Jean-Marc Rouillan was sentenced on May 15 to 18 months in prison. The prison for words ! 
---- One can criticize the opinion he expressed about those who massacred hundreds of 
people in Paris on 15 November 2015. It is even evident that many could only find 
shocking, even revolting, his words about their "  courage  " . But it is only a few 
seconds in an hour of interview and Jean-Marc Rouillan also says, more explicitly, his 
rejection of the ideas in the name of which these assassinations were perpetrated and the 
model of society that goes with it. And, above all, should we confine all those who, at 
any given moment, say an idiocy ? ---- The fury towards Jean-Marc Rouillan is a political 
choice whose motivation is twofold: on the one hand, to continue more than 30 years later, 
to try to break an activist ; On the other hand, to use this example in the social war 
waged by a coup d'etat d'état, emergency laws, repression and state violence all azymuts.

Alternative Libertaire reaffirms that Jean-Marc Rouillan should not return to prison. He 
is now preparing his appeal in cassation. This is expensive:
Financial support, in which our organization participates, is organized ; The checks, to 
the order of Red Secours, should be addressed to: Ibanez - Boite Postale 110 - 75921 Paris 
Cedex 19.

The ecological deficit ---- The Cypriot (as well as the Palestinian) as an attempt to 
resolve - by partition - that the US is attempting to overcome with the overwhelming 
demands of the local superpower, Turkey, remains a sure-fire space for the settlement of 
American interests, and even after the NATO presence "For the refugee" after the miserable 
EU-Turkey agreement, with the Greek agent obeying US policy and extending this policy to 
the alliance with Cyprus, Egypt and Israel. ---- 2017 the Cypriot and the consolidation of 
the American presence - the ecological deficit  ---- This is an area of international 
interest and especially for what is happening around: the Balkans, the Middle East, the 
Mediterranean, Africa, the European South, in particular, is These areas with which to 
deal with the "gyroli". The libertarian worldview, impregnating the interest in 
acquaintance, understanding, communication, cooperation, and ultimately the common 
coexistence of the peoples, is a luminous and inexhaustible source of light for a world of 
equality, freedom, solidarity and justice. For a world where cultures of civilizations and 
peculiarities of peoples will become opportunities for regeneration and inspiration. For a 
world where man will work with nature and its creations.

Together we will be history, when favorable to our ideals and when against us. With us we 
will be news and events: sometimes encouraging for us and sometimes discouraging. With us 
it will be a special interest for ethnic-religious minorities, refugees and immigrants. 
Minorities, refugees and immigrants are the ones that can become channels of communication 
and cooperation among peoples, next to class struggles, ecological partnerships, in all 
efforts for equality and justice.

The "gyrogologists" from the libertarian gyro

The surety is that the US strategy for the consolidation of its sovereignty in the SE 
Mediterranean acquires a stable base in Cyprus. The French presence of the defense 
minister simply strengthens the blockade of neo-Ottoman expansionism with its allegiances 
(Russia). The presence of the "George HW Bush" flagship aircraft confirms, to a degree 
that we still can not know its duration, of stopping the Turkish "hubris" in combination, 
of course, with the new attempt to integrate the Arab factor (isolation of Qatar) Broader 
planning for the Central East and limiting Europe to the same role of the following.

The Cypriot (as well as the Palestinian) as an attempt to resolve - by partition - that 
the US is attempting to overcome and overwhelming the demands of the local superpower, 
Turkey, Remains a sure place for the settlement of American interests, and even after 
NATO's "refugee" presence has been consolidated after the miserable EU-Turkey deal, with 
the Greek agent obeying US policy and extending this policy to the alliance with Cyprus, 
Egypt and Israel. From "far away" Syria, which "hurt", as K. Cavafy would say, is only a 
model to avoid or otherwise apply. The US also consolidates the Cypriot sea, and in some 
ways extends the design for the desired Kurdish corridor from Iraq to Syria.

But next to all these deadlocks that are magnified in the absence of the horizontal 
movement that will set the bridges between the peoples, which will bring peoples 
cooperation inside and beyond the borders, Which sets the priorities for normalization of 
relations, which will put the center of resistance, democratic autonomy and the overcoming 
of capitalism, which will eventually mimic the council pattern of the Kurdish revolution 
in northern Syria, is also the ecological stalemate.

That is to say, making holes across the Mediterranean to defend our country with the help 
of US aircraft carriers is positive? Is resistance to Turkey's expansionism justifying the 
existence of a bloody ecological bomb? Is the maintenance and expansion of the industrial 
capitalist model through the development of this particular technology indisputable? If an 
overall plan is not put forward by the horizontal movement on ecology, imperialism, 
politics and the economy, when will it come?

