CONCENTRATION: MUSEUM 11:00 a.m. and demonstrations by the Assembly of Anarchists blocks 
for Social and Class Emancipation ---- AGAINST STATE AND capitalist barbarity ---- The 
all-out attack of the state and the bosses and the constant introduction of new burdensome 
conditions of exploitation and oppression express overall violent restructuring of the 
state and the capitalist mode of societal organization. ---- The current political 
management of power, has undertaken both seamless continuation of political subjugation 
and impoverishment of society and the restoration of the regime in crisis conditions. 
After the illusions fostered, for the existence of a "human capitalism" that can meet 
social needs now collapsing and unable to draw further consent to the designs, 
increasingly reveals the true antisocial person of state and capitalist powers. Those 
resistors failed to neutralize through kapilefsi, assimilation and integration, those 
struggles failed to stop because of frustration and defeatism climate brought about in 
society after the cancellation of the hopes she nourished, now seeks to annihilate 
increasingly based and more the repressive mechanisms.

ORGANIZATION AND STRUGGLE FOR SOCIAL REVOLUTION AND THE ANARCHY libertarian communism

 From our side, the side of the unemployed, the workers, the poor, the plebeians history 
of social and class resistance, the force of fights that break out globally across the 
bleak reality imposed on us internationally and our faith for that another world is 
possible is what they show us how can we break the isolation, how to fight back the fear 
and frustration. Away from the institutions, parliaments, elections, bureaucratic trade 
union leaderships, their hope traders and intermediaries of the class struggle are 
preparing our counterattack against the rulers. Because what we have to gain is a result 
of the broad, organized on the basis of radical and militant struggles of from below.

Only the total subversion of the state and capitalism, social expropriation of wealth that 
we ourselves produce and sucks a caste of rulers and the social revolution for a new 
common ownership society, solidarity and freedom can vindicate their aspirations and 
actual social needs oppressed and exploited.

The poor, plebeian THE LAYERS, the exploited
have nothing to lose MORE

No more pointless to overstate the obvious. All political management options in the 
context that we know have collapsed, because the whole system is bankrupt. Nothing to 
promise, no better day is not in sight for the poor. The parties simply alternate 
promoting even worse measures, while the sacrifices that workers do ever course is not enough.

Features and launched a general strike on December 8, the government now is the best ally 
of the EU Hawk and international organizations plunder and oppression of the people, 
engaged in new projects, which will complicate even more the workers' living conditions 
and the unemployed. In complete harmony and coordination with national policies in Greece 
Schauble, raises again the scarecrow of "leaving the euro" to achieve even more effective 
"reforms" aimed at the extermination of the poor and oppressed.

The Left that supposedly would express the hope is forever dead. Across Europe there is 
nowhere a formation with progressive and left attributes that have put even the slightest 
mound in the onslaught of the ruling. Instead, the center-left and the new left fully 
adhered ideologically and practically the chariot of modern totalitarianism, which impose 
worse conditions by force, with the blackmail of unemployment, by ensuring banks' role 
Panopticon audits, the protection of interests market, against any acquis labor forces.

Europe's shift towards the extreme right is the next stage of totalitarianism expression. 
Regenerated by the dominance of capitalist ideology, ie the absolute personalization of 
without competition limits resulting in the expression of dozens of forms of social 
cannibalism, the extreme right is to gather political all elements of extending the scope 
of inequality: racism, anti-immigrant policies, inclusions young , camping societies, 
intolerance, nationalism. Unfortunately forget those who try to express these "values" 
that all nationalisms, everything comes to an end miriness, signaled by the generalized 
war among the poor, the death, the ultimate dissolution and pain.

Therefore the only way to resist the bleak future of complete disintegration of the labor 
and social gains, the overwhelming defeat of the collective consciousness is to fight 
through collectives exokommatikes and antierarchikes, antiracist and direct democratic, 
which will be set up in the communities, from small workplaces to universities and 
neighborhoods of the metropolis, with a view to their federalization under the joint 
project of libertarian communism, the basic condition that the claim of another society, 
economic equality and political freedom.

