On December 6, 2008, a fifteen-year-old student, Alexandros Grigoropoulos, was
murdered in Exarchia by the special police guards, Epamineondas Korkoneas and
Vassilis Saraliotis. The specific assassination, which was added to a series of
state assassinations (Koumis, Kanellopoulou, Kaltezas, etc.), was the springboard
for the outbreak of the great social uprising of December. From the very night of
the assassination, thousands of people of all ages, pupils, students, workers and
many fighters, took to the streets of almost all the cities of the country. The
uprising that unfolded in the following days included, among other things, the
occupation of schools, universities and other public buildings, clashes with the
repressive forces, continuous demonstrations,
The December 2008 uprising was motivated by the murder of a 15-year-old student,
but it was the result of accumulated social anger over the chronic oppression of
the social majority by the state and capital, the chronic attack of the rulers on
freedoms and achievements. of from below. The key elements of this uprising were
its spontaneous, massive and disorganized character, as it was not directed by
any party body, but instead relied on the self-organization and solidarity of the
oppressed. At the same time, December '08 was the basis for the strengthening of
the movement that took place in the following years, while at the same time
breaking the state and capitalist normality once and for all. It has shaken the
foundations of authoritarian barbarism, which dispelled the myth of social peace
and artificial prosperity. Finally, for us and for thousands of other people, it
is a day of remembrance, resistance and struggle. A day that showed that the only
way to go on the counterattack and respond to the attack we are receiving is
unbridled and collective struggle, self-organization, solidarity, assertion,
resistance, rupture and conflict.
This year 6 theDecember takes place in a period of severe health crisis, a period
in which the government has imposed harsh measures of discipline, control and
repression, under the pretext of tackling the Covid-19 pandemic. It is obvious
that from the beginning the state has managed the pandemic in a criminal way, as
instead of aiming at dealing with it and protecting the society (strengthening
the NSS, recruiting medical staff, mass tests), it has not taken any substantial
measures to protect of human life, with the result that we get to the point of
counting hundreds of dead a day and screening patients in hospitals. The main
culprit for all these deaths is the state itself, which as if that were not enough,
Lately, more than ever, the above is becoming even more apparent. More
specifically, during the lockdown period, the state has set as its primary goal
the crushing of social and class resistance. This is clearly reflected in the way
he deals with every voice of resistance, assertiveness, disobedience and
challenge. The majority of the rallies, demonstrations and rallies that have
taken place during this period have been met with a repressive orgy by the
police, with hundreds of arrests, arrests and beatings. This suppressive and
anti-social design became even more evident in how the state handled the
demonstrations of 17 th November but also in the announcements of the government
in view of the demonstrations of December 6th . The special management chosen by
the state for these two dates reflects their importance and the fear of the
rulers for them, as they know that the uprisings are a constant reminder that
nothing was given by any power, but everything was won by the struggles.
Central to the general attack of the rulers on society as a whole is the attack
on students and the situation in universities. The proposal to establish a
university police force, the abolition of asylum, the anti-education bill and the
introduction of e-learning all express the ultimate goal of the rulers, which is
to disarm, fortify and retreat the student movement, so that best possible terms
and correlations their attacks on our acquis and interests. They seek a
university sterile from all traces of political fermentation, friction and
discussion among students about their problems. A university where class-student
unionism and any attempt to organize collective resistance as well as any attempt
to challenge state and capital plans will be fully supervised and criminalized.
They crave a university fully aligned with the requirements of the state and
capital, a university of larger class barriers, where attendance is the
prerogative of the few, the elite and the affluent, with student benefits
evaporating and basic needs for food, housing and transportation relocated. fully.
For our part, against the plans of the rulers and the dystopian future that they
are preparing both for us and for the wider sections of the exploiting class, we
have to oppose the power that comes from collectivization and struggle. In the
context of the overall crisis we are experiencing, against state bans and police
terrorism, to defend our memory, our dead and our struggles. To create hotbeds of
resistance and struggle inside and outside universities. The 6 theDecember is not
just a day of remembrance for us, but it reminds us of what we can achieve if we
take matters into our own hands, if we organize ourselves horizontally on the
basis of our common material-class interests, needs and desires. Twelve years
after the outbreak of the greatest social uprising of the last decades, let us
catch the thread of struggle, resistance and claim again.

On Saturday, October 10, the Marchons enfants collective, avatar of the 2013
Demonstrations for All, called for protest throughout France against fatherless
medically assisted procreation (PMA), the right to abortion and same-sex marriage
- to which they had added surrogacy - based on essentialist arguments: only a
heterosexual couple would be supposed to be legitimate and able to raise a child
- which the facts obviously contradict. ---- Feminist counter-demonstrations of
October 10 ---- As reactionaries gathered in 60 cities, various associations,
unions and political organizations, including UCL, called for retaliation. In
Grenoble, the number of counter-demonstrators has amply exceeded the hundred
fundamentalist Catholics wanting to violate our rights. While some tried to go
and apostrophize them, they encountered violent repression: gassing, charging and
clubbing, especially against the youngest ... The police have clearly shown which
side they are on. was placed.
