	Worker-communist Party of Iran - The Obvious Lessons of Berlin, on Iran after the 'Elections' by Mansoor Hekmat
		The sham Berlin conference trials and long-term prison and exile verdicts imposed on some of the most lenient critics of the Islamic Republic of Iran have, more than anything else, politically vindicated those opponents of the Islamic Regime who disrupted German-2nd Khordad plans to promote Islam and the Islamic state.
		At the Berlin conference, the 2nd Khordad aimed to present an image of a different Iran and a different Islamic Republic, to be backed by the West vis-à-vis its opponents.
		On the contrary, the Berlin conference was transformed into a scene of immense opposition against the entirety of the Islamic regime, the German government and the reactionary pro-government 'opposition.' Survivors of the slaughtered generation, progressives and primarily Communists shut the farce down.

	BERLIN CONFERENCE OF IRAN AFTER ELECTIONS ENDED IN CHAOS (Site not responding. Last check: )

		Total PM concentrations in Berlin were estimated to be comprised of approximately one third local traffic inputs, one third other sources in Berlin and one third from sources outside of Berlin.
		The consensus of the conference was that the EU is not likely to change the monitoring standard from PM to PM although it is widely considered that it is the 2.5 fraction which is most deleterious to human health.

	(ATN) Berlin Conference Overview
		Our deepest impression from the conference is that the most important and productive approach possible to saving the lives of those already infected was simply not on the table there -- not among the scientists, not among the physicians, and not among the activists.
		Our conference coverage will include at least two others -- a protease inhibitor which received much attention at the conference (although it is limited by major supply problems), and an LTR inhibitor, topotecan, which is now in human trials for cancer.
		The clear impression at Berlin was that the whole world is accepting the lack of progress in AIDS treatments as inevitable, and overlooking the fact that the entire situation could be turned around in a rapid, straightforward and relatively inexpensive way, if there were the institutional will to do so.

	RightCyberUp: Report from Berlin Conference
		The May 31-June 2 conference at Berlin's Free University was the first known conference hosted jointly by various ex-member organizations in Germany.
		Ex-members at the Berlin conference said their own experiences were uncannily similar to those in other groups.
		In fact, one of the panelists at the conference, the engaging Manfred Neumann, said that when he first read Siegfried Dannwolf's book about the NAK movement, he was astounded that his story did not come from an American-based group (NAK is based in Germany but has roots from England).

	The Congress of Berlin
		The Congress of Berlin was not the start of the "Scramble for Africa," but it laid down the rules that governed the European conquest of Africa for the next fifteen years.
		The Congress produced the Berlin Act of 1885 which established the "conventional basin of the Congo" (bigger than the geographical basin) and opened it to European free trade, made it neutral in times of war and promoted efforts to end the slave trade.
		The most important consequence of the Berlin Act was the reduction of tensions that had resulted from the French explorations in the Congo basin (Savorgnan de Brazza, 1876-1877), the establishment of Belgian posts in the Congo (1879-1884), the French invasion of Tunisia (1881), and the British takeover of Egypt (1882).
