ANTISPECIESTIST ANARCHISTS PROTEST A HUNTING EXPO (Athens,Greece)

ANTISPECIESTIST ANARCHISTS PROTEST A HUNTING EXPO

We have received a reportback from a demo against hunting in Athens, Greece. Read their words below:

“On Sunday 2 April, a group of antispeciesists was gathered outside the Mediterranean Exhibition Center in Athens to protest against hunting.

A translated part of the antispeciesists call is following:

Antispeciesism and anarchy: connecting the struggles

Human imposition on non-human animals is perhaps the most common and normalized form of violence. In particular, hunting, which has always been a show off power of the ruling class and has a historical role in the imposition of man over non-human animals. Proclamation of power and masculinity are the main characteristics of hunting. The young boys become men by executing and posing with the lifeless bodies of those they have murdered.

Toulouse,France : Incendiary Equinox

Toulouse: Incendiary Equinox

  Toulouse, between March 21 and 22, to celebrate spring.

While the rioters were treading the pavement in search of action, navigating between police vans and unmarked cars full of Nazis, it was in the quiet of the night that we burned down an antenna at the top of Pech-David.

Against progress and technology, with a thought for Alfredo Cospito, Tortuguita murdered during the occupation of the Atlanta forest, and Boris who carries in his heart his love for antennas as much as we do.

For all the people who don’t want to wait anymore: there are targets everywhere.

We can become more dangerous.

PS: since this action and the related text many things have happened. We rejoice in the chaos in the cities and in the fields, we have hatred for the cops and we have rage for all the people harmed by these scumbags.

Athens,Greece: ANARCHISTS SABOTAGE THE REDEVELOPMENT WORKS IN STREFI HILL AT EXARCHEIA AREA.

ANARCHISTS SABOTAGE THE REDEVELOPMENT WORKS IN STREFI HILL.
9th April, Streffi Hill, Athens.

“The Hill of Strefis is under police occupation.

The works carried out in the last six months are destroying the flora and fauna of the hill, while the operation of its regeneration seeks to isolate it from the movements of the area and the neighbourhood in general, aiming to make it a tourist attraction.All this with the cooperation of the Municipality and the real estate and investment company PRODEA, which through the regeneration of the hill seeks to expand its capital in the neighbourhood.

So in an effort to put obstacles to the projects that are being carried out on the hill we have taken the following actions of sabotage:

Frankfurt (Germany): Arson attack against the Forestry Commission

Frankfurt : Arson attack against the Forestry Commission

Full of anger and rage against the evictions and clearings of the [occupied] Fecher and Heibo forests, last night we set fire to a car of the Hessian Forestry Office in Frankfurt am Main.

At the beginning of January, the Forestry Office of the city of Groß-Gerau (in Hessen) issued an administrative decree which gave a legal basis for the eviction of our friends from the occupied forest of Fechenheim. The occupation was against the extension of the A66 freeway, which was evicted by massive police violence and the repression of the Hessian justice. Thus, the Forestry Commission is a stooge of the cops and the judiciary in order to impose the interests of the Autobahn GmbH. (see text: https://teufelsbruch.blackblogs.org/2023/01/28/der-fecher-ist-geraumt/ )

In the village of Heibo, near Dresden, the Saxon Forestry Administration also played an important role in the eviction and clearing of the occupied area, and cleared the forest in the interest of a local gravel company. We were pleased to learn of the incendiary attacks on the Saxon Regional Forestry Office (Sachsenforst) in connection with the evacuation of Heibo, and we send fiery greetings to Finn, who is still locked up behind prison walls.

Le Figaro, March 31, 2023

The tax center in Bron was the target of a fire on Thursday night. Twenty firefighters were called around 2:30 am for a fire that broke out at the entrance of the tax center. Several tens of m2 of the building were destroyed. However, the smoke spread to a large part of the center, requiring its temporary closure on Friday.

An investigation was opened, since inside, tags “We will go until the Elysee” accompanied by the acronym A of the anarchists were written on the walls of the building, details the investigation services.

Visiting Lyon this Friday to launch a consortium to fight against cigarette trafficking, Gabriel Attal, the Minister of Public Accounts went on site between noon and 14 hours.

Greece: Rage and solidarity from Thessaloniki March 2023

Rage and solidarity from Thessaloniki March 2023

Tuesday 28th March 2023, in Thessaloniki, 500 people demonstrated in support of the social movement in France. The communiqué concerning the comrades of S., who is in coma following the repression in Saint-Solinia, was read in English and in Greek.

On our banner, the slogan was taken up which was used after the racist murder of the young Kostas Fragoulis, shot by the police last December: the blood flows, calling for an uprising!

In France as in Greece, the bourgeoisie uses violence as a defense mechanism. In order to face them, let us build our solidarity beyond their borders.

We support all the victims of the repression in France.

We share your rage. Long live the revolution!

Chile : Words of Anarchist Comrades Mónica and Francisco in View of the Upcoming Trial

Words of Mónica and Francisco in View of the Upcoming Trial

Justice is already fine-tuning all the details for his big party, he will choose his best outfit and meticulously sharpen his sword. Nothing can go wrong at the moment when he shows himself for what he is: the executioner of the powerful.

The sword of justice has been kept in storage waiting for the key moment to strike the right blow to our bodies. That moment translated into punitive punishment will find its climax in the oral trial, which is already set for May 19. This trial is expected to be a long process of several months.

