Internationalistisches Aktionsbündnis Köln

WHY IAB-Köln?

The imperialists shackle the whole world to themselves and force worker and people to stay under their dominance by the means of hunger, plentiful deception and armed force. We are internationalists and use our united forces to show our solidarity with the workers, liberation movements and oppressed people all over the world. Just as they do we take part in the struggle against imperialist wars, fascism and all forms of national and neo-colonial oppression.

 

THE FOUNDATION OF IAB-KÖLN

The foundation of IAB-Köln was layed during the fights in Turkey and North-Kurdistan, which spread from May 2013 until June/July to nearly all cities. In this period antifascist, antiimperialist, anticapitalist, revolutionary, socialist, democratic and communist forces from Turkey, Kurdistan and Germany fought together under the roof ‘Taksim is everywhere – everywhere is Resistance/ Köln Initiative’. These forces agreed in Novembre 2013 that this alliance shall be permanent. Then the alliance’s name was decided to be changed to ‘International -Action- Alliance’ (IAB-Köln).
