A few days ago, the Turkish communist refugee Sami Solmaz was arrested by the harborist
and imprisoned unjustly in the prisons of St. Stephen in Patras, although he has been a
legitimate citizen of France for years. Once again, the judiciary and the state are
persecuting and imprisoning militants by attempting to exterminate them and sending the
message of exemplary punishment to anyone who raises the head, struggles, resists and
sues. ---- Sami Solmaz faces the risk of extradition to Turkey's fascist state of Erdogan.
It is well known the treatment of dissidents in Turkey, let alone the left-wing, the
anarchists and the Communists. Unauthorized arrests and imprisonment, wood and torture,
imprisonment for an indefinite period and without any right, special cells, special
prisons, special indictments are the brutal reality faced by those who fighters fall into
the hands of the Turkish state. Particularly after the failed coup, Erdogan unleashed
another suppressive orgy against anyone who struggles by establishing an iron grid of
repression and surveillance and imposing his dictatorship.
In order to ensure that the regime is fully enforced and that the interests of the
predominant economic and political elites are seamlessly served, all means can be used in
even more aggravated form and even more intensive. Thus, the state enforcement goes
through the complete annihilation of those who fight against it, through exemplary
punishment resisting or have any reason to do so, through the brutal and overt repression
of those who refuse to accept the end of their life, through state revivalism and the
material-moral extermination of those who have been in the hands of the state for their
action.
Within this repressive framework is also the persecution of communist SamiSolmaz, who has
been repeatedly persecuted by the Turkish state for his political beliefs and for his
participation in the struggle. Likewise, thousands of others like him have been
persecuted, many of whom chose the path of civil protection to escape imprisonment and
torture. Sami Solmaz is also prosecuted in the German state along with 9 other fighters
from ATIK (Confederation of Turkish Workers in Europe). The ATIC trial is the culmination
of a judicial-police operation that began on 15 April 2015 in France, Switzerland, Greece
and Germany on the orders of the Federal German judicial authorities.
It is obvious that the Greek and Turkish states have no problem cooperating and dealing
together with "terrorists", those who struggle to overthrow the dictatorship of the state
and capital. Besides, there are countless examples of Turkish and Kurdish fighters who
have been arrested and imprisoned in Greece just for their ideas and political action in
Turkey.
For our part, we stand on the side of the fighter Sami Solmaz, as in any other fighter
striven for his ideas and for his political action. The struggle for the release of Sami
Solmaz and his non-extradition to Turkey is indissolubly linked to the struggles that are
being taken to break the regime of political prisoners. It is inextricably linked to the
struggle against judicial arbitrariness and repression. With the daily struggle to defend
the vision of a society of freedom-equality-justice and the overthrow of state-capitalist
barbarism.

