Italy : The Anarchist comrade Giusepppe Bruna (Beppe) is in need of economic support

The comrade Beppe is in need of economic support

If you are anarchists you will surely have heard about the Prometeo trial that ended in Genoa just a few months ago and which is an exemplary case for understanding how the mainstream media really work in this country.

Let’s remember the facts.

The Prometeo trial saw three of our comrades, Natascia, Beppe e Robert accused of sending two explosive packages addressed to two ex public prosecutors in Turin: Sparagna e Rinaudo, both involved for years in ferocious repression of the struggle along with the ex director of the Dap, Santi Consolo, one of those mainly responsible for the torture that thousands of prisoners live daily on their own skins…
The public prosecutor Federico Manotti, already well known in the past for his repressive fury towards Anarchists… asked for a total penalty of over half a century’s prison.
17 years was requested for Natascia and Robert and even 18 years and 4 months for Beppe.

The chief indictment brought out for the occasion was the infamous article 280, or attack with aims of terrorism.

This trial arrived after something like 3 years (I repeat 3 years) of preventive detention… with continual transfers from one prison to another (Pavia, Opera and Bologna) and always under regimes of maximum security…
At this point it is useful to recall the absolutely shameful behaviour of the mainstream media regarding such an event..

SOLIDARITY WITH THE COMRADES STRUCK BY OPERATION “SCRIPTA SCELERA”

On Tuesday 8th of August the umpteenth anti-anarchist operation was unleashed in a number of cities in Italy.

With the magniloquent name of “Scripta Scelera” a new attack on anarchism has materialized, on its theoretical deepening and the practices of solidarity that it knows how to implement.
This time the “crimes in writing” are those of the fortnightly “Bezmotivny”, a publication born at the end of 2020. Just as happened in operation “Sibilla” that struck the anarchist paper “Vetriolo”, anarchist propaganda as such, its ability to affect consciences, binding exploited to other exploited beyond States and borders, has been criminalised once again.

A microphone is found in a car. It is hidden inside the vehicle. The night before the device was found, one of the car’s windows was broken, a few things inside it were stolen, and four men were seen tampering with the vehicle – the theft was presumably a cover-up for the device installation.

For an internationalist and anti-authoritarian mobilisation against the war. Second meeting in Rome, September 2nd, 2023

The discussion about the war in Ukraine on July 22nd in Rome was well attended by comrades and comrades from different territories and cities. A shared will emerged to help stop a massacre that threatens to drag us all — on this or that side of the frontline — towards an abyss with no return (be it the nuclear apocalypse or a state of permanent war between the different capitalist blocks, the repercussions of which are already being felt in our latitudes: war economy, increasing militarisation of society, demonisation of opinions, attack on all social and class struggles, iron fist against subversives and opponents…).

Update on Anarchist Alfredo Cospito’s situation and call for solidarity (Italy, August 2023)

Update on Alfredo Cospito’s situation and call for solidarity August 2023

The latest news we’ve got about Alfredo, still in prison in Bancali (Sassari) under the 41 bis regime, are that his health is stable, he is physically sound and has regained weight after his six-month hunger strike. Unfortunately, he receives very little mail, almost none. Also, when the prison withholds letters, postcards or telegrams, often he’s not informed by prison staff.

He thus finds himself subjected to an even higher and more arbitrary censorship than the already harsh one of 41 bis. Let’s not let him lack our solidarity! We urge all to write letters or postcards using registered mail with return receipt requested, to increase the chances that, if they are withheld from him, he will be at least notified.

Against all prisons!

Operation ”Scripta Scelera” against the fortnightly “Bezmotivny”: first initiatives in solidarity, a brief update, some observations

In the early morning of Tuesday, August 8th, a repressive operation – ridiculously named Scripta Scelera (these fine people always come up with some “ambitious” or suggestive name for their operations) [Latin: “written crimes”] – was unleashed by the State’s repressive apparatus in various cities. It was aimed at shutting down the anarchist internationalist fortnightly magazine “Bezmotivny”, thereby striking the action of publication of analysis and reflection as well as, and in particular, texts claiming actions, sabotage and initiatives of attack undertaken by anarchists and revolutionaries throughout the world against the State and capital.

Let’s take a brief look at the facts. Mainly involving anarchist comrades in Carrara and the “Gogliardo Fiaschi” Anarchist Cultural Circle, the operation consisted of notification of an investigation against 10 comrades, all of whom were subjected to house searches (as well as that against the above-mentioned anarchist circle), and significant seizures of newspapers and various publications. Concerning the 10 under investigation (for whom Genovese public prosecutor Manotti twice requested their arrest in prison), the judge for the preliminary investigations ordered house arrest with all restrictions (including electronic ankle bracelets, which were not applied due to lack of the necessary equipment) for four of the comrades, a night curfew from 19.00 to 7am for another five, while one comrade has no restrictions (at the police station they notified him of a two years’ compulsory expulsion order from the province of La Spezia). One of the comrades under house arrest was initially taken to prison on order of the same prosecutor, due to the fact that he did not have a certificate of residence. In the context of the operation, a printing press in Avenza, where the paper had recently been printed, was also shut down (and later re-opened).

Tsunami.

Tsunami

Sometimes it is enough to know how to look.
Sometimes the signs are all there.
Sometimes it is enough to not remain dazzled by the glitter of the shells on the bottom.

The tsunami is a strange phenomenon. It is perhaps the most predictable in the world. An earthquake moves thousands of tons of water. A wall of energy slowly moves toward the coast. The sea level drops by several meters.
It would be so easy to notice and take refuge in the mountains, in the shelter, to understand how to resist the impact of the wave. Yet the disappearing water attracts the curious. Everyone has her own profit to seek in the sands of the bottom. Everyone has a pearl that dazzles him. Until the water arrives and sweeps everything away.

Italy : Communiqué from Anarchist Cultural Circle “Gogliardo Fiaschi” in Carrara,on the August 8 repressive operation (and Luigi’s prison address)

Carrara, Italy : REPRESSIVE OPERATION AGAINST THE ANARCHIST PAPER BEZMOTIVNY

August, the State, through the public prosecution of Genoa (in the figure of prosecutor Federico Manotti) and the DIGOS of La Spezia, carried out yet another repressive operation against the anarchist movement. Their aim is to silence any revolutionary desire and aspiration – as already happened with “anatianarchist laws” over a hundred years ago.

Ten anarchists have been accused in this investigation including five comrades of Carrara for whom the prosecutor had requested imprisonment, which the judge for preliminary investigations Riccardo Ghio changed to four house arrests with full restrictions, followed by five forced residences with curfew, and one comrade with no restrictions. One of the four comrades under house arrest was ordered to be taken to prison as he did not have a certificate of residence: so Luigi has been transferred to the prison of La Spezia.

As well as the house searches the historic anarchist place in Carrara, Anarchist Cultural Circle “Gogliardo Fiaschi”, was also searched. Magazines, books, leaflets, posters and digital material were confiscated.
