WHY WE ARE PROTESTING!
Montebello, Quebec (August 19-21, 2007) -- George Bush, Stephen Harper and Mexican President Felipe Calderon are meeting behind steel fences and thousands of police at the Chateau Montebello, as part of the so-called "Security and Prosperity Partnership".

Arson attack on a car of the Federal Constitutional Court
derkampfgehtweiter 3rd of August 2007
In the night of the 2nd to 3rd of August we burned a car of the Federal Constitutional Court in Schönhauser Allee. By this we explicitly want to express our anger about the unspeakable militant-group-construct of Federal Criminal Police BKA and political police that lead to the arrests of Tuesday. By the outrageous arguments of the Federal Chief Prosecutor every radical left who had studied political science or sociology and is interested in certain topics is turned into a potential member of the "militante gruppe".

Huge "No G8" slogan visible from German summit site
Boergerende, Germany - Critics of globalization confirmed Tuesday they had painted a huge red 'No G8' slogan on a building that will be visible from the venue of this June's summit of eight leading nations in Germany.
The red letters, painted three storeys high on a 50-metre-long unused vacation boarding-house at the seaside resort of Boergerende, are visible 3 kilometres away.

A group which named itself the Easter Painting Holiday Group admitted responsibility for the graffiti, which went up over the Easter long weekend that ended in Germany Monday.
Demonstrators who oppose the policies of the G8 (Group of Eight) policies are planning to get as close as police will allow in June to the summit venue, the elegant beach resort of Heiligendamm on Germany's Baltic coast.
The painted 'No G8' slogan can be seen across a steel-mesh security fence which has been erected right around Heiligendamm.
