(en) Germany, FdA-IFA: Report on the (Anarcha) feminist action of libertarians action Frankfurt the women's day of struggle (de),

 (en) Germany, FdA-IFA: Report on the (Anarcha) feminist
action of libertarians action Frankfurt (Oder) on 07.03.2015 under the
World Women's day of fighting followed by a party in the women's day
of struggle (de) [machine translation]

With a party at Verbündungshaus fforst the international women's day of struggle in 2015 
was initiated. The preceding was an eventful day. With an exhibition and a presentation of 
the life's work of the anarchist and co-founder Anarcha-feminist positions, Emma Goldman 
was intended. Another presentation of the group "s * spaces" in Dresden dealt with the 
criticism of the concept of power to define and invited to the discussion. A stencil 
workshop provided an opportunity to engage in practice. ---- Against 14 clock rang music 
of the 20s in the Great crowd street in Frankfurt (Oder). The trio, consisting of double 
bass, violin and guitar, invited those present and passer * inside the exhibition "Emma 
Goldman: anarchist, revolutionary feminist" field. ---- Around 14.30 the exhibition was 
opened with a short speech and champagne reception. This was followed by a lecture on the 
life and work of Emma Goldman. Upon further champagne and vegan appetizers stayed the 
present and the exhibition looked at, which was visited during the day by many people 
interested to 19.00 clock. By 18 clock finally struck the dinner in the form of a couscous 
and vegetable dish.

17 Clock began the presentation of the group "s * spaces" from Dresden. This dealt with 
the question of the interpretation of the definition of power and its effects. What other 
options are available in an emancipatory Society for the clarification of (sexual) border 
crossings? However, many issues were raised and there was room for discussion, which was 
deepened after in-one calls. It should be noted at this point that was not about to deny 
power to define, but to stimulate critical debate thus to achieve a better practice.

20 clock then the party started with the motto "If I can't dance, it's not my revolution" 
fforst in Verbündungshaus. It started again to the delight of the input Trio described. 
Then entered "Bahati" from Berlin the stage and sat down with issues such as sexism in 
hip-hop in the form of "Digital Poetry" apart, a style that dates back to the genre of the 
spoken word. The closure was Djane Frenzy of FFO, which marked the transition in the early 
day of struggle wife and then made him a boozy morning.

With the exhibition and lectures, people were reached outside the movement. New contacts 
were made and so we were visible in the center of town.

We would like to thank the musicians * inside the Verbündungshaus fforst eV, the students 
Miles eV and all helpers * Candidates who contributed to the success of the day.

The exhibition will be open until March 20, Monday - open 18.00 clock, - Friday in complex 
media on the big crowd street, each of 15.00.

(en) Germany, FAU-IAA - Fundraising campaign for CSAAWU ended - money transferred EUR: 1, 616.15

In the fundraising campaign to which the FAU have called in early January came 616,15 EUR 
total EUR together - Thank you to all donors * inside! This is the FAU but too little, 
accordingly, we pack again EUR 1,000 on it, so that we can support the struggle of CSAAWU 
with a total of EUR 1,616.15 (~ 21,000 Rand). Although the CSAAWU has reached its first 
fundraising goal of $ 10,000, this is by far not enough to cover them aufgebrummten costs. 
Accordingly, we continue to call for direct donations to the account of the CSAAWU (see 
below) or Indiegogo on. Bank: Standard Bank / Account number: 072003596 / account holder: 
CSAAWU / Branch name: Tyger Manor / Branch code: 050410 / Swift Code: SBZAZAJJ

Dear Members of the CSAAWU

We support your struggle and your fight for a strong union of farmworkers in South Africa 
and send you our best wishes and solidarity! We condemn the repression by the South 
African Labour Court against CSAAWU. We recognize that the work CSAAWU does is extremely 
important for workers, and we hope you make great strides in the unionization of rural 
workers. It is amazing to see that there is a union like you - with clear principles that 
is taking up the fight against the exploitation in South Africa.

We, the Free Workers Union (FAU), are a self-organized federation of local unions in 
Germany. We know all about the repression of democratic, worker-based and fighting unions 
- by bosses, the state and the big unions that have no interest in advancing the workers' 
struggle. We have dealt with it in the past, and we deal with it in the present.

We stand in the tradition of syndicalism: a strong part of this tradition is international 
solidarity between workers in different countries! Since we heard from the Zabalaza 
Anarchist Communist Front about your case, we started an internal and open call for 
donations within our networks. We have to defend unions that are based on the workers and 
not directed by elites. Although FAU is a small federation, we are glad that we could send 
you more than 1600 Euro (around R21000) to assist you in your fight against repression. We 
hope that CSAAWU will get through all of this so that in 2016 we can send you greetings 
for your 10th anniversary. Keep on comrades!

Internationalist greetings
In Solidarity
FAU

(en) Germany, Rights and Safety for Refugees! In Memory of Khaled Idris Bahray 16. Januar 2015 in Allgemein (de)

Demonstration, They don?t really care about us - Khaled Idris Bahray is dead ---- On the 
morning of January 13, 2015 the refugee Kahlid Idris Bahdray (20) was found dead in the 
inner yard of his appartment in Leubnitz-Neuostra, Dresden. Contrary to the first police 
statements, it is now certain, that Khaled was killed with several knife stabs. A racist 
motive cannot be ruled out at this point of time. Khaled was from Eritrea and had only 
been in Dresden for a few weeks. His friends are shocked and want to knwo why he was 
murdered. However, they also want to know why they are not safe here ? in Dresden. Because 
of this we are meeting this Saturday to take the streets collectively. We are meeting to 
loudly take his friends? questions and demands into the streets.

Why Khaled was murdered?

We still don?t know. No one knows. The normal reaction to these situations is to exclude 
the possibility of homicide with a racist background. Why? ? The case of the homicides 
perpretated by the terrorist organisation National Social Underground and the murder of 
Oury Jalloh show exactly why. The facts of this case and reports of it from part of 
Khaled?s friends are clearly a prove that refugees are being threatened here. They are 
afraid. And they do have the right to be afraid. This fear itself is a strong motivation 
for going out to the streets and to protest against racism.