Feminist counter-demonstrations of October 10
Under the LGBT +, anarcha-feminist and anarcho-queer flags resounded slogans such
as " Queers, deters and revolutionaries ! "," No fascists in our neighborhoods
! No neighborhood for the fascists ! "Or" A, A, anti, antripatriarcat "... to
make the old world tremble !
Feminist counter-demonstrations of October 10
However, we did not limit ourselves to denouncing the LGBTphobes of Marchons
enfants, and also pointed out the pseudoprogressist aspect of the parliamentary
majority: the opening of the assisted reproduction to transgender people as well
as the end of the mutilation of inter- sex have indeed been rejected by the
National Assembly.
Feminist counter-demonstrations of October 10
This bioethics law that the government brandishes as the symbol of its tolerance
towards those excluded from the cis-heteropatriarchal order is therefore very
fragmented: we want assisted reproduction for all, trans people included, an end
to child mutilation. inter-sex and real access to abortion, that is to say with
the relevant material and human resources.
The state will not give us anything that we will not impose on it, let's organize
feminist and libertarian self-defense.

Notes to understand the relationship between fascism and Zionism ---- Hand in
hand with imperialism, both fascism and Israeli Zionism have become global
phenomena linked to both war and terrorism. ---- "Fascism is not a political
party, but a certain conception of life and an attitude towards man, love and
work" (Wilhelm Reich) ---- It is astonishing and disconcerting that a
colonialist state with racist ideology like the Israeli one has managed to impose
its story of being a victim of terrorism on broad masses of the population
worldwide, especially in Europe. ---- It is even more distressing to observe how
the middle classes, well- thinking humanists of all colors and flavors, social
democrats and progressives, academics and journalists, claim to be in solidarity
with the Palestinian cause but at the same time reject the boycott of the Israeli
Zionist state; they are very careful not to be accused of being anti-Semitic and,
on many occasions, they assume that "some" Palestinians are violent and that they
should recognize the occupying state as legitimate.
These paradoxes, however, are only apparent if we analyze the socio-psychic
factors that, throughout history, have caused racist and supremacist ideologies
to go hand in hand, sharing objectives and interests; and they have also obtained
the support of broad social bases, at first among the middle classes and later
among the popular classes.
The harmony between fascism and Zionism comes from the fact that they share both
being related ideologies in relation to racism and from their pragmatic and
instrumental vision above any ethical value or principle. It is also important to
consider how both have used practices such as systematic and continuous
propaganda, or emotional manipulation, or economic and power alliances to hide
their goals and interests.
Nor can we ignore the history that has placed them in a position to understand
and support each other in pursuit of both apparently different objectives. Thus,
a well-documented historical-empirical investigation such as that carried out by
Lenni Brenner in 1983, showed that in the interwar period in Europe Zionism was a
very marginal political movement among Jews, who were generally integrated in
their respective countries and They did not consider emigrating anywhere, despite
growing anti-Semitism. In fact, these Jews who were not Zionists were the ones
who suffered most of the final solution. of the Nazis. And it was the Zionist
minority that, guided by its racist ideology and by its objective of creating the
kingdom of the Hebrew "superman" in Palestine, who not only did not confront the
German Nazis or the Italian fascists, but also made a pact with them. to empty
Europe of Jews.
But it seems that the past is past, and the Zionist plans have come together
again, both with the US imperialist project and with racist and classist European
policies. Policies that are different in form but similar in content and in the
logic that drives them. Thus, Obama more discreet and Trump more direct, the US
administrations have always guaranteed with arms and resources the survival of
their Zionist enclave in the Middle East; But the European allies have been the
ones who have created the ideological conditions to normalize the occupation and
apartheid to which the Zionist Entity subjects the Palestinians.
The imperialism-fascism-Zionism triad has created power networks that have spread
across the globe. Hand in hand with imperialism, both fascism and Israeli Zionism
have become global phenomena linked to both war and terrorism.. Hence, it was not
by chance that Israeli flags appeared between the Venezuelan coup opposition in
2016[2], or between the Bolivian coup right-wing in 2020[3], nor the very close
relations between Netanyahu and Bolsonaro[4], or cooperation, advice and military
support from Israel to Colombia, etc. But it is not by chance that the European
fascist far-right while attacking Jews is a firm ally of the Israeli Zionist
state. As Alys Samson Estapé points out, Europe has never been the open and
progressive continent that they would have us believe; no European country has
dealt with its colonial crimes with reparations, and its complicity with Israeli
apartheid against the Palestinian people is more than evident in declaring the
Zionist state a preferred partner.
