Everyone in the streets on N15: The crisis must be paid by THEM!

There's some initiatives at the spanish state using a method that was
tried before. Here, economy has existed based on building industry so
politicians and banks could speculate with the land, rising up on the
media the themes of squatting and opening squatted social centres, most of
them anarchist/libertarian but with people from many ideologies working
together.
It was all on TV and newspapers for a while because it was a problem that
affected to everybody, people live with more than 30 years with their
parents or have to mortage for decades. Then an email appeared calling
everybody to gather at a significant place on the city they lived, so if
your city didn't appear on that you had to add it and forward. The message
was clear, against politicians and bank speculators. The message gathered
thousands of people in many towns and cities, of different classes and
ideologies, though repression was equally brutal to all. That didn't stop
the demonstrations to be repeated again and again, with more messages on
the internet (started per week, then one per month, etc) it happened
similarly to the protests of the iraq war, without leaders. When people
had to collectively decide there where to go, many times it was decided
when someone sang loud to go to the parliament or whatever and people
began singing with him/her. Repression was put on the news, and because of
arbitrary arrests and police theaters the first assembly was made, where
people from all ideologies (even contrary) held the meetings to help for
the arrested people's trials, like anarchist, republican, communist...
many of them tried to gain power and control "the masses" on their own
benefit. The movement was divided when elections came and there was people
believing that handling and negotiating with power there would have been
some change. Many others made campaign for active abstention. Then
government made a ministry of houses, people simulated to believe the lie
or something and now we are in the same situation but with economic
crisis. There are still existing webpages of that, which can be considered
a huge ephimeral movement or momentum with mobilizations made by many
different people with the same problem. The webpages were created after,
so they are quite publicitary, but they have all the info about haw many
mobilizations in how many places and how many people. It is:

So what? -well, precisely the economic crisis will affect the housing
sector which is currently going down. Some days ago, another e-mail began
to circulate on the internet, with the same characteristics:

NOTE: i had problems with the translation, i've inserted explanation notes
between , cause i don't have a dictionary with me.

"""""""""

A new e-mail's on the internet convening gatherings/demonstrations against
the crisis the 15th of november, coinciding with the international summit
that pretends to make a refoundation of capitalism.

Everyone in the streets on N15: The crisis must be paid by THEM!

The next 15th of November the world leaders will gather to prepare a new
plan against the crisis.

Containing United States' bank crisis has costed 700.000 million dollars!!!
5 more times of what United Nations approved to reach the Objectives of
the Millenium!!! And european costs are even higher. It's a shame!!!

In Spain the government is giving 100.000 million euros to the same banks
that are----------to lots of families bacause they can't pay the mortgages
.

Months ago thousands of people went out to the streets for a vivienda
digna and we were
already calling attention to the dangers of the burbuja inmobiliaria
. Now that it has exploted, is it US
who are going to pay it?

During years they've made rich themselves and now they announce sacking
, salary cuts , closing
of business, "giving up" the Kioto protocol...

It seems clear that the big political parties govern for the banks and
that big sindicates are not going to say anything. They've even been
congratulated by bankers and businessmen! Only gente de a pie can denounce it.

They privatize benefits and socialize losings . They think
we're stupid? Are we going to permit it? Of course not.

Next Saturday 15th of November at 17:00 we will get out to the streets in
all cities.

We have time and capacity enough to spread the word and organize ourselves.
Doesn't matter if they invite Zapatero or not, we have
to colarnos in that summit...

PASS IT, TRANSLATE IT, ADAPT IT, AND MAKE THE NET TREMBLE!!!(and the banks)

MAKE THEM PAY THE CRISIS!!!
