Wir besuchten den veganen, anarchistischen Gefangenen Osman Evcan im Hochsicherheitsgefängnis Kocaeli am 16. Tag seines Hungerstreiks. Dabei wurden wir Zeuge davon, wie der seit den Wahlen im November zuspitzende Staatsfaschismus mit seinen Repressionstechniken auch in den Gefängnissen zum Ausdruck kommt. Aufgrund der anarchistischen, veganen, libertären Ideen, für die Osman Evcan seit mehreren Jahren kämpft, nimmt die Repression gegen ihn zu. Er sieht sich Einschüchterungstechniken in Form von F-Typ-Haft konfrontiert. Sein Zugang zu veganer Nahrung wurde unterbunden, um ihn mit der Maxime „gehorche oder stirb“ zu konfrontieren.
Osman Evcan führt seinen Widerstand unter zunehmend erschwerten Haftbedingungen fort. Er stellt klar, dass er entschieden ist, seinen Hungerstreik fortzuführen. Während unseres Besuchs war er voller Hoffnung und Zuversicht und sprach uns zu, die von organisierter Staatsgewalt attackierten Bereiche nicht aufzugeben. Er betonte mehrmals, dass der einzige Weg zur Freiheit aus Widerstand und Kampf besteht. Osman Evcan versteht seinen Hungerstreik als einen Widerstand gegen die gegenwärtige Angst- und Hetzpolitik. Er ruft auf zu Aktionen und möchte andere dazu motivieren, sich für die eigenen Rechte einzusetzen.
Wir sollten Osman Evcan und uns selbst nicht Opfer werden lassen von Mechanismen, die jeglichen Protest im Keim zu ersticken versuchen. Lasst uns dem Aufruf Osmans folgen, der sein Leben auf Prinzipien der Solidarität, des Kampfes und der Ablehnung, andere Lebewesen zu unterwerfen, aufbaut und der durch diese Prinzipien in seinem Leben bedroht wird. Wir möchten Osmans Brief mit euch teilen, in welchem er die Beweggründe seines Hungerstreiks beschreibt. Bis alle Käfige und Gefängnisse zerstört sind! ABC Istanbul
ABC Istanbul: We visited vegan anarchist prisoner Osman Evcan at Kocaeli no:1 high security prison on his 16. Day of hunger strike. It is obvious that in parallel with the elections on November, the state fascism and oppression techniques have a reflection on the prisons. Because of the anarchist, vegan, libertarian ideas that Osman Evcan was fighting for, for many years; the pressure on him increases. Osman Evcan is now facing with F type Prisons intimidation policies. His access to vegan food is blocked. And he is facing with the imposition : “ obey or die”.
Devletin savaş, katliam ve imha politikalarına karşı anarşistler ve hayvan özgürlükçüler vicdanî reddini açıklıyor!
Son birkaç ay içerisinde, devlet, zaten yıllardır sürdürdüğü savaş ve baskı politikalarını topyekûn bir imha sürecine dönüştürdü. Yüzlerce insan ve hayvan hayatını kaybederken, devletin açtığı savaşın yaralarını sarmak çok kolay olmayacak. Türkiye’de hükûmet tarafından herkesin önüne sanki zorunlu bir gündem malzemesiymiş gibi atılan ve 7 Haziran genel seçimlerinden bu yana bine yakın insan, devletin şiddet ve çatışma ortamı nedeniyle hayatını kaybetti. Kaç hayvanın hayatını kaybettiğini bilmiyoruz bile… Devletin “özel güvenlik bölgesi”, “sokağa çıkma yasağı” gibi tanımlamalarla günlerce sürdürdüğü, insanı çileden çıkaran uygulamalarla, Lice’de, Cizre’de, Silvan’da, Nusaybin’de, Yüksekova’da ve daha birçok yerde insanlar günler boyunca bombalandı, kurşunlandı, en basit yaşamsal ihtiyaçların karşılanması dahi engellendi. Devletin akılalmaz bu uygulamalarını hiçbir şekilde kabul etmedik ve etmeyeceğiz.
