Call for demonstration in front of the immigration detention centers
If the immigrants are arrested, they will be transferred to these three prisons:
1-Utrecht: Detentiecentrum Zeist(Richelleweg 13)
2-Amsterdam: Detentiecentrum Schiphol (Duizendbladweg 100)
3-Rotterdam: Detention Center(Portelabaan 7)
The repressive mechanism of the Dutch regime has created a war against immigrants, and is constantly attacking immigrants, like imprisoning the immigrants, which is part of the regime's repressive mechanisms; the regime try to criminalize the immigrants in order to use this excuse to keep them oppressed and imprison them; In fact, the basis of existence of crime is the regime's policy against society; Whoever exists as a prisoner (political or non-political) The main reason for his/her/they presence in prison is the social conditions that the regime has created for his/her/they society. Immigrants are a part of society whose identities, including skin color and place of birth, are classified as crime under the regime's racist algorithm; In fact, the only reason most immigrants are in prison is because they are immigrants, not anything else.
The Dutch regime not only represses and imprisons immigrants under various pretexts, but also does its best to ensure that immigrants are always a weak part of society. The Dutch regime is trying to keep immigrants weak in society, because the regime wants to be able to attack immigrants whenever it wants, and use them as a tool for political purposes and manipulate them to cover its problems.
It is a clear fact that in Europe (especially Western Europe), including the Netherlands, a new body has entered society that has re-created or expanded the proletarian section of society, this new body is the immigrants. Many immigrants (even those who have received a positive asylum answer) now have nothing to lose other than their job; In fact, these conditions have made the proletariat in Netherlands to be immigrants today, so it is the political, historical and social duty of every revolutionary fighter to prioritize the reconstruction of the militant proletariat. What is needed today more than anything else is the joint struggle of local people and immigrants against the enemy. The presence of local people with immigrants in front of prisons on New Year's Eve can show that our political and social problems and pains are the same.

Clarification on the call of demo in front of the immigration detention centers 31/12 + political standing on it
A letter to my comrades.
Dear comrades
1-Politically I believe any action that is going to be organise in solidarity with immigrants should be openly announced(according to a political statement, which I have taken it years ago), unless if this solidarity action need to be organise in a close group(for serious actions, which means violently attacking the interests of state and capitalism)
As I standed in my political statement, any problems of immigrants is a social issue, and should be solved in a way that create the social base of solidarity; in fact the society should be informed about these problems in order to take initiative for solidarity action.
2-There is a preparation group behind the demo of 31/12. The only reason why I called for demo by my name is: because the immigrant collectives are missing in the struggles; and I believe, first of all it is the duty of immigrants to create struggle in solidarity with other immigrants; so I as an immigrant(together with local comrades) took a initiative to call and do preparations for the demo. While I respect the struggles of locals in solidarity with the immigrants, but in the same time I believe that immigrants better understand the situation of each others (because of common problems that we daily face with them), so the local sometimes only must follow the struggles that immigrants in solidarity of other immigrants.
3- As I made a statment in the intervention of a demonstration(video of it was share in indymedia.nl), this period of time is more important than past to have open presence(protests) in the streets, because the state is try to criminalise the solidarity. The repression exist and I know it; but in my opinion we should face with the repression and stand against it than escape from it.(this is similar reason as the intervention happened in IND office at 8/12) , because I believe we shouldn't victimizing ourselves(even me who is almost a undocumented immigrant), but instead of it, we should stand against repression in the position of power. This is the only way that they respect us. We have to throw fear in their body, if we want to win.
4- I do not have problem to make self criticism, if it is necessary, as I have done it many times.