In this way, after World War II, Zionism became the keystone of imperialist
expansion and domination; and it constitutes one of the masks behind which
fascism hides.
Fascism and Zionism have increased their influence on each other for years,
however, while fascism (a cross-dressing far-right party) continues to cause some
suspicion among sectors of the middle class, Zionism, whose unequivocal
expression is the Israeli state, finds little opposition. Zionism is easily
camouflaged in the multiple organizational and legal instruments, lobbies,
economic and scientific elites that operate in the West among progressive
sectors. The proliferation of American films about the Holocaust and with Jewish
protagonists, which flood the screens of the whole world, serves to hide the
Zionist barbarism against the Palestinians.
As it happened in the period between the wars in Europe, the social bases that
support the fascist parties are increasing and the same happens with Zionism;
that he is able to hide his fascist and supremacist ideology under the
progressive cloak that is provided by academics, intellectuals and politicians
who keep silent about Israeli apartheid, about Palestinian prisoners, about
torture and assassinations, and about the violation of rights suffered daily by
the Palestinian people.
Certainly, there are important sectors of the Western populations who are not
fooled by the Zionist propaganda machine and who support the Palestinian cause.
Since 1977, on November 29 of each year, the United Nations commemorates the
International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, and this year,
despite the COVID-19 pandemic, countless acts of solidarity with Palestine were
carried out around the world.
However, the question we should ask ourselves is not why there are people who
support the Palestinian cause, that is the most logical and reasonable thing to
do. Human beings tend to empathize with the victims, and in the present case,
there is no doubt that the historical, numerical, and legal evidence is on the
side of the Palestinians. It is difficult to cover the sun with a finger even if
the Zionist finger is very large. The question we have to ask ourselves is why
are so many people who still do not defend the Palestinian cause , why are there
still sensitive people who do nothing to end the Zionist occupation.
It would therefore be a question of understanding why, despite the fact that year
after year the Palestinian cause awakens more and more solidarity, that
solidarity does not translate into forceful and effective actions that roll back
the advances of Zionism.
The key is likely to be that the same historical, cultural, sociological and
economic factors that have made the rise of the fascist parties possible are
behind the Zionist expansion in both popular and left sectors. The manufacture
of submissive and obedient individuals is a factor that explains why the masses,
subjected to different forms of exploitation, act against their interests or
simply do not act.
Capitalism not only produces goods, it produces individuals. In recent years,
even more so after the financial crisis of 2008, European populations have become
more and more conservative. In good times the middle classes look up but in times
of crisis they desperately try to preserve their standard of living at any cost,
and the working classes accept their impoverishment as an unavoidable unfortunate
event.
The conservative and submissive character has become general, cementing the base
of fascism . As W. Reich described in 1933 "it was precisely the impoverished
masses who helped fascism, the most extreme political reaction, to take
power".[6]The thinking and acting of the masses is as contradictory as the
society from which they arise. The psychological conditions in which the European
populations found themselves in the interwar period - Reich tells us - "leads
them to absorb the imperialist ideology and translate into action the imperialist
slogans, in flagrant contradiction with the peaceful and apolitical mentality of
the German population. "[7].
Some parties and activists on the left believe that the consciousness of the
masses is acquired through speeches, slogans or slogans, explaining to the masses
the horrors that await them if the extreme right parties triumph. However,
neither class consciousness nor solidarity are created with speeches. If fascism
is again emerging in Europe, it is because the cultural, ideological and
psychological conditions have been created for it to proliferate.: individualism,
consumerism, submission, racism, chauvinism, etc., values of the ruling classes
that have to be generalized to maintain the reproduction of the capitalist
system. This is where we can see how Zionism, the first cousin of fascism, also
advances in all social sectors. In the middle classes fearful of angering the
elites and losing their relative privileges, in the popular classes predisposed
to accept the racist discourses and actions of Zionism because they have long
assumed the racist discourse against emigration, the scapegoat and cause of all
their evils.
If in the interwar period the Social Democracy had an enormous responsibility for
the rise of fascism and Zionism, in the same way today, where it governs, it does
nothing more than reproduce the conservatism of its bases that struggle to
maintain their standard of living against the impoverished national masses, and
against the emigrants who flee from the misery that imperialism spreads everywhere.
When democratic governments tend to become states of exception, the role of
fascism is to contain social protest, act as a threat raised by social
democracies to justify their policies "respectful of Capital", the free market
and "democratic" formality. W. Reich said that "When there are no revolutionary
organizations, disappointed by social democracy and subjected to the
contradiction between impoverishment and conservative thinking, the worker ends
up ascribing to fascism."[8]
The conservative and reactionary way of life that distances us from the suffering
of others has penetrated our daily lives while the pamphlets and solidarity
speeches only last a few hours . It is here where we must influence to reverse
the dehumanization process in which fascism thrives.
