Blockupy the assault of the ECB (fr, it, pt) [machine translation]

The inauguration of the new headquarters of the European Central Bank is scheduled for 18 
March in Frankfurt am Main. The Blockupy coalition is preparing to play spoilsport. ---- 
While the European Central Bank (ECB) preaches with the European Commission and the 
governments of the EU (except the new Greek government) blocking policies or even wage 
cuts and the dismantling of public services and devices social protection, she built a 
fortress-building of 1.3 billion euros which symbolizes totally uninhibited domination of 
capital. ---- Mass actions ---- It is in a festive atmosphere that the European oligarchy 
(heads of state, bankers and captains of industry) plans to get together to celebrate his 
power. Blockupy, a coalition of social movements and anti-capitalist[1] created in 2010, 
considering that "there is nothing to celebrate in the austerity policies" intends to 
spoil the party. Blockupy provides deployment in the streets and squares of Frankfurt and 
massive action of civil disobedience. The morning will be marked by the shares of 
blockages and encirclement of the ECB. The actions are designed so that everyone can 
participate regardless of their level of experience. The afternoon will be marked by an 
international event and words sockets. Delegations from a dozen countries are expected.

Convergence revolts

By attacking the ECB and governments that are armed capital arm Blockupy wants to 
politicize and contribute to the convergence of revolts against the capitalist order, but 
also to build an anti-authoritarian alternative and self-management. This is the purpose 
of the meetings held last November in Frankfurt, to prepare the mobilization of March 
18[2]. Beyond this deadline Blockupy wishes to make the lever of a sustainable European 
convergence against austerity policies. All the more reason to get to Frankfurt in March!
