We set up something like this in the Lower East Side called the eviction watch where if the cops showed up to evict a squat phone numbers had been collected of people who were willing to show up and stop it. About 5 people had all the numbers and each squat had those numbers. If the cops showed up the people under threat called all 5 people with all the other numbers and they all started calling people on the list. We were able to turn out hundreds of people in a short amount of time and it was amazing.

I learned this in Nicaragua from the Sandinistas who learned it from the Cubans. People should set up block by block groups which can link to a central neighborhood one. Each block elects a block coordinator who is responsible for meetings and reporting to other block captains. The people who already know each other set up block security and other positive block activities like food and medical assistance. If state or hooligan elements come onto the block everyone responds and kids who act as runners and have been already to who to go to on other blocks in the hood go and call on their neighbors to come to the block with problems for a massive rapid show of force.

Tunisia does not have any substantial anarchist groups. Our goal is to reduce the amount of government and thereby increase the amount of liberty. To the extent that Tunisians would like our advice on how they ought to proceed, we will give it to them.

Hey, our second document is going to be advice and tactics for those Tunisians participating in riots or who otherwise find themselves subject to government crowd dispersal members. This will be made on a collaborative online document to which I'll send you the link in a bit. Can you please assist, and bring in others with experience in these matters?

First document available here. http://www.facebook.com/l/178eeM6zc3yP24MwaotbbSSKQvQ;www.dailykos.com/story/2011/1/15/936628/-Guide-to-safety-for-Tunisians,-please-distribute

Another, advising on the establishment of secure, net-based revolutionary networks, will be out soon.
As I've noted here over the past two weeks, factions of Anonymous, including quite a few Tunisians, have been supporting the Tunisian people in their current revolution against the corrupt and undemocratic government that had ruled over them for years. Our efforts have now switched from DDOS attacks