The Dresden police have started their investigations by fully misjudging the situation. 
Although Khaled?s body was found covered in blood, the police immediately excluded the 
possibility of an act of violence. It is a clear failure of the police department to 
exclude one possible cause of death before any investigation. Later and through pressure 
of the media and the public the homicide division took over. It has become clear: Khaled 
was stabbed to death. However, the initial errors have delayed the preservation of 
evidence for 30 hours. This is not the first time for Dresden police to delay and obstruct 
investigations; this became clear in the murder case of Jorge Gomondai in 1991. Therefore, 
we demand the thorough solution of the murder. We will keep on critically observing the 
investigations.

Racism yesterday and today

Against the background of a revival of nationalism (?Wir sind ein Volk/ We are one 
people?) and of a political und legal vacuum in Eastern Germany since 1991 racist attacks 
increased all over Germany, which incredibly peaked in the pogroms in Hoyerswerda, Rostock 
and the murders in M?lln and Solingen. The result is a far-reaching hegemony of everyday 
racism in the east German society. With the abolition of the basic right of asylum, which 
was justified by the pogroms, the racists of majority society got what they wanted and 
were in victory mood.

The development of this situation pulls us through what we?re living nowadays. In 
opposition to other german cities, Dresden has really a few migrants. According to the 
concept of integration for foreigners in Dresden ?most of the migrants don?t come in and 
go out from the eastern states of Germany voluntarely, and they leave them as soon as 
their residence permit allows them to?. This quote proves that something must be wrong.

We are living in a city, where refugees and migrants are attacked daily in the streets, 
where arson attacks are committed against restaurants of migrants regularly, where Marwa 
El-Sherbini was stabbed to death in the courtroom because of her muslim background. The 
racist atmosphere is in the air of Dresden. PEGIDA is the manifestation of a racism of 
societal center. This makes possible, that the citizens of Dresden-Laubegast prevent a 
hotel from becoming an asylumseekers accommodation with a collection of signatures and 
threats; or that young migrants are attacked on december 22 2014 after the PEGIDA 
demonstration with applause, with pepper spray, tasers and telescope batons.

Inhuman comments in social media like ?One less? speak for themselves.

How does it feel to be a refugee in Dresden?

We would love to get to know our neighbors better as well as the people in our daily 
environment. We would enjoy to share our cultures, but unfortunetaly we find it hard to 
get in contact. We find it especially depressing that the people in our environment seem 
to show no interest in us at all. On the contrary: we are treated with hostility. Every 
day we experience exclusion. We live with the possibility of verbal and physical attacks. 
In the supermarket, in the streets and in the tram. People even leave their seats when we 
sit down next to them ? only because of our origin.

The migrants do not understand the insults in German they are confronted with. However, it 
is much worse that we do not understand the threats. If someone comes to you and says: 
?I?m gonna kill you? ? how are we supposed to understand this?

They have experienced recent monday evenings as the most frightening. After the 
PEGIDA-demonstrations small racist groups roam the city on manhunts. After 8 pm we are 
scared to leave our appartments. They told us to only move in groups, anything else would 
be too dangerous. But everyone should be able to move freely. We find this alarming. We 
came to Germany to leave violence, war, poverty and persecution behind. Our parents were 
happy for us having fled those circumstances. We thought to have left all of this behind 
us, we thought we could live freely from now on. Why can we not win peace at last? Why 
does nobody want to know about the reason of our flight? Why is it so hard to make friends?

Most of the people in Dresden have bad sight on refugees. They take actions against 
refugees like throwing bottles to the head or showing the middle finger. And at the date 
of 12/01/2015 the very shameful action has happened to young Eritrean Khaled Idris. He has 
left us. During this time all refugees were afraid and stressed. So as refugees we need 
solutions for our safety. We also want to make the following demands:

1. We need to know what have happened to Khaled and want to bring the murderer taken to 
higher court
2. We don?t feel secure to live in Dresden because many Eritreans got some actions or 
problems in their way. We have a language problem. So we need a translator to connect with 
us and translate between German and Tigrinya
3. Some part of society in Dresden does not accept refugees to live here and demonstrates 
against refugees every Monday evening. If they don?t accept us well we need to move to a 
place where we are secure.

We stand behind the Eritrean community and behind all people who are affected by the 
racist atmosphere in Dresden. We demand the politicians to finally ensure the refugees? 
safety. We demand the Minister of the Interior, Markus Ulbig, to resign because he is not 
performing his duties. And, most of all, we ask the society of Dresden to take a stand 
against PEGIDA on mondays. We ask the associations, institutions, companies and people to 
finally fly the flag. Few might be affected, many are meant. PEGIDA concerns all of us! We 
want to stop the right to asylum being cut down by the debate on ?safe countries of origin?.
Instead we demand the creation of a safe exile!

Editorial

Loved Readers, maybe it was in the spring in your operation a council election. Maybe one 
or the other candidate has of you. One remains as before, from anarcho-syndicalist vision 
is the subject of hot debate as to be read in this issue. I personally think it makes 
sense to take a chance sometimes. In too many companies especially smaller sweatshops, 
thinks the boss, he can do whatever he wants. It is also a learning process, which may 
contribute to the development of one's personality, provided you do not be content with 
the passive role, but take your right to training was used and what they learned into 
practice an.Nun good, now some will say, a council member was chosen basically for four 
years and not so easily be deselected or the other would only rely on the council. But 
honestly, it's not even in clubs, projects or informal groups effectively so that usually 
only a few are active and then set the tone and the rest is happy with this circumstance 
to hear ist.Ebenfalls often that the Works Constitution Act to a trustful collaborations 
between council and the employer turns off within the meaning of the operation.