On 23rd November 2016, the Treasury announced in the Autumn Statement that they "will ban 
fees to tenants as soon as possible". So, right now fees are still legal in England & 
Wales, and it is not very clear when they will be outlawed. ---- Meanwhile, here is some 
information about what fees are and how to challenge them. ---- What are fees? ---- Fees 
are an amount of money you pay to the letting agency as a "service charge". Letting 
agencies normally charge you "administration fees" for preparing your tenancy agreement, 
checking your references, making up the inventory, checks on guarantors, immigration or 
credit, and more. ---- Usually, fees are paid at the beginning of the contract, but 
sometimes tenancy agreements include some clauses that may force you to pay expensive 
costs during your tenancy or at the end of the contract, such as having to pay to renew 
your contract, or for a professional inventory or a professional clean at the end of the 
contract.

How can you challenge the fees?
Letting agents should clearly display all of their fees on their website and in their 
offices. Often they don't do this, so it's worth asking for a breakdown of their fees 
early in the process. Their obligation to clearly display their fees was established by 
changes made in 2015 to the Consumer Rights Act. If agents do not publish all their fees, 
they can be fined up to £5000.

To varying degrees, all of these fees can be disputed before you sign the contract. You 
can challenge these fees at whatever stage of the process you feel comfortable to; in our 
experience, it can sometimes be best to challenge them after you have paid your up front 
rent and deposit, and relatively close to, if not on, your moving in date. This way, the 
letting agent or landlord is then committed to you moving into the property, too. It's not 
a great bargaining position, but it's something.

What if my letting agency wants to increase my rent?
Probably, your landlord / letting agency will try to increase your rent in the coming 
months. In that case, you have to be aware that for a periodic tenancy your landlord can't 
normally increase the rent more than once a year without your agreement. If you have a 
fixed-term tenancy your landlord can only increase the rent if you agree. If you don't 
agree, the rent can only be increased when the fixed term ends.

Fierce clashes have broken out in central Athens between police and groups of rioters 
after a peaceful march. The gathering marked the anniversary of a teen's death at the 
hands of police in 2008.

Dozens of youths wearing protective gear threw Molotov cocktails, flares and firecrackers 
at riot police, who responded with tear gas and flash-bang grenades, the Greek 
Athens-Macedonian News Agency (AMNA), reported.

This Monday (05/12) more than 200 people gathered in front of the Greek consulate in 
Barcelona to ask for the freedom of Lola Gutiérrez, arrested since last November 27. 
There, a letter with thousands of signatures in support of our companion was delivered to 
the consul. Signatures were collected in less than 24 hours. ---- The consul received a 
delegation of comrades from the CGT Council in the Barcelona Deputation and Lola's family, 
who explained to him about the situation of our companion and demanded that she be 
released and repatriated, the consul promised to take our requests to the Greek embassy . 
---- We appreciate and appreciate the participation of comrades in the act, taking into 
account the summons at the time. ---- Our CGT companion, Lola Gutiérrez, has been detained 
in Greece since last Sunday, November 27, after her arrest at Athens airport, accused of 
helping a Kurdish refugee flee the war and probably death.

We celebrate that there are people who by their active involvement before the injustice 
act effectively, risking their own life and their freedom. It turns out that our companion 
is one of those many supportive and generous people who have the courage to face 
repressive regimes such as the Greek, a country in which she remains arrested for being 
considered an "enemy of the State" and can only be released when extradited and arrive in 
Barcelona .

The European Union's agreements with Turkey to serve as a parapet for immigrants and the 
vexatious treatment in Europe for those fleeing hunger, wars and death can not have any 
other answer than to disobey all the laws that prevent people who Seek refuge to be saved, 
through actions that allow to help all those who want to continue having a future.

Illegals and offenders are part of the governments of countries that have pledged aid and 
practice the immediate return and internment of immigrants. However, we still remember the 
shameful pictures of European leaders and their promises to help refugees.