As fascism rises, the conditions are created for Zionism (the coincidental
fascist ideology) to bear fruit because the root of Zionism is the same: racism.
Zionism finds in fascism all the nutrients it needs to advance. Fascism finds in
Zionism a less historically marked image, it is easier for it to hide itself
since Zionism as an ideology is less recognizable among the great masses of
Western populations.
Therefore, confronting fascism implies unmasking all its expressions, one of
them, Zionism . It implies recognizing that the Palestinian cause is the
keystone, the watershed that delimits the field in which it is played, not the
future of a people, but of humanity.

Dear all, ---- As Anarchist Radio Berlin we had the opportunity to talk to Bursts
and William from the Final Straw Radio, co-members of the Channel Zero Podcast
Network. ---- During the 90 minutes of talk, we are taking some deeper dives into
the 2020 US elections and other US political topics like Trumpism and conspiracy
myths like QAnon. But also current everyday as well as political life under the
ongoing pandemic. And the increase in grassroots mutual aid organizing across the
so-called United States of America. Paired with a general look back on 4 years of
Trump and all the forms of resistance against it as well as an outlook on what is
to come. ---- Unfortunately, towards the end some of the audio got lost, so at
some point only Bursts is giving answers. Despite that, this interview might be
right for anyone who feels like their understanding of what's been going in the
US has declined over the last years.

At the end of November 2018, activists from the San Isidro Art Movement met for
the first time to demonstrate on the streets of Havana and in front of the
Ministry of Culture, with the aim of obtaining the revocation of the draft
decree-law 349 that it aimed to restrict the creativity of any artistic activity
on the island. Since the beginning of the movement, our comrades from Taller
Libertario Alfredo López de La Habana participated in these mobilizations. ----
Most campaigners against Decree 349 are from Havana and many of them live in the
Alamar neighborhood. A neighborhood that was the scene of an important movement
of alternative art and home to the most important festival of hip-hop and poetry
on the island, until it was interrupted and finally canceled by the Ministry of
Culture.
The activists of this movement adopted the name San Isidro due to the support of
the inhabitants of this neighborhood of the same name, located in the oldest part
of Havana, because the residents of the neighborhood rebelled against the forces
of law and order during a musical concert organized for protest against Decree
Law 349.
For artists united against Decree Law 349, it was clear that the Cuban government
did not want the existence of art independent of the State. We demonstrate this
with the suppression of the hip-hop and poetry festivals already mentioned, but
above all the Havana Biennial and the Youth Film Festival. Decree 349 was the
official response to these types of events and for the artists a declaration of
war. The government did not expect such popular rejection as an answer; but,
despite the peaceful manifestation of art before the most important institution
of culture, the decree came into force on December 7, 2019.
Harassment, threats and arrests followed throughout the campaign, not just after
being summoned to the Ministry of Culture. For example, the San Isidro Movement
tried to hold a collective meditation in a public park, but all the artists who
participated in the meeting were surrounded by the police. Several were arrested
for hours. For the Cuban government, dissent is not recognized as a right, so
anyone who protests against an official project is considered criminal and is
classified as a case of CR (counter-revolutionary). This stigma continues for the
rest of your life.
The short time they were arrested showed that the international repercussions had
been significant and that the government was concerned about the implications of
the repression. The official answer was given through a television program in
which the authorities justified the need to apply Decree 349. However, it was
said that its entry into force would not occur immediately and that the
regulation needed to be reviewed and discussed. For the movement, this
represented a victory. But waiting for the Cuban government to publicly
acknowledge an error is utopian, because there is so much arrogance on its part,
for fear of losing absolute control over the population.
A hunger strike and its consequences
Between 9 and 19 November, authorities again arbitrarily arrested and harassed a
large number of members of the San Isidro movement, often on several occasions.
Members of the movement, which includes artists, poets, LGBTI activists,
academics and independent journalists, have protested in recent days against the
arrest of rapper Denis Solis Gonzalez. Denis Solis was arrested on November 9 and
on November 11 he was tried and sentenced to eight months in prison for
"contempt", a crime incompatible with international human rights law. He is being
held in Valle Grande, a high security prison on the outskirts of Havana.
After a week of hunger strike and thirst for members of the San Isidro Movement,
Cuban police raided the headquarters of the San Isidro Movement on Thursday
night, to end the hunger and thirst strike of these artists demanding the release
of rapper Denis Solis, expelling Luis Manuel Otero Alcántar and 14 other Cubans
from the San Isidro Movement headquarters in Havana for an alleged crime of
propagating the Covid-19 epidemic, according to Cuban state media.
