WAR IS EVERYWHERE

The ongoing war in Ukraine between the Russian Federation and NATO is not a local conflict, but part of a global clash for the partitioning of the world that threatens to erupt elsewhere every day (Africa, Serbia, Azerbaijan, Armenia…). Having become a veritable meat grinder, with hundreds of thousands of deaths among forcibly conscripted soldiers and civilians, the conflict in Ukraine is already having an impact on African populations forced to emigrate due to the rising cost of cereals and the ensuing escalation in local clashes. After letting more than a hundred people drown in Cutro, the Italian government prepares its iron fist against migrants and immigrants (opening of new concentration camps in every Region, administrative detention even for asylum seekers), while boosting its Italian imperialism with the “Mattei plan for Africa”.

THE WAR IS ALSO HERE

A society at war can only be a secured and militarized society.

Between permanent States of Emergency and supposedly green transitions, smart city projects are preparing the transformation of cities into real digital prisons, flanking the already ubiquitous police and military with the installation of facial recognition cameras (as in the case of the “new ZTL” in Rome and Milan), sensors that monitor cellular traffic, smart control booths (as in Venice) and even microphones (as in Trento).

Statement of solidarity to the comrades struck by operation “Scripta scelera”

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.
