[Nettime-bold] Update on 'BBC Confirmation..' |
Hello again - and apologies to everybody for the previously knocked out message conc. 'BBC Confirmation of CNN Footage Fake'. What happened? The story reached me late this afternoon via the UK Indymedia newsletter digest. This BBC thing + the added comments seem to be only available via the Indy newsletter, and have not been published on any of Indymedia's websites. The link provided inside the newsletter is dead, which is a little odd and adds to the impression that things are sort of out of line with Indymedia's usual publishing practice. The CNN counter statement published a couple of days ago is available on: http://uk.indymedia.org/display.php3?article_id=11942 The Uk Indymedia collective will hopefully respond to my questions on that BBC thing, as well as giving an update on some of the troubles with viruses and strained servers which currently effect Indymedia, SchNews, Znet and many others. take care everybody, stop the rush. roya* -----*-----*-----*-----* -------- Original Message -------- Subject: amuck digest, Vol 1 #224 - 5 msgs Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2001 12:02:00 -0400 From: [email protected] Reply-To: [email protected] To: [email protected] Send imc-uk mailing list submissions to [email protected] To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit http://lists.indymedia.org/mailman/listinfo/imc-uk or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to [email protected] You can reach the person managing the list at [email protected] When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of imc-uk digest..."

Can you please not use white letters on black background? Please... I ruined my eyes like that, in the years before 1984. When they found out green on black was the worst possible combination for reading.

Scuccimarri" <[email protected]>(by way of Indymedia UK, <[email protected]>) To: "imc uk public" <[email protected]> This is the comment I want to make below. Why is it daytime in those clips of the Palestinians celebrating the WTC attacks? Think about the question before you answer too quick. Shortly after the attacks, I heard about the celebrating, later that afternoon I see these clips, and they are in daylight. Say what you want, but aren't they on the other side of the world? Instead of challenging someone to prove you wrong, try investigating the footage from the 90's, and prove to us that they are indeed from 9/11/01. I think that when chalenged by the media, people will deny their claims in fear of being exploited. Fact: The government will not show us what they don't want us to see. They have been known to create stories to fill in the blanks, or to manipulate the already weakened state of mind. SHOW ME THE MONEY!

I am trying to respond to this article. From: "Marcio A. V. de Carvalho" <[email protected]> To: Valerio Soares <[email protected]>, Date: Fri, 14 Sep 2001 07:52:49 -0300 Subject: CNN Dear all, Last September 13, I've sent an email to this list in which I provided some information about the falsity of the images of Palestinian celebration for the terrorism in USA, information given to me by a teacher. I spent the last day looking for that teacher, and, unfortunately, when I found her, she DENIED having access to such images. She said that she was sure she had seen the images back in 1991, but SHE CAN'T PROVE. She was not willing to provide further information, DENYING what she had said before to a full class of students. I sincerely apologize for this uncertain information; unfortunately I can't prove the information contained in my last post; IT'S ONLY A CONJECTURE, THAT THOSE IMAGES OF PALESTINIANS CELEBRATING IS FALSE. I bought the idea myself, and reproduced it for you because of the importance of it, in the case it was to be confirmed. Whatever news I get I'll pass to you. Best regards M�rcio A. V.

EU PLANS TO COMBAT TERRORISM MAY ALSO COVER PROTESTS In the wake of the tragic events in the USA the European Commission has put forward a proposal for a "Framework Decision on combating terrorism" which is being discussed today at the special meeting of EU Justice and Home Affairs Ministers in Brussels. An analysis of the proposal would appear to show that the intention is to extend the definition of "terrorism" to cover public order situations. Tony Bunyan, Statewatch editor, comments: "The response of the EU to the tragic events in the US needs to be examined with great care. The definition of terrorism is very similar in its scope to the UK Terrorism Act which is drawn so wide as to endanger legitimate dissent. The European Commission proposal on combating terrorism is either very badly drafted, or there is a deliberate attempt to broaden the concept of terrorism to cover protests (such as those in Gothenburg and Genoa) and what it calls "urban violence" (often seen by local communities as self-defence). If it is intended to slip in by the back door draconian measures to control political dissent it will only serve to undermine the very freedoms and democracies legislators say they are protecting" For full report see: <http://www.statewatch.org/news/2001/sep/14eulaws.htm> Subject: [Imcuk public] Shut Down the Nazi Charity Shop Resent-Date: Fri, 21 Sep 2001 11:20:59 +0100 Resent-From: "Indymedia UK" <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2001 12:44:26 +0100 From: ANL <[email protected]>(by way of Indymedia UK, <[email protected]>) To: "imc uk public" <[email protected]> Shut Down the Nazi Charity Shop - Day of Action Saturday 22 September 2001 Assemble 12 noon outside the St Michael's Charity shop, on the Corner of Elgin Avenue and Shirland Road, London W9 The St Michael's Charity Shop on Shirland road is a front for an Italian fascist group with links to the Nazis in Britain. Italian fascist Roberto Fiore was sentenced in 1985 in his absence in Italy for being a member of the political wing of a fascist terror group responsible for planting the Bologna bomb in 1980 which killed 85 people. Fiore says he is happy to be described as a fascist. He set up this charity shop with Nick Griffin, Fuhrer of the Nazi British National Party. Griffin has a criminal conviction for race hatred and Holocaust Denial. Edgar Griffin his father who was recently thrown out of the Conservative Party for his Nazi connections was the accountant for the charity shops and Treasurer of the Trust of St Michael Archangel which runs the Shirland Road shop. The Charity Commission has now frozen the shop's assets and removed its charitable status. However it remains open and funds from the shop are used to fund Nazi activities including the formation of a nationalist village in Spain. Local campaigns closed down its sister shops in Carlton Vale. We want to shut down this shop as well.
