Revolutionary hearts burn forever! (Athens,Greece)

Revolutionary hearts burn forever! inside  A3 print out

Revolutionary hearts burn forever! pdf cover

——–

In the afternoon of October 31, a massive explosion blew up the third floor apartment of a building in the Ampelokipoi neighbourhood in Athens.

Anarchist comrade Marianna was pulled out from the rubble alive and is in a serious condition in the Evangelismos hospital, in the hands of the police. The anarchist comrade Kyriakos didn’t make it and did not survive. The police and subserviant media talk
of a sudden detonation during the preparation of an explosive device. They say (and write) much more. Chatter that will not find space in these few lines. The antiterrorist unit are foaming at the mouth, excited by the blood of the enemy within to throw in jail (and in the newspapers). The words that count are those of the
comrades, they are the only ones that will be taken into consideration.

An anarchist, somewhere

Rome, Italy: Claim for the burning of 17 cars at the Tesla dealership,Rome, 31 March 2025

Few people in the world today incarnate absolute Evil equal to that of the infamous technocrat billionaire Elon Musk. It would be simplistic though to see him as a classic cartoon “baddie”, a character which none the less suits him perfectly, without realising that this contemptible individual is only the product of an economic and social system marching towards its very self-destruction and that his expansionist ambitions symbolically sum up those of the system itself.

Officially entering the field of politics, all this is exemplified in his servility to Trump, who placed him in the front line of the reactionary, imperialist, sexist and supremacist offensive in course in the United States. In particular, as a prize for his millionaire support to the electoral campaign, the newly-elected president assigned his preferred Dark Maga leadership of the DOGE, body created ad hoc which rapidly spent itself in cuts and reforms aimed directly or indirectly at striking that slice of the population seen by the new elite as “surplus”.

Berlin (Germany): Fire at a microchip producer

Stopping the heart of the mega-machine
Fire to the microchip producer

Last night, on the site of the Berlin-Wuhlheide Technology Innovation Park, we set fire to electrical cabinets, power cables and a ventilation system at Micro Resist Technology. At a time when Germany is once again mobilizing unashamedly for military power and war-fighting capacity, with special budgets and compulsory military service, we are targeting the heart of the technological mega-machine with our sabotage, and also hitting one of the most sensitive points of civil-military collaboration – the production of microchips. This attack is a contribution to the protests against next Sunday’s National Veterans’ Day [in the context of massive rearmament in the country, Germany inaugurated its first “Veterans’ Day” since the end of the Second World War on June 15, to pay tribute to its veterans]. “Fire and flames“ rather than ”Glory and Honor” for militarism and the fatherland!

Miniscule giants at the crossroads of technology and warfare

The network of capitalist domination weaves ever tighter around us. As it does so, technological progress is the driving force that enables the destructive mega-machine to function and to penetrate ever more deeply into the most intimate aspects of our existence. Inert objects made of plastic and metal, equipped with sensors, microphones, lenses, microchips, etc., are increasingly becoming prostheses for social interaction, replacing genuine relationships and atrophying our cognitive capacities. At the same time, social networks, voice assistants, Artificial Intelligence, so-called “smart” appliances, facial recognition and many other surveillance instruments are tracking us, enabling the capitalist value-creation chain to absorb all our activities to an ever greater extent. Big Data makes Big Money. The implementation of such technologies in our daily lives shapes our very being, and the resulting algorithmic calculations increasingly decide and determine our future. Once we’ve become accustomed to them, these mechanisms operate with such omnipotence that most people can scarcely imagine extricating themselves from the digital grip. For many, the very thought triggers anxiety attacks. All that’s left, then, is a crowd of slaves to the machine, dependent, controlled, alienated and, most of the time, not even aware of this relationship.

Arson against drone manufacturer, Boeing subsidiary – Hood River, OR (USA)

In the early morning hours of July 23rd, an Insitu van was set ablaze while it sat in an empty lot across from their office in Hood River, OR. This fire was set, because the growth of the national security state poses an existential threat to all those who dream of free world. We act in total antagonism against those who enable and profit from militarism, policing and surveillance.