 From the CGT we will continue to demand the freedom of our companion Lola Gutiérrez, we 
want it in Barcelona NOW, and we do not accept excuses of a "progressive" Greek government 
but that it will imprison those who are in solidarity with the less favored.

Panic at the head of EDF, dissension within the government, unions fear ... the nuclear 
project of construction of an EPR in Britain may be betting too, the one who will ruin the 
electrician. .. and with it the state and taxpayers of the Hexagon ... the nuclear mirage 
dissipates, and the addition will be catastrophic. ---- Mired in its EPR projects in 
Flamanville and Olkiluoto (Finland), the management of EDF since 2012 seeks to export two 
reactors in Britain, in the central Hinkley Point. A project that has already generated a 
real novel of protest. ---- Challenging the construction is done on several levels: safety 
of installations, sustainability of partnership with the Chinese operator CGN (or CGNPC, 
China General Nuclear Power Group), EDF finances, even the possibility of completing the 
project, which issue pay the bill ... the project is well exposed on all sides, by the 
unions as well as by the Board of Directors, through engineers or residents of the project.

Extra cost of 30 billion compared to renewable

But why EDF management as it takes to do this job? We must remember that buying British 
Energy (UK nuclear operator) in 2008, EDF had opened a market to build, and at that time 
had revive its growth on the EPR. In 2013 the British government made a power purchase 
offer to EDF at full price, up to 120 euros per kWh against 40 euros in France.

This tripling of the price (which will fall on the British taxpayer) is actually a 
disguised subsidy to a project that otherwise would not be viable. And it is based on the 
advantageous mounting EDF embarked on the project of two new reactors at Hinkley Point. At 
the official launch of the project on September 29, the CEO of EDF announced a record 
profit rate of 9% for these reactors. Only thereafter the Board of Directors revised the 
rate to 8%, and again, still lower bound foreseeable setbacks, such as the delay in 
delivery[1]. As this site may be even more complicated than others already late, 
transnational partnership obliges it hard to believe that the event is not thereby 
budgeted. And as usual, nor the future decommissioning of the plant or waste management 
are included in the calculation of earnings.

DC network Sortir du nucléaire

The central Hinkley Point already has two reactors (Hinkley A and B, B being the end of 
the activity), and suffered a strong challenge after a fire and a leak in 2012. A group 
Stop Hinkley is active for closure of the plant, and finds himself at the forefront of the 
mobilization against the construction of the EPR[2]. One of its main battle axes is to 
denounce the government's propaganda, which said the central safe, economical and ecological.

Opponents emphasize the additional costs for consumers, which will be 30 billion compared 
to the price of renewable energy. As for safety, there as everywhere, statistically, the 
next serious accident will occur in twenty years, and EDF has topped the list of potential 
candidates. Level ecology, the argument of nuclear "decarbonised", without emission of 
CO2, is false, it only serves to maintain the central part of the "green growth".

Fifty reactors by 2050

Fortunately for us, EDF promised to start construction after the completion of 
Flamanville. The company also has a slight liquidity problem, a debt of 37 billion euros, 
so no one knows how it will finance the new reactors (24 billion euros!), Except the 
state, perhaps, that will inject 4 billion in capitalization and shares by May 2017. and 
then there are the associations appeal to the courts.

Read also:

"Global warming: nuclear solves nothing"
Energy security: Yes, we can get out of nuclear power in five to ten years
EDF's goal is to build a fifty 2050. Either the renewal of the French park reactors, more 
than the English park. But it is a headlong rush widely denounced as EDF is profitability 
crisis, particularly due to the overall decline in electricity prices, which was not 
really expected any more than the current overproduction (energies renewable are 
productive, self-consumption is fashionable).

This is because EDF has more than enough to finance other programs it has negotiated a 
lifespan of central forty years now and beyond, with the proposed "major overhaul" before 
" to upgrade "central to extend.

