We reproduce below the statement sent to the media: 15 M 2013 is not just an anniversary is also a time of intense fighting, with actions in different places since Friday 10 May, after warming up with actions decentralized bank branches proposed to Toque Campaign Bankia tomorrow. Two years ago, on May 15, 2011, the people rose up and took the streets to fight a political and economic system that is pouring disaster against budget austerity measures that ignore the inhumane and unjust insecurity of the majority of the population that have led to a social emergency. However, our politicians and financial authorities do not want to understand the message, do not listen to any proposal and taking advantage of the crisis to continue to plunder the common wealth and profit themselves. On May 12, we went back to the streets in a peaceful demonstration and protest because we are fed up with their lies, manipulations and corruption, we do not want goods remain in the hands of politicians and bankers and why we have initiated a process of social change construction of alternatives to its model to become a constituent power that will lead to a new paradigm where social and environmental justice prevail. To this end, we put on the table six points that were proposed last year measures for minimum change, because we are still at the same point and our claims are still valid: First. Not one euro to rescue banks. We audit the debt from the public to create an economy closer to people and point out the real culprits of the crisis. We must not, do not pay! Instead of rescuing financial institutions, build and support a truly ethical bank that responds to social criteria and not in search of profit. Two. Education, health services and public financing and management, universal quality. No to cuts in public spending, no to privatization of public services, not to the privatization of water and unsustainable exploitation of natural resources. No repayment. Three. Fair distribution of work and wealth distribution to build a new sustainable production model without poverty or insecurity, a model based on the common good. No to retirement at 67 years and immediate withdrawal of the last labor reforms. Recognition invisible and unpaid labor (reproductive work, home, care, dependent …). Four. Guaranteed right to access to housing, mortgage abusive repeal legislation. Halt evictions. Retroactive payment in kind. Conversion of the stock of real estate financial institutions public housing for social rent, amounting to no more than 30% of monthly income. Measures against abuse of speculation: promoting housing cooperatives and expropriation of vacant homes. 5. Universal basic income for all. Dignified life and the right to existence. Tax reform that allows fairly distribute wealth. Effective fight against tax evasion and tax havens. Our lives are not commodities! 6. Democracy, transparency, return of political power to the people through a constitutional process. Human rights and civil liberties: freedom of assembly, demonstration, strike, Equality and association … right to their own bodies. Right to food and food sovereignty. But none of these goals can not get them without breaking the system, the present institutional framework. Just raising popular power from below and the low will be possible to establish a new framework for relations between all. And we say: We do not represent, let them out! Furthermore, although some say that social mobilization and civil disobedience do not get results in these two years we have achieved many milestones, unthinkable until recently and, slowly, we are creating alternatives to unbridled capitalism and neoliberal logic. Because with social mobilization and yes disobedience results are obtained. Among the successes' most recent social movements as a result of the explosion 15M there both related to housing, such as the health, education and the debt crisis. And also important social changes such as the decision of firefighters from various regions of refusing to participate in evictions, and more than a hundred doctors from hospitals in Madrid have resigned en masse in protest over healthcare privatization orchestrated by Ignacio Gonzalez. In Catalonia include the task of moving platforms Rear, Stop rubber bullets and Eye eye with you, along with thousands of people on social networks have managed to raise awareness on the need to ban rubber bullets and deslitimització the social body mossos that caused the fall of the Interior Minister Felip Puig. The police repression of protests is a two-edged tool and to date, one in three riot longer wants it. In health research work and claims of some journalists and media committed such Latte have achieved the resignation of the president of the ICS, Josep Prat, imputation or the High Court of Xavier Crespo numerous irregularities evident in the report of the audit.http://www.twitpic.com/cp99jz

Since then, a police force has been repeatedly chastised for its response to the protests, a police chief has stepped down and four local activists spent months locked up without charges ever being filed – in and out of solitary confinement – for refusing to cooperate with a federal grand jury that many have described as a “political witch hunt.” But while Seattle police have said confidently that they are ready for whatever protestors throw at th…http://www.twitpic.com/clia9o
#occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Interview with Ghazi Beji: atheism as a crime! http://atunisiangirl.blogspot.com/2013/04/interview-avec-ghazi-beji-latheisme.html TRANSLATED FROM FRENCH BY GOOGLE CHROME TRANSLATOR In Tunisia, two years after the popular uprising that led to the departure of the dictator ZABA, trials opinion multiply … Most of these cases are brought under the broad heading of damage to religious or moral damage to the sacred. One example is the trial of Al Ghazi Beji and Jabeur Majeri. Indeed, ” Monday, June 25, 2012, the Court of Appeal upheld the judgment Monastir the trial court that sentenced Mehdia Al Jabeur Mejri young surfer, to imprisonment for seven years and a half. The same judgment was given by default against Ghazi Beji that, he was forced to leave the country seeking political asylum abroad, following the indictment of two young surfers to have caused serious material damage by the publication of photographs and writings on their Facebook pages. “* I had the opportunity to interview Ghazi Beji via Facebook and here is the exchange that took place between us: 1) if you start by introducing yourself to International Opinion readers? Ghazi Beji, 28, holds a bachelor's degree in food and biotechnology. I am originally from the Tunisian city of Mahdia. I am the author of the book The Illusion of Islam. 2) With your friend Jabeur Mejri you end sentenced in March 2012 to 7 ½ years in prison, sentence upheld in June following the Court of Appeal reached Monastir to religious morality, defamation, and disturbing the public order. Can you return to this mishap? After the revolution, I wrote a book called the illusion of Islam and my friend Jabeur Mejri wrote a book in English called Dark Land, or have criticized the fascist religious Tunisia and the exclusion of others in the name of Islam. We were sentenced to 7 years and a half in prison and a fine of 1,200 dinars. Jabeur was arrested on 5 March 2012. As for me, I managed to run away and leave my country on 8 March 2012. I had an amazing career: Libya, Algeria – Turkey then I went to Turkey to Greece to swim. Thereafter, I had from Macedonia and Serbia and Romania and finallyI had the subsidiary protection. Unfortunately, I have been targeted and attacked by Islamic extremists while I continued to move me from one country to another: Hungary-Austria-Switzerland-France. 3) How do you see this verdict and the trial in general? This is an attack on my freedom of expression because the religious do not believe in democracy. Their goal in life is to destroy the lives of human beings. They can not digest the fact that someone is happy, they want everyone to livein the shit (lol) 4) You've managed to run away and leave Tunisia. However, we heard that you had to face many difficulties and problems. Can you talk about that? I met several constraints in Libya with jihadi groups in Algeria I spent 15 days in fear of the dictator regime in Greece I had to resist against the extreme right who was chasing strangers in the streets of Athens and racist hyper police, with its rotten laws. In Macedonia, I was in prison and I have had problems with thieves police. In Serbia, I have not had much luck and I was brutally tortured in prisons in the north you south. In Romania, I discovered that racism n has not been eradicated and I found myself in a refugee camp with the terrorists who attacked me. Now I'm moving in different countries of the Western Europe but still undocumented. 5) What is your current situation? Have you managed to rebuild your life? I managed to partially adjust my status but the biggest remains. 6) Your friend Jabeur Majeri languishing in a cell in Tunisia. Can you tell us about the situation and the conditions of his detention? Jabeur is imprisoned in the Mahdia. His situation is very delicate. Indeed, he is tortured by prison guards and other prisoners who accuse him of being an unbeliever. The conditions of his detention are terrible: he caught scabies and can no longer walk. In addition, he is forced to do the prayers in the prison infirmary. 7) Have you found support of Tunisian civil society? How civil society could it help you and how it could act to save Jabeur? I found the support of the Tunisian civil society in France. However, I was ignored by the Tunisian League of Human Rights. Tunisians-the-Tunisian people condemned me. I was vilified and I got several smear campaigns and threats on social networks. 
How do you see the situation in Tunisia now? Do you believe that the freedoms and human rights are in danger right now? I think this phase is an essential and crucial phase in the history of our country. Tunisians must pass through this phase to understand the meaning of democracy, citizenship, the separation between the state and I religion.Mais remain convinced that we will get out either through a civil war or another. 9) have announced the publication of a book. Can you talk about that? I have not yet published my new book, but it will be soon. I will tell all my journey from Tunisia to France I arrived, with a critical eye towards Europe and what they call human Rights which are lies and illusions. 10) I'll leave the last word. In the end I want to say to the people of Tunisia that the fault is not that of Ennahda. I think the majority of Tunisians are hard religious who are struggling to accept difference and digest democracy. The majority is made up of people who are against freedom of expression, and the difference against the gender. I also want to remind the people who shouted loudly thirst for freedom and dignity is the same who voted for the Islamists and fired from my job three times when I was still in Tunisia and my censored before, but I have no hatred towards my countrymen because they will always be my people, my people … * Excerpt from the press kit of the support committee Ghazi Beji and Jabeur Al Majeri. At a conference organized around the theme “Tunisia: the dangers threatening the freedom of expression after the revolution,” the Tunisian section of Amnesty announced its full support to Al Jabeur Majeri and Ghazi Beji. A campaign to collect signatures has already been launched and you can follow the latest developments on Twitter via the hashtag # FreeJabeur.http://www.twitpic.com/cl2ico

Pickle lived in the shelter system for a while but found it wasn't really helping him get back on his feet. He says case workers urged him to hang out for a few months and try to get on disability, perhaps by exaggerating his emotional problems. But Pickle wanted a job, not a “handout.” “I'm a confident person. I knew I was capable of living on my own and getting a job,” the 20-year-old says. “I just needed some place to store my stuff.” Then he heard about a place called …http://www.twitpic.com/cipo6s