Insitu, a fully owned subsidiary of Boeing, develops and manufactures drone technology for military and law enforcement use. The Boeing Insitu RQ-21 Blackjack and MQ-27 ScanEagle surveillance drones have been integrated into weapons systems operated by the US Navy and Marine Corp. ScanEagle UAV’s are actively being utilized by the Saudi-led coalition forces as part of their ongoing military intervention in the Yemeni civil war.

(Italy) Post campaign: Call for long-term solidarity to Alfredo Cospito

We circulate this call out for Alfredo to receive more postal correspondence and we understand that it is also within the framework of the International Week of Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners, set from 23-30th August. Never a day alone, the anarchist hostages will endure, we’re always with them. Destroy the prisons.

Please, spread widely!

In order to break the isolation to which our anarchist comrade Alfredo Cospito is currently subjected through an almost total ban on mail, we call again to write him postcards and letters. This new callout to write him is also due to news reaching us from the Bancali jail where he’s held prisoner: Alfredo deems extremely opportune to keep on sending him correspondence, even unregistered, even just postcards, with or without sender’s address… If an avalanche of mail arrives, it’ll be more work for the screws working at the jail P.O.
We evaluated that registered mail sent to him is not as necessary as it has been so far, given that over 30 pieces of such mail have been blocked: on this subject, the Surveillance Magistrate must pass sentence: he’s obviously taking his sweet time (lawyers tells us it is standard procedure at the Bancali jail).

Düsseldorf (Germany): Double blow to rail traffic!

[Note of Sans Nom: In Germany’s seventh largest city, Düsseldorf, located in the North Rhine-Westphalia region, the “Angry Birds Commando” has been making headlines regularly for several years. In August 2024, for example, it claimed responsibility for a fire involving railway signaling cables in Mettmann, adding to its previous acts of sabotage against rail traffic: one in Düsseldorf in January 2024, and five others in the same city claimed in May 2023. After generously sharing a manual entitled “Burning Cables for Beginners” in the fall of 2024, it revisited its own vision of collapse in its Communiqué No. 4 published in January 2025, then claimed responsibility for the sabotage of three new telecommunications antennas in June 2025.

In the middle of summer, the “Angry Birds Commando” has caused yet another disruption just days before a huge rush: on the night of Wednesday, July 30 to Thursday, July 31, on one of Germany’s most important railway lines, between Duisburg and Düsseldorf, where more than 620 trains pass daily (excluding freight trains) and just a stone’s throw from the airport, a double simultaneous attack was carried out on the cables along the tracks. The first damaged nearly 60 meters of cable near a signal box, and the second, a kilometer further on, destroyed five fist-sized cables, each measuring 20 meters in length. Responsibility for this sabotage was claimed in Angry Bird Commando’s communiqué no. 6, published on July 31 on de.indymedia, which we have translated from German below.]

Railway sabotage – Communiqué No. 6
Switch off the system of destruction

The Rhine-Alpine corridor connects Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Duisburg, Cologne, Frankfurt, Mannheim, Basel, Zurich, Milan, and Genoa, some of Europe’s most significant economic centers. In the Duisburg-Düsseldorf-Cologne region, this corridor encounters one of its many bottlenecks. Any disruption to rail traffic at this location has direct or indirect repercussions on this economic area due to the rerouting of the impacted trains.

$hile: Update on the third and fourth weeks of the trial against compañeros Aldo and Lucas Hernández

Update on the trial against comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernández.

On Monday, August 4, the third week of the trial against comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernández began. Both were detained in connection with the investigation into the explosive attack against the National Gendarmerie Directorate.

