DESCRIPTION:On October 5th, 2012 we are calling for a global day of action against the 
 Mexican, US, and Canadian consulates and embassies worldwide. We are not 
 recommending any particular actions; instead we are calling for as many 
 people as possible to expose the role of these entities in resource 
 extraction and poisoning of the earth, genocides, and assassinations of 
 rebels rising up against the many headed hydra of capitalism—especially 
 its mining companies.\n\nIn the spirit of resistance, we are calling for 
 actions against the embassies of these countries to reaffirm our solidarity 
 with Indigenous peoples who are fighting back against the systemic rape of 
 the earth and exposing the sickness of capitalism. The three fascist 
 governments of Mexico, the US, and Canada make up the North American Free 
 Trade Agreement (NAFTA).\n\nCanada is a legal exception with regards to 
 mining policy: it is the only nation-state that does not require its 
 companies to follow its own laws when operating in another nation-state.  
 While it is important to call attention to Canada’s exceptional legal 
 status, it is equally if not more important to recognize that all mining is 
 fundamentally unsustainable and will always be pitted against the earth and 
 its inhabitants.\n\nMining companies are maintained by the militaries and 
 police forces of these fascist states.  Whenever a population rises up to 
 stop the exploitation of the land, they are inevitably confronted by the 
 forces of the Policia Federal, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, or the 
 Federal Bureau of Investigations.  In the most unstable situations, 
 insurgent populations are encircled by the military and put under 
 siege.\n\nThese companies and governments have not relented in their 
 efforts to enslave and poison the planet within their webs of fences, 
 pipelines, murder and money.  They must be confronted directly and it is 
 our hope that this call serves to bolster intergalactic solidarity in the 
 fight against capitalism, genocide, and slavery.  We welcome all actions 
 against these institutions and recommend the wide spread diffusion of this 
 call out.\n\nNo borders or prisons can contain or suppress our 
 intergalactic solidarity.\nLong live life!\nLong live freedom!\nLove and 
 Solidarity!\n\nThis action is part of the Decolonize the New World 2012: 
 West Coast Anti-Colonial, Anti-Capitalist Convergence in San Francisco 
 during Columbus Day weekend. The convergence is being called for by 
 Decolonize and Anti-Capitalist comrades in the Pacific Northwest and Bay 
 Area.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2012/09/26/18722426.php
