ME probeert voetbalsupporters tot rel te dwingen

Tjonge. Kennelijk is er ook al te weinig voetbalgeweld in Nederland. De ME verveelt zich echt te pletter.

Rellen Rotterdam `gepland`

De vechtpartij tijdens het bevrijdingsfeest in Rotterdam gisteravond was van tevoren gepland. Dat heeft de Rotterdamse burgemeester Aboutaleb gezegd.

De burgemeester laat onderzoek doen naar de rellen bij de Erasmusbrug. Hij weet al wel te melden dat de relschoppers de vechtpartij hadden beraamd. De agenten die het festivalterrein na afloop controleerden, vonden stokken met spijkers en andere wapens die van tevoren waren gemaakt en meegenomen. "Dat zijn geen normale voorbereidingshandelingen voor een feestje", aldus Aboutaleb.

Zelf kreeg ik een smsje van een bevriende bezoeker aan het festival dat "rechtse skinheads" aan het provoceren waren. Zouden ze er óók 100 euro voor hebben gevangen?

Hoe dan ook, wie de filmpjes bekijkt, ziet dat er in ieder geval een hoofdrol voor jongeren met een westeuropees uiterlijk was weggelegd.

Dit is dus de reden waarom ik aangaf dat het heel lelijk had kunnen worden als Karst T. een "Noordafrikaans" uiterlijk zou hebben gehad.

Latin America uniting against neocons of Washington

Wayne Madsen schrijft:

From Bolivia to Venezuela and Honduras to Argentina, Latin American governments are standing firm against the interference by the American administration, which has done everything possible to stoke the flames of insurrection and secession in energy-rich areas of Bolivia, Venezuela, and Ecuador.

Bolivia’s President Evo Morales, who faces CIA and U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)-sponsored right-wing rebellions in the energy-rich provinces of Santa Cruz, Pando, Tarija, and Beni, expelled U.S. Ambassador Philip Goldberg for interfering in Bolivia’s domestic affairs and supporting the right-wing rebels.

The State Department’s spokesman Sean McCormack, whose snottiness is unprecedented for a spokesperson for America’s seat of foreign diplomacy, responded by expelling Bolivia’s ambassador. McCormack had earlier joked that Russia could send warships to Venezuela if it could find any that could make it that far.

In a side quarrel, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov reportedly upbraided British neocon and pro-Israeli Foreign Secretary David Miliband by stating “who are you to fucking lecture me?”

Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez, in solidarity with Morales and reacting to yet another CIA-planned coup against him, after an April 2002 coup organized by then-U.S. Ambassador Charles Shapiro failed, ordered U.S. Ambassador Patrick Duddy to leave Venezuela. The State Department responded by expelling Venezuela’s ambassador in Washington.

From Pristina to La Paz: Expelled US Ambassador to Bolivia had been in charge of Kosovo Secession

The Balkanisation of Bolivia

by Wilson García Mérida

[excerpt]:

The influence of the CIA and of Ambassador Goldberg on the political actions of Reyes Villa (a former captain of the army associated with the dictatorships of Banzer and Garcia Meza) is irrefutable.

The separatist prefect has systematically blocked a peaceful solution to the conflict and in its place has developed a raging campaign of misinformation that seeks to create the conditions for confrontation on a national scale.

The US Embassy is deploying an effort of collective indoctrination against the indigenous crisis, promoting racial hatred and separatism that was evident during the events of January 11, 2007, in unison with business organizations such as the Chamber of Industry and Commerce (Cainco) in Santa Cruz, which openly supports Reyes Villa and his "advisors."

Provocateur tijdens vredesdemo blijkt politieagent

Erg interessant artikel over hoe de auteur tot het besef kwam dat een nogal agressieve demonstrant feitelijk een politieagent was, die ze al eerder had ontmoet op een feest...

He continued to shout slogans such as: 'Pigs Out.'

On his back was a black rucksack and he carried a professional-looking camera with a large telephoto lens. Hardly the sort of kit for a few snaps of his day out.

My friends and I, standing a few rows back, asked him a couple of times to calm down, but he ignored us.

I wondered why I was drawn to him. Was it his dark good looks or was I worried for the safety of my 70-year-old friend and children nearby?

Then it dawned on me. I had met this man at a party. I tapped him gently on the shoulder and said: 'Have we met before?'

Instantly he recognised me. 'Hi, how are you? It's really nice to see you here.'

My puzzlement grew. This chap wasn't really the sort you'd expect to see shouting abuse at police officers at an anti-war demo. He was, after all, a policeman himself - and a high-ranking one at that.
