1996 gave the orders to bomb a UNIFIL post in Qana, South Lebanon, where hundreds of civilians had sought refuge. That attack burned 106 Lebanese civilians to death, also in the name of Israeli "self-defense." Israeli officials have also allowed themselves the audacity of speaking on behalf of the Lebanese and Palestinian peoples they are assaulting. In the UN, the Israeli representative Ambassador Dan Gillerman was able to lecture the Security Council with a straight face about the right of the Palestinian and Lebanese peoples to live in peace and prosperity”

“To top off this shameless Israeli public diplomacy campaign, Ms. Tzipi Livni, the Israeli Foreign Minister, states repeatedly, without the slightest embarrassment, that her country's assault on Lebanon is meant to "help" the Lebanese government exercise its sovereignty and implement Security Council resolution 1559! Unfortunately, she has yet to be asked how the bombing of Lebanese bridges and roads, army barracks, and communications antennas is meant to help the government nor how infringing upon the sovereignty of Lebanon is meant to solidify that country's sovereignty. More importantly, this shocking remark did not invite a response that would remind the Israeli official that her country infringed upon Lebanon's sovereignty through land, air, and sea over 11,000 times in the past six years.”

”The crowning jewel of this crisis, with its twisted logic and perverse objectives, is the statement of the US Secretary of State, calling the current carnage "the birth pangs of a new Middle East." These "pangs" of a foreign-grown and forcibly implanted pregnancy are more like deafening "bangs" that shatter the homes, hopes, and future of Lebanese and Palestinian children. They are the blows Ms. Rice is allowing to continue to burn, maim and kill civilians in Lebanon and Palestine. Ms. Rice's "new" Middle East is being molded by the charred remains of children and their hopes for a dignified life in Palestine and Lebanon.”

The Edukators – Your Days of Plenty are Numbered

Synopsis

Jule is a waitress that can't make ends meet. She moves in with her boyfriend Peter and his friend Jan, two young men united by their passion to change the world. But Jule has a secret: A past auto accident has burdened her with lifetime payments to successful businessman, Hardenberg. Peter and Jan also have a secret: They are the notorious "Edukators," mysterious perpetrators who break into expensive homes of the local yacht club members as an act of political rebellion. They wreak havoc and leave notes that read, "Your days of plenty are numbered."

While Peter is away on holiday, secrets between Jan and Jules are disclosed and feelings between them intensify. They impulsively break into the home of the businessman to whom Jules is indebted. But their growing passion has made them careless and when they're forced to return to the villa the following night to retrieve a forgotten cell phone, Hardenberg surprises them.

They have no choice but to call Peter for help, even if it means his finding out about their betrayal.

The trio makes a rash decision and their futures (as well as Hardenberg's) are quaked. Ideals are tested as generations collide, passions rage, and loyalties shatter.
