Protecteur Europ?en des Donn?es : vives critiques conc la proposition de la Commission eur pr la mise en place des "fronti?res intelligentes"

English below


Cher.e.s tou.te.s,

Le Protecteur Europ?en des Donn?es ?met de vives critiques concernant la proposition de la Commission europ?enne pour la mise en place des "fronti?res intelligentes" , notamment le principe du "Entry-Exit system" qui permet de relever les 10 empreintes des personnes qui entrent avec un visa en UE pour permettre d'alerter lorsque leur visa est expir?. Possibilit? est envisag?e de donner acc?s ? cette ?ni?me base de donn?e aux forces de polices et de contr?les aux fronti?res. 

Le Protecteur des Donn?es est particuli?rement critique, et notamment le fait que la mise en place du syst?me requi?re l'?change de donn?es personnelles avec les pays non-membres de l'UE dans le cadre de proc?dures de renvoi des individus hors de l'UE. Cela inqui?te d'autant plus le Protecteur des Donn?es que "beaucoup de pays tiers n'offrent pas le m?me niveau de protection des donn?es qu'en UE".

Dear all, 

the European Data Protection Supervisor is strongly criticising the Commission's Smart Borders proposal. This proposal includes the "entry-exit system" that allows the collection and storage for the 10 fingerprints of migrants who enter the EU with a visa, so that the authorities can be alerted about potential overstayers. The proposal foresees the possibility for law enforcement authorities to access this additional database. 

Another criticism applies to relation with non-EU countries:

"the routine functioning of the system will imply a need to exchange personal information with third countries in relation to the return of individuals. The EDPS recommends that the specific conditions and purposes under which those countries may be granted proof of the identity of their nationals needs to be substantiated, all the more important as many third countries do not offer the same level of data protection as is offered in the EU."

Contacts Eastern Europe, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus‏

Hi everyone,
a friend of mine an me will move through eastern europe, greece, turkey and maybe cyprus this fall, winter and spring.
We're especially interested in communal living, self-organization, gardening and antirascist/ solidarity/ no border activism.
If you can help us with contacts we'd be very happy!
Hanna & Lukas

urgent! police arrested refugee activists in Vienna, deportation tomorrow‏

I forwarded this message to different antiracist lists in Germany. If
the rumours about Berlin and a plane by Air Berlin (not verified yet!)
should be true, it could be an organized charter by Frontex. Air Berlin
has been the main airline involved in charter deportations from Germany
to Serbia and Macedonia and there have been several protests against
this airline recently:

Is there any possiblity to figure out if it is true?
All the best,
marion

(en) Britain, Stuff the Banks ? Take Action This Saturday - by Bristol Anarchist Federation

Crowd outside a Starbucks that was shutdown during our last UK Uncut action 
http://bristolaf.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/uk-uncut.jpg?w=300&h=224 ---- Despite 
everything people have achieved throughout our history, society is more unequal now than 
it has ever been before. ---- Whilst hundreds of thousands of people in the UK rely on 
foodbanks, and millions around the world starve, the wealthiest millionaires 
(&billionaires) continue to accumalate yet more wealth ? and mostly avoid giving any of it 
back as tax. The capitalist system is rigged, and if we don?t smash it soon it?s going to 
smash us. ---- We?re here to say we DO mind the gap between the richest and the rest of 
us, they are certainly not ?in it together? with us.

We will turn a branch of HSBC (notorious for their tax avoidance schemes) into a bank that 
serves the rest of us ? a food bank.

Bring flags, placards, noise, friends and food to share (or if you can?t spare any just a 
hungry stomach ? we?ll be bringing lots).

Meet up at Queen Square 1pm on Saturday, look for the flags & placards

See you in the banks!