But remember that this very risky bet will cost 100 billion euros to the group in the 
years to come[3].

EDF, nearing economic collapse, would do better to focus on takedowns. Because the only 
achieved so far, the site Brennilis (Finistère), lasts since 1985, and there has yet to 
fifteen. The logic of irresponsible oversizing inherited from the first wave of reactors 
should it be pursued?

The Hinkley case, and all the renewal of the nuclear fleet reveal the bankruptcy of an 
unsustainable economic model without state subsidies. And now this model driven by others, 
remain debt and radioactive waste. Greatness of France.

At least four guards involved in the tear gassing and other incidents of abuse while Dylan 
was in Don Dale are currently working as guards in the Darwin Correctional Centre and are 
continually tormenting Dylan. Some have threatened to have him bashed if he speaks out 
about his treatment. ---- Australia: Don Dale torture victim Dylan Voller plans hunger 
strike over threats of abuse by guards ---- Dylan Voller, a young Aboriginal man at the 
centre of the torture scandal in the Don Dale youth detention centre, is threatening a 
hunger strike over threats of abuse by guards in the Darwin Correctional Centre, says his 
mother Joanne Voller. ---- Dylan Voller, who has just concluded a visit with her son in 
Darwin, says Dylan is terrified of what will happen to him if he gives evidence to the 
current Royal Commission sparked by the Don Dale scandal, which is due to hear his 
testimony in the coming week.

At least four guards involved in the tear gassing and other incidents of abuse while Dylan 
was in Don Dale are currently working as guards in the Darwin Correctional Centre and are 
continually tormenting Dylan. Some have threatened to have him bashed if he speaks out 
about his treatment.

Dylan continues to be held in prison, despite being eligible for parole since October 
2015. His family has consistently called for his release from prison, to allow him to heal 
from his ordeal and speak freely with the Royal Commission.

Dylan has previously requested a transfer to Alice Springs prison, to be away from his 
abusers and to be closer to his family. But he told his mother that guards are now making 
verbal threats that transfer to Alice Springs would increase his chances of getting bashed 
because of a lack of CCTV facilities in Alice Springs prison.

Dylan's mother Joanne and sister Kirra were told to remove t-shirts that read ‘Free Dylan 
Voller' when they visited him this morning in prison.

Joanne Voller will travel to Sydney on Friday to address a major protest being organised 
on Human Rights Day, December 10 - Unite with Aboriginal People's Defense of Human Rights 
- to press her demands for freedom for her son and the closure of youth prisons.

Dylan Voller said:
"I have never seen my son so scared in all of his life. He has said he will start a hunger 
strike to fight for his own safety. They are saying he may not even be allowed to attend 
court to speak with the Royal Commission and may have to give evidence via video link, 
under the eye of his abusers. He is too scared to do this."

"The government promised change with this Royal Commission, but my son has just been put 
in further danger. When will this nightmare end", concluded Ms Voller.

Padraic Gibson from UTS: Jumbunna Research Media has been assisting the Voller family with 
a campaign for Dylan's freedom. Mr Gibson said:

"How can this Royal Commission have any integrity when the Northern Territory government 
is allowing key witnesses to be threatened with violence if they speak the truth? We need 
to see urgent action from Chief Minister Gunner. He promised a change in approach to 
corrections, but has refused to even meet with Dylan's family to discuss his ongoing abuse."

"Many of these guards should have been sacked long ago for their torture of Aboriginal 
children. The fact that they remain not only employed, but tasked with guarding Dylan, 
speaks volumes about the continuing racism and disrespect for Aboriginal lives that 
characterizes the ‘corrections' system. Dylan must be set free immediately", concluded Mr 
Gibson.

