hi dada people,

magduv is a techie from IMC Russian-language and urgently needs help
in getting everything ready for the anti-G8 protests in July (next
month).

anna from imc de has given a good description of the importance of
this G8 and how it's likely to be different from previous ones - much
heavier repression is expected, with the idea of another "Miami
model"(TM), except this could possibly turn out to be "the Russian
Miami model"(TM), to be used in the following G8 meeting in Germany
and in other summits:
lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/www-features/2006-June/0611-fj.html

Can any dada people please reply to him directly? i can't see his
message archived here:
www.dadaimc.org/mod/list_archives/browse/index.php

The Russians are doing a lot of organising, but they need a lot of
support as well.

thanks
boud (imc-pl-torun)