Announcement of the Anarchist Political Organization on the attempted operation of the 
Messochora Y / Y dam and the struggle against the destruction of the Acheloos River. ---- 
The widespread destruction and plunder of the natural world at global level, with 
incalculable consequences for the entire planet, is the result of the wild and 
long-standing attack of the state and capitalism on exploitation and dominance in nature 
and human societies. Forest deforestation, pollution of the seas, melting of polar ice, 
climate change, greenhouse effect, shrinking biodiversity and the disappearance of a 
number of animal species are just a few of the overall marginal environmental crisis 
created by the state- Capitalist aggression. As far as Greece is concerned, this attack 
has escalated in recent years, with a number of disastrous, small and large projects, both 
in the countryside and in the cities. From Parnitha and Giona to the Northwest.

The case of dams and the diversion of the River Acheloos is an election commitment of all 
governments and ardent desire of the local capital, landowners and local actors of 
Thessaly from the '60s onwards. The completion of Pharaonic projects on the Acheloos 
Valley and the region of southern Pindos will lead to the final destruction of the river 
throughout its length, from the upper reaches of the southern Pindos, caging mountain 
valleys, natural ecosystems and human settlements (such as village Mesochora) in the mud 
of artificial reservoirs PPC until the vulnerable delta estuary of the Ionian Sea where 
unique wetlands formed.

Since the late 1980s, when the first pharaoh docks of PPC and diversion projects were 
being built, local residents showed no willingness to allow the destruction of their land 
and chose the decent road of resistance. It is characteristic that on May 30, 1990, 
residents of Mesochora occupied the huge dam of 150m of PPC, which threatened their 
village with extinction, and collided with the MATs.

Over the last decade, the work has been shaken at the central political level, and the 
resistances against the destruction of the river and the local community have also been 
rekindled. A series of political and social initiatives, ecological organizations and 
collectives have publicly expressed themselves against the dams and the attempted 
diversion of the river, conducting a multi-faceted struggle, at present setting up docks 
in the catastrophic upsurge of state and capital. The  Independent Meeting of the Struggle 
   Against the Dams and the Deviation of the Acheloos River was created in August 07, the 
mobilizations in Mesochora and continues today thanks to the disposal many fighters 
continue to resist largest development project for water management in Greece, with 
kinematic and self-organized features. Therefore, having the perception that the struggle 
should be conducted at the point where the disaster occurred the same every summer 
organized multi-day mobilization in Mesochora events and interventions demonstration in 
PPC dam and area tours.

Today, the operation of the works and the development of the struggle itself against the 
dams and the deflection of the river are at a marginal point. This is because the 
SYRIZA-ANEL government, fully aligned with the neo-liberal antisocial plundering policies 
of the natural world and the world of work, imposed by all previous governments, the EU 
and the IMF, which includes the completion of the Y / N projects and Their privatization, 
has completed the decommissioning procedures of the Messochora Y / Y dam from the total 
project of diversion, which has been temporarily blocked by the State Council so that it 
can operate immediately and independently.

As Anarchist Political Organization-Federation of Collectivities, we are hostile to any 
state-capitalist intervention in the physical world. That is, in any operation that aims 
to speculatively exploit it, pillaging and destroying it. Even when this intervention 
appears as an alternative, "green", sustainable, etc., it serves the same speculative 
perception of the natural world, expanding its control and exploitation in new fields, 
renewing the ideological framework of capitalist development and perpetuation The system 
of sovereignty of the state and capital on nature and man.

We stand firmly against the aggression of the state and capital, the PPC and the major 
construction companies that are launching the destruction of Acheloos and the local 
communities. We do not have illusions of landscaping the state-capitalist system of 
organizing society and trusting in the institutions that have been systematically 
cultivated by local actors and the ruling party that is currently taking initiatives to 
complete the disaster.

We support the mobilization of the Independent Match Meeting, realizing that the 
self-organized and uninterrupted struggle from the bottom is the only realistic prospect 
today to defend the natural world and society in general. This struggle must today, more 
than ever, strengthen the streets, expand socially, radicalize, and embrace all the 
individual resistances that arise at various points where state-capitalist aggression is 
emerging, setting a march against the growth drive , To a central choice of power, such as 
that of the dams and the deflection of the Acheloos River.

AGAINST THE LIFE OF THE NATURE AND SOCIETY FROM THE STATE AND CAPITAL

GAME FOR GREEN AND FREEDOM

THE AHELOUS WINS! LIVE THE MESSAGE! BREAKING THE DAM!

It follows the text of the anarchist group of Patras Disinios Ippos  (indomitable horse) 
about an action taken by this group and by anarchists of the city in front of the building 
of the Electricity Company, against the deviation of the river Aqueloo. ---- The imminent 
operation of the dam of the Electricity Company in Mesojora will convert the mountainous 
valley of the Aqueloo River in the south of the Pindos mountain range in an artificial 
swamp, eliminating (making disappear) the river and the village of Mesojora Tríkala, 
sinking it in the bottom of this swamp. At the same time, the operation of this dam opens 
the way for the materialization of the work of the diversion of Aqueloo towards Thessaly. 
This will have disastrous consequences for the whole area of central and western Greece, 
both for nature and for local societies, from the birth of the river in the Sierras de 
Pindos to its mouth in the province of Etolia and Acarnania.