What path is there to go so that anyone can emancipate themselves through self-hosting ?
Part of the problem does not reside precisely in the sometimes individualistic logic of
self-hosting, which can lead to overwork and security problems ? ---- In the previous
article (see AL of May 2019), we saw that it is technically possible to self-host to
emancipate proprietary and commercial services type Gafam. Technically, it is now possible
not to rely on GMail for its emails, not to depend on Facebook for its social network, not
to depend on Youtube for its videos, etc. In other words, it is now possible to install
and put into operation at home its own server. ---- And the "security" in all this ----
However, despite this real possibility, it is easy to see that the promised emancipation
is not there. Self-hosting remains a niche practice, not widespread. And for good reason:
once the server installed, several questions «security"Must-haves arise very quickly. The
system must operate flawlessly during the intended usage ranges and ensure access to
installed services and resources with the expected response time. The system must also be
honest, that is, the data must be the expected ones, and must not be tampered with
accidentally, unlawfully or maliciously. Clearly, the data must be accurate and complete.
Finally, and this is essential, it must be confidential: only authorized persons can have
access to the information intended for them. Any unwanted access must be prevented. To
these security questions, we can add the need for regular backups of the system: any
electronic equipment (hard disk, memory card, etc.) will fail sooner or later, and often
without warning sign. In addition, it is important to keep the system up-to-date, as long
as the service is active, to ensure a good level of security and avoid the risk of
hacking. If the hosted data is sensitive, it can be interesting, even essential to encrypt
the storage used by the system.
We will summarize these different tasks as "system maintenance". This time consuming part
requires some technical knowledge and is still difficult today for a novice. It can then
be tempting to consider a "multi-homestay" collective, shared, where it would be enough
that only one person has the expertise for all to enjoy. For example, Alternative
Libertaire could consider self-hosting, in order to maintain control over its website and
email addresses. If so, we have already asked the question very seriously ... but the step
has not been taken.
A collective accommodation
In the case of accommodation for strictly personal use, the scope of the risks and
liability is limited: if I maintain my system, I am alone to suffer the consequences. When
housing becomes collective, many people use it, the risks, responsibilities and
maintenance associated with it become significant and time-consuming, probably too much to
rely on one person, expert or not. Self-hosting for collective use, so necessarily more
intensive than for individual use, also shows its limitations when we think of the low
speed offered by most Internet Service Providers (ISPs). In addition, when the server is
in the home of a natural person, it is difficult to pool the maintenance. Added to this is
the risk of service interruption in case of disability (vacation, illness, accident) of
the person responsible for maintenance. Finally, the worst that can happen is the seizure
of computer equipment following a legal concern (search) that would be subject to the
owner of the premises where the server is stored, a user, a user or the entire collective
who uses the service. The seizure could lead to the exploitation of sensitive data if they
are not sufficiently secure. Exploitation of data that could also take place in case of
simple burglary, targeted or not. Obviously, searches and burglaries are risks that a
revolutionary and antifascist organization such as Libertarian Alternative must take into
account.
A federalized solution: Kittens
When hosting benefits a community, it becomes necessary for the maintenance of the system
to be collectivized. The prerequisite is obviously that the system must be physically in a
place accessible by several people, and therefore by nature less secure than a vault of
which I would be the only one to have the key. It is also necessary to take care of the
training of the members of the collectivity, so that the maintenance mandate (s) can
(turn) and no dependence to the good will of a single specialist individual is put in place .
Given the limitations mentioned, a collective housing should turn to federalized
solutions, where already experts in computer systems and where the reflections mentioned
above have already been conducted. The good news is that these hosts already exist! We can
notably mention the Framasoft kittens: "Kittens is the Collective of Alternative,
Transparent, Open, Neutral and Solidarity Hosts. It brings together organizations wishing
to avoid the collection and centralization of personal data within digital silos of the
type proposed by the Gafam (Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft)."
So when will a libertarian communist kitten, with a training policy to fight against
specialization and a thorough reflection on the physical security of data? Wait, not too
fast, give us time to prepare that ...

Is prison essential for life in society ? Can we imagine alternatives to the prison system
and more generally to punitive justice ? See you on Wednesday 19 June at 19:30 at
Kaf'Conç, 112 rue de Tolbiac, Paris 13 th (metro Olympiades or Place-d'Italie). ---- What
is the prison for today ? To protect "good citizens" from the "deviant behaviors" of some
people that should be removed from the rest of society for safety reasons ? To educate
those who have had to understand that what has been done is "bad" ? To make them suffer,
so that "the price of their deeds " bepaid? To scare free citizens who might be tempted to
commit a crime? Or is it a tool of social control that allows to enclose certain
populations (often racialized and belonging to the lowest social classes) in an endless
loop between prison and petty crime (theft, deal) to keep them under control? permanence ?
Is prison essential for life in society ? Can we imagine alternatives to the prison system
and more generally to punitive justice ? How to manage the conflicts and the non-respect
of the rules established in a society of libertarian inspiration ? What concrete examples
in Chiapas or Rojava for example ?
We invite you to discuss all these issues with us, using extracts from:
Is the prison obsolete ? Angela Davis (editions the Devil Vauvert) ;
The Zonzon, Alain Guyard (editions Dillettante) ;
The Abolition of the prison, by Jacques Lesage of The Hague (Libertalia editions) ;
old issues of the libertarian Alternative monthly .
This will be the June cocktail party of the local collective Grand Paris Sud of
Alternative Libertaire, where we will test the format "apero-debate-surveying". Surveying
is a popular education technique that consists in collectively reading texts by
distributing extracts to be read separately, and then restoring them to others.
See you on Wednesday 19 June at 19:30 at Kaf'Conç, 112 rue de Tolbiac, Metro Olympiades or
Place d'Italie.

