Perama Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim

Perama Athens, Responsibility claim

On Friday, June 9, in the neighbourhood of Perama, we set fire to polling booths of multiple party choices on the occasion of the European election process, an act of defiance against the party apparatus and the oppressors of our lives. We want to send a message to Yiannis Lagoudakos, New Democracy politician, newly appointed mayor of Perama. When he vents his fascist anger against vulnerable minorities such as the Roma he should not forget the recent incident when the water hose rained down on the mother while he was making threats to kidnap her children, and that in the face of fascist violence nothing will be left unanswered.

From what it seems, the mirror of electoral delusion has been cracked. The mechanism of the elections and the entire Euro-parliamentary mafia is given meaning in the social conflict. The high rates of abstention from the European election process represent the maximum amount of dissatisfaction from society as a whole. At least in the Greek axis, right and left together and their ends have collapsed in the eyes of the youth and not only. What remains is the strengthening of self-organized social forces on the basis of radical formation, the creation of informal direct action groups and the cooperation between persons with the characteristics appropriate to the circumstances. Beyond the difficulty of the times and the hardening of State control over our lives, the anarchist struggle must examine the rebuilding and reconstitution of the insurrectionary process as well as its strategic framework for preparing and restarting new battle structures.

[From Greece] Update about the the special “state of exception” for the anarchist Nikos Maziotis, convicted comrade of Revolutionary Struggle

We would like to send you some news about the imprisonment of anarchist comrade Nikos Maziotis -who is in Domokos prison for his actions in Revolutionary Struggle- and the special “state of exception” for him.

as a summary:

The Lamia Misdemeanors Court Council recently rejected the comrade’s request for conditional release. This is the sixth time his request has been rejected (five rejections by the first-instance council and one by an appellate court where he appealed only once). Three of the six requests Nikos Maziotis has submitted for his release were rejected by a council presided over by the same judge. And in all three instances, his request was accompanied by three consecutive positive prosecutorial recommendations.

With the recent conditional release of the Nazi Michaloliakos, the above was proven once again. According to journalistic, legal, and judicial circles, this decision was signed by Christina Papagianni as president of the Lamia Misdemeanors Court Council. Thus, with the decision No. 121/30.4.2024, the specific one was released, while his first release request was accompanied by a negative prosecutorial recommendation. From the very beginning, there was not only political cover but also a concerted and coordinated effort by state (and judicial) authorities to keep the name of the council president who released the Nazi. This attempted cover-up did not succeed. The president’s name was immediately revealed through leaks from journalistic (and not only) offices. And despite the fact that the Nazi is now back in prison (after an appeal was filed against his release by an appellate prosecutor), the selectively biased stance of far-right elements within the “justice system” who release Nazis, yet are the same ones like this particular judge who keeps comrade Nikos Maziotis imprisoned, can no longer remain hidden.

GR-EL: Σκότωσε τον μπάτσο στην τσέπη σου -Kill the Cop in Your Pocket

Σκότωσε τον μπάτσο στην τσέπη σου

Η αποτελεσματική κουλτούρα ασφάλειας και η επιχειρησιακή ασφάλεια εμποδίζουν τις δυνάμεις καταστολής να γνωρίζουν για τις συγκεκριμένες εγκληματικές μας δραστηριότητες, αλλά και για τη ζωή μας, τις σχέσεις μας, τα μοτίβα μετακίνησής μας και ούτω καθεξής.

Αυτή η γνώση είναι ένα τεράστιο πλεονέκτημα για τον περιορισμό των υπόπτων και τη διεξαγωγή στοχευμένης παρακολούθησης. Αυτό το άρθρο θα περιγράψει μερικές στρατηγικές για να σκοτώσετε τον μπάτσο στην τσέπη σας

Η τοποθεσία του τηλεφώνου σας παρακολουθείται ανά πάσα στιγμή και αυτά τα δεδομένα συλλέγονται από ιδιωτικές εταιρείες, επιτρέποντας στην αστυνομία να παρακάμψει την ανάγκη έκδοσης εντάλματος. Τα αναγνωριστικά υλικού και οι πληροφορίες συνδρομής του τηλεφώνου καταγράφονται από κάθε πύργο κινητής τηλεφωνίας στον οποίο συνδέεται το τηλέφωνό σας. Υπηρεσίες hacking, όπως η Pegasus, θέτουν τον πλήρη συμβιβασμό των τηλεφώνων σε απόσταση αναπνοής ακόμη και από τις τοπικές αρχές επιβολής του νόμου και είναι “μηδενικό κλικ”, που σημαίνει ότι δεν εξαρτώνται από το αν κάνετε κλικ σε έναν σύνδεσμο ή ανοίξετε ένα αρχείο για να χακάρουν το τηλέφωνό σας. Από την άλλη πλευρά, αφού περισσότεροι από 30 εμπρησμοί σε μια μικρή πόλη της Γαλλίας έμειναν ανεξιχνίαστοι, οι ερευνητές παραπονέθηκαν ότι «είναι αδύνατο να χρησιμοποιηθούν δεδομένα τηλεφώνου ή οχήματος επειδή λειτουργούν χωρίς τηλέφωνα ή αυτοκίνητα!»