(en) Organisation Communiste Libertarie - Courant alternatif #232 - leftmost / fascism Thus forehead forehead forehead (fr)

Rarely the boundaries between the different parties of the extreme left or chapels (or to 
the left of the left) have been porous in recent years. ---- There are those who leave 
(the NPA or the Greens, for example) or move (the Alternative, anti-capitalist left ...) 
their organization to the Left Front because they see it as the only credible opposition 
to power pole and the bourgeoisie. Or leaving the Left Party while remaining FDG, which 
spin the Greens or return to PS judging M?lenchon too sectarian. Others who resist the 
pull of the cartel M?lanchonien and try to be another pole on the left, theoretically less 
attracted by the union of the left. ---- Left Front ---- Obviously the pivotal role played 
by the FDG indicates a sacred retreat for revolutionary tendencies brought to determine 
vis-?-vis a media tribune and scroll to the Sixth Republic in the middle of a forest with 
tricolor flags and caps Phrygian!

The NPA itself, "clean", spent 7/8 000 members within 2000 was found in this case, even if 
it also attempts comparisons with other smaller organizations and less " Republican 
"including libertarians.

These back and forth does not generally based on big ideological debates, as the 
differences between all these formations are ultimately pretty thin this point of view. We 
did it little stuffed on analyzes of contemporary capitalism, the meaning of the rise of 
struggles in the world or their characteristics, both frames of reference used are quite 
similar and very conventional. Then one might think that these shifts reflect a reduction 
of sectarianism (each reclassification is always on behalf of the union) and, in any case, 
the decline of the parochialism that has always characterized the field of party political 
movement workers and are the result of local conditions or personal journey. This is 
partly true, but it is not the point.

While actually running and ultimately to a single question: when will he join the PS and 
under what conditions? Indeed, as always, every call (including some libertarians) at a 
given time is to rally whatever the formula adopted "in his nose", "lip" or "satisfied 
with Agreement "," the first or second round, "" doing it without calling "or fills 
hypocrisy, calling to block one of the two candidates without call for a vote for the 
other. For example, in late May 2013 the alternative, in a resolution on the 2014 
municipal, state that they call in the second round "to Stop the right and the extreme 
right." They add: "The Alternative will not participate in executive led by PS except for 
guarantees of their independence," without specifying what course would include these 
guarantees ... all doors remain open and that is where the sense of rallying to FDG.

In fact for new entrants to Fdg it is to go faster towards the establishment therein of a 
new party, a "left alternative" that would include the Alternative, anti-capitalist Left, 
part of the United Left , FASE and convergence and alternative ... hopefully in the coming 
months. It is to rebalance the Left Front with a third thief out of the hegemony of the 
two heavyweights, such as the PC and PG.

Obviously, the choice of possible tactics to lead to this result relies primarily on 
maintaining or conquer elected positions: MPs, councilors, mayors, councilors, etc.. But 
not only. Is also taken into account the interest of the organization or to continue 
current and best located next to its competitors / friends. Not the interest of the 
working class, the proletariat, workers, the oppressed, but the interest of the group as 
small as it is. Which, in their minds, is probably not contradictory because the interest 
of the political organization merges with that of the exploited. And finally it separates 
us most from this policy area.

Front anticapitalist

Further left is the concept of anti-capitalist front that again. The critique of 
capitalism, conspicuously absent from politics for several decades scene reappears 
gradually. The word is not obscene and that's good. The NPA, reduced several thousand 
activists, can not, by itself, aspire to create a competitive pole FdG and he must find 
allies to try to be. However, it does not completely rule a possible alliance with FDG, 
shown by the phraseology after his last Congress on the question of unity put forward the 
idea of ??a "left opposition" which leaves open all interpretations.

