NJ Sen Andy Kim Didnt Think About His Decision to Undermine Blockade 5/24 J Arena [HaNXUl1c5yc]
Don’t buy the hype on Andy Kim and the Democrats coming to the rescue at the Delaney Hall ICE concentration camp in Newark that the media and DP acolytes have been pushing about the momentous Memorial Day action. There has been a major upsurge in the struggle , with 300 detainees going on a hunger strike , raising an evolving list of demands that include an end to the deplorable conditions and due process. In standard practice ICE—-and let’s be honest, they did the same under the Dems — is working to break the strike by moving the leading activists to different parts of the gulag system . But the movement , led by courageous young activists , mounted a human blockade to prevent the ICE SUV and personnel carrier caravan from busting out of the camp to take the strike leader to another dungeon. Despite the intimidation of masked and heavily armed ICE paramilitaries, the movement had them penned in. Then the ‘friend ‘ of immigrants , the long time veteran of the national security state , genocide backer , aipac recipient , Andy Kim gets out there pleading with us to break the line , and that in exchange he and others would get to peek inside the ice caravan to accept ice’s promise that they were not taking anyone out. The movement told scab Kim to take a hike, and at that moment ICE used this diversion to launch an aggressive assault , pepper spray and all, that pushed back our fighters and allowed their caravan of death — think Pinochet chile — to break out….the Democrats have been coming by Delaney for photo ops, to posture as friends, but our movement, our determined resistance , exposed their real role… and as we discussed afterwards , the reason the Elizabeth and Newark concentration camps are even open is because of the Democrats , genocide Joe’s intervention to overturn the nj ban on private prisons , which none of the nj delegation , from Menendez jr—like his old man a killer backer of USA imperialism against Cuba and around the world —to uber Zionist Cory Booker, ever seriously fought back against … despite the traps set by the Democrats , the movement is advancing , now we have to go on the offensive , with escalating demands and actions , and ideally running our own candidates on our democratically arrived at program
