"I have never read Marx. Well, I read a few pages then decided he was a bore. Karl didn't invent the class struggle, he merely wrote about it in a way that impressed some people, using lots of big words. While it can certainly be useful to know about the history of the working class, you don't need to have studied Marxist theory to know that being bossed around is degrading" - Dave Coull ----- Original Message ----- From: "anti-wto" <anti-wto at reitschule.ch> To: <caravan99 at list.free.de> Sent: Friday, September 29, 2000 2:48 PM Subject: (en) occupation of the Czech embassy in Berne/Switzerland (de)

> About twelve activists of the anti-WTO-coordination and the
> anarcho-syndicalist group FAUCH occupied the Czech embassy in Berne, the
> capital of Switzerland, today at 1 pm. They hung out banners demanding
> the release of all the people arrested around the demonstrations against
> IMF and World Bank in Prague and protested against the human right
> abuses of the Czech police. The Czech embassador and the officials of
> the embassy remained locked out of their offices for about two hours
> while the occupiers chanted their slogans and read out their statements
> to the people of the area and urged the embassador to pass the message
> on to Prague. Before leaving the building they held a press conference
> from the embassadors' office balcony.
> The occupiers also demanded that the huge park of the embassy be opened
> for the residents of the neighbouring estate which mainly consists of
> council houses. They left the offices untouched - just Havel's portrait
> in the embassador's office got surrounded by red and black flags.
>
> All the occupiers got checked by the Swiss police when they left the
> embassy. According to the czech embassador it depends on the Czech
> foreign minister whether they will be faced with a charge or not.