Social revolution is often used only as a buzzword, but many do not realize how they are
going and where they should lead. That's exactly what we want to deal with. What is the
living together that we want to achieve? How did we deprive the power structures state,
capitalism and patriarchy? In what ways can we not only create small projects, but
self-organization on a larger scale? How do we get from the isolated to the whole? We
would like to be inspired by historical & current revolutions, but above all our own ideas
& ideas. ---- The course is a block course: We ask for pre-registrations. Write us if you
need accommodation. ---- Date: 27.07.-28.07.2019 all day ---- Preparation meeting:

The Federation of Anarchist Organizations (Slovenia & Croatia, FAO) annually organizes a
small Anarchist Festival (ANARH) in the second city to attract the local population to
libertarianism, as well as to enable associates and supporters to see and share. ---- This
year, Anarh2019 was held in Pula, which brought socializing, discussions, exhibitions,
films, distribution, after party and a day trip to nature as content, focusing on the
revival of the Istrian anarchism present on the peninsula since the 1870s. The program and
details are provided below. ---- Photos: Anarh2019 ---- Saturday 25.5.2019. ---- 18h
Introductory word # anarh2019 ---- 18: 30h Are there alternatives to scandalous unions?
(trade unionists and anarchists) ---- 20h Initiative Against Political Oppression in
Rijeka (PPRR) ---- 21:30 Networks of Mutual Help (Examples from Practice)
22: 30-02h After party #KarloBar (only for the bravest)
Sunday 26.5.2019.
12h Introductory word (Day care / KarloBar) #brank
12: 30h Trip to nature (Musil)
13h Antimilitarism, fighting against war and military industry (APL-FAO)
ps for the duration of the festival, but also afterwards the exhibition and distribution
on the subject " Istrian Anarchists " is available to the public at KarloBar (Karlo Rojc,
the ground floor right)
The pps festival is self financed with the infrastructure support of Living Room and
KarloBar (Karlo Rojc)
and THE WORKS ARE IMT INSTITUTIONS #obrani #javna #dobra
We also took advantage of the festival for the revival of our " Public goods defense "
campaign launched in Rijeka in 2013, using the election day (EU elections) to go to the
picnic at Muzil (the former military zone, now vulnerable to devastation and quite
prospective privatization), and focusing on privatization ie free access to the coast and
beaches, as a public good that is instantly hit by drinking water and forests. The
campaign is because of which a criminal proceeding (2014-2019) is being conducted against
two of our activists, following the brutal attack by the police in Rijeka in 2013, which
led to the International Initiative Against Political Oppression in Rijeka ( video ).
Fighting forward!

"It is no coincidence that where the governments of Papandreou and Samara failed, we
succeeded " ---- Alexis Tsipras (13/12/17) ---- What is going to change on July 7? You
will tell us, obviously, "the government of the country will change, SYRIZA will leave and
ND will come." Right. But, elsewhere we go. We mean, what does that really mean? That is,
what really changes and what remains of these ups and downs? "The state has continuity,"
as Tsipras had said in a very mute and sincere manner, making a clear statement of
submission to his real bosses. And that's why he followed the policy he followed by doing
exactly the opposite of what he had been pre-election, "succeeding where the former had
failed": salaries and pensions reductions, privatizations, cuts in all public benefits,
phasing out Sunday holidays, raising taxes, raising commodity prices, change of the social
security system, first-time housing auctions, attempt to abolish the right to strike by
challenging the workers' collective bodies, maintaining the same (anti) immigration
policy, absolute implementation of the NATO war machine requirements, tightening the penal
code " photographing "dynamic policy intervention practices, etc. Let us say that SYRIZA
has been adapted, as expected - at least for many of us, it was! - in fact, imposed by
capitalism. Now, to what extent he was previously aware of this reality and of his
self-evident imminent compliance with it, is another conversation, and we, the people of
the social base, actually do not even concern us. No surprise here, since the Chapter
(whose services the state is) obviously and would not voluntarily give away even the
slightest part of its sovereignty. Whenever and wherever this happened, let us remember
that it was the result of the bloody struggles of the working class. Consequently,

as a ship that flies in the open, with his boat spinning as the steering wheel comes, but
perhaps perhaps more. in a metro train, with the one sitting in the driver's seat to have
more management and supervision: not to make mistakes, to ensure proper operation, to

