the anti-ecological remodeling in Nicosia. We put up a banner which wrote "No to

Critical Mass

On Saturday the 10th of May 2008 we took part in a Critical Mass bicycle ride 
through the streets in the center of Nicosia against the cutting of trees. We 
where about 100 people on bicycles, skateboards and roller-blades. Banners 
against tree cutting, cars and anti-ecological remodeling where put up in three 
places in Nicosia: On the walls of Eleftheria square, in Diagorou street and 
near the presidential palace. Great fun!

Independent Mayday


On the 1st of May 2008 we organized the first independent (from 
parties/authorities) Mayday march. We gathered in Solomos square holding a 
banner which wrote "Paid Slavery is Terrorism. Auto-organize, Solidarity, Fight 
Back" and started marching towards Eleftheria square. Police (all in plain 
clothes) stopped us as Akel(the "communist" party that is in power) was having 
their usual Mayday parade and was going to go past the directing that we where 
heading. So in the end we went past Eleftheria square from the other side, 
continued through Ledra street, stopped at the end of Ledra street where the 
border is and turned around again towards Eleftheria square.

All the way we where giving out papers which mentioned why we where marching and 
shouted out slogans like "No slaves no masters, down with the capital and paid 
slavery", "We don't want unemployment, we don't want work, we want to live 
without masters", "In Cyprus, Greece and Turkey the enemy is in the banks and 
ministries", "Turkish workers are our brothers" etc.

Again the police didn't let us go inside Akel's parade. People from Akel shouted 
fascist as well as stupid things against us like "we don't want you here"(in a 
public square), "dirty people" and some "bodyguards" of the party said to the 
policemen that if they don't take care of us they will do it. This is meant to 
be the "communist" party of Cyprus. Of course some people of Akel came to 
support us.

Demonstration Against tree cutting in the center of Nicosia
On the 22/03/08 we took part in a demonstration against tree cutting in the 
center of Nicosia. The municipality is planning to cut many more trees to widen 
roads and make the place more "European". Instead of discouraging cars in town 
they are encouraging more and more as well as destroying the little greenery 
that is left which filters the towns air.

A banner was put up next to the cut trees which wrote "R.I.P."

A slogan that was shouted as we sat in the middle of the street and blocked it: 
If we don't organize in every neighborhood, or towns will become modern prisons!!

Anti War Demonstration

We took part in an anti-war demonstration which happened on the 22/03/08 and 
brought with us a banner that wrote "We are all Terrorists" and marched up to 
the American embassy together with other antiwar supporting organizations. We 
shouted slogans against war, capitalism and the police. At one point the police 
tried to block us from coming closer to the embassy by pushing us but they 
couldn't hold us back and we continued until getting to the fenced part on the 
other side close to the main entrance. The demo ended peacefully.

No Borders - Ledra street
On the 21/03/08 the Anti-Authoritarian Autonomous Action (Ada-kiprus), took part 
in an event for the opening of Ledra street border which has been a symbol of 
separation between Greek speaking Cypriots and Turkish speaking Cypriots when 
the UN drew a line with a green pencil. A banner was brought that wrote "No 
Borders No Nations No Armies". The police at first tried to stop us putting it 
up but the people complained and the banner was set up on the left side of the 
event. Small cardboard banners where put up with slogans like "here is Berlin", 
"Our only nation is all of earth", "all governments are fake-governments" and 
"We want Ekmek Kateifi(Turkish cake)". Also, fliers where given out which wrote: 
"No plan from 'above' will bring a solution", "Autonomy - Resistance" "Greek 
Cypriot - Turkish Cypriot Workers United" and informed people about a 
demonstration against Irak war which would take place the next day.
