The MACG thus defends Julian Assange, not because of his politics, which have curdled and are now quite suspect, nor because we consider him innocent of the Swedish accusations. The US ruling class has no objection to his politics, because they are riddled with the sort of people with whom he has been collaborating. And neither do they have any objection to sexual assault – if they did, Donald Trump would not be President. The United States wants to punish him, not for any crimes he might have committed, but for his good deeds. The MACG defend Assange for those same good deeds. Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, was arrested on 11 April when the Ecuadorian Government invited British police into their London embassy for that purpose. Initially charged with breaching bail, he was quickly also hit with a US charge of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion. He has since been sentenced to almost the maximum term for breaching bail and the process for extraditing him to the United States, which could be a long one, has begun.The United States wants Assange because Wikileaks stands against the entire apparatus of national security in that country and has published much damaging information about its murderous and undemocratic activities – not least the Collateral Murder video that made Wikileaks famous. Wikileaks is so dangerous to the reputation of the CIA, the US military, State Department, the FBI, the major political parties and so many other components of the State in the US that the capitalist class want that organisation shut down for good and for Assange to be made an example of to deter potential successors. Accordinly, though the charge on which Assange has been arrested is one that has a maximum penalty of five years imprisonment, it should be expected that other, heavier charges are in the works. In publishing the crimes of Uncle Sam, Julian Assange performed a great service for the working class and the oppressed peoples of the world and on that basis he must be defended against US attempts to seek retribution against him. He is, however, no saint. Firstly, he is accused of sexual assault in Sweden. While it is clear from published facts that Assange’s sexual ethics are poor, the Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group is unsure whether his actions amount to a breach of Swedish law. Accordingly, we believe that he should go to Sweden to deal with the accusations and clear his name or face the consequences. Secondly, Assange’s tactics during the US election campaign of 2016 and his political statements since are quite unsavoury, while some of the political associates he has been cultivating during his time as a fugitive in the Ecuadorian Embassy have been extremely dangerous. We therefore believe that, once he is out of the clutches of the United States, his future activities should be watched with great care until he can explain himself as a free agent. The MACG thus defends Julian Assange, not because of his politics, which have curdled and are now quite suspect, nor because we consider him innocent of the Swedish accusations. The US ruling class has no objection to his politics, because they are riddled with the sort of people with whom he has been collaborating. And neither do they have any objection to sexual assault – if they did, Donald Trump would not be President. The United States wants to punish him, not for any crimes he might have committed, but for his good deeds. The MACG defend Assange for those same good deeds. ASSANGE SHOULD GO TO SWEDEN NOT TO THE US Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group *Article from the The Anvil Vol 8/3, May-June 2019.

Παραφράζοντας το εθνικιστικό κρεσέντο «ας ξεβρομίσει» λοιπόν η Αθήνα από τη δυσωδία της αστυνομικής αυθαιρεσίας και αστυνομοκρατίας, «ας ξεβρομίσει» η Ομόνοια από το άντρο ανθρωποκτόνων που λέγεται Α.Τ. Ομονοίας, ας «ξεβρομίσει» από όσους εμπειρογνώμονες τους συγκαλύπτουν πιστοποιώντας πλαστές αιτίες θανάτου κρατουμένων του Α.Τ. Ομόνοιας. Α.Τ. Ομόνοιας: Όπως λέμε υπερβάλων ζήλος για χάρη της ομοιογένειαςΣτις αρχές Φεβρουαρίου ο Εμπουκά από τη Νιγηρία πεθαίνει κάτω από αδιευκρίνιστες ακόμα συνθήκες στα χέρια μπάτσων που υπηρετούν στο Α.Τ. Ομόνοιας. Η σύντροφός του και μητέρα των 2 ανήλικων παιδιών του τον αναζήτησε από την πρώτη στιγμή, μιας και οι προσαγωγές για εξακρίβωση στοιχείων είναι μέρος της καθημερινότητας πολλών μεταναστών. --- Ωστόσο αν και γνώριζαν από την πρώτη στιγμή τι είχε συμβεί στο σύντροφό της, την παρέπεμψαν στο Α.Τ. Κυψέλης και από εκεί πάλι πίσω στην Ομόνοια, όπου την συμβούλεψαν να υποβάλλει δήλωση εξαφάνισης. --- Αν δεν είχε μεσολαβήσει δικηγόρος η γυναίκα πολύ πιθανόν να μην μάθαινε ποτέ που βρίσκεται. --- Πολύ πιθανόν να παρέμενε η σωρός του σε ένα νεκροτομείο ως άνδρας αγνώστων στοιχείων. --- Δεν έχουν περάσει έξι μήνες από τη δολοφονία Κωστόπουλου και η αστυνομική βία φτάνει στο αποκορύφωμά της. --- Η χρήση χημικών στην πορεία για δικαίωση στον Εμπουκά δεν είναι αρκετή για να φιμώσει τις φωνές που ζητούν διαφάνεια, που ζητούν να οριστεί εμπειρογνώμονας επιλεγμένος από την ίδια την οικογένεια του μετανάστη. Οι όχι και τόσο «τυχαίοι» θάνατοι στο Α.Τ. Ομονοίας δεν παραξένεψαν ούτε το Υπ.Προ.