The Cuban government alleged the crime of spreading the Covid-19 epidemic to
arrest the artists and activists gathered at the headquarters of the San Isidro
Movement. A group of Cuban artists then asked the authorities to talk to members
of the San Isidro Movement and then listen to the young people present at the
Ministry of Culture headquarters. The police held about 15 people in prison for
several hours. Among them were journalists, artists and teachers who came
together to protest repression and government policies that increasingly restrict
freedom of expression. Several of the prisoners were released a few hours later.
After the arrests, writers and journalists from around the world denounced the
expulsion from the headquarters and demanded the release of the detainees, which
started a few hours later.
Members of the San Isidro Movement, artist Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara and singer
Maykel Castillo (Osorbo), continue their hunger strike until the Cuban government
releases rapper Denis Solis. Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara is now at Havana's
Fajardo Hospital and continues his hunger strike ", reports the official
statement on Twitter of the San Isidro Movement. Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara
refuses to go anywhere but his home on Havana's Damascus Street, where the
movement's headquarters are located.
On Friday, Amnesty International declared Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara, leader of
the San Isidro movement, a prisoner of conscience and called for his release.
Amnesty International asked the Cuban government to stop harassing members of the
San Isidro Movement and expressed concern about the situation of art commissioner
Anamely Ramos, who is also under police surveillance at the home of Professor
Omara Ruiz Urquiola.

in view of the demonstrations of December 6th . The special management chosen by
the state for these two dates reflects their importance and the fear of the
rulers for them, as they know that the uprisings are a constant reminder that
nothing was given by any power, but everything was won by the struggles.
Central to the general attack of the rulers on society as a whole is the attack
on students and the situation in universities. The proposal to establish a
university police force, the abolition of asylum, the anti-education bill and the
introduction of e-learning all express the ultimate goal of the rulers, which is
to disarm, fortify and retreat the student movement, so that best possible terms
and correlations their attacks on our acquis and interests. They seek a
university sterile from all traces of political fermentation, friction and
discussion among students about their problems. A university where class-student
unionism and any attempt to organize collective resistance as well as any attempt
to challenge state and capital plans will be fully supervised and criminalized.
They crave a university fully aligned with the requirements of the state and
capital, a university of larger class barriers, where attendance is the
prerogative of the few, the elite and the affluent, with student benefits
evaporating and basic needs for food, housing and transportation relocated. fully.
For our part, against the plans of the rulers and the dystopian future that they
are preparing both for us and for the wider sections of the exploiting class, we
have to oppose the power that comes from collectivization and struggle. In the
context of the overall crisis we are experiencing, against state bans and police
terrorism, to defend our memory, our dead and our struggles. To create hotbeds of
resistance and struggle inside and outside universities. The 6 theDecember is not
just a day of remembrance for us, but it reminds us of what we can achieve if we
take matters into our own hands, if we organize ourselves horizontally on the
basis of our common material-class interests, needs and desires. Twelve years
after the outbreak of the greatest social uprising of the last decades, let us
catch the thread of struggle, resistance and claim again.

On Saturday, October 10, the Marchons enfants collective, avatar of the 2013
Demonstrations for All, called for protest throughout France against fatherless
medically assisted procreation (PMA), the right to abortion and same-sex marriage
- to which they had added surrogacy - based on essentialist arguments: only a
heterosexual couple would be supposed to be legitimate and able to raise a child
- which the facts obviously contradict. ---- Feminist counter-demonstrations of
October 10 ---- As reactionaries gathered in 60 cities, various associations,
unions and political organizations, including UCL, called for retaliation. In
Grenoble, the number of counter-demonstrators has amply exceeded the hundred
fundamentalist Catholics wanting to violate our rights. While some tried to go
and apostrophize them, they encountered violent repression: gassing, charging and
clubbing, especially against the youngest ... The police have clearly shown which
side they are on. was placed.
Feminist counter-demonstrations of October 10
Under the LGBT +, anarcha-feminist and anarcho-queer flags resounded slogans such
as " Queers, deters and revolutionaries ! "," No fascists in our neighborhoods
! No neighborhood for the fascists ! "Or" A, A, anti, antripatriarcat "... to
make the old world tremble !
Feminist counter-demonstrations of October 10
However, we did not limit ourselves to denouncing the LGBTphobes of Marchons
enfants, and also pointed out the pseudoprogressist aspect of the parliamentary
majority: the opening of the assisted reproduction to transgender people as well
as the end of the mutilation of inter- sex have indeed been rejected by the
National Assembly.
Feminist counter-demonstrations of October 10
This bioethics law that the government brandishes as the symbol of its tolerance
towards those excluded from the cis-heteropatriarchal order is therefore very
fragmented: we want assisted reproduction for all, trans people included, an end
to child mutilation. inter-sex and real access to abortion, that is to say with
the relevant material and human resources.
