Warsaw 11.11.11
Again groups of the extreme right have tried to march through Warsaw. Nationalists and Neo-fascists from across Poland as well as from abroad have come to the capitol to allegedly demonstrate their patriotism. With it, they have left behind horrified residents, injured police, torn-up streets, burnt media vehicles, smashed bus stops, demolished cars.
![Click on image to see full-sized version dsc_0061.jpg](../cache/imagecache/local/attachments/nov2011/460_0___30_0_0_0_0_0_dsc_0061.jpg) By 9 in the morning close to
50 militant nazis with bats in-hand patrolled Trech Krzyzy square
looking for a confrontation. At 11:30 another group of nationalists
attacked people coming from Nowy Swiat street, but they were met with
resistance. The police arrived and intervened. As the first arrests of
the neo-fascists began antifascists were forced into Krytyka Polityczna,
a November 11th friendly bar. The legal gathering the “Colorful
Independence” manifestation along with the antifascist blockade have
come under attack from groups of neo Nazis armed with metal pipes. They
have burnt the TVN news van, along with the Polsat Polish news company
and Polish Radio cars, and members of the Independence March have
attacked the Russian embassy and the Belvedere. Gathering at
Constitution Square the “patriots” have torn up the cobblestones and
attacked the police. Into the night, violent fascists roved the city,
“patriots” hunting for people. The one place where you could feel safe
was the antifascist zone on Marszalkowska street – thanks to the
collective strength of the “Colorful Independence” manifestation and the
antifascist blockade. It’s hard to imagine what would have been, if the
“March of devastation in the name of Independence” would have entered
the center of the city. But that, we prevented.
Now the organizers
of the march, ONR (Radical Nationalist Camp) and Młodzież Wszechpolska
(All Polish Youth) are counting on societies short memory, trying to
distance themselves from their hooligan comrades. If they wouldn’t have
destroyed the city, terrorized the public with countless injured – we
might think it’s funny. But the impudence and hypocrisy of the leaders
of the extreme right has long since ceased to be funny. The organizers
of the Independence March invited and ushered in the most aggressive
groups from all over Poland. Accompanying them in their buses were the
leaders of the nationalists and hooligans and together spread their
terror. The right-wing populist, Janusz Korwin-Mikke, personally
encouraged violence!
Help also came from the right-wing media, who
for weeks have manipulated public opinion, fueling the aggression. And
how effectively: half the city demolished and terrorized from morning to
night – Mr. Editors Ziemkiewicz and Struzik – these are you patriots?
For years we have warned that the extreme right is a great threat in
this country. It would seem that a long list of the victims of the
nationalist, neo-fascist, and racist attacks in the last months would be
enough to understand the scale of the danger. Obviously not. Maybe
today – Independence Day, which brought the brutal violence of the
demonstration – will help the public, journalists, city hall, and all
parts of society understand that the problem is real and must be fought.
If the current state continues, as antifascists from the Novemeber
11th coalition we will continue to take the streets, we will continue
to barricade, we will stand in the streets and scream “no pasaran.” We
see no alternative – if not us, then who? Thank you, all Varsovians
and everyone who came together with us to stand in the way of this
plague. It required dedication and determination from you. You were
incredible! Again we kept them from the center of the city. For an end
to fascist marches under the cover of historic events. No pasaran!
