ROME, ITALY: BUG FOUND IN CAR

BUG FOUND IN CAR

We receive and spread:

Bug found (2 microphones) with vodafone SIM card, 32GB and GPS SD card in a car in Rome. It had apparently started recording and transmitting from February 14th 2025, perhaps after being placed at the end of January.

The contraption was situated at the driver’s side, low down, along the left side of the seat. It was fed by cables under the steering wheel, one of the microphones was positioned under the driving seat, the other near the safety belt on the same side.
End of transmissions, shit!

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”.

(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).

Da pari a pari – traduzione in inglese: From equals to equals. Against identitarian authoritarianism corect one (Italy)

From equals to equals

Against identitarian authoritarianism

PDF IN ENGLISH:

We are some anarchist comrades who took part in the “Sabotiamo la guerra” assembly[1]. With this writing, we want to speak out on a troubling episode that occurred at our assembly, (not the only one of this kind, but the most serious) but above all on a forma mentis and an ideology that now make such episodes systematic. If we present ourselves in such a circumscribed manner, it is because “Sabotiamo la guerra” is precisely an assembly made from time to time by those who participate in it, and we cannot speak on behalf of all its many past, present, and future participants. Having said that, let us begin to explain ourselves.

On 11, 12, and 13 October 2024, the “three-day” discussion “Sfidare la vertigine” (defy vertigo), organized by our assembly and dedicated precisely to some of the vertiginous but inescapable questions posed by the present (starting with those related to the war, which constitutes no more and no less than the historical horizon), was to take place at squat “Villa Occupata” in Milan. The “three days” was postponed sine die, indeed canceled, due to the opposition of some (we emphasize: some) frequenters of the Villa, who accused a comrade participating in this path of rape, and the assembly itself of supporting him. It would have been simpler and more convenient for us to ignore this episode and carry on, as we have done on other occasions when similar attempts have been made to thwart our initiatives due to the presence of this comrade on our path. Instead, our consciences told us to express ourselves.

Italy: Updates May 2025 about Alfredo Cospito

We receive and spread with rage. Maximum solidarity to Alfredo:

Hi everyone: the updates that are reaching us about the comrade Alfredo Cospito’s situation convey a clear worsening of the already aberrant conditions of imprisonment under 41-bis.

Over a few months Alfredo has been facing a progressive limitation in the already demanding possibilities of surviving under the prison regime that he has been assigned to since 2022, among which an almost total block on correspondence to and from outside, impossibility of access to the prison library (an authorisation that Alfredo received from the prison management), a block on books regularly acquired in a bookshop through the prison (according to the 41-bis regime) and other goods, such as flour or clothing, for daily use.

Renzo Novatore,
Verso il nulla creatore

Leggere Novatore è un’impresa. I motivi per cui, oggi, si viene respinti dalla lettura di un testo come quello che presentiamo qui di seguito sono parecchi e tutti paralleli ai motivi, altrettanto numerosi, per cui se ne rimane affascinati. Il disgusto deriva dal modo di scrivere, dalle infiorettature stilistiche, dalle assordanti ripetizioni, dalla retorica tratta per i capelli a servire da strame per lo sbocciare di un fiore ormai fuori del tempo. Il fascino viene da quello che il lettore ricorda – il lettore provveduto, non quello accidentale – della vita di questo ribelle, morto con le armi in pugno in un conflitto a fuoco contro i carabinieri che volevano catturarlo. Ma una vita bella, e certamente la sua lo fu, una vita “contro”: contro la guerra, contro i fascisti che della guerra furono gli esecutori testamentari, contro i padroni che mandarono i proletari a morire in un sanguinoso quanto assurdo conflitto e poi gestirono i fantocci fascisti per mettere paura alle giuste rivendicazioni dei sopravvissuti, una vita bella, dicevo, non è detto che possa trovare riscontro in belle pagine scritte. Eppure le parole di Novatore meritano una riflessione, mentre non meritano l’entusiasmo di sprovveduti lettori che trovano in esse esattamente quello che non c’è, che il suo autore, quasi certamente (di questo non si può mai essere sicuri), non voleva che ci fosse. Il fatto è che la madre degli imbecilli purtroppo è sempre gravida.

