Border bother for visitors to Italy

Tough luck for tourists as Italy tightens its borders. For the next two weeks, Italy is suspending the Schengen Agreement, which abolished border controls within mainland Europe. It is doing this to step up security ahead of the G8 summit in L’Aquila on July 15. It means anyone entering or leaving Italy will now need to show a passport.

At Rome’s Fiumicino airport, border police said that even in the first hours of the measure being brought in there were several problems, with people forgetting to bring passports or even bringing false ones.

We have grown up but the future is still ours….See you in L’Aquila

8 years have gone by since 2001 Genoa G8 summit. Some of us were there, some of us were little more than kids. But no-one has forgotten those three hundred thousand people come from all over the world to demonstrate for a better possible world, for freedom from the slavery of profit, for justice and peace. No one has forgotten the murder of Carlo, the massacre of thousands of protesters, the tortures in Bolzaneto, the high school Diaz turned into a slaughterhouse, nor the sadism of the guards.
The abuse of power being absolved, the comrades unfairly persecuted and condemned.

8 years have been long and many things have changed. The political world wide agenda, that we almost succeeded in snatching from Capital’s secretaries, has started again to sign the same appointments of war, exploitation, slavery, hunger, destruction of the planet, “war on terrorism”.

G8 2009. From Rome, looking at L’Aquila and the World.

“Seven winds in the lower calendars and geographies:
first wind, a worthy and angry youth”.
Subcomandante Marcos, Ezln, Chiapas, Mexico.

Message to the greek rebels on december 2008.

On July 8th, 9th and 10th the president-master of the italian government, Silvio Berlusconi, will host the summit of the “Big Eight” of the Planet. The summit will take place in the fortress of a State Police Corps, in Coppito, a town close to L’Aquila, a city where people and land are still devasted by the earthquake of the 6th of April 2009. The president moved there the summit from its original destination: a luxury liner off the sardinian coast of La Maddalena.

Due by the action of this arrogant governor, leader of a speculation and war system responsible for the crisis, is taking shape an attempt to validate again the failed global political governance. The situationist of reaction, Silvio Berlusconi, gives to the “Big” of the Planet the opportunity to perform a show of “sobrity”, as he called it. A show he would like to be appropriate to face the growing ostilities and rebellions rising in every corner of the World against the G8’s decisions and dominance.

L’Aquila and the others, beyond the G8

The NoG8 Network of the city of Rome endorses the call “L’Aquila and the others, beyond the G8” that was agreed upon during the national meeting held on the 1st of June in L’Aquila.

The roman network supports the call to “spread out the mobilizations” from the first week of July and up until the days of the summit of the heads of State and government, which will be held in Coppito and will discuss the global crisis. These spread-out mobilizations will include the national demonstration already scheduled for the 4th of July in Vicenza against the expansion of the US military base ‘Dal Molin’.

Police have no right to 'herd' protesters say MPs condemning G20 tactics

Police must urgently review their tactic of 'kettling' demonstrators, MPs investigating the G20 protests say today.

In a damning report, the Commons home affairs committee says holding protesters in a small area for hours is unacceptable.

The first major review of the 7million pounds operation also said officers who work with their identity numbers hidden or missing should face the 'strongest possible' disciplinary measures.

Canadian law enforcement community to directly access essential INTERPOL databases

Ottawa – June 12th, 2009. Canada is set to become one of the first countries in the world to provide police officers nationwide with technology to gain immediate access to INTERPOL’s vast international criminal databases.

“This project will have a positive and immediate impact on Canada’s ability to fight global crime,” said Public Safety Minister Peter Van Loan. “We are providing law enforcement with the tools they need to prevent attacks on our security, and make communities safer.”