Such general principles do not forbid the action within the meaning of the workforce. In 
addition, the works council activity must not proceed apolitical. It is very possible on a 
company meeting, a pulse-Unit with social assessments to pack by a trade union secretary 
on the agenda. Another platform for social issues with a certain impact would be about the 
bulletin board. The council is also not prevented from making its decisions and 
discussions clear or involve colleagues. There are so few we Gestaltungsr?ume.Kommen to 
FAU. It is gratifying that some activities are recorded and more and more people join us. 
Currently, the comrades in Berlin before the Swedish school fight against arbitrary 
practices. In some cities make syndicates with the wage levels talked about.

Nevertheless, the current main focus is decision-making processes in society, even for 
an organization with flat hierarchies and supposedly not an exciting affair for 
intra-group self-reflection. After all, who sets the tone in structures, which depend 
strongly on voluntary participation and initiative? Most people with time and / or 
material resources. That's a downside of libertarian groups, so a solidarity handling in 
any relationship prerequisite to the emancipatory claims is to do justice.

Enjoy reading and reflection,
Christian Horn

As of now, the "Direct Action" a new price. After we were able to keep the price for years 
and have it eaten up even our financial resources, we must take this step now. The reasons 
are, as with other leaves, always the same. Paper prices rise, rising postage costs, and 
so on. Particularly hard hit us the abolition of the sales tax exemption for postage. 
Since the bill was higher at a stroke by almost a fifth. We have also decided consciously 
for a "bigger" step of 50 cents. Anything else would have already anticipated that we 
would have to turn again to the price spiral in one or two years. We hope you go this step 
with the " DA ".

(en) Germany, Anarcho-Syndikalistische Jugend - "Nazi glorification stop! Nazis in Remagen oppose "Against the Nazi rally on November 22, 2014 (de)

 [machine translation]

October 13, 2014 in actions and anti-fascism ---- The ASJ Bonn supports the following call 
of the anti-fascist campaign Nazi glorification stop! Nazis in Remagen oppose: ---- On 
November 22, want to become the sixth consecutive neo-Nazis march from all over Germany in 
Remagen. "Nazi glorification stopping" the anti-fascist coalition is calling for a 
national, anti-fascist demonstration: stop Nazi marches and Nazi glorification! ---- Nazi 
glorification and German victims myths ---- Remagen, a small town on the Rhine between 
Koblenz and Bonn is known for the first Allied Rhine crossing in the liberation struggle 
against Hitler Germany. The Nazis, however, does not come because of the "Bridge of 
Remagen", but because of the "Rheinwiesenlager", a temporary assembly center for German 
prisoners of war in the under war-related circumstances died about 1200 prisoners. The 
Nazis invent themselves casualties of over a million dead and speak of an alleged 
genocide. The goal is clear: The German crimes are relativized and German perpetrators * 
inside being transformed into victims.

That the neo-Nazis choose for their twisting of history Remagen as a stage, however, is no 
coincidence. In Remagen there are the so-called Peace Chapel, commemorating the Allied 
prison camp. On a plaque set in the ground here is the "doughboys", who were housed in 
this "terror camps" thought. Words to German atrocities and the German guilt not found. In 
the chapel is a copy of the sculpture "Black Madonna" issued, a work of the former 
occupants of the Rhine meadow camp and Nazi artist Adolf Wamper. This revisionist monument 
and its acceptance are for us for the deep anchorage German opera myths.

Against the Nazi structures
responsible for the marches was for many years the Nazi comradeship action office Middle 
Rhine [ABM]. As this was shattered in 2012 on charges of forming a criminal association, 
the Nazi party jumped rights. This year the event will be held under new assembly line 
according Nazis. This is probably due to the restructuring of the neo-Nazi scene in the 
region. The neo-Nazis detained 26 of ABM have left all the pre-trial detention since early 
2014. In the region Remagen and the district of Ahrweiler is back and still a 
well-connected and violent neo-Nazi scene.

We note: For years, there were many places almost no open discussion of this Nazi scene. 
After the destruction of the State ABM eyes and ears were closed again - if they were ever 
opened once. Victims of neo-Nazi violence, which is now before the court, get no 
attention, but the old "Brown House" a new coat of paint.

November 22 - Anti Fascist Action:
! against the Nazi demo against victims myths
of 2013, we have successfully criticized the German victims myths and showed the Nazis 
that they are not welcome in Remagen. With 450 anti-fascists * inside, the Nazis were 
about 300 the first time no longer the largest group on that day. Despite anti-fascist 
protests, however, the Nazis were able to carry out their demo. We do not want to accept 
that again this year can deploy neo-Nazis in Remagen. We will oppose on 22 November in 
solidarity with the progressive elements of civil society and active anti-Nazis inside * 
in the province of the Nazi march. In addition to the protest against the Nazi rally and 
the Nazi structures on site, it is especially the distortion of history towards the German 
victims myth decided to declare war.

Come November 22, the anti-fascist demo and subsequent protest against the Nazi rally in 
Remagen! Stop Nazi glorification! Against any historical revisionism!

(en) Germany, FDA/IFA, Gai D?o #46 -. Published in October 2014 + Content + Editorial (de)

[machine translation]

The October issue of Gai D?o, the monthly magazine of the Federation of German anarchists. 
Just in time for the beginning of autumn and Einheitsabgefeier can be found in the current 
issue uA posts on current urban political struggles in Wuppertal, "The new PKK" and its 
substantive and strategic transformation, an analysis of "what Germany Europe wants," the 
first part of a series of articles on "Gustav Landauer's position on world war "and much 
more. ---- Is gentrification of the speech, this is probably not rare first associated 
with the "big cities": Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, or Frankfurt. Not only that appreciation, 
exploding rents, forced evictions and structural displacement there especially extremely 
quickly and comprehensively take place, also appears the resistance to it - by the 
diversity, frequency, and media dissemination - particularly, or at least above average, 
strong. Beyond that, the question "Who owns the city?" Often in an explicitly radical 
political and / or subcultural context: The struggle for new (or maintaining existing) 
autonomous spaces, alternative centers, or corrals. But of course, gentrification is not 
oriented inward payable to residents*, but at potential profit and thus occurs wherever 
the demand for housing exceeds the supply available anyway, or can be increased in 
perspective so far. So also in the northern city of Wuppertal.