Πο, ούτε τα ΜΜΕ, ούτε τα ειδησιογραφικά πρακτορεία, δεν έγιναν πρωτοσέλιδα, ούτε αφιερώματα σε εκπομπές υψηλής τηλεθέασης. Ας μην συνηθίσουμε στο θάνατο γύρω μας γιατί η αποκτήνωση και ο κοινωνικός κανιβαλισμός δεν θα αργήσουν να εξαπλώσουν τη σήψη του συστήματος ακόμα και στα φαινομενικά πιο υγιή κομμάτια τούτης της κοινωνίας. Αυτοί οι θάνατοι είναι από το σώμα της τάξης μας, τα φερόμενα ως σώματα «ασφαλείας» και προστασίας του πολίτη, επικαλούμενα την δημόσια «τάξη» και «ασφάλεια» εξουδετερώνουν ανενόχλητοι και χωρίς επιπτώσεις , όσους , όσες, όσ@ δεν πληρούν τις προϋποθέσεις συμβατότητας με την κανονικότητα που έχουν ορίσει. Η Ομόνοια ανήκει στους κατοίκους της Αθήνας ανεξαρτήτως φυλής, φύλου, σεξουαλικού προσανατολισμού, καταγωγής, θρησκείας, εθνικότητας. Παραφράζοντας το εθνικιστικό κρεσέντο «ας ξεβρομίσει» λοιπόν η Αθήνα από τη δυσωδία της αστυνομικής αυθαιρεσίας και αστυνομοκρατίας, «ας ξεβρομίσει» η Ομόνοια από το άντρο ανθρωποκτόνων που λέγεται Α.Τ. Ομονοίας, ας «ξεβρομίσει» από όσους εμπειρογνώμονες τους συγκαλύπτουν πιστοποιώντας πλαστές αιτίες θανάτου κρατουμένων του Α.Τ. Ομόνοιας. Χέρι που σηκώνεται πάνω σε μετανάστες, πρόσφυγες, άτομα ΛΟΑΤ και κάθε καταπιεσμένο, θα φροντίσει η τάξη μας να το ξεριζώσει. Η κανονικότητα και η εμμονή για διατήρηση της “ασφάλειας” μυρίζει ανθρώπινη σάρκα. Θέλουμε αυτοδιαχείριση, πολυπολιτισμικότητα και ελεύθερη έκφραση κάθε είδους σεξουαλικής προτίμησης. Η Ελευθεριακή Συνδικαλιστική Ένωση Αθήνας καλεί σε συμπόρευση με τους αγώνες για δικαίωση της οικογένειας του Εμπουκά Αλληλεγγύη στη σύντροφο του Εμπουκά που μάχεται δυναμικά Αλληλεγγύη στους/στις μετανάστες, μετανάστριες αυτής της πόλης.

Very few South Africans are aware that currently in the north and eastern parts of Syria (Rojava) a revolution as progressive, profound and potentially as far reaching as any in history is taking place. There, an alternative system to the state, capitalism and patriarchy is being built and it holds the potential to inspire the struggle for a better, more egalitarian Middle East and indeed world. Over the course of almost 7 years, the people of Rojava – mainly through democratic militia – have fought off the many dangers that have been posed to the Revolution, which have included the forces of the Syrian state,the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and the Turkish state. The experiments in Rojava have been heavily influenced by the vision of Democratic Confederalism, which has a central role in the Kurdish national liberation struggle in Syria, Iran, Turkey and Iraq. The first person to outline the vision of Democratic Confederalism – a form of libertarian socialism – in the early 2000s was one of the key leaders in the Kurdish national liberation struggle, Abdullah Ocalan. For almost 20 years, Ocalan has been imprisoned by the Turkish state on the island prison of Imrali. The Turkish state imprisoned Ocalan for his role in the Kurdish freedom struggle and as the leader of the Kurdish Workers’ Party – which the Turkish state claims is a terrorist organisation. In this regard, it must be noted that the Turkish state has, over the last several decades: engaged in systemic ethnic discrimination and cleansing against Kurdish citizens of Turkey; used its military and intelligence forces to harass, jail and kill thousands of Kurdish people living in the south of Turkey and in the process, razed over 3 000 Kurdish towns to the ground; and, regularly launched military operations in northern Iraq and Syria targeting Kurdish liberation forces and civilians. For 10 years Ocalan was the only inmate on the island. Under the neo-fascist regime of Erdogan, Ocalan has been kept in total isolation since April 2015 and has been denied any visitations, including by family members and lawyers. Since late 2018, hundreds of people involved in the Kurdish national liberation struggle have been on a hunger strike demanding an end to the isolation of Ocalan. In January 2019, the Turkish state also began to make plans for the invasion of northern Syria to end the Rojava Revolution. The Turkish state fears the Rojava Revolution will spread into Turkey itself and they do not want an experiment in direct democracy, feminism, ecology, anti-statism, and anti—capitalism to succeed. Already in 2018, the Turkish state invaded part of Rojava, Afrin, and are now unleashing plans to invade the rest of north and eastern Syria. These plans have been condemned by the peoples of the Democratic Federation of Northern Syria (as Rojava is now known) and they have called for a genuine international peacekeeping force to be deployed to prevent the invasion. As the International Labour Research and Information Group (ILRIG) we support the Rojava Revolution, including its goals of creating a feminist, anti-capitalist and stateless society. We offer solidarity to the comrades involved in the current hunger strike and support their calls for the Turkish state to end the isolation of Abdullah Ocalan. We stand with the Democratic Federation of Northern Syria and oppose any invasion, including the current threat by the Turkish state to undertake military actions against the Rojava Revolution. Furthermore, we call on other progressive movements in South Africa to support the Rojava Revolution and the associated struggles for Kurdish national liberation, and for the South African Government to recognise the Democratic Federation of Northern Syria and its right to be free from the threat of invasion from any aggressive state forces. If comrades wish to offer support and solidarity they can also contact the Kurdish Human Rights Action Group based in Cape Town at admin@khrag.org
