Following on from the last international squat and autonomous spaces meeting in Dijon, France last November, comes the second meeting: this time on the outskirts of Berlin. We see this as a meeting not just to exchange tactics and ideas, or to reflect on the April action days (and plan new ones?) but to share in our new projects, fights and victories: to redraw the battle lines. To achieve durable exchange and solidarity on an international level. read full story / add a comment

Asked what he meant, he replied: "To lose the human condition is to become an animal" read full story / add a comment

Today we witness the international media reporting on the fighting in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere. Few of the journalists have ever served in the military and few of them can understand the overwhelming fear, terror and daily brutality that turns men into merciless killers. In our nice sanitised view of war, soldier kill other soldiers and do not gun down prisoners with their hands up. The intensely savage battle for Fallujah, an American soldier was filmed shooting an apparently unarmed and wounded insurgent. In Haditha, a squad of American soldiers ran amok and cut down men women and children with automatic weapons and grenades. Such behaviour is nothing new in war. read full story / add a comment