The idea of ??an anti-capitalist forehead forward by Libertarian Alternative (AL), among 
others, met some echoes within the NPA, and indeed this may be a good idea, but if not be 
reduced to a cartel as has been the case hitherto. Several public meetings were held in 
Nantes in Agen, Toulouse, Marseille and is sometimes with the CNT and proletarian Way. But 
each time the number of these do not actually exceeded the total membership of each 
organization. It is again a figure of overvaluing the role of political organizations. If 
the idea of ??anti-capitalist front is rather welcome in the current context (although the 
word itself front is debatable), rather than consisting of a cartel of organizations it is 
preferable that it is IN the living structures social movements and not next. The 
challenge is not to proclaim the anti-capitalism as a separate ideology, but look how it 
can be linked with real struggles much larger than the sum of organizations manner. 
Otherwise known as anti-capitalism comes in strategic and tactical guidance in the 
structures (committees, AG, coordination ...) born of the struggles themselves which 
intimately involved anticapitalist and implemented at the base by the players who lead the 
fight . Structures in which different policy options must be proposed and discussed. It 
means to be clear about our opposition to the pro-capitalist trends without breaking the 
unit, if it exists. It was called the workers' democracy and it is not easy we can be 
certain. It is basically to give a tangible and usable which must not remain a mere 
ideological posture content.

Antifascist Front

We reported a reluctance vis-?-vis the term "front" to the extent that he remembers very 
signified the covenant of carp and rabbit reflects a final class alliance ... in favor of 
the bourgeoisie. But recent events have not clarified the thing! quite the contrary. We 
now talk of anti-fascist front. Will he create next fronts anticapitalist and why not 
sexist or fronts against the cost of living?

In an article about the work of fascist groups, proletarian Way poses quite the problem 
clearly and contradictions that can cause these fronts rightly called "Republican", "we do 
not consider that the activity of these groups testifies a "fascist threat" in France 
today. Unlike the 30s, it was under the banner of "democracy" (PS as UMP) that the 
bourgeoisie implements emergency measures: emergency anti-terrorism laws, criminalization 
of trade union action ( PS refused amnesty) policy of "selective immigration" expulsion of 
Roma camps ... In the fight against the far right, there are two ways: We reject that 
which binds us to the exploiters, France imperialist bourgeoisie to oppress us. The PS is 
not our ally in the fight against fascism. Today we do not ask the State to dissolve the 
far-right groups. The prohibition of these organizations will do nothing to disappear, but 
would suggest that the state would protect society while these measures prohibitions turn 
against us when we are too noisy. We also reject the "republican front", which only serves 
to force us to ally ourselves with the political representatives of exploiters "This brief 
summary of the positions at which the libertarian communists and more broadly any 
revolutionary could / should subscribe!

And yet he did not have to wait long after the murder of Clement Meric for the traditional 
fascist frontism resume top and some groups and organizations that theoretically reject 
any Republican reprecipitate forehead there happily, as evidenced by the call National 
events for June 23 to which are associated governmental organizations working towards 
racist foreign policy is known, along with revolutionary groups, a few days before, were 
attacking just as the recovery. If the call to protest was signed by an impressive list of 
parties and associations mixing "recovery" and "recovered" from the previous day, social 
liberals and staunch anti-capitalist proclaimed, the result does not compromise the 
compensation! The number of protesters was not reduced if each component had called and 
expressed his side explicitly on its foundations. The "front" can be done in the street, 
but not a minimum and on paper. In fact, these long lists of signatories simply indicates 
that a political impact is often measured by the number of empty shells which indicate 
that day for the sole purpose of existing media-making part of the consensus. Illusion and 
inefficiency.

A Villeneuve sur Lot is the same type of front, also called "Republican" by the left, 
which has been put forward to "block the road to the National Front." A sleight of hand 
that will be used increasingly saw the bright future that is promised to us in duels with 
the FN, but work less.

Because if we criticize anti-fascism and anti-FN as being first a political identity is 
not a revolutionary purism which we do not have much to do, but because it is doubly 
ineffective! First, because it totally obscured the causes and roots of this battle and we 
are precisely in the front (government policy, for example). Secondly, because the union 
in a front is always on the lowest common denominator is that of the least hostile to the 
enemy forces and hate equally the "left-wing extremism" and seize the first opportunity to 
show it.

Ras fronts!
