Thursday 28.8. morning cops broke into Rigaer 94 in Berlin at the demand of the scumbag owner of the letterbox company Lafone. This latest attack comes during a period of re-militarization which includes the redirection of capital towards weapon production, as well as the reintroduction of forced military service as decided by the Bundestag on Wednesday.

Military aggression comes with intensified repression against the internal enemies of the state-capitalist system. So it is no surprise that our spaces where we come together to fight back are at the top of the list of targets of the state.

A state that protects and acts on behalf of capital, on behalf of companies of the military industrial complex such as Rheinmetall and the Israeli Elbit Systems, and on behalf of real estate speculators. A state that once again is forcing its youth to take up arms to secure Germany’s colonial position. This state is our enemy.

So on Thursday night we took our anger to the street. We were met with fists of solidarity and cheers from passersby, reminding us that there are many of us in this society that want to fight back.

Against their hierarchies, we fight for horizontality!

Against their rising authoritarianism, we fight for autonomy!

Against their isolation and repression, we strengthen our connections with each other!

Solidarity from the Rheinmetall Entwaffnen Camp!
