“This US decision to let Erdogan invade Syria will have disastrous consequences not only for the Kurds but for the entire international community.

People have created a variety of self-organized spaces such as housing infrastructure, social medical centers, community kitchens, open parks and public spaces… …

The word genocide is simple enough to understand, whether in Nazi Germany, Rwanda, Bosnia, Palestine, Pol Pot’s Cambodia or in West Papua.

Describing the horrifying methods used in these countries to eliminate people by state-sponsored activity is mind-boggling. The genocidal activities of the colonial government of Indonesia against the people… …

For two thousand years, the peoples residing in Zomia — the mountainous region that stretches from the Central Highlands of Vietnam to northeastern India — have fled the organized state societies in the valleys. Far from being ‘remnants’ left behind by civilizing societies, they are “barbarians by choice”, peoples who have deliberately put distance between themselves and lowland, state-centers.

NO NAME DIVIDES US NO NATION UNITES US PROLETARIANS HAVE NO MOTHER COUNTRY The resurgence of the “Macedonian issue” has been a rare opportunity for all kinds of nationalist and fascist scums to take up space in the public discourse and try to promote their murderous political plans.

Νετανιάχου, για την τριμερή Συνάντηση Κορυφής μεταξύ Ελλάδας, Ισραήλ και Κύπρου. Στην τελευταία αντίστοιχη συνάντηση, το Νοέμβριο του 2015, ο Α. Τσίπρας είχε φροντίσει να χαρακτηρίσει την κατεχόμενη Ιερουσαλήμ ως «ιστορική πρωτεύουσα» του Ισραήλ, νομιμοποιώντας έτσι τη θηριωδία των ισραηλινών δυνάμεων κατοχής.

Anarchists are against nationalism; everyone knows that. Instead of solidarity across borders and anti-hierarchical antagonism within them, nationalism engenders loyalty to the state with its armed forces and public symbols, encourages the oppressed to identify with their compatriot oppressors, scapegoats minorities, and pits workers of different countries against one another in economic competition or open warfare. Opposition to nationalism is an almost trivial starting point for anarchist politics, reflected in… …