Selection of articles on the murder of anarchist Michael Israel, together with volunteer 
Anton Leschek, while fighting with the YPG against ISIS fascists in Rojava. They were 
bombed by Turkish airplanes. ---- The US volunteer with the YPG militia who fell fighting 
ISIS in Rojava this week was an anarchist and a member of the Industrial Workers of the 
World. He fell victim to a Turkish airstrike which was directed at Kurdish fighters who 
have been beating back the religious fascists of ISIS. ---- Last August, shortly after 
retuning to Rojava, Mike Israel had posted ---- "With Manbîc liberated, YPG and YPJ are 
one step closer to cutting off ISIS from their ability to transporting supplies and people 
from their support base across the Turkish border. Once this supply route for them has 
been cut off, ISIS will be completely isolated.

For those of you in the West, this means they will no longer be able to transfer their 
personal with ease into the European states.

Rojava has taken the lead in making the lives of those of you far beyond their borders 
safe from these fascists. Please don't forget the sacrifices Rojava has made in fighting 
back and containing ISIS gangs."

Two weeks later he wrote

"Nice one USA. After YPG push ISIS out of Manbîc and liberate the area, you stand by while 
the Turkish state makes an incursion into Syria and make demands that Rojava's forces now 
withdraw from all ground they've freed from the enemy."

International YPG Volunteers Fighting ISIS Killed by Turkish Warplanes - Updated

http://kurdishquestion.com/article/3662-international-y...dated

People's Protection Units (YPG) volunteers, American Michael Israel (Robin Agiri, 27) from 
California and German Anton Leschek (Zana Ciwan), were killed by Turkish warplanes on 24 
November according to another international volunteer fighting alongside the pair against 
the Islamic State group (IS/ISIS/ISIL), west of Manbij.[updated].

On his Facebook page, the international volunteer, who was amongst the group killed by 
Turkish warplanes wrote:

"We were taking a small village when we got hit by Turkish jets in the night. Two of my 
friends, Anton and Michael were killed among many others. I'm staying to finish out my six 
months. Fuck Erdogan and Fuck Turkey."

The YPG have informed both men's families.

Another of Micheal Israel's comrades posted the following message on his Facebook page:

"It's with a heavy heart that I learn today heval[friend]Michael Israel has passed away 
fighting ISIS as a volunteer with the YPG in Rojava. Michael was a man of extremely 
powerful convictions; an inspiring, idealistic fighter who struggled unlike any other for 
a better world, not just for a better Kurdistan and a better America. He spent his whole 
life fighting systems of injustice that deny peace, and trekked the states spreading 
awareness against the Iraq war. He conferred his experiences and lessons from both Syria 
and the states with everyone. He died the very way he lived, and his legacy is an example 
of how a true revolutionary should be. History will exalt him as one of the greatest of 
our generation, like many others. He taught me a lot, I'll never forget him. Rest in power 
heval"

According to reports Michael Israel was a socialist (updated) and member of IWW 
(Industrial Workers of the World).

In a Facebook post on 11 August 2016, Israel, who had spent two stints in Rojava wrote:

"I am back in Rojava again and will be here for the next several months to do my part in 
defending the revolution.

The Rojava struggle is the most dynamic and ground breaking revolutionary movement of our 
time. I am determined that it is the job of leftist allies and internationalists to rally 
behind this movement, to help build it up and learn from it. Things that we may have only 
dreamed of in theoretical writing are acted upon in Rojava, modified and adapted to their 
struggle and made real. Rojava is doing this all and reorganizing society despite the 
chaos and destruction of 5 years of civil war. The gains of the revolution under such 
austere and harsh conditions is truly remarkable.

Now that I am back in Rojava, I know all my needs will be met. Here I will never be in 
want of basic necessities for lack of money. I, like all others in Rojava, will never go 
without food and water, clothing or a place to rest my head at night. The movement takes 
care of people here.

That is not to say though that Rojava and the rest of Syria do not need help though.

I'm calling on all of my friends and comrades to learn about the Rojava revolution and how 
they have been leading the charge in the war against ISIS fascists. I'm calling on all of 
you who are able, to do your part in helping or sending donations so that this revolution 
may become stronger with the aid of the international community."

Michael Israel becomes the 5th American YPG volunteer to be killed in battle against the 
Islamic State in Rojava but the first to be killed by Turkish fire.