And also there showed and shows resistance to the concept of an urban policy in the profit 
the only premise and adequate funding is the only raison d'?tre. And the same in all above 
mentioned areas: the self-organized and collective protest of the residents * inside a 
house before modernization and huge rent increase, the attempt to turn vacant buildings 
into autonomous spaces , as well as the struggle of the old-established autonomous center 
against the threat of expulsion. Our first article is about the backgounds, history and 
the current status of these fights.

We continue with a closer look at one - at least in the German-speaking world - new 
perversion supposedly emancipatory ideas of libertarian law. The, have long been known in 
the United States, a phenomenon now spilling slowly across the Atlantic. And how about the 
National-Anarchism, also make use Rechtslibert?re certain elements of anarchism, with the 
subtle difference that is not man is about emancipation from all the external and internal 
constraints in their aims, but the market.

The transformation can be done differently, the article shows "The new PKK". Although the 
struggle of the Kurdish population since the existence of many good reasons offered 
against systematic marginalization, oppression, repression, torture, and murder, in 
solidarity to explain it, so was the dominant organizational form of resistance - the 
Kurdistan Workers * inside party PKK - never umunstritten . The Maoist-Leninist 
orientation, strongly hierarchical Oraganisationsformen, the objective of a nation-state, 
the cult of the PKK "boss" ?calan, the use of intra-party critics * inside or more than 
questionable forms of fundraising made it - even in the situation of a decades-long 
guerrilla war with the Turkish military - with the time many hard to actively show 
solidarity with the Kurdish liberation struggle. The in recent years, however, takes place 
a change of thinking within the PKK, has less to do with the changing external perception 
(even though it is noteworthy that even a CDU deputy mitlerweile can bring open arms 
deliveries to the PKK from this week without post haste to's Konrad to be nailed 
-Adenauer-house.), but rather to a lengthy theoretical and practical development.

This is followed by a response to the article "On the psychologizing of nationalism" of 
the groups against capital and the nation from the previous edition of Gai D?o . This 
article deals with the nature of nationalist character in all its facets, so he does not 
commit the mistake strong enough to be made between nationalism and patriotism, as one of 
the central theses of the response.

Said groups against capital and nation then decide upon the analysis and discussion 
section with an analysis of "what Europe wants from Germany", in relation to the - just 
something the media neglected - European crisis policy.

In addition, you will find more posts, as the very personal review "I was only 15 ...", a 
report on the 3rd International Meeting of the Anarchist Study Networks in England, or the 
first part of a new series of articles on "Gustav Landauer's position on world war".

We hope you enjoy reading and welcome comments, criticism, praise, or your own posts.

Dauntless love

"When the night is deepest, is the day the next" sang clay, stones,
Shards almost 40 years ago. Whether Rio Reiser would see today still so remains to be 
seen; The fact is that the bad news every day
on offer, while the twilight on the horizon precious little
is. Despite U.S. air strikes and the great vaunted "alliance against the Islamic state," 
one of these is still on the rise and has enjoyed unbroken Sharia, stoning and purges. 
Take in Ukraine the fighting - despite large sanction - and ceasefire Roulette - continue 
to and while at Europe's external borders back several hundred Escaped
by boat accidents killed, Horst Seehofer dreams of his personal Frontex ring around 
Bavaria. With each (almost) double-digit results

for "asylum compromise 2.0" throw the Greens - to Yugoslavia war and Hartz 4 - the next 
pseudo-emancipatory ballast
overboard. And every day Groundhog.

In spite of all, there are also bright spots in the clumped Black

bpsw. about the diverse city political struggles that stattfi ligands currently in the 
North Rhine-Westphalia's Wuppertal, or the transformation of the PKK; away

The organizers

The Libertarian media exhibition is organized by a group of media, social and trade union 
activists from the Ruhr, the Rhineland and the Lower Rhine. The Limesse is a non-profit 
project. As early as 2010, we see ourselves as part of an oppositional culture against 
industry sponsored corporate and fair weather culture that found expression in the Capital 
of Culture project "Ruhr 2010". The organizers of the "libertarians media fair" 
participated in this context, inter alia, on MAYDAY EURO 2014 in Bochum.

Stations for Fair

The first libertarian media exhibition took place in 2010 in Oberhausen in the rooms of 
"compressed air" instead. Visitors as AustellerInnen were so excited that we - in spite of 
the trouble, which had prepared the organization - quickly decided a second libertarians 
media fair to organize. 2011 then the first Anarchist Book Fair was held in Mannheim, 
which gave us a little time. In 2012 we were with the two libertarians media fair to guest 
in the rooms of the "station Langendreer" in Bochum, one of the oldest and most agile 
socio-cultural centers in Ruhrgenbiet. 2013, was also the second Anarchist Book Fair held 
in Mannheim. 2014, we are now in Essen in the "Zeche Carl", where in 2002 at the 
initiative of the FAU "International Solidarity Conference" (i2002) has taken place. A 
fact that we love to mention. Without having discussed it with the organizers of the 
exhibition in Mannheim, thus creating a rhythm that we retain to this day. You can get in

Editorial

Hello people,

introduction, we would like to say a few words to the editorial staff. We strive in all 
cases to provide the Gaid?o also as a place of (anarchist) debate available. In most cases 
this works quite well, so there is also in this issue two (quite snappy) answers to 
earlier published in our article. Sometimes we get internally, despite extensive, 
sometimes laborious debates, not a consensus on how we should proceed with certain 
articles submitted controversial nature. In these cases, we're sorry for the author * 
inside, but also maintaining (and avoid a split) of the project is a good that we have to 
weigh.

For the current issue, which comes up next to a small review of some difficulty 
Commemorative Events in Ludwigsburg in particular with the calls to two important 
libertarian events in the coming months, which we would like to invite all of you: the 3rd 
libertarians media fair, the end of August in Essen will be held, as well as the 8th 
Balkan Book Fair, which has finally found its way to Bosnia-Herzegovina and determined by 
the local insurgency can muster a very recent reference point for most diverse discussions.

