Taking photos of Police to be considered a crime..

http://underclassrising.net/ | 28-01-2009 09:25 | Policing | Repression | Sheffield

I joke not..

The relationship between photographers and police could worsen next month when new laws are introduced that allow for the arrest and imprisonment of anyone who takes pictures of officers 'likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism'.

Obama: Regime Rotation

Nafeez Ahmed | 27-01-2009 19:15 | Analysis | Terror War | Sheffield | World

The arrival of the Obama administration will not fundamentally alter the course of military expansion accelerated during the Bush era. The origins of these policies do not lie uniquely in neoconservative ideology. While the election of President Obama may offer new opportunities for progressive forces to delimit the damage, their space for movement will ultimately be constrained by deep-seated structural pressures that will attempt to exploit Obama to rehabilitate American imperial hegemony, rather than transform it.

Day of Solidarity with the Palestinians and the Greek Anarchists and Anti-Authoritarians

Julia Smedley | 21-01-2009 19:52 | Globalisation | Sheffield

An International Day of Solidarity is being called for January 23, 2009, for the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the Greek Anarchists and other anti-authoritarian activists in Greece. There are many overlaps between these two struggles, and those similarities are explored below. The date of the demonstration is to also commemorate the anniversary of the Riots in the Warsaw Ghetto in Poland, during the period of Nazi Germany (1943), where 70,000 Jewish people took this city back, and held it for a long time before the Germans took over. The date and the atrocities exposed in this article are highly ironic, given that the Jewish people of Israeli have experienced a genocide of their own: the Holocaust.

Gaza: the nightmare goes on

Sheffield Palestine Solidarity Campaign | 21-01-2009 10:49 | Palestine | Sheffield

For the moment the bombing has stopped, although we hear that Israeli gunboats continue to shell from the sea and Israeli forces are able to recommence attacks at any moment they choose. The situation for all those inside the Gaza strip remains appalling; the siege has not been lifted and aid convoys continue to be impeded by Israel. More evidence of Israeli war crimes is being uncovered every hour and the response of our Government remains hopelessly inadequate. The lesson to Israel, from most of the world's governments, is that they continue to do whatever they like. Meanwhile there is a growing voice within Israel pleading to the world to support the Palestinian call for sanctions against Israel.

It was an outstanding and very moving event and the audio of the meeting is attached and some photos follow.

While Israeli children return to school, kids in Gaza sift through rubble to find bodies of friends

Israel in Gaza: Beyond Disproportionate

Mike Marqusee | 20-01-2009 00:12 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Palestine | Sheffield | World

Marching amid the 50,000 protesters in London bearing witness against the Israeli offensive on Gaza, I spotted a hand-made placard inscribed with the words of the radical Brazilian educator Paolo Freire: “Washing one’s hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral.”

Why Israel won't survive

Ali Abunimah | 19-01-2009 23:49 | Analysis | Anti-racism | Palestine | Sheffield | World

The merciless Israeli bombardment of Gaza has stopped -- for now -- but the death toll keeps rising as more bodies are pulled from carpet- bombed neighborhoods.

What Israel perpetrated in Gaza, starting at 11:30am on 27 December 2008, will remain forever engraved in history and memory. Tel al-Hawa, Hayy al-Zeitoun, Khuzaa and other sites of Israeli massacres will join a long mournful list that includes Deir Yasin, Qibya, Kufr Qasim, Sabra and Shatila, Qana, and Jenin.
