"Life After Capitalism" Conference
New York City, August 20-22, 2004

The protests around the Republican National Convention taking place in New
York City later this summer are shaping up to be perhaps the largest this
country has ever seen. As folks from all over the United States have
started booking their flights, organizing their local communities into
busses and vans, and collecting that last bit of gas money from in between
the pillows of their couches — organizers are quietly discussing the
possibility of having over 1 million people converging in the streets of
New York City during the week of Aug 28th-September 2nd....

New York City, July 24, 2004

Twelve hours of celebration and sedition,
libation and liberation, in the midst of
bliss and blasphemy we declare our
independence and build our newnation.

From 6pm to 6am, July 24th we will reclaim
the broken banks of Brooklyn. Hosted at
10 Jay St. in Dumbo, we have 60,000sqft of
outdoor space nestled against the East River

several rooms of sound, performance and
spontaneous acts.

"Istanbul: Aliens Against NATO Land at Beyoglu"
Anarsistanbul

Police attacked anarchists. Photos here.

On June 16th aliens against NATO landed at Beyoglu, Istiklal Street that is one of the important places of “NATO valley” (where the NATO summit will take place. Tight measures are taken and many people’s identities and houses are investigated in detail in this region)

ANARSISTANBUL writes

Anarsistanbul Calls Your Imagination To Aaction
Have you ever thought bombs dropping on your head while you are sitting at home peacefully? Or the soldiers experimenting the latest military technology on you while you are walking in the street?

Massacres like these happen every day, every moment, every where in the world. And the main actors of these massacres are meeting in Istanbul. The army of capitalism’s global dominance projects, NATO, global torturers and murderers will be in Istanbul on the 28-29th of June. They will gather to prepare a scenario of exploitation, massacre, humiliation, migration and ecological destruction. In the name of “war against terrorism”, they will try to spread their bloody plans all around our region and seize our lives.

We shall not let the torturer murderers' usurpation scenarios towards our region which they are planning to declare in Istanbul. They weren’t welcomed in Iraq, let’s show them they will not be welcomed in Istanbul too. Let’s show them that our region will be not the home of military bases of NATO but the home of the struggle of bread, justice and freedom!
