Soziedad Alkoholica cleared by Spanish Judiciary. The logo "is similar" but that is "art".

The Basque political situation is not all about the "Peace Process". Many other things happen there too.

For years the group "Soziedad Alkoholica" used a logo on their albums of anarcho-punk garage angst music which was quite obviously a take on the logo used by ETA.

Their disks were withdrawn from sale by the largest department store chain & they were brought before the Judiciary to be investigated for "incitement to or glorification of terrorism". They've been cleared. They sing songs about victims too. ... read full story / add a comment
Marchistas Listening to Morales in La Paz Yesterday (Photo Bolivia IMC)
international / anti-capitalism Thursday November 30, 2006 - 01:10 by D'other   image 1 image
Hurriedly returning from negotiations with the Shell executive in Holland, Evo Morales last night granted accession to a law of agrarian reform leading many of La Paz´s morning tabloids to carry headlines claiming he had declared war on the latifundia dominating the country's system of land distribution. In Santa Cruz and Beni, regions dominating 80% of the Bolvian economy, as little as 14 families hold over 3m hectares of unproductive grounds in their hands. This new land reform facilitates removing this land from idle hands and redistributing it to campesinos, similar perhaps to legislation facilitating the placing of unproductive factories into the hands of workers in Argentina. The passing of the law was accompanied by the arrival of marchistas from across the country as an excercise in popular support for the land reforms. ... read full story / add a comment

A committee has already been appointed to oversee implementation of the report. ... read full story / add a comment

A visit to Rossport focuses the mind on the issues at stake.

Come and see for yourself: this project is fundamentally flawed, needs to be, and will be reconfigured.

A renewed effort at informing ourselves and friends & the wider public is needed, to create broader awareness of the issues here.
