This is why I want you to show it to all these police officers here.
So alltogether !
Germany, cops state - we are so fucking sick of you !
And those 5000 people in 40 left wing projects,
who where searched by police officers all over Germany this morning,
accused of having formed terroristic unions,
are now here to block G8.
We all here have the goal to block G8.
Never again Germany.
On the morning of 9 May the German National Advocacy started searching
searching 40 left wing projects, offices and private places.
There were 800 Police officers involved.
The reason that the suspects may have formed terroristic unions by paragraph 129 a.
It would be goal of the unions to disturb the summit with fire assaults.
The decision of the searches names 17 suspects.
That is the reason why today in Germany and Europe
there are many solidary demonstrations.
We are not afraid of you !
There were two decisions for the searches.
One had the accusation of forming terroristic cells and planning fire assaults on G8.
The other was the persecution of the militant groug MG, that had (quotation) taken responsibility for several assaults.
This search was related to proceedings which are going on for some years now.
These proceedings have not yet have shown any relevant proof.
