Call to Action and Propaganda 15 Years After the Death of Anarchist Comrade Mauricio Morales

April 12, 2024 / informativoanarquista

“Before sleeping I embrace chaos as the idea that liberates my body and my mind because when all is said and done it makes me feel alive.

I don’t want to search for the grail that emanates freedom in future societies.

My fingers search for the bloody flight of destruction of the chains of rhythmic fire, of the closeby fire of power and of its bosses.

And when sleeping my actions move towards tomorrow when waking up, I’ll break with routine and in individual action with my chest as a stone swollen by destruction of this and any society.

Do me a favour: make sure that anarchy lives”.

– Punki Mauri

At dawn of May 22, 2009, anarchist comrade Mauricio Morales, Punki Mauri, found death through the unanticipated detonation of the explosive artifact that he intended to place at the Police School in Matta, Santiago.

After 16 Years of Prison: Words of Marcelo Villarroel -Chile

After 16 Years of Prison: Words of Marcelo Villarroel

informativoanarquista

This past March 15 marked 16 years of uninterupted prison, since I was detained in San Martin de los Andes, Neuquén province, territory occupied by the argentine state, while fleeing a search and arrest warrant from the chilean state.

The cases that encouraged that moment of clandestinity and which were spread profusely at the time have already been fulfilled:

I was sentenced to 14 years for two bank robberies. This date was met December 16 of last year, counted from December 16, 2009, the moment I was extradited from argentinian territory to be judged in chile.

Currently I still have 46 more years of sentences for cases emanating from pinochet’s military court in the early 90s framed in the urban guerrilla practices of my old militancy in the armed group Mapu-Lautaro which has been extinct for more than 3 decades.

Italy: Anarchists comrades Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino sentenced to 23 and 17 years in prison

Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino sentenced to 23 and 17 years in prison

From: No 41 bis- international mobilisation

“The sentences of 23 years and 17 years and 9 months of imprisonment to the anarchists Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino are final. The Court of Cassation confirms the sentence bis of the Court of Appeal of Turin. The requests of the defense and of the prosecution of Turin were rejected, and they insisted to the end on obtaining life imprisonment. Rage and love for our comrades! With the practices of which they are accused! Alfredo out since 41 bis!”

Thus communicated the comrades from Italy the final sentences imposed on Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino in what was the trial of the Scripta Manent case, which sought to blame both comrades for “political massacre”, based on the action against the Carabinieri school of Fossano.

AnarSec: Tech Guides for Anarchists

AnarSec is a new resource designed to help anarchists navigate the hostile terrain of technology — defensive guides for digital security and anonymity, as well as offensive guides for hacking. All guides are available in booklet format for printing and will be kept up to date.

As anarchists, we must defend ourselves against police and intelligence agencies that conduct targeted digital surveillance for the purposes of incrimination and network mapping. With the defensive series, our goal is to obscure the State’s visibility into our lives and projects. Our recommendations are intended for all anarchists, and they are accompanied by guides to put the advice into practice.

With the upcoming offensive series, we hope to contribute to the practice of hacking the State and capital. Astute readers may notice that the art featured on our homepage and booklets is taken from communiqués detailing how anarchists robbed a bank (Phineas Fisher) and destroyed police servers (AntiSec) using only a keyboard.

The defensive series currently includes:

Italy: ‘The carousel of repression’ – by Anarchist comrade Anna Beniamino

THE CAROUSEL OF REPRESSION

Almost eight years after the arrests for Scripta Manent, for the second time the Court of Cassation, on 24th April 2024, will pronounce judgement on the crime of “political massacre”, pursuant to art. 285 c.p., against Alfredo and myself, the last remaining fragment pending in the process (i), after a whirlwind of delays, recalculations, and repressive-jurisprudential manipulations (ii).

Although the repetition of error numbs the horror, and we are living in times of multiple horrors flaunted and total anaesthetisations, I believe there are still some words to be said about the ongoing annihilation attempt, about reactions, successful and attempted. Not so much because I believe this may be useful for our personal fates, but out of a kind of stubborn “romanticism” that considers silence and resignation always and even more lethal in a political process.

Newfoundland (Canada): sledgehammering the weather station for the future wind farm

World Energy GH2 equipment vandalized in Mainland

Radio Canada, March 14, 2024 (excerpt)

Someone recently damaged World Energy GH2 facilities in southwestern Newfoundland. The damage amounts to more than $5,000, and took place on February 21 or 22 in Mainland, at a location where World Energy GH2 collects weather data, says the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), which is investigating the incident. The vandals targeted solar panels, the windows of a small building and equipment.

In a similar incident in January 2023, someone had already damaged the company’s heavy equipment. World Energy GH2 intends to build around 150 200-metre-high wind turbines on the Port-au-Port peninsula, west of Stephenville. The consortium is also studying the possibility of building a wind farm of roughly the same size in the Codroy Valley to the south.

Prague, Czech Republic: May Action Week in Prague is calling for an anti-war demonstration to take place on Friday 24 May 2024 at 5pm on Palacký Square.

The collective organizing the May Action Week in Prague is calling for an anti-war demonstration to take place on Friday 24 May 2024 at 5pm on Palacký Square.

War is a phenomenon that not only theoretically, but also very concretely intrudes upon everyone’s life. Under the current social order, there is no boundary separating life in war from life in peace. We are all at war. Only the ways in which the reality of war affects us differ. Some are living on the home front in bombed-out cities, others are sent to the front to serve as cannon fodder, and some others are forced to sell their labor force, which turns the wheels of the war economy. We are all also targets of war propaganda designed to induce us to engage in one form of war or another. Finally, we are also all indoctrinated with the so-called duty to sacrifice ourselves in war for the sake of the country, the nation, the people, the economy, democracy, religion…
