Hamburg: solidarity attack on HERTZ

Hamburg: solidarity attack on HERTZ

The next racist murder attempt of the Greek cops, but also the ongoing hunger strike of the anarchists in Italy have motivated us to attack HERTZ as a supporter of the Greek cops and thus of the racist and neoliberal Nea-Demokratia regime.At the branch in Hamburg Wandsbek we set fire to the building.

Not only in Greece HERTZ offers favorable conditions for the uniformed executioners, but also for example in the USA.
Not only the shot in the back of the head of Costas Fragoulis in
Thessaloniki is an expression of the racist violence that is the order
of the day in Greece. There are daily pushbacks and assaults against
people fleeing at the borders. In the camps and deportation jails, it
becomes clear again and again what Europe’s closure against refugees means: brutal, inhuman violence that the Greek state and other European security agencies use without scruples.

Turin,: You want to take away our voice; we cut off your light

YOU WANT TO TAKE AWAY OUR VOICE
WE CUT OFF YOUR LIGHT

Despite the media silence, we want to make it known that:

The State is the slaughterer!

December 12 marks the anniversary of what is known as the “mother of all massacres”, the one in Piazza Fontana, at the Banca dell’Agricoltura in Milan, in 1969. Planned and carried out by fascists in collusion with State apparatuses, many more followed and over the following decade much blood was shed. These were scientifically planned massacres that attempted to impart an even more authoritarian turn to the young Italian Republic.

On December 5 in Turin, the courts began deliberating the sentencing of two anarchist comrades – Alfredo and Anna – accused of “political massacre” for having placed two explosive devices outside the carabinieri school near Cuneo in 2006, without causing any fatalities or injuries. They both risk life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Alfredo is being held under the 41 bis regime since May.

It seems logically absurd to hold a trial for a massacre without a single death, but not when the defendants are anarchists. The State wants to imprison them for life, not for what they have allegedly committed, but for the ideas they carry in their hearts and the actions that are an expression of those ideas.

Greece: New agenda 2023 of Solidarity Fund (in greek)

The Solidarity Fund of Imprisoned and Persecuted Fighters continues this year the series of agendas who attempt to record some of the most important moments of the social and class war in Greece. The three previous agendas in this series (2020-2021-2022) covered the period 1974-2005, dividing it not into uniform parts, but in such a way that, in addition to taking into account the volume of available archival material, they serve a basic need periodization of historical time. What we found in view of last year’s agenda, namely that “on the one hand the concentration of political time (closer to us and in terms of cinematic events) and on the other hand the abundance of archival material, also due to the wide use of the internet , led us to choose to divide the period after 2000 into five years”, it is obvious that this year we should, to some extent, revise it. This year’s agenda will thus cover three years (2006-2008).

It is not only the rapid concentration of multiform kinematic events during this period and the abundant available material that led us to this choice. It is, above all, the fact that during the year that closes this three-year period, in 2008, things happened that defined in such a fundamental way the world around us, but also the world within the domestic radical movement, the anarchist-anti-authoritarian space, which created a historical section. At such intersections, we believe that any attempt at historical recording would be right to stand.

Vitry-sur-Seine (Val-de-Marne)France : Slashed tires for Spie and a security company in solidarity with the rioters of the Adolphe Chérioux high school   

In mid-November, a car from Spie (a manufacturer of prisons) and a car from a security system installation company had their tires slashed.

An action in solidarity with the rioters of the Adolphe Chérioux high school in Vitry sur seine, some of whom ended up in prison and others have their trial in February. Last week, the students blocked their their high school, some of them clashed with the police and destroyed urban infrastructure (cameras etc.). This mobilization was in part against the Parcoursup post-high school selection system. What are the possible links between anarchists and youth in struggle?

Rome, Italy: Interruption of a performance at Teatro Argentina in solidarity with the imprisoned anarchists on hunger strike against 41bis (Rome 26th November 2022)

Interruption of a performance at Teatro Argentina in solidarity with the imprisoned anarchists on hunger strike against 41bis (Rome 26th November 2022)

Today, 26th November 2022, the play ‘Hamlet’ was interrupted at Teatro Argentina in Rome. In spite of the fact that the theatre workers turned into a real security line-up to protect the bosses’ interests, we determinedly managed to get on stage and unfurl a banner that read “Something is rotten in Italy: NO to 41 bis”, throw leaflets and read part of the communique which we are reproducing in full here below:

We are here because Alfredo Cospito is under 41 bis. 41 bis is a prison regime specifically designed to annihilate the individual. We are here because Alfredo has been on hunger strike for over a month. We are not here to cry over an injustice suffered by our anarchist comrade, because it is not such. Just as it is not a legal aberration. It is the logical reaction of the democratic State to the attacks launched by Alfredo. First physical, with the wounding of the bureaucrat Adinolfi, at the time CEO of Ansaldo Nucleare, for which he has finished serving the time he was sentenced to.

FIRST STATEMENT FROM THE PRISONERS IN THE SUSARON CASE.


On the side of kittens, jaguars, dogs, cows, horses, chinchillas, trees and blizzards. We write this message loaded with pride, with a great mocking grimace on our faces.

The punishment for breaking the fear and the monotony of sterile grandiloquent words, we have always known is death or prison. We have known it since we were little.

Munich (Germany): the cars of the military go up in smoke

On Saturday, November 19, 2022, at about 1:30 a.m., two cars burned in the parking lot of the Bundeswehr University in the Neubiberg district of Munich.

The two vehicles, an Audi and a BMW, were more than 50 meters apart, and “the fire could not have passed from one to the other,” according to a police spokesman. A manhunt was immediately launched, including the intervention of a helicopter, but no suspects were arrested. For the time being, the police are not linking the incident to other fires in Munich, although potential similarities are being investigated.

Responsibility claim for the explosive attack on the house of the First Counsellor of the Italian Embassy – “Carlo Giuliani” Vengeance Cell (Athens,Greece)

Since 20/10 Alfredo Cospito has been on hunger strike against the prison regime imposed on him by the Italian state, under the name 41 bis. Alfredo Cospito has been a prisoner since 2012, having taken responsibility for the shooting of Roberto Adinolfi, director of Ansaldo Nucleare, an action carried out by the Informal Anarchist Federation/International Revolutionary Front (FAI/IRF). Since then the comrade remains unrepentant and continues to be committed to the cause of social liberation. For this reason, the Italian state decided to impose the 41 bis regime on him from 5 May, a prison within a prison where he will be in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day, with one hour of pre-trial detention and meeting with other prisoners, who will be decided by the prison management, imposing full control over him, including which of his fellow prisoners he will associate with.
