[RABBIT - THE - CUBAN - MILITANT]

[Eastside Revolt]

this happened a while ago, tough... they had a website called "killhim.nu", where they collected money to rent an assasin to kill Bush. norwegian authorities shut it down after about two weeks.

:lol: How much was collected? Killing Bush wouldn&#39;t help but killing his whole administration MIGHT make a difference. Good publicity in some places though...

This raises a discussion about Propaganda of the Deed, do you ever think this would be an effective method of political action? Would you condone such action from a political (rather than a personal hatred) standpoint?

Heh, yeah, well, in fact: That&#39;s good enough for me. Well, about the Rap Group - The name means "Street Parliament" - And they&#39;re too also self-declared communists, in fact&#33; Which makes this kinda ultra-actual for us. Go the "Gatas Parlament"&#33; They even have a Swedish guy on the set, he&#39;s called for "Promoe":)

The Assasin Site. (http://www.killhim.nu)
Enjoy :D

[Purple]

the site went down after a very short while, and after that Gatas Parlament just scanned the court order to close the site, probably to make some controversy concerning free speach and such.

but the site isnt functional anymore, i think it was just a not so very serious fad..

Well its already been tried and failed, so no :P
Unless people want to create an anarcho-communist revolution, popping off cappies is only going to lead to temporary disorder within a capitalist society, it does nothing to radically change the way people think, and in some cases it turns them OFF revolutionaries, who are painted thus as killers.

[Non-Sectarian Bastard!]

Exactly.

I should add, that the killhim.nu campaign was a satire and not meant seriously. It was a satire on another action in Norway; a group collected money to place an add in the Washington Post, declaring that the Norwegian people do not support the war in Iraq. They collected enough money and ofcourse it had zero effect.

Love the clip though.

Norwegian and rap are words that don&#39;t belong in the same sentence.

[Anti-establishment]

very true

[OleMarxco]

Don&#39;t diss Norwegian rap, punk&#33; :angry:
The translation is choppy at parts and not true.
The Street Parliament&#39;s home-page (http://www.gatasp.no).
People mostly dig the GP here in Norway, and sympathize them as very humorous people fighting against authority, so don&#39;t think it NECESSARILY turns them off revolutionaries&#33; They actually have a large base of support&#33; :)

You can download the original song of their website, for the non-Norwegians who can&#39;t find their way through the website:

[OleMarxco]

Surely effective, but ethical? NAA&#33; But who CARES, right? ETHICS ARE BUT A BURGEOUIS CONTRAPTION&#33; A political reason is more than an invidual selfish one, but is a selfless one? This becomes rather hard to define&#33; But I&#39;d prefer more discretè and fancy methods, than this grenade-throwing. After-all - Bush has "killed" alot of people :D

[iwwobblie]

Norwegians should stick to black metal. :P

youre not very open minded are you...?

[OleMarxco]

Perhaps we are being a bit nationalistic here, are we a bit, I presume? ;)
Okay, so he&#39;s A BIT wrong. Even though we scandinavians invented black metal, doesn&#39;t mean we only can DO black metal. Gatas Parlament is surely a proof of that&#33; :D

[Severian]

I like "Fucking USA" better (http://www.robpongi.com/pages/comboFUCKINGUSAHI.html)

Contrary to the stupid commentary, it&#39;s south Korean, not north Korean.

[iwwobblie]

Relax,I&#39;m just busting your balls,damn nationalists. :rolleyes:

[OleMarxco]

Okay, it&#39;s excused. We (I and Purple) hasn&#39;t just yet to learn to overcome our nationalistic tendencies, sorry - Atleast you have some apologizes from ME, but I &#39;ron&#39;t now &#39;bout Purple over&#39;ere? ;)

In my opinion it&#39;s fully justifiable, as it&#39;s self-defense of the workingclass. But is it effective? No&#33;

Bush will then be replaced by a more conservative war mongering leader. The people will accept even less freedom to combat those "crazy leftists" and even support their leadership more. And it will result in an all out war of the government against leftists, which will pretty much destroy us as a movement. Setting us back for maybe decades.

Ill consider it...



but you also have to be aware of the Scandinavian "Dænse Bænds"(falsly translated to "dance bands").. Swinging Baby, Yeah&#33; Scandinavians pretty much invented the damn genre. Beat that, punk-o&#33;
