(Greece) If We Are Afraid Today, We Will Be Afraid Tomorrow and Forever – Dimitra Zarafeta

If We Are Afraid Today, We Will Be Afraid Tomorrow and Forever 

It took 512 days for the authorities to finally decide that it was time to try our case, the Ampelokipi case. Just one breath before the end of the 18-month period. Not because the investigative process was truly endless, nor because new evidence was constantly emerging in the meantime. From the very first moment, the facts were more or less the same.

The choice, however, to set the trial at the last minute was neither accidental nor procedural. It was a purely political choice, a conscious method so that the process would run on a fast track and the desired decision would be produced, with the same speed. Nevertheless, in this last text of mine before the trial, I will not dwell in detail on the practices and methods that the judicial authorities employ against us. These are already known to anyone who wants to see them.

BERLIN: ALONGSIDE OUR COMRADES SARA AND SANDRONE (Germany)

Sometimes our life places us before a choice; and sometimes that choice asks everything of us.
Our comrades have dedicated their lives to fighting oppression, in the name of a better world for all, free from domination and exploitation.
We remain by their side, today and forever, carrying their struggle into the streets again and again, and holding their strength, their courage, and their unbreakable determination in our hearts.
Our comrades have fallen for an ideal, an ideal in which we continue to belive with stubborn resolve, with all our hearts and all our strength.

For this reason, Sara and Sandrone, nothing is over…everything continues, until we see rise that beautiful sun called Anarchy.

I Defend, I Don’t Apologize by anarchist Marianna Manoura (Greece)

In the midst of revelations of all kinds of government scandals and the participation of the Greek state in the war unleashed by the US and Israel against Iran, the repressive mechanism decided to deal with the “internal enemy”. Three weeks before the first hearing, we were notified of the start of our trial. On April 1 and one month before the end of the 18-month period, the process begins. A process based on an obviously inflated indictment where it is obvious that four of the five defendants have nothing to do with or knew about what was going to happen on 31/10. The court’s focus, however, is not exclusively to highlight the otherwise well-used tactics of the anti-terrorist unit, but to defend the memory of the revolutionary Kyriakos Xymitiris and the armed means of resistance he decided to adopt against this cannibalistic system.

From the very beginning, the prosecuting authorities with the counter-terrorism at the helm saw this specific case as an ideal event to open yet another fan of persecutions and imprisonments of people. The apparent inability of the anti-terrorism police to establish even a pretextually credible indictment held us all hostage, with requests to terminate the temporary detention being rejected in all the interim judicial councils (six months and twelve months) with flimsy justifications. The case was thus kept open, in the absence of any new evidence to justify it, with the councils’ dismissive reasoning self-refuting at points, trying to find a new narrative in order to exhaust the limit of pre-trial detention for all the defendants, thus attempting to satisfy two goals: on the one hand, the consolidation of state vindictiveness and on the other hand, the maintenance of the narrative of a terrorist organization. An organization without a name, without a history, without action, without even a substance, the invention of which serves on the one hand spectacular-communicational reasons, but also a serious upgrade of the indictment that carries the risk of lethal penalties.

 Contributions from Eat (Reyhard Rumbayan) and a video: ‘From the Carcass of a Rotting World’ with english subtitlles for the solidarity info night 24th of March in south London, UK, about the repression after the uprising across the Indonesian archipelago.

————–

I am a detainee in what is being called the “Chaos Star” case. I was
arrested in Makassar on September 23rd, 2025, by West Java Regional Police, along with dozens of counterterrorism units from Densus 88.

I have been accused of being the mastermind behind the spontaneous uprisings that took place between August and September across several cities in Indonesia, particularly Jakarta and Bandung. The authorities also accuse me of inciting acts of vandalism, and of orchestrating a bombing at a police post in West Java in December 2024.

Text written on March 21st in memory of our anarchist comrades Sara Ardizzone and Alessandro Mercogliano. (Italy)

[it, es, fr, de, en]

Stronger than death

There is an enormous difference between the violence of the oppressed and that of the oppressors: the former follows an ethic, the latter doesn’t.
(Sara Ardizzone)

Our ability to speak and communicate does not allow us to venture down the unbeaten paths of personal accountability for the risks we take. Any discussion along these lines remains inevitably tentative and inadequate. To truly seek freedom — in its authentic and complete form, not in the counterfeit versions bestowed and imposed by the state — means entering into the realm of risk inherent in the quest itself. In this realm, our choices — often wild and solitary — carve out a path of no return. Freedom is a quality that is experienced by putting oneself at risk.

We say this without resorting to any rhetorical indulgence: the two anarchists found dead after the collapse of a farmhouse in Rome, Sara Ardizzone and Alessandro Mercogliano, are our close comrades, we are proud to have them as our comrades. The paid hacks, from whose trashy paper we learned of the incident, write about the detonation of an explosive artefact. The attempts to distance oneself, always aimed at ensuring a shameful sense of security, do not belong to us. We are used to never believe what is uttered by the propaganda machine, but if there is a glimmer of truth about the “leaked” information we cannot fail to dwell on the fundamental fact: Sara and Sandro died in action, died in the battle. Social war is not a stunt, a life style or a subculture. It is, first and foremost, a war. Sara and Sandro are a shining example of the inseparable bond between thought and deed which inspires the anarchism, revolutionaries until the very last moment of their lives, and in death.

Who let the dogs out… update on repression against anarchists in Munich

Perhaps the prosecutor, Eva Firoozi, should have been a novelist. Maybe she would have been one of those best selling authors who, due to their political correctness and lack of humor, spoil the pleasure of reading, but at least she would have done less damage. It must have been more or less intentional that the dream team from the Munich attorney generals office (General-SA) Reinhard Röttle and the leader and founder of the ZET, Georg Freutsmiedl, hired such an employee.

