[Imc-communication] imc-belgium disaffiliation proposal and where it is heading or isn't heading

[christophe callewaert]

Hey Laila,

I only say that imc-liège now also agrees that we are doing good work
and that you can't see anything wrong at the website. 

But they go on repeating that there has been a stalinist-maoist-whatever
take over. A mysterious take over that left no track on the website. And
they have no proof of that except some digging in the personal history
and personal relations of a few volunteers of imc-belgium. Do you really
find it normal that is up to me to proof they are wrong?

What the real reasons might be? Dunno, I guess a lot of personal
feelings, frustration and lack of trust from both sides like in most
conflicts. And above all a complete different vision on what Indymedia
can or could be. But I leave that to the mediator to find out.

greetings,

christophe
imc-belgium

Is it that they take pleasure in lying and spreading rumours, or do they have any reason, other than what is stated in the critizism, to act as they do?
