Young Italian Anarchist Murdered by Italian Fascist Police

This is very tragic news. A young anarchist was shot in the head by Italian paramilitary police during street actions in Genoa. The police and military are getting more violent at these demonstrations as the world leaders and capitalists refuse to listen to the people. Sadly, this is one more death in the struggle against capitalist neoliberalism. Last month 4 people were killed in Papua New Guinea and over 30 died in Brazil during anti-globalization protests.

It's official. The New York Times has finally remembered its class interests and has decided to start driving a wedge into the anti-capitalist movement. If you ever wonder why this webmaster refers to the "boss" media, this article clearly shows how the capitalist bosses have dropped any pretense to objectivity, in order to demonize anarchists. How many anarchists were interviewed in this article? That's right. None.
