grim User Info... | All from news.infoshop.org: 1.) The following was posted on a Halifax Independent News website by an anonymous user. "In the late hours of August 18 a CIBC was vandalized and stenciled 'Big Brother is Watching You'. Later, two parking lot security cameras were vandalized and a third camera destroyed with fire. A wall was tagged 'Fuck the SPP'. The actions were taken with the intention of deepening attacks against security hysteria and in solidarity with individuals engaging in sabotage against the Security and Prosperity Partnership." 2.) Nazis and Fascists Confronted in Seattle: http://www.infoshop.org/inews/article.php?story=20070819111035498 3.) Actions Against Colonialism in Canada "Saturday morning, august 19th, a group of anarchists attacked a Bell Canada Enterprises building on Bank St south of Beaumont. Windows were smashed out because of Bell’s involvement in the Security and Prosperity Partnership as a North American Competitiveness Council Member. This action was also done in solidarity with the anti-capitalists and communities struggling against the Olympics in 2010. Bell Canada’s president and CEO is Michael J. Sabia, with his history as CEO for the Canadian National Railway (CN), it is no surprise that he is shaping Bell with the same colonial behaviors as CN. Both Bell Canada and CN rail are NACC members and are directly involved in the dispossession of Native peoples, the normalization of new repression in our lives, and the reduction of our relationships with each other and the world to the precariousness of a capitalist social context: a context devoid of mutual aid, a context of exploitative exchange. We can and must take the fate of our lives into our own hands and organize ourselves. Sabotage! Attack! Insurge! No Olympics on Stolen Land! Smash the State! Destroy the SPP! Abolish Capitalism!" 4.) Anarchists Attack Bank "Early in the morning on August 18th anarchists attacked the Bank of Nova Scotia on Main Street in Ottawa. The lock to the door was glued and spray paint applied to the entrance walls. Later that morning, the Bank of Nova Scotia on Bank Street and 4th Avenue was also attacked. Paint bombs were thrown to the walls and the lock was glued in front of the security guard posting watch at the door. No one was arrested.

These actions happened because of the Banks’ involvement in the Security and Prosperity Partnership. It happened because we are tired of living on our knees beneath a system forged by the plots and nightmares of assassins and thieves! Destroy Capitalism and its conspiring defenders! Smash the Banks, smash the SPP!!" - Sun, 19 Aug 2007 11:06pm | ||