Κρυπτογράφηση και γεωεντοπισμός

Σε μια πρόσφατη κατασταλτική επιχείρηση εναντίον ενός αναρχικού, η αστυνομία παρακολούθησε τη γεωγραφική θέση του flip phone του υπόπτου σε πραγματικό χρόνο και έφτιαξε μια λίστα με όλους όσους είχε καλέσει ο ύποπτος. Είναι γνωστό ότι τέτοιες παρακολουθήσεις δεν είναι ασυνήθιστες, και όμως πολλοί σύντροφοι έχουν μαζί τους ένα κινητό τηλέφωνο όπου κι αν πάνε, ή κάνουν μη κρυπτογραφημένες κλήσεις σε άλλους αναρχικούς. Πιστεύουμε ότι και οι δύο αυτές πρακτικές πρέπει να αποφευχθούν. Ας μην κάνουμε τη δουλειά της αστυνομίας και των υπηρεσιών πληροφοριών τόσο εύκολη, παραδίδοντάς τους τα κοινωνικά μας δίκτυα και το ιστορικό γεωγραφικού εντοπισμού σε ασημένιο πιάτο.

Intervention at the consulate of Kenya | Solidarity with the rebels (Athens,Greece)

On Friday, 12th July, an intervention with banner and flyers took place at the consulate of Kenya in solidarity with the rebels.

During the last weeks, there have been ongoing and massive protests in Kenya against a new tax bill, which will hit the poorest classes of society even harder. The increase in taxes, voted as part of the approval of the draft state budget, have sparked an intense political confrontation. The peak of the mobilizations and demonstrations against the bill, were the mass demonstrations in the capital of Kenya, in Nairobi on June 25th (the day the bill was passed), where groups of protesters managed to break the police stranglehold and set fire to the parliament, from which MPs (members of parliament) and ministers fled through a tunnel. That day, at least 30 protesters were killed by the murderous state supression. The ferocity of the protests even forced the government to back down and withdraw the budget.

Agrinio city, Greece : TO STOP THE DESTRUCTION OF NATURE AND SOCIETY BY DESTROYING THE SYSTEM THAT BRINGS IT STRUGGLE FOR SOCIAL REVOLUTION BY ANARCHISTS INITIATIVE IN AGRINIO

from the anarchist wall newspaper in Agrinio city .

The hydroelectric dams in the lower reaches of the Achelou River – Kremasta since 1966, Kastraki since 1969 and Stratos since 1989 – as well as the concrete encasing of the river bed, as major interventions in the natural ecosystem of these areas, have brought already a significant alteration, degradation and change of use in the lower Paracheloite land, with devastating consequences for both the environment and its people.

Entire villages were uprooted and swept away by the waters; arable lands, extremely fertile due to the river’s input and centuries of human labour on them, found themselves at the bottom of man-made lakes, along with the culture and history they housed.

Call of Gathering in solidarity with the anarchist Andreas F. (Athens,Greece)

On 22/4/24 the anarchist comrade Andreas F. is kidnapped by the State security and anti-terrorist forces, armed cops invade his house in the city of Patras for a second time for investigation.

From petty supermarket theft… to  ”terrorist organization” in the second act of the police terrorist cell of the E.L.A.S. [Greek police headquarters] the comrade is transferred to Athens, interrogated and, according to the anti-terrorism law (187A), accused of being a member of “ conspiracy of revenge” and the natural instigator of its action. Finally, on 26/4, the investigator and the prosecutor decide to keep him in custody in the prison of Amfissa.

In the face of the fear that tries to spread through vindictiveness in the face of Andreas, but also in the face of his comrades, our response has always been and will always be the same: non-negotiable support for his political stance and his anarchist identity, solidarity in this difficult struggle that begins, this time from within the walls of the prison. Until we meet again in the next struggles we will fight. Andrea, strong, until freedom.

