REPORT FROM WARSAW - POLAND Few days ago, on 16th of May, in the evening, an antifasciscist activist was attacked by two nazis, with clear intentions to kill him.

Maciek fell on the ground and was kicked by the nazis for a while, with them shouting "We'll kill you, you leftist motherfucker!". read full story / add a comment

This was a contribution to Indymedia 4th March by Redjade Coming To Grief by Hans Johnson Like the breeze of late winter, a single word, unspoken, has rippled through the recent funerals of several US service members returned from Iraq. Families and military presss officers have different reasons for tight lips on the topic. But Suicide among Iraq soldiers, 29 soldiers by recent count, says volumes about drooping morale and raises further doubts about how accurately the toll on service members is being measured and how much more they will bear' We all are delicate human beings...........bureaucracy can always be sorted out......life cannot be given back. read full story / add a comment

Abu Baker Deghayes’ brother Omar has been in Guantanamo Bay prison for five years. The Irish Anti War Movement has organised a tour of meetings next week where Abu Baker will speak about the illegal kidnapping, detention and torture of his brother Omar Deghayes. Omar and his family left Libya 1986 after his father, a democrat and trade unionist, was assassinated by Colonel Gaddafi's regime. In 2001 Omar travelled to Afghanistan where he met and married his wife and had a son. When war broke out they moved to Pakistan. Omar was arrested by bounty-hunters and sold to the US Military. The only "evidence" for his arrest was a video from the Spanish authorities allegedly showing Omar. But experts have confirmed that the person in the video isn't Omar. While in prison Omar was tortured using pepper spray in his eyes, so much was used that he is now completely blind in one eye. The US authorities also allowed Libyan interrogators to interview him. They threatened him, saying, "In here I cannot do anything, but if I meet you later I will kill you”. read full story / add a comment