During these more than 10 days of trial, the evidentiary phase has continued, with various witnesses and experts presenting testimony that supports the prosecution’s case presented by prosecutor Claudio Orellana. Specifically, last week saw the testimony of gendarmerie officials who were at the scene on the day of the explosion. Part of the routes taken by the individuals who planted the device, at least one of whom has been identified by the police as Aldo, have also been revealed, although no material evidence has yet been presented to reliably prove their involvement in the incident.

(Chile) Words from fellow anarchists Aldo and Lucas Hernández

For an August of black memory of struggle…

The absence they leave behind for their comrades must have an impact on the daily lives of those who knew them, those who exchanged more than a few words with them must miss them, and how could they not? Who is prepared for the death of a brother or sister? Even if we can put ourselves in the situation, the scenario, there is no certainty of being prepared. All feelings are personal and individual; what one feels inside must be experienced firsthand in order to speak of the loss.

We did not walk with you, we did not know you, but our comrades bear witness to your determined and resolute journey to face this reality.

These lines are to bring Luciano, Belén, and Lupi to mind, so that no comrade has to die in a distant memory, but rather be present in every moment that one decides to confront the establishment.

For Luciano, Lupi, Belén, Santiago Maldonado, Macarena Valdés, and so many others who died or were killed…

First week of a Black August.
Aldo and Lucas from “La Gonzalina” and “Santiago Uno.”

Berlin,(Germany): Police raid in Rigaer94

It’s been almost four years, but today they knocked again: at 6.00 in the morning 27/08 we woke up to loud voices, chainsaws, ankle grinders and hammers on the doors. Out of 200 cops which were in the street, around 100 entered the house. Supposedly there were in total 700 cops related to the raid deployed in the city.

As usual the cops used the opportunity to cause as much chaos and destruction as possible: Multiple doors were destroyed completely or deconstructed, furniture, handrails and windows were demolished, parts of the fence to our neighbours yard were ripped off, cops peed on toilet seats and so on. Even though they did not have a warrant for it, they, among other things, stole documents and technical devices. Continue reading Berlin,(Germany): Police raid in Rigaer94 →

Security Culture and Safe Houses: Sustaining the Network, Nurturing Continuity

“In the world of resistance without formal structures, especially within anarchist networks, security culture emerges as a foundational principle that permeates nearly every aspect of collective and individual life. […] The safe house, meanwhile, is the most tangible embodiment of that spirit. […] Nothing is ever truly “safe” in a world under perpetual surveillance, but the safe house becomes a space where survival — both physical and mental — remains possible to fight for.”

Challenges of Police Investigations Into Anarchist Direct Actions

Translations: French • German • Greek • Italian • Mandarin (Simplified) • Russian

 

Let’s say a few anarchists are planning an illegal, anonymous direct action. For example, they want to paint a wall, or smash a bank, or burn down a government building. The goals of the police are to prevent actions like this from taking place and/or identify and arrest the anarchists and gather enough evidence for them to be convicted. What can the police do to achieve these goals, depending on their motivation, their resources, the type of action, and the way the anarchists organize? What challenges will they face? And how can anarchists identify these challenges as weaknesses in order to exploit them and act without getting caught?

This text aims to contribute to answering these questions by addressing some points that we think have been insufficiently explored in anarchist literature in recent years.

Anarchist Convergence and Bookfair Berlin 2025

November 7-9, 2025

Mehringhof (Gneisenaustr. 2A, 10961 Berlin)

*DE unten. IT di seguito. РУ ниже. ΕΛ παρακάτω. ES abajo.
More translations to be published.*

If one follows world events with open eyes, the question arises: why are we anarchists and our ideas and methods so socially irrelevant at this point in history?

Raging wars and a variety of global crises increasingly highlight the inability of those in power to offer real solutions. If their best response is to sow fear and conscript us as drone and cannon fodder, then the current situation demands revolutionary responses from below. What do we have to propose?

From November 7th to the 9th, we want to come together at Mehringhof in Berlin-Kreuzberg, get to know each other and our different realities, and exchange ideas. We gather not only to react to the new failures of the state and capitalist system, but also to develop our own long-term responses and build resilient networks and structures based on mutual aid and communality, as well as an anti-authoritarian, non-reformist and antagonistic stance.