In addition to various book ideas, we would also like to point out the great article in 
the groups against capital and the nation in which the idea of the penalties and their 
relation to civil societies such as the West German is beautifully worked out to the property.

The series on migrating from anarchists to the Ottoman Empire is now the third part to the 
end and is enriched with all sorts of other reading recommendations on the subject. 
Finally, you can expect a poem and the description of a very interesting audio project 
that has arisen spontaneously and decentralized.

Lots of fun,

Your editorial of Gaid?o

(en) Germany, FdA/IFA - Against the unity celebration 2014 in Hannover! - Libertarian Action Frankfurt (Oder) (de)

 [machine translation]

On the third of October this year Hanover hosts the spectacle around the unit 
celebrations. Is celebrated on this date unexcitingly the date of formal adoption of the 
GDR by the FRG. In Hanover, the German government is set to mark the occasion in scene and 
can appreciate his politics, without the boozy charged nationalist sentiment 
Fu?ballfanmeilen. Either way - not a reason to celebrate. For this order, which is secured 
by the policy of the German state always means: poverty, exclusion and power constraint. 
---- Poverty ---- Anything that company provides and manufactures is, for us to have just 
for money. Ensure that it stays that way the German government provides. The ownership of 
houses, factories and raw materials remains exclusively reserved for few and is managed by 
economic interests. To create the best possible conditions for their own national economy, 
Germany is trying to also provide cheap labor as an administrator in addition to good 
infrastructure. This ensures the state by low benefits, low job protection and harassment 
in the office. It also provides through its police and judiciary that we can not just take 
what we need to live. And so we also have to sell ourselves to the worst job in order to 
afford the life.

Exclusion

For the people who can not even in their home countries and therefore try to emigrate here 
forth, the flight often ends already at the EU's external borders. Although repeatedly 
fleeing in an attempt to reach the hermetically sealed fortress Europe, die that convinced 
nationalists * inside this brutal policy agree too. For them fleeing are nothing more than 
potential cost factors for "their" nation, because "the" include "qua nature" not for its 
own national collective. Consequently, therefore, are also the people who made it here and 
that they can not be deported or should always ask their willingness to demonstrate and 
integrate kindly. Foreigners, they remain still and against racist attacks it protects not 
even the German passport.

Power constraint

Everyday cut and thrust in this society does not exactly ensure a caring sentiment among 
the people. Although we can not even decide for themselves about how and what is produced, 
we must also fight for more or less poorly paid jobs us now. Always a function of the 
profit interest of an employer, many give up their time and creativity in unpaid 
internships and temporary jobs, drag themselves sick to work or go under Hartz IV level 
work, in the hope of a reasonably secure existence.

Thus, these states are tolerable, a caring community will in the national collective 
simply imagined cause. So you can krumbuckeln still among the shittiest circumstances with 
pride for the state and capital.

During the third day of October, the people in Hannover will be associated with the 
progress of the nation and everything that in their view, is to identify necessary and we 
will be there. For the celebration of the nation is an attack on the good life and a 
mockery to society as we introduce ourselves: We want a society which organizes 
production, habitation, education not by capitalist interests, but to the needs of people. 
For a future without nationalism and nation, we go on the third day of October on the road.

For what is celebrating her poverty, exclusion, pressure to perform!

(en) Germany, FDA-IFA, 100 years first World War / Anti-militarist campaign (de)

Statement of the IFA: War is the lifeblood of the state ---- 2014 One hundred years after 
the beginning of the 1st World War organized the International of Anarchist Federations a 
campaign on the theme of war and militarism. Some groups from the Federation of 
German-speaking Anarchists and the Anarchist Federation Rhine / Ruhr have taken up the 
issue and run with other groups and events through local actions on the issue. Reason for 
this are plenty. Be it the growing militarization in society or the ongoing war belonging 
for many people around the world to the everyday suffering. ---- lot going there in August 
with numerous events of the Anarchist Federation Rhine / Ruhr . After the summer holidays 
planning groups from the Anarchist Network West * additional events on the topic.

On our special page war-the-krieg.fda-ifa.org you will find all the info & dates to the 
campaign.

Call: Today, as 100 years ago:
war war! For the social revolution!

On 28 July, the beginning of World War II marked the centenary, on August 1, the entry of 
Germany into the latter. Since the beginning of the year, showing an increased media and 
community interest in the First World War. Unfortunately, however, the coverage is often 
limited to the course of the war and a superficial processing of the causes. To date, 
socially perceived as uncomfortable causes of war are not or only insufficiently 
discussed. There are also people in every war, systems and ideologies that benefit by him 
and welcome, therefore, the call to arms and support. Be it nationalist and chauvinist 
great power fantasies in population or government, for-profit arms industry or the state 
aimed at the achievement of certain geopolitical goals or an organizing function within. 
In 2014, many of these relationships are not long gone, although the company would often 
think that this past is infinitely far away. Today, these aims are less openly 
communicated to the outside and displayed more cautious and diplomatic, if not sold as 
development aid.

Of course, the flagships of our 'representative democracy' the process of creeping 
militarization progress since 1914 and 1939 can not be denied, still driving in these 
days, as we face an increasing expansion of the competences of the German Armed Forces and 
the massive German arms exports, in context of a changed warfare and conscious of "German 
responsibility" before it. You do with her part, the ideal of a world without war and the 
military in another distant one to let distance.

Military is fundamentally contrary to its hierarchical structures and in its function of 
liberated society. In order to introduce our radical anti-militarist content in the broad 
public discourse we have organized ourselves with various anarchist groups in an alliance 
that from the first weekend in August in various locations in Germany Actions will perform 
and comrades * inside solicits on our actions or with their own to participate!

We want to show this anniversary to take this occasion it clear that the basis for major 
wars is also firmly established yet in our system and that the wars that take place in a 
globalized society today, are in a larger context to our own lives than we ourselves as 
people who want to admit in Central Europe in 2014 often live. Tags for this are the Nobel 
Peace Prize for the EU, NATO and Germany's role in the global warfare and enabling in the 
form of arms export, logistics, training.