ORE 16.30 LA TECNOLOGIA COME PROCESSO DI DEREALIZZAZIONE

Discussione a partire dalla rivista “Negazine”, ed. Anarchismo. A cura di alcune redattrici

Una realtà diminuita, svalutata, impoverita; si pensi al non capire quello che sta davanti, nel suo insieme, dai progetti di sfruttamento ai progetti delle tecniche, dove tutto diviene sfumato e finisce per perdersi sullo sfondo, dove si diviene succubi di qualcosa che a poco a poco sottrae la vera essenza. Questa è l’analisi che si è cercato di sviluppare in questa rivista con l’idea che “colpire gli interstizi esistenti delle tecniche” sia ancora possi bile e visibile.

Rome (Italy): 17 Teslas go up in smoke

Seventeen Teslas went up in flames at the only Tesla dealership in Rome on Sunday night, Monday March 31, at around 4.30 am.

In the Torrenova district, a mix of residential and industrial buildings, the Teslas caught fire in several places, including in the dealer’s yard on via Serracapriola, and a few metres further on under the recharging shelters.

Italy: Anarchist comrade Juan Sorroche. Open letter re the invitation to participate in the Anarchist Publishing and Propaganda Fair in Rome as an anarchist prisoner

Juan Sorroche: Open letter re the invitation to participate in the Anarchist Publishing and Propaganda Fair in Rome as anarchist prisoner. To those who organised it, those who are going to it, and all the comrades, anarchists and not, who would like to read my considerations

Hola comrades everyone,

I received the books with the Fair material at the beginning of March and read them with great interest, particularly concerning the Publishing and Propaganda Fair due to be held in Rome on 4-5-6 April 2025. I thank you for the invitation to the prisoner comrades to participate and keep up the discussions between outside and inside and not break the link of solidarity with those of us who find ourselves locked up. And I thank you for the sign of solidarity

But I feel obliged to answer, concentrating in this letter and in your organized space exclusively on the net positions you have decided to take. The discourse, yes, is very divisive, so I think it’s very important and fundamental that there be collective perspectives and the broadest possible continuity in this respect, also with us, prisoners and not only. With compromises among comrades. For me personally compromise is not negative and not always enemy in absolute, on the contrary. I am for clear compromises between all comrades, male and female. Concerning the net position you have decided to take. As far as I am concerned these are a priori decisions, with automatic mechanisms and methods, decided elsewhere. It is therefore deciding exclusively whether to adhere and then perhaps discuss questions that have clearly already been decided.

Greece: INTERNATIONALIST SOLIDARITY WITH COMRADE SALVATORE VESPERTINO GHESPE IN ITALY

On February 15, anarchist comrade Salvatore Vespertino (Ghespe), who had been a fugitive for the last 2 years or so, was arrested in Madrid. According to the regime, his arrest was the result of cooperation between the authorities of various countries, including Greece.

The comrade was transferred to Italy on March 4th, initially to the Rebibbia prison in Rome and is currently imprisoned in Spoleto prison of Spoleto.In the early days of his detention in Spain, Ghespe was subjected to pressure and harassment by guards. At Rebibbia, the correspondence wasn’t delivered to him; visits and phone calls were not allowed until shortly before his transfer to the prison of Spoleto.

He was sentenced to 8 years in prison on charges of possession, manufacture and transport of an explosive device, grievous bodily harm and damage in the context of the Panico operation in 2017 in Florence. More specifically, he is accused of an improvised explosive device that was placed outside a fascist bookstore in Florence on New Year’s Day 2017.The device exploded in the hands of a pyrotechnics cop who did not even follow safety protocols, resulting in the loss of an arm and an eye.

