It was the linking of the arms, over 200 hundred rows made up of 8 to 12 people each and a sister from Berlin who whispered ‘because of the snatch squads’ that reawakened my dormant thoughts on ‘the black bloc’.

First paragraph (Teaser):

Huge demonstrations are planned in Germany on the occasion of the annual G8 meeting that is to start on June 6. The summit of this gangsters' "united front" will once again be protected by a giant police operation. It will be held in an entrenched camp especially designed for the event near Rostock. A 13 kilometer-long barbed-wire fence was installed for $18 million in order to prevent the demonstrators entering the meeting site... The German Interior Ministry first announced an exclusion zone some six kilometers around the site, but a court finally ruled that protestors could not be kept more than 200 meters from the fence. Some 16,000 cops will be there anyway to enforce the rulers' law and order. The Maoist organizations in Europe are planning to take part in the different actions that will take place during the whole week. Five of them issued this statement that they will circulate widely among the demonstrators.

Carniaval against Capitalism Anti-G8 Protest Successful in Russia
Despite Massive Police Arrests Ahead of Bush visit and G8 Summit

[ this article was only posted in USA on Portland IMC, please repost as widely as possible!]

Despite the fact that as many as 200 potential anti-G8 protesters have been already arrested just before the arrival of President Bush in Russia, activists yesterday successfully organised a large carnival protest in Moscow without a single person being detained. However, illegal harrassment and detention of people remains a large civil rights problem.
