FROM PROTEST TO REVOLT

Time: September 26, 2000. Location: Prague

Global capitalism is celebrating... Conference of the IMF and the World Bank. The bosses of the planet meet in order to promote globalisation of economy, in order to define again their strategy and projects for extending domination. Bragging for the new field now opened for capitalism, they will count on how many proletarians they will have to step, how many hectares of land must be spoiled, so that they build and enjoy their brave new world, their “omnipotent and indisputable” new order.

Global capitalism is scared... The bosses and the state of Czech republic, in collaboration with american and european states that are more organized in repression, are being prepared for months to confront the thousands of protesters who will come to Prague during the conference. Cops and bodyguards are specially trained to preserve the secure works of the conference and challenge possible riots in the streets of Prague...

As anarchists-antiauthoritarians who act within the social war in Greece, we realize the importance of globalising the struggle against the globalisation promoted by the bosses. Our goal is to substantiate the worst fears of the capitalists. With the experiences from former fights, we come to Prague in order to find our comrades from all over the world, to sabotage the conference of the IMF and WB, to realize an insurrection in the streets of Prague.

For us, to just protest against the representatives of the State and the Capital will never be enough. And as for nationalists, stalinists and political parties who fortify the regime, even disguised as “resistance”, by preventing the forces of subversion from being expressed, they ’re also our class and social enemies.

In the crucial moment we won’t be afraid of any of them. Prague will become black and red...

AGAINST THE STATE AND THE CAPITAL
AGAINST GLOBALISATION OF DOMINATION

FOR GLOBAL SOCIAL REVOLUTION
FOR FREEDOM

Athens-Prague, Proletarians in Revolt

[With this text, which had written after two public discussions in Athens, our comrades departed to Prague. Good luck!]
