Anarchists attended in Ankara a 1st of March anti-war demo
as "Black Block" in which there were people walking
within unions, political parties, NGOs and various
leftist groups. According to the mainstream media
60.000, according to the organizers 100.000
demostrated. The march started at 10:00 and 4 hours
later there were still groups who could not enter
Sihhiye Square. In this demo "Black Block" consisting of anarchists
from different group and individuals coming from
various cities reached the highest number and highest
enthusiasm in the history of Turkish anarchist
movement. We were carrying lots of banners ("WE SHALL
NOT BE ANYONE'S SOLDIER", "NO", "REJECT, RESIST, SAY
NO!", "CAPITALISM KILLS", "ANARCHIST REBEL AGAINST THE
WAR", "DON'T BE A SOLDIER", "LET THE STATE NOT EXIST",
circled "A" etc.), tens of black, black-red,
black-purple flags, and lots of placards. With
participation of anarchists from universities, unions
etc. Black Block was about 400 anarchists (according
to some it once became 600, for some it was about
500). It consisted anarchists from Ankara, Istanbul,
Izmir, Bursa, Antalya, Usak, Malatya, Sakarya, Bolu,
Denizli, Corlu (Tekirdag), Eskisehir, Samsun, Antakya
and (probably) from some more places we did not know
and even there were few comrades from France, Italy,
Greece and Finland. Gay and lesbians from Kaos GL and
Istanbul-Lambda walked in front of our cortege and
sometimes we shouted same/common slogans.

Some slogans were: "You cannot make revolution! You
cannot buy it! It exists in your soul or nowhere!",
"Anarchist Rebel against the war", "War is a shitty
thing", "We are anti, anti-militarist", "We shall not
be anyone's soldier", "Make war! Make war! There is
shit! There is shit!", "No party no leader give
power/shoulder to anarchy", "Rebel revolution
anarchy", "We won't die we won't kill we will not be
anyone's soldier", "Reject Resist Say No! Don't be a
Soldier", "One Solution Revolution One Solution
Anarchy", "Let's raid the parliament, let's make it
funfair", "Killer State! We will smash it!"

Ozgur Hayat (former AGF) group -who are isolated by
anarchists forming Black Block because of their
violent acts against the other anarchists- came to the
demo (mostly) from Istanbul and were about 60-70.
They wanted to walk near Black Block but we did not
let them to walk nearby.

Later we'll give web addresses of photos, videos and
tape-records of the demo.