Italy: OPERAZIONE SCRIPTA SCELERA: ASSOLTI GLI ANARCHICI IMPUTATI NEL PROCESSO DI MASSA PER LA PUBBLICAZIONE DI “BEZMOTIVNY”. UNA CONDANNA A 8 MESI PER OFFESA ALL’ONORE O AL PRESTIGIO DEL PRESIDENTE DELLA REPUBBLICA.it/en/

 L’8 aprile 2025 è stata emessa la sentenza del processo con giudizio immediato in corso a Massa contro quattro compagni anarchici inquisiti per la pubblicazione del quindicinale anarchico internazionalista “Bezmotivny” (operazione repressiva dell’8 agosto 2023). Gli imputati – coinvolti nell’operazione assieme ad altri sei inquisiti per cui il procedimento è rimasto nella fase di indagine – erano accusati di istigazione a delinquere e apologia di reati e delitti di terrorismo (art. 414 c. p., commi 1, 3 e 4) con la circostanza aggravante della finalità di terrorismo (art. 270 bis 1 c. p.), per la pubblicazione della sessantina di numeri di “Bezmotivny”, e di offesa all’onore o al prestigio del presidente della repubblica (art. 278 c. p.), in merito a un articolo specifico (“Soffiare sul fuoco”, pubblicato in “Bezmotivny”, anno I, numero 17, 25 ottobre 2021).
 Tutti gli imputati sono stati assolti per l’accusa di istigazione a delinquere pluriaggravata “perché il fatto non sussiste”, mentre il solo Luigi è stato condannato a 8 mesi, senza l’applicazione della recidiva reiterata, per offesa all’onore o al prestigio del presidente della repubblica (gli altri tre imputati sono stati assolti anche da quest’accusa “per non aver commesso il fatto”). È inoltre stata negata la richiesta risarcitoria dell’avvocatura dello Stato.

Some updates on Anarchist comrade Salvatore Vespertino Ghespe’s situation en/it (Italy)

Some updates on Ghespe’s situation

After about two years, on the night of February 14-15, 2025, a police arrest ended Ghespe’s status as a fugitive. From the moment of his arrest, the Spanish state guards were immediately notable for their characteristic cowardice. The beatings, threats, and what even the comrade recognized as psychological and physical torture led him to make an extreme act in order to be able to escape from a situation of absolute danger to his safety. In order to leave the Soto del Real prison in Madrid, he cut the veins of his arms and was transferred to the psychiatric hospital. As a matter of procedure, endangering one’s life leads consequently to a TSO (psychiatric compulsory treatment), so the comrade was inoculated with sedatives and antipsychotics. He is very concerned to point out that the act was not done with suicidal intentions, nor did such thoughts ever cross his mind. The amount of blood he lost was such that he had to receive transfusions.

During his stay in the psychiatric ward, he continued to suffer torture, such as pressure on open wounds by hospital staff. After being discharged from the hospital, on March 4 he was extradited to Italy, specifically to the Rebibbia prison in Rome, his first stop after his flight from Madrid.

Trentino, Italy: Anarchist Massimo Passamani imprisoned in “semi-freedom”

Trentino,  Massimo imprisoned in “semi-freedom”

From yesterday, Wednesday 26th March, our dear friend and comrade Massimo finds himself in the prison of Spini di Gardolo (Tn), in the so-called “semi-freedom” regime, for an accumulation of definitive sentences from 2 years and seven months (the main sentence, of little over 2 years, is related to clashes that took place in Rovereto on the occasion Salvini’s visit: one of the episodes for which Giulio also finds himself locked up). Given that his request for semi-freedom has been accepted, in about two weeks’ time he will be able to go out to work: which attenuates, but doesn’t extinguish, the rage of knowing him imprisoned.

Pisa, Carrara, Police raids in Pisa and Carrara related to the action against the court during the campaign in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito

Two house searches took place at dawn on Wednesday, March 26th 2025, in the cities of Pisa and Carrara under articles 110, 56, 424 of the penal code, aggravated by article 270 bis 1, regarding the placing of an incendiary device at the court of Pisa [collocazione di un ordigno incendiario presso il tribunale di Pisa] found by the Italian State security forces in February of 2023. The latter was part of the large-scale mobilization in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito against 41 bis and life imprisonment without appeal..

The investigation, carried out by the Anti-Mafia and Antiterrorism District Directorate of Florence, are, like all the investigations against the anarchist movement, intended to threaten revolutionaries and the spirit of initiative which characterizes them.

The struggle continues.