The state will not give us anything that we will not impose on it, let's organize
feminist and libertarian self-defense.

Notes to understand the relationship between fascism and Zionism ---- Hand in
hand with imperialism, both fascism and Israeli Zionism have become global
phenomena linked to both war and terrorism. ---- "Fascism is not a political
party, but a certain conception of life and an attitude towards man, love and
work" (Wilhelm Reich) ---- It is astonishing and disconcerting that a
colonialist state with racist ideology like the Israeli one has managed to impose
its story of being a victim of terrorism on broad masses of the population
worldwide, especially in Europe. ---- It is even more distressing to observe how
the middle classes, well- thinking humanists of all colors and flavors, social
democrats and progressives, academics and journalists, claim to be in solidarity
with the Palestinian cause but at the same time reject the boycott of the Israeli
Zionist state; they are very careful not to be accused of being anti-Semitic and,
on many occasions, they assume that "some" Palestinians are violent and that they
should recognize the occupying state as legitimate.
These paradoxes, however, are only apparent if we analyze the socio-psychic
factors that, throughout history, have caused racist and supremacist ideologies
to go hand in hand, sharing objectives and interests; and they have also obtained
the support of broad social bases, at first among the middle classes and later
among the popular classes.
The harmony between fascism and Zionism comes from the fact that they share both
being related ideologies in relation to racism and from their pragmatic and
instrumental vision above any ethical value or principle. It is also important to
consider how both have used practices such as systematic and continuous
propaganda, or emotional manipulation, or economic and power alliances to hide
their goals and interests.
Nor can we ignore the history that has placed them in a position to understand
and support each other in pursuit of both apparently different objectives. Thus,
a well-documented historical-empirical investigation such as that carried out by
Lenni Brenner in 1983, showed that in the interwar period in Europe Zionism was a
very marginal political movement among Jews, who were generally integrated in
their respective countries and They did not consider emigrating anywhere, despite
growing anti-Semitism. In fact, these Jews who were not Zionists were the ones
who suffered most of the final solution. of the Nazis. And it was the Zionist
minority that, guided by its racist ideology and by its objective of creating the
kingdom of the Hebrew "superman" in Palestine, who not only did not confront the
German Nazis or the Italian fascists, but also made a pact with them. to empty
Europe of Jews.
But it seems that the past is past, and the Zionist plans have come together
again, both with the US imperialist project and with racist and classist European
policies. Policies that are different in form but similar in content and in the
logic that drives them. Thus, Obama more discreet and Trump more direct, the US
administrations have always guaranteed with arms and resources the survival of
their Zionist enclave in the Middle East; But the European allies have been the
ones who have created the ideological conditions to normalize the occupation and
apartheid to which the Zionist Entity subjects the Palestinians.
The imperialism-fascism-Zionism triad has created power networks that have spread
across the globe. Hand in hand with imperialism, both fascism and Israeli Zionism
have become global phenomena linked to both war and terrorism.. Hence, it was not
by chance that Israeli flags appeared between the Venezuelan coup opposition in
2016[2], or between the Bolivian coup right-wing in 2020[3], nor the very close
relations between Netanyahu and Bolsonaro[4], or cooperation, advice and military
support from Israel to Colombia, etc. But it is not by chance that the European
fascist far-right while attacking Jews is a firm ally of the Israeli Zionist
state. As Alys Samson Estapé points out, Europe has never been the open and
progressive continent that they would have us believe; no European country has
dealt with its colonial crimes with reparations, and its complicity with Israeli
apartheid against the Palestinian people is more than evident in declaring the
Zionist state a preferred partner.
In this way, after World War II, Zionism became the keystone of imperialist
expansion and domination; and it constitutes one of the masks behind which
fascism hides.
Fascism and Zionism have increased their influence on each other for years,
however, while fascism (a cross-dressing far-right party) continues to cause some
suspicion among sectors of the middle class, Zionism, whose unequivocal
expression is the Israeli state, finds little opposition. Zionism is easily
camouflaged in the multiple organizational and legal instruments, lobbies,
economic and scientific elites that operate in the West among progressive
sectors. The proliferation of American films about the Holocaust and with Jewish
protagonists, which flood the screens of the whole world, serves to hide the
Zionist barbarism against the Palestinians.
As it happened in the period between the wars in Europe, the social bases that
support the fascist parties are increasing and the same happens with Zionism;
that he is able to hide his fascist and supremacist ideology under the
progressive cloak that is provided by academics, intellectuals and politicians
who keep silent about Israeli apartheid, about Palestinian prisoners, about
torture and assassinations, and about the violation of rights suffered daily by
the Palestinian people.
Certainly, there are important sectors of the Western populations who are not
fooled by the Zionist propaganda machine and who support the Palestinian cause.
