When The State Feels Threatened, You're All Suspects.

        We should pay heed to the "Operation Pandora" that is being played out in Spain, and also the part played in the lead up process, by that babbling brook of bullshit, the mainstream media. It is a formula that will be used by other European states, as they flounder in the face of growing public unrest and anger.  We are governed by consent, however, when we start to withdraw that consent, we are governed by an iron fist, as the state will not willingly relinquish its power. As our burden increases, and our struggle intensifies, the state will remove its kid-gloves and don the knuckledusters. The state can only survive by our subservience. Our desire to think for ourselves, is a noxious gas the the state apparatus. Solidarity knows no borders, solidarity is the winning weapon.

An extract from an article  by Anarcho-syndicalist:

      The State is hardening. The proof: the attempt on the part of the Ministry of the Interior to create a file on people who are arbitrarily classified as “suspects”, and the passage of a Law of Civil Security that gives the police carte blanche to repress any movement that protests in the streets. As opposed to those who propose constitutional reforms, or even to “democratize” the State in order to save it, there is a political sector that seeks to armor it with all kinds of repressive measures. Behind the walls of this fortress the majority of the real powers that have a great deal to lose in this crisis have taken refuge. They are beginning to panic, and that is why the State has embarked upon a change of course; with this goal in mind it is preparing the ground. The communications media were the first to lend a hand in this task, long before the police and the judiciary. For quite a while now fantastic stories about mysterious international visitors, the messengers of anarchy, as well as other tales of the same alarmist type, have been circulating, stories that have a tendency to criminalize the only means that exist which are opaque to Power (an opacity that is itself a scandal): squatted buildings, libertarian cultural centers and self-managed collectives.