“It’s a struggle of resistance to not be buried alive! It is a struggle for hope, for freedom, for life itself.”
Prisoners of Korydallos Prison

Italy: EN/ IT/ FR/ ES/ GR/ DE, On Wednesday, April 19, 2023, anarchist Alfredo Cospito ended the hunger strike he began 181 days earlier, on Oct. 20, 2022.

Anarchist Alfredo Cospito ended his hunger strike undertaken since Oct. 20

On Wednesday, April 19, 2023, anarchist Alfredo Cospito ended the hunger strike he began 181 days earlier, on Oct. 20, 2022, inside the Bancali prison in Sardinia. The comrade, who is currently an inmate in the prison medicine ward of the San Paolo Hospital in Milan, had been on an all-out hunger strike for six months against the detention regime established by Article 41 bis of the Penitentiary Order (a regime to which he had been transferred on May 5, 2022) and against the hostile life sentence, which risked being the final sentence for the comrade at the end of the Scripta Manent trial.

The interruption of the hunger strike comes in the wake of the April 18 hearing in Rome at the Constitutional Court, which recognized the prevalence of mitigating circumstances vis-à-vis repeated recidivism in the case of all convictions for crimes whose fixed penalty is life imprisonment. This is the case of Alfredo, in that with the requalification (by the court of cassation, at the end of the Scripta Manent trial) of the charge inherent in the double explosive attack against the Caserma Allievi Carabinieri in Fossano on June 2, 2006, from “common massacre” (art. 422 c. p.) to “political massacre” (i.e., “massacre for the purpose of attacking the security of the state,” art. 285 c. p.), comrades Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino were facing a sentence of hostile life imprisonment and 27 years in prison, respectively, as requested by the Turin prosecutor’s office.

Rome Italy: About the constitutional court hearing on the convictions for the anarchists Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino in the Scripta Manent trial.

About the constitutional court hearing on the convictions for the anarchists Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino in the Scripta Manent trial (Rome, 18 April 2023)

Today the hearing took place in the constitutional court for the case of Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino concerning the accusation of political massacre (art. 285 c. p.) within the Scripta Manent trial.
The existing Cirielli law (year 2005, Berlusconi government) prevents mitigating factors from outweighing aggravating factors in the event of recidivism. Particularly in Alfredo Cospito’s case, this would have resulted in a definite sentence of life imprisonment despite the fact that the action he and Anna are accused of did not cause any victims.

The court therefore found this rule unconstitutional. What is more, reading the brief press release that came out of the courthouse, the court seems to have raised doubts of constitutionality in general with regard to all those cases where the fixed penalty is uniquely life imprisonment.

Bulldozer in Weelaunee Destroyed during WOA (usa)

Bulldozer in Weelaunee Destroyed during WOA

During the, “Week of Action,” a bulldozer-like machine with a subsequent drilling apparatus was completely decommissioned before it could continue to destroy more of the Welaunee forest on the South Black Hall plot.

The proposed huge-ass soundstage adjacent to proposed Cop City will also never be built!

We are advocates of actions that actually STOP WORK, & work gets STOPPED by directly confronting WORK, our enemies, & earth destroying machines.

Let it be remembered that though other gatherings & gardens are also good, these types of activities are only made possible by actions that DISABLE OUR ENEMIES from being able to work & gain territory.

Athens,Greece : ALFREDO OUT OF 41 BIS!

ALFREDO OUT OF 41 BIS!

Open assembly to organize a response commensurate with the importance of the situation

The struggle waged by anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito against the 41bis prison regime and the life imprisonment without parole has reached its most dramatic point. Notwithstanding the opening of contradictions (opinion of the DNAA, opinion of the DDA of Turin, opinion of the PG at the Court of Cassation, order of the re-examination of the Sibilla Operation) every time an institutional organism with effective power to resolve the question opened by the comrade has met, the most manectarian and warmongering faction of the State has invested all its political power to crush any possible opening.

We have said it too many times: Alfredo’s death sentence is now an established fact, if the comrade is still alive we owe it solely to his extraordinary resistance. The decision to lock up an anarchist in 41 bis prison regime for the first time, taken by the previous Draghi government and Minister Marta Cartabia, as well as the determination to persevere in this criminal choice by the new right-wing government of Meloni and the current minister Carlo Nordio, count as an act of war. The tip of the iceberg of the “internal front” of a larger war, which on the international level is fought between NATO and the Russian Federation, and which is being expressed in our home with an unprecedented attack against social antagonism, against conflictual unionism and especially against action anarchism.

Genoa, Italy: Claim for the incendiary attack on some vehicles of Iren in solidarity with anarchist prisoners (31 March 2023)

Genoa,: Claim for the incendiary attack on some vehicles of Iren in solidarity with anarchist prisoners.

Democracy cannot allow certain thoughts to be spelled out clearly, and certain words to be used with impunity, because they might catch on among the oppressed, the excluded. These words without stakes take on greater weight for me because they have cost me and will cost me more years in jail, but it is my way of resisting, of fighting back.
Alfredo Cospito (January 2021)

In the night of 31st March we attacked some vehicles of the IREN company with fire, Italy’s leading district heating service company, operating in electricity production and distribution and technology services.

IREN is a new company but with a veteran entrepreneurial posture in line with all other criminal multinationals like ENI and Benetton who profit from the destruction and plundering of territories around the planet. That was sufficient for putting the IREN group in our sights; if we then add news of recent weeks, that IREN struck agreements with the Israeli Mekorot water company implementing water apartheid to the Palestinian people, then the decision to attack it was more than spot on.