Could someone reasonably ask: "That is, nothing will change with the change of government?
Here the "left" will fall and the "right" will go up! This can not mean anything ... "It
would change, we would answer (when we stopped laughing about the inclusion of SYRIZA on
the left), but not the essence, not the hard core of the policy that has been and will
continue to be applied independently of the acronym that governs each time. The rapid
devaluation of the labor force and the further compression and weakening of the social
base, as well as the repressive measures that guarantee the implementation of this policy,
have never ceased to re-start now.
"Super-simplification," you will tell us. "Maybe a little, but not so much", we will
answer. Yes, the ways of implementing the new and old measures will be "frightened" and
the process of voting and applying will be speeded up - that is certain. Also, the world
of the struggle, those who, few and only a few, that is, who remained struggling after the
advent of Syriac "hope", will surely become the first and easiest goal of a crack of a
vengeful wave of repression, which, in fact, will (and then in all this ocean of stupidity
that overflows with the regime's media and social media to prove that you are not an
elephant, that you are the only one that is proven, as is shown by the adulteries, arrests
in imprisonments, etc., which accepts and receives repression from any government,
steadily and over time, always and probably ... forever). As you can see, it is the
mourning of victory and power, as ND wants to recall in any direction that she is the
neoliberal right of this place. And with her right, why, you are not a little to see for
four years that your opponents are doing better than you, without you! Thus, the policies
of local and international capital will be presented incompletely, and not made up with a
thousand two cheap ornaments. When they stand, they will not tell us that they are
supposed to do so "for our sake", as the previous ones, but they will tell us to block it
"in order not to have more". But this is not da and no ... cosmohistorical change, eh? If
it is to choose,
And to solve a question - to those you have come up to this time - probably created by the
title: "backward" has not been put by Greek society as a whole. No. The bosses know that
there is no one better able to serve their interests than a neoliberal right, steadily
becoming increasingly far right, picking up every throttled fascisture that circulates out
there and mincing it (and perhaps coextensive with an even more frightened fascist) and ,
in an ideal environment, with social and class resistances in an unprecedented recession
due to their incorporation and disintegration by SYRIZA. Why should they hide it? People
vote for their class interest. Those who retreat steadily are those who, with any
contradictions and differences in their starting points, methods, and targets, flooded the
streets and squares some years ago, in marches and strikes, refusing to accept ignorantly
their devaluation and impoverishment. And perhaps they dared to hope for something more
than the re-establishment of their "former acquirements". They are, therefore, bewildered,
those who have left the road and the real struggle in the workplaces, schools,
neighborhoods, etc. to put their hopes on the parliamentary road and SYRIZA - which
finally broke the berries in the impasse at which this choice led them. And instead of
reacting again, they would go back to the streets, more angry and more determined this
time because of the mockery they had suffered,
Step back, then, assigning to someone else to incarnate instead of us hope.
Step backwards, the inability to reconstruct the movement, when the impasse of the
parliamentary path became evident.
A step further behind, which until today we did not seem capable and able to overcome this
numbness and this weakness, while the opposing class camp is organized and upgraded
steadily and methodically, employing even the gangs of neo-Nazis.
And so on...
If there is something in our minds that really makes sense, which may actually mean the
diversion from the predictably destructive for humans and the nature vertiginous course
imposed by capitalism on a global level, it is nothing more than that militant -organizing
the social base, the exploited and the oppressed, in the light of their own class
interests and with the prospect of a society of solidarity, equality and freedom, without
classes and states.
At least, this hope, in spite of the times, continues unceasingly and continuously to resist.