We, as anarchists, will continue to fight against all forms of militarism, nationalism and 
capitalism. We want to sensitize and reconnaissance of the subject matter, to break the 
passivity to a certain extent and as always stay uncomfortable. We want to show that our 
idea of a society free of domination and our radical critique of the most important steps 
to prevent wars includes: The reduction of social inequalities, which must be accompanied 
by the removal of Mr. Sheep structures in our opinion. Only when we all can negotiate with 
each other our ideas of social coexistence at eye level, we will no longer feel pressured 
to perceived or real disadvantage to have to compensate by force of arms.

The degradation of war reasons we succeed with the dismantling of power structures and 
dependency ratios, break of systems such as fainting, fear of losing power and the feeling 
often represented in the parliamentary system is not to be clever enough to the politics 
that affects us to purchase.

From the 1st-3rd August will start our campaign with a diverse weekend in Dortmund. With 
many more readings, lectures, a rally, actions, a workshop. we want to send a clear 
message against war and for the Social Revolution!

(en) Germany, FAU Berlin, Press release: Solidarity action for laid-off union activist Warsaw (fr, pt)

Defend freedom of association ---- On June 27, 2014 demonstrated members of the FAU Berlin 
their solidarity with a trade union activist of the Polish base union Inicjatywa 
Pracowniza (IP), which was released in the course of their trade union activities. At 
Berlin Hauptbahnhof were employees and customers of the newspaper and bookstores "AD" and 
" Virgin "informed about the anti-union policy in Warsaw. The activists wore this highly 
visible T-shirts with the inscription "defend freedom of association". ---- The group 
Lagardere Services operates across Europe train station bookstore and duty-free shops at 
railway stations and airports. In Poland, this is done by the company Aelia Polska, which

(en) Germany, FAU, Press Release: Beautiful green world of work? Waste of money!

Rally on June 27: For better work in the B?ll Foundation ---- The basic trade union FAU 
Berlin calls for tomorrow, Friday, June 27, at a rally in front of the green Heinrich B?ll 
Foundation (HBS) on. The conflict has been brewing for over a year. For years, the HBS had 
organized the event reconstruction and the catering in their rooms on illegal temporary 
work. Meanwhile, the HBS was convicted in a case brought by the FAU process to deal with 
the colleagues concerned directly (Labour Court Berlin, 05.09.2013). Similar lawsuits are 
pending with the support of Verdi against the Federal Foundation for the Jewish Museum in 
Berlin; in both cases the workers were employed by the same subcontractors. ---- After the 
Berlin Labor Court has now, in the case of HBS fixed, precise conditions for the won 
appointments (03/20/2014), the Green Foundation has recently decided to appeal and to 
submit the dispute to the length. Thus, the publicly-funded Foundation will again spend a 
minimum of four-figure sum of taxpayers 'money for the legal fight against workers' rights.

The reason for the rally at 27.06. is the start of the congress "New generation 
construction contract" in the HBS. Just because the colleagues concerned rather belong to 
a younger generation than most of the HBS-workers, the question arises whether the green 
idea of a "new generation contract" is such that the younger work in temporary work and 
outsourcing.

For still sets the HBS - now apparently without breaking the law - on temporary work and 
therefore pay some colleagues clearly worse than others. Moreover, the HBS up in a sort 
Zerm?rbungsstrategie against the union active employees and FAU members. To operate two of 
the three Erstkl?ger, unlike earlier, without meaningful employment in a remote location - 
for just over two hours per week. Furthermore, four out of seven plaintive HBS employees 
received a total of six warnings in recent months. All this is not acceptable from a trade 
union perspective.

The complete call the FAU Berlin to the rally on 27 June, including the demands of the 
trade union base, is located on

(en) Germany, FAU-IAA - The labor dispute at the Swedish School of Berlin continues. -- No turning to Midsummer (de)

FAU defended on its members who were dismissed from the Swedish School in Berlin. On June 
20, none of the eight dismissals had yet been taken back and no one knows who will teach 
the children in the new school year starting in August. ---- Two weeks after the opening 
of the conflict, the school management is still not willing to the Free Workers Union to 
negotiate (FAU) Berlin - and contrary to other statements to the Swedish news agency TT. 
---- Rather, the director of the school, Lena Brolin announced on 16 June that there could 
be no recovery settings before not end of that period for the submission of wrongful 
dismissal. ---- Therefore, the FAU held on Friday, the traditional Swedish Midsummer 
another colorful rally outside the school and church buildings. The rally turned out to be 
as cheerful alternative Midsummer Celebration. "We have visitors informed about the 
outrageous human resources policy of the school," says Nina Matzek. The secretary of the 
FAU Berlin continues: "This also means that the colleagues were asking to waive their 
right and not to file a lawsuit - the dismissed apparently supposed to believe their only 
humble begging. We do not. "

Receives support FAU not only from parts of anxious parenting, but also by the Swedish 
trade union SAC base, protesting on 15 June at the Bishops' Conference in Uppsala against 
mass dismissal. The case also came in the Swedish public with great interest. To build 
additional pressure, the FAU has taken legal action against the school on June 17. FAU is 
ready to withdraw the complaint should the school - as required by the Berlin-based union 
- takes back the dismissals.

FAU is located since early June in a labor dispute with the Swedish school in Berlin, 
which belongs to the Swedish schools abroad. Reason is the termination of all eight 
teachers at the school, among which are also members of the FAU Berlin are located. On 
June 6, there was a first rally at a school festival, was played there, which also 
includes the popular pop song "Kom strength Lena" ("Come on Lena").

Editorial

Dear Readers,

during the DGB in the International Workers day of struggle his washed-out demands for 
"good work" propagated demand more radical organizations usually somewhat megalomaniacal 
the abolition of wage labor, and remember sometimes quite pathetic the Erk?mpfung of the 
eight-hour day. Although spreads on May 1 after removal and dismantling of the info object 
of idleness, is that day but all the signs of labor. Since it seemed attractive and 
necessary, even to address the scope of the work, which the proletarian pathos lacking 
something. In the care or custody work anyway little time to breathe and in the supposedly 
private sector, we can certainly not take time off from her to us. By the way, does the 
term "proletarian" from the Latin "proles", which means "the offspring" means. And who 
wants to be supplied in order to later provide the elderly can ...