Anton Leschek is the 4th German to be killed in the ranks of the Kurdish forces.

It is not known how many other fighters of the YPG, a leading force in the multi-ethnic 
SDF which launched the 'Wrath of Euphrates' operation to liberate Raqqa from IS, were 
killed in the aerial attack.

MMC Statement on Michael Israel and Anton Leschek, Killed in Turkish Airstrikes in Syria

http://kurdishquestion.com/article/3663-mmc-statement-o...syria

The Manbij Military Council has made a statement about the two internationalist volunteers 
who died in Turkish airstrikes recently.

Michael Isreal (Robin Agiri) from the U.S. and Anton Leschek (Zana Ciwan) from Germany 
were killed by Turkish airstrikes on 24 November 2016.

The statement said both men had remained in Manbij following the liberation of the city 
from the Islamic State group on 15 August to "assist local Manbij units defending the 
region. Especially when an occupying actor had entered the scene of the Syrian war, these 
volunteers who had not tolerated terror and oppression, could not accept Turkish 
occupation threatening Manbij and northern Syria."

The statement said Michael Israel had joined the revolution in July 2016 with the 
motivation "to protect the peoples' revolution of Rojava and fight the enemies of the 
struggle."

Anton Leschek was described as a "fearless youth from Germany" who had joined the Manbij 
Military Council in September 2016.

Leschek is quoted as saying, "It's a true fight in Rojava for me, because here people 
neither surrender to tyranny nor to terror. I will support this democratic revolution to 
the end."

The statement confirms that both men were killed in Turkish airstrikes in western Manbij 
on 24 November where "the council continues to put up a fierce resistance against 
occupying Turkish army and its affiliated terrorists."

Turkey, alongside Islamist Free Syrian Army (FSA) groups, launched the Euphrates Shield 
Operation 10 days after the liberation of Manbij from the IS, on 24 August.

Although the operation was allegedly launched to oust the Islamic State group from the 
area it is has increasingly targeted Syrian Democratic Forces' positions, which the MMC is 
a part of.

Commentators have said Turkey wants to prevent Kurdish gains in the region as well as 
weaken the democratic system being created in northern Syria.

Kurdish military figures have claimed Turkey aims to create a mini Sunni state in the 
areas it has occupied.

Recently Turkey President Erdogan stated they had entered Syria to "end Assad's rule."

second protest against Zaha Hadid Architects director Patrik Schumacher who suggested 
solving London's housing crisis by getting rid of regulations, privatising all public 
space and scrapping social housing. ---- They say this would be a fascist social cleansing 
of the city which would force out the working class and abandon it to the wealthy. ---- 
Schumacher's ideas have been widely disowned by the architectural profession and the

condition in the workplace and is part of the long list of "accidents" that have resulted

anti-labor measures, razing every social class and acquis, in creating a modern working 
middle ages.

The only way to be able to respond to this attack we are experiencing is the path of 
social and class struggles. The same workers, the unemployed, youth, natives and 
immigrants, knowing our real needs, we must take life in our hands, to organize and to 
fight collectively self-organized and adiamesolavita in any society and the workplace, in 
schools and colleges, workplaces, neighborhoods and streets.  With base unions and 
workers' initiatives to assert that belongs to us, away from the trade elites who have a 
complementary role to the employers.

To connect a couple and-demand games for permanent and stable job for better salary and 
better working conditions, access to social goods, housing, healthcare, education, to 
defend labor and social rights, for the protection of nature, with comprehensive and 
topical social and political demand to overthrow power world and libertarian 
transformation of society.

* In the morning Thursday, December 8, during the strike path, we performed a symbolic 
attack with paint in the central store of Everest in Patras. Hands of employers are dyed 
with the blood of the murdered worker.

** We support the announced mobilization of emporoupoallilon, workers, the unemployed and 
youths against the abolition of the Sunday holiday.

  Do not live like slaves! Do not get used to death!