Since 1977, on November 29 of each year, the United Nations commemorates the
International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, and this year,
despite the COVID-19 pandemic, countless acts of solidarity with Palestine were
carried out around the world.
However, the question we should ask ourselves is not why there are people who
support the Palestinian cause, that is the most logical and reasonable thing to
do. Human beings tend to empathize with the victims, and in the present case,
there is no doubt that the historical, numerical, and legal evidence is on the
side of the Palestinians. It is difficult to cover the sun with a finger even if
the Zionist finger is very large. The question we have to ask ourselves is why
are so many people who still do not defend the Palestinian cause , why are there
still sensitive people who do nothing to end the Zionist occupation.
It would therefore be a question of understanding why, despite the fact that year
after year the Palestinian cause awakens more and more solidarity, that
solidarity does not translate into forceful and effective actions that roll back
the advances of Zionism.
The key is likely to be that the same historical, cultural, sociological and
economic factors that have made the rise of the fascist parties possible are
behind the Zionist expansion in both popular and left sectors. The manufacture
of submissive and obedient individuals is a factor that explains why the masses,
subjected to different forms of exploitation, act against their interests or
simply do not act.
Capitalism not only produces goods, it produces individuals. In recent years,
even more so after the financial crisis of 2008, European populations have become
more and more conservative. In good times the middle classes look up but in times
of crisis they desperately try to preserve their standard of living at any cost,
and the working classes accept their impoverishment as an unavoidable unfortunate
event.
The conservative and submissive character has become general, cementing the base
of fascism . As W. Reich described in 1933 "it was precisely the impoverished
masses who helped fascism, the most extreme political reaction, to take
power".[6]The thinking and acting of the masses is as contradictory as the
society from which they arise. The psychological conditions in which the European
populations found themselves in the interwar period - Reich tells us - "leads
them to absorb the imperialist ideology and translate into action the imperialist
slogans, in flagrant contradiction with the peaceful and apolitical mentality of
the German population. "[7].
Some parties and activists on the left believe that the consciousness of the
masses is acquired through speeches, slogans or slogans, explaining to the masses
the horrors that await them if the extreme right parties triumph. However,
neither class consciousness nor solidarity are created with speeches. If fascism
is again emerging in Europe, it is because the cultural, ideological and
psychological conditions have been created for it to proliferate.: individualism,
consumerism, submission, racism, chauvinism, etc., values of the ruling classes
that have to be generalized to maintain the reproduction of the capitalist
system. This is where we can see how Zionism, the first cousin of fascism, also
advances in all social sectors. In the middle classes fearful of angering the
elites and losing their relative privileges, in the popular classes predisposed
to accept the racist discourses and actions of Zionism because they have long
assumed the racist discourse against emigration, the scapegoat and cause of all
their evils.
If in the interwar period the Social Democracy had an enormous responsibility for
the rise of fascism and Zionism, in the same way today, where it governs, it does
nothing more than reproduce the conservatism of its bases that struggle to
maintain their standard of living against the impoverished national masses, and
against the emigrants who flee from the misery that imperialism spreads everywhere.
When democratic governments tend to become states of exception, the role of
fascism is to contain social protest, act as a threat raised by social
democracies to justify their policies "respectful of Capital", the free market
and "democratic" formality. W. Reich said that "When there are no revolutionary
organizations, disappointed by social democracy and subjected to the
contradiction between impoverishment and conservative thinking, the worker ends
up ascribing to fascism."[8]
The conservative and reactionary way of life that distances us from the suffering
of others has penetrated our daily lives while the pamphlets and solidarity
speeches only last a few hours . It is here where we must influence to reverse
the dehumanization process in which fascism thrives.
As fascism rises, the conditions are created for Zionism (the coincidental
fascist ideology) to bear fruit because the root of Zionism is the same: racism.
Zionism finds in fascism all the nutrients it needs to advance. Fascism finds in
Zionism a less historically marked image, it is easier for it to hide itself
since Zionism as an ideology is less recognizable among the great masses of
Western populations.
Therefore, confronting fascism implies unmasking all its expressions, one of
them, Zionism . It implies recognizing that the Palestinian cause is the
keystone, the watershed that delimits the field in which it is played, not the
future of a people, but of humanity.

Dear all, ---- As Anarchist Radio Berlin we had the opportunity to talk to Bursts
and William from the Final Straw Radio, co-members of the Channel Zero Podcast
Network. ---- During the 90 minutes of talk, we are taking some deeper dives into
the 2020 US elections and other US political topics like Trumpism and conspiracy
myths like QAnon. But also current everyday as well as political life under the
ongoing pandemic. And the increase in grassroots mutual aid organizing across the
so-called United States of America. Paired with a general look back on 4 years of
Trump and all the forms of resistance against it as well as an outlook on what is
to come. ---- Unfortunately, towards the end some of the audio got lost, so at
some point only Bursts is giving answers. Despite that, this interview might be
right for anyone who feels like their understanding of what's been going in the
US has declined over the last years.