In this issue we have mainly focused on the paid activities that are "the offspring of 
concern", particularly in the health professions. In March, nationwide - in some cities, 
with participation of FAU - strike at the bargaining with the federal government and the 
municipalities for higher wages, more vacation and a purchase guarantee for trainees in 
nursing and in other public services. After only three warning strike and four days of 
negotiations, the new tariff was decided. The result: a base amount of 90 euros, on 
average even 5.7 percent wage increase and a day more holiday at a maximum of 30 days of 
leave, duration two years. An underwriting guarantee there will be for trainees wherever 
they were trained "professionally" - whatever that means. However, increasing the night 
shift and load allowance in hospitals and in the transport refused to employers. Overall, 
this is not bad, but not really good.

In Lower Saxony, participated in the second day of the strike at the central rally in 
Hannover at least 20,000 workers. Educators, social workers, cleaners and nurses procured 
to air. In view of the chronic understaffing in their industries, they demanded not only 
new hires, but also a greater appreciation of their work. It remains unclear how much 
fighting spirit will be taken back to the factories with. After the privatization in the 
public sector, the outsourcing of tasks to external employers and the acceleration and 
increasing expansion of the fields of activity are far weggestreikt.

We wish to thank the Bekleidungssyndikat Hanover, Black Mosquito, DirAction, Grandioso 
shipping, coffee aroma Zapatista Collective, Roots of Compassion, black sock Mailorder, 
syndicate-A media sales and Fire and Flames, help spread the issue of direct action. The 
next issue is this focus on the theme "Education and state" continues.

Have fun reading!

(en) Germany, Stuttgart, FdA/IFA - Libertarian Alliance Ludwigsburg - Out to revolutionaries May 1st 2014! (de)

For the 10th year in a row a revolutionary May 1st demonstration will take place again in 
Stuttgart. Under the motto "Nothing is as it is ... Against war and capital: for 
solidarity and class struggle" start the demo by 12 clock on Palace Square. In this year 
we are again represented in the left center Lilo Herrmann on the demo and the subsequent 
festival from 14 clock. ---- About the Demo, the feast and other Events, can be found on 
the Alliance website ---- The group quite different has its own call verfassst which we 
support. ---- For the social emancipation - Consideration terror, state delusion and work 
fetishism ---- With this call, we want all people who want to go against capitalism, 
including its mechanisms of coercion on the road, the possibility of giving with 
like-minded people to take part in the demonstration. We are not looking to play off 
different positions relative to one another or to divide the demonstration content. We see 
the call as a theoretical complement to the previous analyzes, positions and perspectives.

As part of the pluralist left, we consider it necessary, away to mobilize all currents for 
a perspective of exploitation and domination. The capitalist system of exploitation, the 
(recurrent) economic crises and the reactionary nation-states do not allow continuing to 
reside with grave ideological struggles.

We do not believe that the social-reformist trade union apparatuses, together with their 
members become more radical such that the location logic and legitimacy of the economic 
and political system is called into question. On the contrary, the DGB also serves to let 
the pent-up frustration of his dues-paying Annex in orderly and harmless orbits run wild, 
a rejection, however, or even forms of struggle against the compulsion to work and 
capitalist exploitation is not offered as a means of trade union struggle. No party, not 
in the here and now, even in the distant future will give us an escape from the whole 
install, but instead of agitation, it needs the grassroots self-organization of all!

Job and salary is not everything! We sit next to the declining wages, the loss of jobs and 
the Hartz4 repression generally from the social paternalism. Rising rents and the constant 
increase in fares of public transport make everyday life more and more people to a daily 
struggle for survival, despite working and wage ratio.
, the threat of forced evictions, the exploding cost of living and the hopeless apartment 
search lead to social tensions in the escalation the ratios to a Mood of the uprising may 
lead.

The social contradictions and tensions are masked by the prevailing policy and some media 
and steered in the wrong lines, in the innocent as refugees, migrants or people in 
southern Europe the blame for ever more poverty, angst, falling wages and jobs is supplied 
postponed. Shortened and personalized critique of capitalism is reproduced not only by the 
rulers, but also some protests like the Occupy movement is now dead wrong and think in 
simple circumstances.

Our anti-capitalist practice and crisis politics, democracy and the power of action from 
below. Confident craft unions, anarcho-syndicalist unions, anarchist as council communist 
grassroots groups, and autonomous anti-capitalist centers and other forms of 
self-organization and self-government in exchange and cooperation overcome the previous 
portion struggles and their property bureaucracies. The experience, skills and knowledge 
within these structures, associated with positive experiences of demonstration, strikes 
and other forms of protest permit the perception of their own maturity and 
self-expression. This process awakens and unfolds the insurgent consciousness of the 
people in addition to the specific aggravations of existing conditions through grassroots 
work and intervention. No form of organization as the vanguard and deputy * in the 
exploited and oppressed, but the victims themselves have their fate and their future in 
their hands.

A free society without wage labor, exploitation, oppression, environmental destruction and 
other atrocities of the status quo can only be done by the overthrow of capitalism and a 
transformation of the economic system. We must all link up together, organize and work 
together. To a multidimensional anti-capitalist resistance to stand on its feet, the 
upsets all conditions.

Through the demo participation we want to send also transnational solidarity to all those 
affected worldwide who literally fight through environmental destruction, war, hunger, 
poverty and the crisis regime for their lives. Therefore, it is important to work here in 
Germany against capitalist states. Because the main enemy is at home.

Our goal is not only the abolition of the economic order, people, animals and the 
environment exploited and destroyed for profit benefits but the emancipation itself. The 
prospect of domination-free and liberal society, which annuls all relations of domination 
and suppression mechanisms, brings us at May 01, 2014 in Stuttgart on the road.

For a consistent anti-nationalism and the social exclusion of all rule the world.
terms of social and anti-authoritarian revolution. The Coming Insurrection we are all!

