offsite link Making Sense of Trump?s Tariffs Fri May 02, 2025 13:00 | Ramesh Thakur
There's method in Trump's tariff madness, says Ramesh Thakur. Uniting his America First, anti-Net Zero and anti-DEI policies is an imperative to untangle the US from strategic dependence on an ascendant China.

Protest Presidency of E.U. in Hands of Torturers!

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Tuesday April 06, 2010 14:47author by Dublin Basque - DUBLIN IRISH BASQUE SOLIDARITY CAMPAIGN Report this post to the editors

The Spanish state has the Presidency of the EU until June 2010. Spain has been repeatedly found to be guilty of repression and torture by international bodies. Now kidnap and murder also!

Protest the banning of political parties and organisations, closure of newspapers, arrest and torture of journalists and political activists, inhumane treatment of political prisoners and now kidnapping, torture and murder of activists by undercover Spanish police squads.

The Spanish state currently holds the EU Presidency until June.

Spain has the lion's share of the more than 750 Basque political prisoners it shares with France. It has many of political refugees abroad and pursues them, seeking their extradition to an undemocratic and patently unfair judicial system which has been variously criticised or condemned by Amnesty International and committees of the EU and United Nations. It is currently seeking extradition of Basques from London and from Belfast, among others.

In recent years Spain has banned five Basque political parties and three youth organisations, closed down two newspapers and radio stations, arrested and tortured thousands of political activists, arrested, tortured and jailed journalists and is now running undercover operations kidnapping, torturing and killing political activists, as shown by the cases of Jon Anza and others.

Support this action to expose the Spanish state's fundamentally undemocratic and repressive nature to the Irish public, confront the EU and the Spanish state with their crimes and show solidarity to the Basque people in struggle.