Gathering in solidarity with the anarchist Andreas F. who is called for additional interrogation.

Athens, Evelpidon Courts (building 10) – Friday 12/7 9:30 a.m.

FREEDOM NOW! FOR ANARCHIST COMRADE ANDREAS F.

The second issue of the insurrectionary / nihilist anarchist newspaper”Blessed Is The Flame”, originally published in 8 July 2024 in Greek, has now been translated in English. By doing so, we hold the ambition that this newspaper can become an international effort, bringing together all the direct action reports, statements and texts of comrades, and news about the struggles of anarchist prisoners that are scattered across the world, divided by language and communication barriers.

We make a call to any willing comrades around the world to assist us in translating the newspaper in other languages as well and diseminate it both digitally and physically; the document was designed to be easily printable as a A5-size booklet. Ideally, we would like to suggest an international collaboration between counter-information projects from all corners of the world, defying the recent repression efforts of various states who want to put an end to the diffusion of the ideas and practices of the anarchy of action.

Central Greece : Αgainst the destruction of central Evia

 

Αgainst the destruction of central Evia

At this moment, the State and investors are planning the looting of the last piece of green in central Evia. In particular, Ellaktor of Vardinogianni and the Portuguese multinational EDP Renewables are planning to place 86 wind turbines in the mountainous green areas of Dirfyos, Xerovouni, the Kotylaia Mountains and the Euboean Olympus. In fact, following the recent rejection by the ΑΠΕ of the appeal made by residents and associations of Evia, the implementation of this project is just around the corner.

Mountains of Euboean Olympus

Green Repower, the company of the forestor – sometimes also investor(!) – Eleftherios Karapidakis, is a company preparing environmental impact studies of Development & Evaluation of RES Projects. The specific subject has signed studies for a series of disastrous “green” investments throughout the Greek region, such as Evia, Agrafa, Boeotia, serving his personal benefit as well as those of his bosses.

Athens: Breakthrough on Israeli targets from down to the down

Words seem trivial so we call for international solidarity through direct action thus targeting the Israeli capital and interest that is carrying out the genocide in Gaza. We choose to bring the war on to our own terms, to the metropolitan fabric by smashing the Zoia hotels at 25 Metsovou and 30 Kosmas Melodou Streets.

We strike self-interest everywhere and always. An invisible thread connects the struggles of the fighting subjects in Palestine, Chile, the Philippines and in every corner of the planet with the resistance unfolding in every neighbourhood of the Greek region. Resistance and struggles against the suffocating advance of capital.

FROM ATLANTA TO ATHENS: COMMON STRUGGLES FOR LAND AND FREEDOM (Greece)

Conversation with an American comrade about Atlanta Forest Struggle and Repression, Friday 28/6, 20:00, Prosfygika Square

The George Floyd uprising opened up new possibilities for militant struggle in the United States. Over the past few years, American anarchists have been seizing these opportunities in a coordinated effort to connect various struggles across the country. “There are no local struggles” and the fight against the police is a fight for earth liberation.

Athens,Greece: The only ethical consumption is expropriation, by Anarchists

via: athens.indymedia.

The only ethical consumption is expropriation.

In the face of the hijacking of our lives we refuse to remain inactive. That’s why on Thursday June 6th we storm on morning times  at the A.B. supermarket located on the National Resistance street ( Εθνικής Αντιστάσεως ) in Kaisariani. We went in, took what we wanted and left undisturbed.

This location was chosen in an attempt to break the regime of terror and inaction that has prevailed in recent months in the area, due to the suffocating increase in police, both static forces and patrols. We are re-residentializing our spaces and neighbourhoods, which the State is methodically trying to sterilize, turning them into hotbeds of lawlessness and resistance.

Incendiary attack on the machinery of the Elikonos Station (Athens,Greece)

In a society that champions the urban landscape as the sole way of existence, our liberty and very essence endure relentless oppression day after day. To turn a blind eye to this truth is to allow this tyranny to thrive and progress. It’s degrading to merely endure this survival state instead of truly living. We must rebel against it by any means necessary.

Therefore, on 26/5, we executed an incendiary attack on the equipment situated at the construction site of the Elikonos station within the forthcoming line 4 of the metro. We harbor no delusions that this strike will halt the advancement of the new line project, yet we grasp that it represents a stride in the correct direction. Every development zone of this nature leads to the gentrification of the surrounding locality, causing small enterprises to flounder and rents to soar to exorbitant levels. It is our obligation to stand as the barrier against this dystopian future until absolute emancipation.
