In solidarity with the Egyptian free union activists
The General Secretary of the British National Union of Journalists has sent a letter of solidarity to the Egyptian Real Estate Tax Collectors who are building the country’s first independent trade union in half a century:
Dear sisters and brothers,
I am writing to wish you success and offer solidarity on the launch of your new free union.
Independent trade unions which stand up for their members interests are vital for working people across the globe and I was inspired when I heard about your struggle both for improved conditions at work but also for free and independent trade unionism.
I will discuss with my colleagues ways we can offer practical support for your struggle in the British labor movement.
In solidarity
Jeremy Dear
General Secretary, National Union of Journalists
Torture’s Teacher
When you receive a subject, the first thing to do is to determine his physical state, his degree of resistance, through a medical examination. A premature death means a failure by the technician.
Another important thing to know is exactly how far you can go given the political situation and the personality of the prisoner. It is very important to know beforehand whether we have the luxury of letting the subject die…
Before all else, you must be efficient. You must cause only the damage that is strictly necessary, not a bit more. We must control our tempers in any case. You have to act with the efficiency and cleanliness of a surgeon and with the perfection of an artist.
On a related note, I strongly recommend you watch this movie.
