[Press Release] Anonymous- Operation Britain. October 15th 2011.

Citizens of Britain, We are Anonymous.




The riots that we have witnessed over the last week, whilst violent and misguided, are a product of decades of neglect inflicted on your country by various governments. We do not condone mindless thuggery, but that does not stop us from seeing the reality behind it.




Your politicians and the media do their best to avoid seeing that reality. They would rather manipulate public anger in order to cloud judgment and create division. They will use these riots as an excuse to withdraw civic freedoms, increase draconian police powers, and discourage legitimate protest. By placing their emphasis on mindless criminality, your politicians mask the extent to which a significant section of society is stuck in an impoverished way of life with little hope for the future.




Anonymous senses your displeasure and witnesses the iron fist of the state being used more and more often to put down dissent before it begins. We note also the ever increasing tide of propaganda issued to justify these repressive acts. The law is no longer the protector of the citizens but the protector of a wealthy few from the many, who have very little. Justice has become yet another commodity that only the wealthy can afford.




We sympathise with the anger that seethes under the facade of your country's diplomatic image. It is time to take a stand and realise that solutions will not be found in today's corrupt political landscape. You should seize this opportunity to rally for freedom. Anonymous stands with you in this struggle and will fight alongside you in the battle for permanent change. Let your enemies stand forewarned.




Saturday October 15th 2011 will be your opportunity for rebellion. We call on Britain to unite and organise peacefully. Unions, anti-cuts groups, community organisations, students, activists, citizens: you know your political system is not fit for purpose. Rally your supporters and stand together in holding mass protests in your major cities. Together you can send a powerful message to your government: you are the people of Britain and your voice WILL be heard.




Yours sincerely,

Operation Britain




We are Anonymous.

We are Legion.

We do not forgive.

We do not forget.

Expect us.

Hmm i have NOT heard about this vid on ANN,FB,Twitter and on IRC chats.

So for now fake.

[MrAnonymousOperation]

@Astro247z It is all over the OpBritain IRC, all over Facebook, and Twitter, its just you haven't encountered it yet, you should no there is no such thing as a "fake" anonymous.

[Astro247z]

@MrAnonymousOperation Oh well im sorry then and by fake i did not mean fake anon beacuse anybody can be Anonymous if they want to you either are one or not BUT by fake i meant Fake #OP.

[MrAnonymousOperation]

@Astro247z This is most certainly not a fake op haha

[Insomnijack95]

@MrAnonymousOperation Of course it's going to be on the OpBritain IRC, as OpBritain was made for this "Op". It hasn't been seen on any official or well regarded Op Chanels. I think this is one of those unwanted or unnaccepted Ops that have been coming up recently. I think this because of your punctuation. This may seem stupid, but any time I see a message from them, it's grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc. is flawless.

[MrAnonymousOperation]

@Insomnijack95 I did not write the press release, I merely made the video and pasted in the dialogue. I apologise for any grammar/spelling mistakes.

The UK government is all for bombing Libya,which NATO actually admits kills at least 8 civilians a day.

A few kids smash some windows(and the police stood back) people got killed,and now they are talking about clamping down on everything. Internet.twitter,facebook. Bringing in water cannon,rubber bullets and CS gas. The list goes on.

This countries politicians are corrupt and stupid all at once. Anything that gets up their nose is fine by me.

[MrAnonymousOperation]

@Firestarthe Raise the youth of today with minimal resources, whilst these MP's have huge house's, take money from the public sector and they get away with it!, why? because they are above the law, and they view people who protest as nothing more than cockroaches of society who hate the government "for no reason".

[imagineers0]

Donn your white robes and hoods.

[imagineers0]

Amnesty International doesn't wear hoods or have a control-freak motto.

[TheJudgeJoker]

@MrAnonymousOperation There are such things as fake Anons, FBI Posers, Turn Coats, OSA Scilons, etc.

[AgentRikuOfficial]

I hope this is the most successful operation. its on my birthday.

[ShookOnesTO]

lame.

@gypsyroselea Devil's army indeed. ALL religion is unsubstantiated horse pucky. The word courage, you wield like a pejorative spiked ball and chain, is as meaningless as any argument that hinges upon it. Why can't you have the courage to be anonymous, why do you have to BE somebody important? Does it satisfy some narcissistic notion of grandiosity deep within your psyche? Anonymous members do stand for what they believe in and they are counted... they just don't proudly stamp their name on it.

[xzorg69]

@gypsyroselea don't think you quite got the point. there is no leader of anonymous. did you think there was some fat guy under a bridge somewhere wearing a V mask? controlling it all?

[TannerOCampbell]

@gypsyroselea Also, legion is take from Mark 5:9 - "What is thy name?" And he answered, saying, "My name is Legion: for we are many."

We are legion is a reference to the group being made up of many constituents ... not that it's the anti-christ.

[TannerOCampbell]

@gypsyroselea That idiocy Romany. If Anonymous were public they would be arrested and put to death quicker than you could say "maybe that was a bad idea". When the nations of the world are against you, it's not a smart idea to go around handing out head shots (pun intended). Anonymous survives because it is exactly that, anonymous.