Since the early 1990s the inhabitants of Mesojora have resisted the disastrous planning of 
the State and the Electricity Company in the area. For many years many fighters from all 
corners of the country are mobilizing in various combative ways against the dams and 
diversion of the river. Such mobilizations, events and interventions will be held this 
year, from 9 to 14 August , on the banks of the river in Mesojora.
On Thursday 20 July we made an intervention in the central building of the Electricity 
Company in Patras. We threw paint on the facade of the building, threw flyers and painted 
slogans on the wall of the entrance.
That the prey of the Electricity Company collapses in Mesojora. Long live the town. Long 
live Achilles.

Event of solidarity then manifestation Vérité-Justice for Clément on June 3 in Paris. ---- 
Four years ago, on June 5, 2013, our comrade, Clément Méric, a trade unionist and 
anti-fascist, was murdered at the age of 18 by extreme right-wing activists. ---- At a 
time when the National Front is once again recording important scores in elections, at a 
time when racist and xenophobic discourse is spreading and the trial of its aggressors is 
approaching, it is our duty to demonstrate, Again, our anger. ---- We will demonstrate to 
pay tribute to our comrade, and to affirm the actuality of his fights. But this fight 
against the extreme right is not reduced to this manifestation, it takes shape daily in 
the struggles that we lead. ---- By carrying out a project of social transformation, by 
fighting for a critical and open education for all, for emancipatory work, we are pushing 
back the extreme right.

By fighting against redundancies, company closures, and the rights of employees, we are 
pushing back the extreme right.

By developing international solidarity with peoples struggling for self-determination and 
against colonialism, we are pushing back the extreme right.

By combating sexism, racism, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, homophobia, transphobia, all 
forms of discrimination and the system of oppression, we are pushing back the extreme right.

By organizing ourselves to make our most powerful weapon live, solidarity, we are pushing 
back the extreme right.
We therefore call on all those who share the values of progress and social justice to join 
us during the day of mobilization and homage to Clément and his struggles.

Protest against changes in the judicial system, Warsaw 24.07.2017 ---- A leaflet prepared 
by the Warsaw Environmental Commission of OZZ IP distributed during the demonstration 
against changes in the judicial system in July this year. ---- Organize yourself! In 
schools, workplaces and wherever possible! Let us build universal social resistance in the 
name of full democracy - economic and political! ---- We oppose the Sejm's legislation 
passed by the Sejm on the National Council of Judiciary, on the system of the common 
courts and on the Supreme Court. We do not agree to the concentration of power in the 
hands of nationalists and extreme conservatives. PiS '"social" face is a mask underneath 
which is the continuation of the neo-liberal policy of predecessors. We will not allow the 
authoritarian right to be assimilated by taking over courts that will condemn workers and 
workers, evict pavilions, and secure police brutality even more so than they have so far. 
We will not tolerate the use of legitimate and mass protests of society as an election 
campaign for the people who have led to the present situation.

We act against these laws not in the interest of the constitution, the tripartite power, 
or the interests of privileged civil servants. All of them and the rules that they make 
and enforce, only on paper are to defend the interests of working people. The Polish 
State, with its "independent" yet court, sentenced the Labor Initiative activist Marcel 
Gray to a fine for defending the rights of workers and workers from Cegielski's factories 
in Poznan. Anarchist activist Lukasz Bukowski was sentenced to 3 months in jail for 
blocking eviction. Through the months and years of the trials, the struggle for the rights 
of those whose lives did not flow into the luxuries, honors and privileges of today's 
bizarre leaders of the "opposition" has prevented the struggle.

Leszek Balcerowicz, co-author and co-contractor of the neoliberal reforms of the 1990s, 
bears a share of political responsibility for the current events. The distribution of 
Polish society, the inequality and the dominance of the satisfied elites that sold the 
foundations of the Solidarity program are the main products of the "great success of 
transformation", and thus the source of the success of the authoritarian Law and Justice.

We are against the actions of the Government of the Law and Justice, because its actions 
threaten us all - people working. Entrepreneurs who exploit us on a daily basis will be 
able to handle under the wing of today's "freedom fighters" from the liberal party and the 
CODE. Frasyniuk, Schetyna, Petru, Kyiv - all of them were, or are still, apprentices of 
wild capitalism, enriching the exploitation of ordinary people.

We will not listen to them, but we will protest against the anti-social and 
anti-democratic attacks of PiS.

We will not defend the courts and the law on which they condemn us. We want justice to 
repair and social control over the judiciary!

We will not defend the state that sends us the police. We will fight for a real, 
bottom-up, democracy!

We will not defend the interests of liberal elites. We will fight to meet the needs of all 
workers and workers!

We will not be against these elites in a row with nationalists from the PiS, who are 
building a police state. We will respond to the fascist threat!