(en) Germany, The Anarchist Forum Cologne: An Email-Interview with the Anarchists from Syria

Anarchistische Forum K?ln (AFK): How are your relations to the FSA, the Regime and the 
Kurdish AutonomyGovenment? ---- We support the Syrian revolution for freedom and dignity 
against the dictatorship of Bashar Al Assad and the Baath Party. We support secular and 
democratic elements of the FSA and the right of all people to resist tyranny through armed 
struggle. But at the current time there has been an increase and domination of Islamist 
groups within the FSA which we cannot support and are cautious about their agenda (these 
are still considered separate from the counter-revolutionary extremist Jihadi groups such 
as ISIS and Jabhat Al Nusra which everyone in Syria oppose). We support the Kurdish right 
to self-determination and our Kurdish comrades in struggle.

We support Kurdish fighters which tend to be secular and democratic.

AFK : Are there any active anarchist groups in Syria? Since when do these groups exist? - 
What are their activities, how do they do it?

There are no active anarchist groups inside Syria. The Syrian anarchist collective of 
which we are part is a small group of people who are mainly outside Syria at the current 
time. We communicate, exchange information and support each other through private 
communications. We also have a public Face Book page where we try to inform people outside 
about the situation in Syria and the Syrian Revolution 
https://www.facebook.com/syrian.anarchists

Individual anarchists/libertarians inside Syria participate in the revolutionary 
activities in their communities and especially the local councils/committees.

We made contact and learn of each other and begin to work together since the start of the 
revolution. We hope in the future we can build on these activities and become more active 
as a collective.

AFK : What about anarcho-feminists?

There is a Syrian anarcho-feminist Facebook page but we do not think they are an active 
group and do not have contact with them. Our collective is made up of both men and woman 
and we believe women's struggle is central to liberation of Syria.
https://www.facebook.com/SYR.A.F.M

AFK : Where can we find libertarian activists in the different areas controlled by the 
Free Syrian Army, the Regime or the Kurdish Zone?

Libertarian activists are in areas under FSA and Kurdish control. They participate in 
their communities in revolutionary activities particularly through local committees and 
local councils.

AFK : Are there any areas, where anarchists are the majority or where anarchist ideas are 
being practiced (or where this may be possible in the future)?

Anarchists in Syria are very small in number and there are no organized groups. But 
anarchist practice has been at the heart of the uprising in terms of horizontal self 
organization of the people. This is strongest in the local councils and local committees 
which were founded by Syrian anarchist Omar Aziz. Autonomous, horizontal self organization 
in areas liberated from the State has been stronger in Syria than any of the other Arab 
countries. For more information see:
http://leilashrooms.wordpress.com/2013/10/20/

We hope that these experiments plant seeds for a more libertarian consciousness in the 
future and support the development of such activities.

Many revolutionary activists now have no faith in the regime, formal opposition and 
mainstream parties.

AFK : How did the growing violence change your socio-political activities?

The increasing violence has impacted the revolution and revolutionary activities as a 
whole. The situation in Syria now is a very hard one. There is massive destruction, 
instability and humanitarian crisis. With increasing militarization has come increasing 
Islamization and sectarianism. Many activists have had to flee the country- not only 
because of the persecution of the regime but also the persecution by extremist Islamist 
groups (counter-revolutionary forces) such as ISIS and Jabhat Al Nusra. It is increasingly 
difficult for people to organize- life now has become about survival. However, the 
revolutionary activities continue and there is still wide-spread support for the original 
goals of the revolution. We continue to support such efforts and continue to call for 
international solidarity for this struggle.

AFK : What do anarchists in Syria think about the role of unions and are there any 
workplace struggles at the moment?

We do not know about workplace struggles although in the early days of the revolution 
there were a number of strikes which had wide participation across the country. It was 
difficult in Syria because of the Baath Party domination of the Unions so there was little 
recent history of strong labor organization. The struggles are mainly in neighbourhoods 
and towns.

(en) Germany, FdA-IFA - Anarchistische Gruppe Neuk?lln - House searches at Black Mosquito (de)

Raid the LKA of anarchist mailorder "Black Mosquito" for alleged incitement to crime. 
Again stickers must serve as a special hazard. ---- Last Wednesday, our friend * inside of 
received Black Mosquito visit the unpleasant kind, especially from the State Security 
Division of the National Office of Criminal Investigation. This saw - now for the second 
time - the security of our esteemed Federal Republic by labels (yes, these small, colorful 
adhesive Dinger) at risk. More specifically, it was about a certain subject and in the 
subsequent "public incitement to crime". This of course did not stop during their "visit" 
they had the same shocked to discover several such extremely dangerous propaganda 
materials and confiscate immediately. ---- Our solidarity, thoughts and strength to go to 
the Black Mosquito crew, because it has taken a * n, meaning we are still, and each time all.

Below you will find the message of Black Mosquito.

Today, on 12.03.2014 a search took place in Flensburg.

At 10:30 were each about 5 officials of the LKA / K5 (state security) in front of the 
doors of the housing project mustard factory and the offices of the shipment anarchist 
"Black-Mosquito". The decision is determined against the allegedly responsible N. 
Accusation: "public provocation to commit criminal offenses." Specifically, it looks for a 
label with the word "Follow the cops back home". After the accused was on site, the search 
was carried out in the Gesch?fstr?umen of Black Mosquito. In addition, officials stopped 
outside the door of the mustard plant.

During the search, however, was apparently arbitrarily collected everything appeared to 
the officers as worthy of criminalization. Confiscated were stickers with the motives: 
"The area remains dirty", "ACAB", "Today, I paid nothing ...", "life for Lau", "Nazis 
clap" and "Today I'll go black ...". They also took two computers and a wireless adapter.

We have taken no Kund_innendaten or other business records!

The procedure looks for "a shot in the bush - to look at anything that moves" to make an 
uncomfortable online shipping silenced. In 2010 she failed once before .... Other 
political assessments will follow.

Affected is eine_r, we are all meant!
