A-Infos (en) Anarkismo.net: Colombian Political Prisoners sent greetings of solidarity to anarchist prisoners in Belarus by Grupo Bifurcación - Cruz Negra Anarquista (ca)

Note by Bifurcación: This letter is written by two Colombian political prisoners who for 
some time have become closer to the anarchist struggle.-- Bogotá D.C. Colombia. June 2012 
-- Solidarity with Belarusian political prisoners --- From the Colombian prison of La 
Picota in our condition of political prisoners, of insurgent fighters who took up arms 
against state terrorism at the service of a criminal and disgraceful oligarchy that rules 
our country; we sympathize with all those anywhere in the world who rise up against all 
forms of oppression and domination over human beings and over the people.---Specifically, 
we support the day of action in solidarity with Belarusian political prisoners from June 
30 to July 2, most notably with fellow anarchists who were arrested in the fall of 2010 
and sentenced to spend 3 to 8 years in prison in May 2011, by a series of attacks on 
symbols of state and capital.

In October 2011, it was recognized their status as political prisoners thanks to the 
support of civil rights organizations, but even when in August 2011the penalties were 
remitted to 30 political prisoners, this didn't happen with any of the anarchist political 
prisoners, because of their refusal to accept their guilt and apologize to President 
Alexander Lukashenko, who in retaliation refused the amnesty to them.

We support this decent attitude, this moral firmness, this integrity, ethics and political 
loyalty to the rebel and revolutionary cause; and we demand to the Belarusian government 
their immediate release. We support as well the demand to cease the repression of the 
prison administration against political prisoners including the fellow anarchists.

Rebellion and resistance are not crimes, but peoples’ rights against all forms of 
oppression and domination,and is a duty for all who embrace the commitments of the 
revolutionary struggle against the total extension of capitalism, its system of 
international oligopoly and the global monopolistic concentration with its consequences in 
terms of environmental depredations, the growth of inequality, the exponential growth of 
poverty,insecurity, poverty and the needs of millions and millions of human beings,while 
2% of the world’s richest men hold more than half of global wealth.

Freedom for political prisoners in Belarus and for our fellow anarchists!