Çatışmanın, şiddetin, savaşın ve katliamların bizzat devlet eliyle tırmandırıldığı şu günde ve ortamda, birçok sosyal hareket ve farklı mücadele kulvarları arasında yükselen dayanışma ise devleti oldukça korkutuyor. Halk ise, yönetilenler ve yönetenler arasındaki bir çatışmadan ziyade, yönetilenlerin ve ezilenlerin kendi arasında büyüyen bir düşmanlığa sürükleniyor. Bizler anarşistler ve hayvan özgürlükçüler olarak, bu iç savaşın ve militarist kıyım makinesinin bir parçası olmayacağız. Zalimlerin çıkar ve sömürü savaşında ölmektense, devlete, kapitalizme, tekno-endüstriyel uygarlığa karşı, insan-hayvan-doğa diye ayırmadan, topyekûn kurtuluş ve özgürleşme mücadelesinin özneleri olmayı tercih ediyoruz. Bu anlamda devlete, orduya, kapitalizme, hayvan katliamlarına ve ekosoykırıma karşı 28 Kasım 2015 (Cumartesi) saat 13:00’da infiAl’de total/vicdanî retlerimizi açıklıyoruz.
NOT: Devletin savaşının insan kaynağı olmayı reddedip total/Vicdani retlerini açıklayacak daha fazla yoldaş bizimle iletişime geçebilir. Retlerini bizzat açıklamayacak olan arkadaşlarımız, ret açıklamalarını bizimle paylaşarak etkinlikte okunmasını sağlayabilir.

Turkiet har ihärdigt förnekat att man skickat vapen till terrorister i Syrien.
Nu avslöjar domstolsdokument att delar till missiler och handgranater smugglats till rebeller.
Som senare anslutit sig till IS, skriver Reuters.
Det har tidigare förekommit rapporter om att den turkiska underrättelsetjänsten MIT hjälpt till att förse islamistiska rebeller i Syrien med vapen. Något som i förlängningen bidragit till framgångarna för terrorgruppen Islamiska staten, IS, som efter de senaste dagarnas strider nu uppges kontrollera halva Syrien. Vapenleveranserna har förnekats av regeringen i Ankara.
Så sent som på onsdagen sa en talesperson för president Erdogan under ett möte i Washington:
– Turkiet har aldrig skickat vapen till någon grupp i Syrien.
Avslöjas av hemliga dokument
Men i hemliga domstolsdokument som Reuters tagit del av vittnar ett stort antal poliser om MIT:s ljusskygga affärer med jihadister.
Även åklagare bekräftar uppgifterna för Reuters.
Nyhetsbyrån uppger att vapenleveranser ska ha ägt rum i slutet av 2013 och början av 2014.
I sin iver att få bort Syriens president Bashar al-Assad från makten ska Turkiet – enligt Syrien och några av Turkiets allierade i väst – ha låtit både vapen och rebeller ta sig över landets gräns in i Syrien. En del av dem ska sedan ha anslutit sig till IS, skriver Reuters.
Enligt domstolsdokumenten ska delar till missiler och handgranater ha körts över gränsen i lastbilar som ledsagats av MIT och sedan vidare till rebellkontrollerade områden i Syrien.
En av lastbilsförarna vittnar om att fordonet lastats vid flera tillfällen från ett utländskt plan på flygplatsen i Ankara.
En arresteringsorder mot en annan chaufför som Reuters tagit del av, avslöjar att en av leveranserna enligt polisen varit avsedda för ett al-Qaida-läger nära Syriska gränsen.
Presidenten: Var hjälpsändning
Fyra av MIT:s fordon ska ha genomsökts av turkisk polis efter att åklagare fått tips om smugglingen.
Tre av dem stoppades den 19 januari förra året och ett av dem den 7 november 2013, skriver Reuters.
Enligt åklagarens rapport ska de tre sista lastbilarna ha släppts igenom efter att agenter från MIT hotat polisen och fysiskt emotsatt sig att fordonen genomsöktes.
Presidenten Tayyip Erdogan har erkänt att de tre lastbilarna tillhörde MIT, men hävdat att det rörde sig om en humanitär hjälpsändning.
Trots det riskerar nu åklagarna som beordrade tillslagen mot lastbilarna att åtalas. De påstås ha avslöjat statshemligheter och ha befläckat regeringen och fått den att framstå som villig att hjälpa terrorister, skriver Reuters. Även det framgår enligt nyhetsbyrån av domstolsdokument man tagit del av.
– Något som är ett brott kan inte vara en statshemlighet, säger de båda åklagarnas advokat till Reuters.
Även ett 30-tal poliser riskerar nu att åtalas för militärt spionage och och försök till statskupp, enligt ett annat domstolsdokument.