At the end of November 2018, activists from the San Isidro Art Movement met for
the first time to demonstrate on the streets of Havana and in front of the
Ministry of Culture, with the aim of obtaining the revocation of the draft
decree-law 349 that it aimed to restrict the creativity of any artistic activity
on the island. Since the beginning of the movement, our comrades from Taller
Libertario Alfredo López de La Habana participated in these mobilizations. ----
Most campaigners against Decree 349 are from Havana and many of them live in the
Alamar neighborhood. A neighborhood that was the scene of an important movement
of alternative art and home to the most important festival of hip-hop and poetry
on the island, until it was interrupted and finally canceled by the Ministry of
Culture.
The activists of this movement adopted the name San Isidro due to the support of
the inhabitants of this neighborhood of the same name, located in the oldest part
of Havana, because the residents of the neighborhood rebelled against the forces
of law and order during a musical concert organized for protest against Decree
Law 349.
For artists united against Decree Law 349, it was clear that the Cuban government
did not want the existence of art independent of the State. We demonstrate this
with the suppression of the hip-hop and poetry festivals already mentioned, but
above all the Havana Biennial and the Youth Film Festival. Decree 349 was the
official response to these types of events and for the artists a declaration of
war. The government did not expect such popular rejection as an answer; but,
despite the peaceful manifestation of art before the most important institution
of culture, the decree came into force on December 7, 2019.
Harassment, threats and arrests followed throughout the campaign, not just after
being summoned to the Ministry of Culture. For example, the San Isidro Movement
tried to hold a collective meditation in a public park, but all the artists who
participated in the meeting were surrounded by the police. Several were arrested
for hours. For the Cuban government, dissent is not recognized as a right, so
anyone who protests against an official project is considered criminal and is
classified as a case of CR (counter-revolutionary). This stigma continues for the
rest of your life.
The short time they were arrested showed that the international repercussions had
been significant and that the government was concerned about the implications of
the repression. The official answer was given through a television program in
which the authorities justified the need to apply Decree 349. However, it was
said that its entry into force would not occur immediately and that the
regulation needed to be reviewed and discussed. For the movement, this
represented a victory. But waiting for the Cuban government to publicly
acknowledge an error is utopian, because there is so much arrogance on its part,
for fear of losing absolute control over the population.
A hunger strike and its consequences
Between 9 and 19 November, authorities again arbitrarily arrested and harassed a
large number of members of the San Isidro movement, often on several occasions.
Members of the movement, which includes artists, poets, LGBTI activists,
academics and independent journalists, have protested in recent days against the
arrest of rapper Denis Solis Gonzalez. Denis Solis was arrested on November 9 and
on November 11 he was tried and sentenced to eight months in prison for
"contempt", a crime incompatible with international human rights law. He is being
held in Valle Grande, a high security prison on the outskirts of Havana.
After a week of hunger strike and thirst for members of the San Isidro Movement,
Cuban police raided the headquarters of the San Isidro Movement on Thursday
night, to end the hunger and thirst strike of these artists demanding the release
of rapper Denis Solis, expelling Luis Manuel Otero Alcántar and 14 other Cubans
from the San Isidro Movement headquarters in Havana for an alleged crime of
propagating the Covid-19 epidemic, according to Cuban state media.
The Cuban government alleged the crime of spreading the Covid-19 epidemic to
arrest the artists and activists gathered at the headquarters of the San Isidro
Movement. A group of Cuban artists then asked the authorities to talk to members
of the San Isidro Movement and then listen to the young people present at the
Ministry of Culture headquarters. The police held about 15 people in prison for
several hours. Among them were journalists, artists and teachers who came
together to protest repression and government policies that increasingly restrict
freedom of expression. Several of the prisoners were released a few hours later.
After the arrests, writers and journalists from around the world denounced the
expulsion from the headquarters and demanded the release of the detainees, which
started a few hours later.
Members of the San Isidro Movement, artist Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara and singer
Maykel Castillo (Osorbo), continue their hunger strike until the Cuban government
releases rapper Denis Solis. Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara is now at Havana's
Fajardo Hospital and continues his hunger strike ", reports the official
statement on Twitter of the San Isidro Movement. Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara
refuses to go anywhere but his home on Havana's Damascus Street, where the
movement's headquarters are located.
On Friday, Amnesty International declared Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara, leader of
the San Isidro movement, a prisoner of conscience and called for his release.
Amnesty International asked the Cuban government to stop harassing members of the
San Isidro Movement and expressed concern about the situation of art commissioner
Anamely Ramos, who is also under police surveillance at the home of Professor
Omara Ruiz Urquiola.
