Peru's government suspended civil rights Monday in remote jungle regions where Indian groups are blocking highways and oil and gas installations to protest a law that makes it easier to sell their lands.

“The government and FBI should not be able to hide the name of a witness who says (he or she) saw Aquash alive months after she was allegedly killed,” wrote John Graham's lawyer.

The municipal government of the southern Chilean town of Tirúa made clear on Monday that there is no evidence proving that Saturday’s attack on police in the area was executed by members of the Mapuche indigenous group.

Coast Salish Territory (Vancouver BC, Canada)
Late on the night of August 6th a probation office on Commercial Drive had its front window smashed with a chunk of cement. This was done as an act of solidarity with the hundreds of prisoners in Europe participating in a mass hunger strike from August 1-7th. Particularly with the anarchists, Gabriel Pombo da Silva and Jose Fernandez Delgado.
This was also in solidarity with Amadeu Casellas. Amadeu is an anarchist who has been imprisoned by the Spanish state for 25 years. He started a hunger strike on 22nd of July. In a communique released on July 18th he made the statement "Freedom or Death".

In the wee hours of the morning of August 4 anarchist settlers used a ketchup bottle to apply red metal paint to a statue of John Galt in front of City Hall. August 4 was Guelph’s first ever John Galt Day. The town was awash in festivities and celebrations honouring John Galt and the plan he developed for the founding of the city of Guelph back in 1827. But who is this John Galt character?

On the night of July 23, we joyfully smashed out 10 windows of the RBC at First and Commercial. It should be painfully obvious why we did this. It is a bank. Death to the market and the systems of repression!

Some Toads

in the early morning of tuesday july 22nd 2008 a truck belonging to peter kiewit and sons parked off of victoria drive was lit on fire. kiewit is making a(nd) killing off of the development of the sea to sky highway. this highway development, along with the new high speed train line linking the airport to downtown, and the construction of new powerlines through tsawwassen communities, is paving the way for an intensification of development, resource extraction, tourism, ecological devastation and repression. progress is a weapon used by the rich to impose the resulting misery of their projects upon our lives. this action was done in solidarity with people attacking capitalist projects everywhere, from six nations and their battles in ontario to the people who made "deep cuts" in the new powerline poles and threatened developers with crowbars in tsawwassen. we are at war and our promise to developers and the pigs that protect them, their projects, and world is simple: as long as you build alienation and exploitation into our lives and territory we will not hesitate to consume your nightmares with our fire!

On July 21st, A Royal Bank Of Canada on Broadway, in Vancouver, was attacked. It had its four ATMS smashed out.

On the night of Monday, July 14th, east of the Abbotsford-Mission Bridge (near Vancouver) thick copper wire was placed across the train tracks, connecting two rails to mimic a blockage and hopefully disrupting train traffic for hours. This is a strategic place because it is a bottle neck of three major train lines.