The new boss of the ZET, Gabriele Tilmann, also didn’t just hire this social justice warrior just to fill the quota for women in office. No, in Munich, in all of Bavaria actually, there “is no room for anarchists, squatters, etc” according to the ever humorous Franz Joseph Strauß. And if these anarchists don’t leave the city of their own accord, then we need creative employees like Eva Firoozi. Much to the regret of the anarchists of course. Not because we take Eva Firoozi particularly seriously, or are even scared of her. No, we’re just sick of reading her absurdly poorly written indictments. They are filled with plot holes; the logic of the story doesn’t add up, and the characters are two-dimensional. You don’t have to be a student of literature to see that.

Indonesia conjures up images of resorts and attractions for the empty ‘adventures’ of the tourist industry. In fact it is an archipelago of cancerous exploitation which the UK is complicit in to the tune of 2.86 billion dollars a year dispersed in investments in oil and its byproducts (BP), Nickel (for the batteries of the totalitarian ‘green’ transition)and hyper exploitation of labour (the garment industry, Nike in particular).

Last year the elites governing the state in Indonesia awarded themselves a lavish increase in their ‘MPs expenses’ triggering mass protests across the country. In August 2025 an armored vehicle hunting one of these protests crushed a motorcycle delivery driver to death. The archipelago exploded in riotous uproar, burning and destroying every visible symbol of power in its way, spreading everywhere, uncontrollably. Just like in Nepal, Madagascar, Morocco, Iran, and many more, the dispossessed woke up in joyous collusion against the regimes which imprison them.

Since then, anarchists have been designated by judges and TV studios alike as the enemy of the moment. Mass roundups are taking place, torture is widespread, many comrades are in prison, many have been driven into clandestinity. They have clearly been singled out not only due to their impassioned and uncompromising presence among their exploited brothers and sisters in the uprising, but also because of the continuity of their anti-political revolutionary struggle which has spanned self-organised resistance to land grabs to nocturnal assaults on banks and police outpost for years.

We want to share these encounters with anyone who desires to take back their own life. The spirit, action and quality of the Indonesian anarchists is a wellspring of inspiration for proud exiles from the world constructed by the powerful murderers of earth and freedom. In the first place we want to contribute to the continuation of the struggle of the comrades facing down state-terrorism in Indonesia.

In the second place we want to break our complicity with the global war on thought, dignity and nature, and take up our complicity in the social war against all forms of power.

FIRE TO PRISONS, STATES AND PALACES – DOWN WITH PATRIARCHY (Athens, Greece)

MARCH 8 – GATHERING AT KORYDALLOS WOMEN’S PRISONS, 7 PM

FIRE TO PRISONS, STATES AND PALACES – DOWN WITH PATRIARCHY

For the past year and a half, our comrades Marianna Manoura and Dimitra Zarafeta have been imprisoned behind the bars of Korydallos, accused of participation in a terrorist organization, awaiting their trial. On October 31, 2024, an explosion in an apartment cost the life of our friend and comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris and seriously injured Marianna. This marked the beginning of the “Ampelokipoi case” and the subsequent witch hunt against anarchists. Despite being severely injured, Marianna was arrested and taken to prison just one day after her surgery, while Dimitra turned herself in to the Greek authorities a few days after the incident (comrades Dimitris, Nikos Romanos, and A.K. were also arrested). The imprisonment of our comrades is the result of yet another poorly constructed scenario by the anti-terrorism police, aimed at targeting anarchist action and thought, repressing solidarity, criminalizing comradely relationships, and spreading a climate of fear and repress anyone who chooses to struggle.

Beyond anarchist action, the reasons that lead women, femininities, trans and non-binary people to prison are multiple, as are the oppressions they face: class, racism, patriarchy, exploitation, and more. In women’s prisons, gendered and class oppression takes extreme forms. Continue reading FIRE TO PRISONS, STATES AND PALACES – DOWN WITH PATRIARCHY (Athens, Greece)

New project: “Solidarity is the Way” in support of deserters and those fleeing war

People move. This is a reality, plain and simple. It is criminalized and made painful, and even lethal, by the borders created by states, capitalism, xenophobes and wars.

We do not want to stand idly by. We strive to show practical solidarity with people who have decided to leave Ukraine because they have deserted or simply because they want to hide from the war, avoid mobilization, repression, or the cult of militarism and nationalism.

We are unable to assist people in crossing the state border. However, if they manage to move to Romania, we can share our resources and infrastructure with them.

Opening Arguments and Testimony from Alvarado Officer at Center of Prairieland Case Marks First Day of Landmark Trial Against Nine Defendants (USA)

Testimony of Lt. Thomas Gross Undermined Government Arguments that the Noise Protest on July 4, 2025 Was an “Ambush” and “Planned Attack”
FORT WORTH, TX – Opening arguments and testimony from the Alvarado police officer at the center of the controversial Prairieland ICE Detention Center case marked the first day of trial yesterday against nine defendants. The federal government offered no new or compelling arguments in their opening statement and relied heavily on First Amendment-protected activity to make their case. However, during cross-examination, Alvarado police officer Lt. Thomas Gross revealed information that undermines the government’s narrative that the noise demonstration on July 4, 2025 was an “ambush” and that police were the targets of a “planned attack.” 

During today’s proceedings, the defense team was able to cross-examine Lt. Gross, who was injured at the scene. This is the first time Gross has spoken publicly since the incident. He described a hectic scene with few details, claiming to see only a small handful of male individuals, despite multiple women defendants in the case.
