LAMBROS FOUNTAS IS IMMORTAL by Pola Roupa and Nikos Maziotis (Greece)

 

 LAMBROS FOUNTAS IS IMMORTAL

10/03/2024

It has been 14 years since the death in a clash with policemen of our comrade Lambros Fountas on March 10, 2010. All these years, whether in the underground continuing the action of the Revolutionary Struggle when we dedicated to him the attack on the Central Bank-ECB-IMF in 2014, or in prison, we always had him on our minds. And of course he will be in our memory and our heart as long as we are alive.

It is known that when we assumed political responsibility for our participation in the Revolutionary Struggle, we publicly announced with the “Political Letter to the Society”, that Lambros Fountas was killed in a preparatory action of our organization, in an attempt to sabotage the country’s inclusion in the memorandum, i.e. in the program of the IMF, the ECB and the EU, something that had already been decided by the then government of G. Papandreou and we had predicted as an organization since the fall of 2009. He is the first and last dead fighter of the social resistance against the memoranda, against an era that opened with the imposition of the 1st loan agreement in the spring of 2010.

Greece – anarchist prisoner D. Chatzivasiliadis in solitary confinement because he remained consistent with his registered refusals.

Today 19/3, Dimitris Hatzivasiliadis was transferred to the prison of Diavata, to the manor of chief torturer Valsamis, for the appeal court of the expropriation of the bank in Thessaloniki (2021).

The comrade, as always in the dozens of transfers for courts that have been made in the two and a half years of his captivity, refused to be taken of hes clothes complicity.. This is a refusal won by political prisoners long ago and has been consolidated over the last 15 years. Before the investigation the comrade asked to have access to a payphone like every other prisoner, and a minimum of time in the yard, as provided by the penal code.

Following the defense’s appeal of the 86 year sentence of anarchist comrade Francisco Solar, this coming March 27, the San Miguel Appeals Court will dictate the definitive sentence.

This past week arguments were made for an annulment action entered by Francisco Solar’s defense before the San Miguel Appeals Court. This action, according to lawyer Nicolás Toro, of Francisco’s legal team, is based in “different infractions to the valuation of the trial, to sane critique and to errors of law in the sentence according to the criteria of the defense”.

Open letter-contribution from Toby Shone ( UK – Italy)

——————–

THE SUBVERSIVE WRITTEN WORD

Dear comrades,

This is Toby Shone, an anarchist imprisoned in the operation Adream which was an antiterrorist investigation against the counter-information project 325. I am calling from a prison in northwest England, it’s a long term, high security prison, and the fact that we can steal these moments is very important.

As you may already know, Operation A-dream was a repressive attack by the UK state in which 3 collective housing projects, a family home and storage unit were raided by cops. I was accused of being an administrator of 325.nostate, which earned me 4 terrorist charges: section 2 (distribution of terrorist publications), section 15 (funding terrorism) and two counts of section 58 (possession of information which is likely to be useful for terrorist purposes). I was also accused of several direct actions and membership of FAI, ELF and ALF. Hundreds of police were involved in the simultaneous raids and despite this, only one of the comrades were briefly detained and subsequently released for lack of evidence. It’s clear through the conditions of imprisonment I am held under and the constant monitoring that an active investigation continues with tailings and surveillance of comrades on the outside along with observation of anarchist social spaces.

(Chile) Against Patriarchy, in Pursuit of the Foundations of Anarchy’s Paths of Negation

By Mónica Caballero

March 5, 2024 / informativoanarquista

From La Zarzamora [https://lazarzamora.cl/?p=12114]

The economic system that currently governs the territory dominated by the chilean State and practically all western States is capitalism. Capitalism, in simple terms, was founded in commerce and industry (means of production) which are organized and controlled by its owners, meaning: businessmen.

For capitalism to take root and endure over time as a political economic system, it needed a patriarchal social structure, understood as the social organization where the authority of men is exercised from the family, and reaching through all practices of domination. For this reason, it would be difficult to pose a radical, emancipator change without ending up totally destroying capitalism and patriarchy. Oppressive, authoritarian patriarchal structures have (mal)formed practically all the relations that we have with others and ourselves.

March 1, 2024 / informativoanarquista

“All of these young people planted seeds of rebellion and today we continue learning from their successes and errors, each autumn we gather to glimpse ourselves, to contrast our realities, to analyze the grim context we live in and though our present may be very bitter we continue resisting.”

– Tomás and Mawvnkho

This past January 18, the comrade Tomás González was sentenced to 16 years in prison, setting his release date for 2038. Remembering that his co-accused Mawünkho has been free for months after having received an abbreviated sentence accepting the charges handed down by the Prosecutor.

Greece: A few words about the ‘witch hunt’ of the Counterterrorism by anarchist comrade Fotis Tziotizis

I no longer cease to be amazed and wonder what the police and journalists come up with for cases that disrupt their peace. I have seen and read a lot these days about the alleged major operation of the DAEEV (Directorate for Dealing with Special Violent Crimes ΔΑΕΕΒ, Anti Terrorist) and the dismantling of a dangerous terrorist organization.

Vile absurdities were uttered, scenarios of science fiction. They even went so far as to talk about payments between those involved in order to create the narrative of organized crime and dangerous individuals. False information was published concerning the 6 detainees, using previous conversations from people who had absolutely no connection with each other, thus creating an atmosphere of confusion and misdirection.

Ex-RAF Militant Arrested After Thirty Years Underground, and updates. (Berlin,Germany)

A 30-year manhunt ended in the heart of Berlin when police special forces arrested former Red Army Faction guerrilla fighter Daniela Klette. She is one of the famous RAF trio, three ex-militants still on the run and among the most wanted in Germany. This trio emerged from the leadership of the third and final generation of the urban guerrilla group.

The arrest of Klette in Berlin marked the end of her successful evasion of authorities for over 30 years. Klette, now 66 years old, was found in an apartment where ammunition was allegedly discovered. Her identity, allegedly, was confirmed through her fingerprints.

Alongside Ernst-Volker Staub and Burkhard Garweg, they have managed to elude capture for decades. The arrest in Berlin could tighten the circle around her comrades.