The meeting sees itself as an experimental space for self-organization, with co-creation by all participants. As the initiating group, we organize the space for the meeting as well as a certain framework (food, pre-selection of events, time allocation…), which can then be filled with life by all of us who come to the meeting. It will be possible to hold several events at the same time.

If this appeals to you, we welcome you and your proposals – in the form of talks, discussions, workshops, films and other artistic contributions on the following topics:

  • War, genocide and military mobilization
  • Decolonial movements (e.g. Palestine, Sudan, Congo)
  • Advance of the right and social fascization
  • Earth destruction
  • Criticism of technology (e.g. AI and co)
  • Health autonomy
  • Feminism (esp. patriarchal dynamics in the anarchist movement)

If there are other topics that are close to your heart, then of course it is also possible to bring them in.

Everyone is invited to contribute their practical experiences in (self-)organizing. Historical and theoretical contributions are also welcome if they focus on nourishing the practice and building stronger connections to current struggles.

On one hand, we seek to facilitate international exchange and knowledge transfer, so reports and continued discussions from previous anarchist events are strongly encouraged. Translation between German and English will be provided, and we invite speakers of other languages to volunteer as interpreters as well.

On the other hand, with this gathering we hope to strengthen the relationships between anarchist circles and individuals in Berlin, of which there are fortunately many, but which often exist side by side without much exchange between them.

Please contact us in case you:

  • have event proposals
  • could translate at the event
  • would like to draw/design a poster (it would be nice to have several)
  • could provide a place to sleep
  • would like to support otherwise

Here are the forms to facilitate the submission of your proposal:
Call for Participation.

We are looking forward to your contributions. Please, repost and translate the call. See you soon!

Threat Library: Arson Forensics

PDF available below

From Threat Library, updated August 23

Arson forensics (also known as fire investigation) is the application of science to the investigation of arson. Arson forensics aims to determine the origin and cause of a fire and, if it is suspected to be arson, to gather evidence that could help identify the potential arsonists.

An adversary can usually easily determine whether a fire was accidental or arson. It is difficult to carry out an arson and make it appear accidental to an adversary who is knowledgeable in arson forensics.

Fire scene investigation

Fire scene investigation is the inspection of the scene of a fire, looking for:

  • The ignition source that started the fire and the fuel that source ignited. For example, in an accidental residential fire the ignition source may be a malfunctioning electrical outlet that overheats and the fuel may be a sofa positioned against the outlet. In an arson the ignition source may be a match and the fuel may be gasoline brought by the arsonist.
  • Patterns left by the fire on walls, floors, ceilings, and objects. These patterns can indicate where the fire started and how it spread. For example, a fire that starts at the base of a wall may leave a distinctive V-shaped burn pattern on the wall.
  • Eyewitness accounts and video surveillance footage of the scene of the fire before, during, and after the fire.

When a fire occurring inside a room reaches a high enough temperature — typically between 500°C and 600°C — it reaches the flashover point. During flashover, the room is so hot that all ignitable surfaces ignite more or less simultaneously and the fire spreads rapidly throughout the room. Once a fire has reached flashover it is usually significantly harder for the adversary to interpret the patterns it left on walls and other surfaces.

Enbridge Sabotage: Disruption of Service on Line 9B (Canada)

The boreal forest is burning, the water is being poisoned, all the trees are being cut down, and the treaties are being betrayed. The mirage we call “liberal democracy” bows down to the oil lobby. There is talk of new pipelines that will cross the country like scars, new gas projects that will disfigure the land.

Our history has always been that of an extractive colony founded on plunder and dispossession. It’s up to us to put an end to this disaster.

Last night, we attacked line 9B. This pipe of death snakes through lands stolen from Indigenous peoples, transporting the world’s dirtiest bitumen through waterways, cities and our lives. We hit two control valves, destroying the electronic equipment before vanishing into the night.
