SOLIDARITY WITH PRISONERS IN CHILE ON HUNGER STRIKE SINCE 21.2.11

On August 14 2010 an absurd spectacle of suppression took place in the cities of Santiago and Valparaiso in Chile that resulted in the prosecution of 14 people, 8 of whom are held facing charges for all the armed, explosive, and incendiary attacks that took place during the last three years against the state and capitalist targets inside the country. The only evidence is their political identity.

Andrea Urzua, Camilo Perez, Carlos Riveros, Felipe Guajardo, Francisco Solar, Monica Caballero, Rodolfo Ratamales, Venicio Aguillera, and Omar Hermosilla began a hunger strike on 21/2/11 demanding their release as well as the abolishment of the anti-terrorism law.

Through this struggle they make clear that they are not willing to be submissive in the cages of democracy. The arsenal of laws possessed by all modern totalitarian regimes are a tool for the elimination of anybody who is a conscious enemy of authority.

Our solidarity and passion for freedom we share cannot be contained byborders.

FREEDOM TO THE PRISONERS OF 14A AND ALL OTHER PRISONERS OF THE SOCIAL WAR, EVERYWHERE

SOLIDARITY IS OUR WEAPON

Sydney Stop the Power Sell-off Rally
Saturday 5 February 11am
Top of Martin Place near Macquarie St
Join the loud chorus of protest against the NSW government's sale of electricity retailers and trading rights for generators that will have severe impacts on household bills, the energy workforce and the environment. The $5.3bn sale is a disastrous deal for the people of NSW. The Upper House inquiry has lifted the lid on some of the details of the transaction despite the best efforts of the Premier to shut down the inquiry and scare off potential witnesses. Join the call for the sale to be reversed.
Speakers confirmed to date include: Charmaine Crowe, Combined Pensioners and Superannuants Association (MC), David Shoebridge Greens NSW MP, Pepe Clarke, Nature Conservation Council, Sally McManus, Australian Services Union and John Kaye Greens NSW MP.

Free Jock Palfreeman action, 12pm Sat 16th October, Tarpeian Lawn, Botanical Gardens.
---
Jock Palfreeman is a 23 year old Australian who had the courage to stand up against 16 Nazis on a night out in Sofia, Bulgaria. He saved others and defended himself, but his reward was a 20 year prison sentence. In December 2007, Jock witnessed a gang of fascists attacking two men of Roma ethnicity in Sofia. Jock went to the aid of the Roma men, putting himself in the middle of the attack. The Roma men were able to escape, but the gang continued their attack on Jock. Following the fight, one member of the gang was killed (Andrey Monov) and another injured (Antoan Zahariev). Jock maintains that he tried to escape the violent gang, and was forced to act in self-defense. Jock was refused bail, and has spent two years in Sofia Central Prison. In December 2009, Jock was found guilty of both premeditated murder and attempted murder with antisocial intent. He was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment with civil fines equating to $375,000 AUD. The gang members have consistently lied to avoid their responsibility for starting the violence that led to the death of Andrey Monov. The prosecution's case was built on the witness statements made by the other Nazis that were there that night, all claiming that Jock randomly attacked the group and chased them with the intent of killing somebody.The prosecutor has blocked evidence which exposes the lies of both gang members and police. The investigation and court proceedings were also flawed, and biased against Jock’s defense. The nature of the trial against Jock has violated his human rights and revealed the corruption and injustice of the judicial system. Join us in standing up against fascism and in favour of freedom for Jock.

This is a very important time for solidarity actions with Jock, as his appeal trial will start on the 21st October. There will be actions around the world - in Europe, the UK, America. In Sydney supporters will gather at the Tarpeian Lawn, Botanical Gardens (near Government House and The Opera House) from 12 noon till 5pm. (Please be there by 1pm for speeches by friends and family). http://www.freejock.net

Dale and other volunteers from Sydney Copwatch will present a short talk on the laws relating to police and raise such questions as : Do we "demand" that cops obey the law, or is that just buying into a dominant ideology that the law is somehow good? Do traditional demands for civil rights simply confuse the class issue? Focus will be on open discussion and sharing ideas on activism.
