Athens, Greece: INCENDIARY ATTACK ON THE HOUSE OF RETIRED COPS by Andreas Baader Cell

Athens: INCENDIARY ATTACK ON THE HOUSE OF RETIRED COPS.

We take responsibility for the incendiary attack on the house of retired cop Fotis Theodoros in Kaisariani Aarea, at 5 Manoliassas Street. We were very pleased to learn in the days that followed that a second retired cop lived in the same building.

The reason for this attack was the State murder of Kostas Fragoulis by the uniformed garbage of the DIAS cops team. Once again, the agents of the State apparatus murder in cold blood, but this time, as last year with Nikos Sabanis, race became the main issue in the political and social arena. As anarchists we do not need to analyse our position, it is clear. But we ought to recall that this is not a random incident but a manifestation of the wider war that is being waged doggedly by the State and capitalism against the oppressed of this world and especially against those who dare to question their sovereignty. We are taking a stand in this war and declare that we will walk through your homes and over your dead bodies.

It is not fitting for the flame of a candle to be lit over a young grave, whole States should be in flames. C.C.F. (for the murder of A. Grigoropoulos)

London,UK : Vandalism at the Italian Cultural Center in London in Solidarity with anarchist Alfredo Cospito

Vandalism at the Italian Cultural Center in London

It appears that on 24th February, something unfortunate happened to the Italian Cultural Institute in London.

At this sophisticated outpost of the Italian state, guests are invited to enjoy a current series of lectures, from handpicked academic experts, on the great social and political issues of the day, with the ambassador in attendance. The previous week, the audience was treated to a discussion of the energy transition, and next week the theme was to be Justice.

All this makes it so regretable that the building’s romanesque facade, with elegant white columns and heavy wooden door, seems to have been soaked in paint by some vandal[s] clearly without the capacity to appreciate such things.

EN/IT/PORTUGUES/ES/FR: INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN OF ATTACK ON THE ITALIAN STATE/CAPITAL

(ENGLISH):

INTERNATIONAL CAMPAIGN OF ATTACK ON THE ITALIAN STATE/CAPITAL

On February 24, 2023, the Italian “justice” system rejected the appeal
filed by Alfredo Cospito’s lawyers against 41bis. The appeal action
requested his transfer out of the regime of extreme and severe isolation
for which our comrade has been enduring a hunger strike for more than 4
months.

The State has, nonetheless, maintained his position: Alfredo has to
continue under the 41bis prison regime.

This decision confirms the fears we have been having for a long time:
our comrade is going to die and the State is his executioner.

The structures and capitalist interests of the Italian State spread
their tentacles around the planet. It is relevant to remind everyone
that those who manage and uphold the status quo are people clothed in
flesh and bones with names and addresses.

Parcel bomb against the head of the prison guards union CSIF, Zaragoza, January 25, 2023

Alfonso Peiró is not a mere jailer. For some reason he is impelled to defend corporate impunity, specifically in the macro-prison of Zuera, Zaragoza.

When the prisoners vent their anger among themselves or against themselves, everything goes on as usual. However, when someone dares to return violence to the henchmen of confinement, doubly despicable characters like Alfonso Peiró come out to bawl victimhood.

The few possible consequences of our attentions are nothing compared to what characters of his ilk and their superiors would deserve.

Grand Est,France : sabotage of an EHV pylon, some technical advice

Communique #2: Sabotage of an extra-high voltage pylon in France/

Grand Est

Indymedia Lille, February 12, 2023

In December 2022, in solidarity with the hunger-striking prisoner Alfredo Cospito, we sabotaged an EHV pylon and partially removed its bolts (https://actforfree.noblogs.org/post/2022/12/27/france-grand-est-attack-against-nuclear-infrastructure-in-solidarity-with-alfredo-cospito/). The sabotage of a high voltage line is not without risk and, even if it is done without error, there is always some risk. However, we found this risk acceptable and the action entertaining. Since direct action is always an attempt to motivate and inspire other contexts, we had already announced our intention to give some technical advice:

Choice of target: When choosing the mast, make sure that the insulators (the ceramic coils to which the cables are attached) are vertical! A diagonal or horizontal position indicates a tensile load in the corresponding direction. Choose the most isolated location possible. Make sure that there are no people between the object and the nearest pylons (e.g. busy roads crossing the line). Choose your escape route so that it cannot be blocked by the falling line.

Risk assessment/mitigation: It happens occasionally (although rarely) that electricity pylons bend or fall, even without sabotage. This can happen, for example, due to storms, the weight of snow, or simply material fatigue or inadequate maintenance. The result is a risk of premature collapse of the mast. This risk increases with each screw loosened and exponentially with each foot completely unscrewed. It is up to you, as a group, to decide how far you want to go. In all cases, plan the action taking into account the possibility of the mast falling while you are still there. Both at the base of the mast and where the cables touch the ground, there is a potentially lethal amounts of electricity on the ground within a certain radius! Move away from the object as quickly as possible in the opposite direction of the fall. Ensure that your body remains in contact with the ground at all times (grounding), walking with small “shuffling” steps. Make sure that the weather conditions are favorable. Do not perform this action in strong wind, heavy rain or snowfall!

Hanover : Siemens under fire

de.indymedia, February 10, 2023

On the night of February 7-8, 2023, we placed incendiary devices with delays under four vehicles of the company Siemens in Hannover/Laatzen. Unfortunately, not all of them burned, but we know for sure that at least one of them was completely destroyed.

From Lützerath to Yucatán, Siemens is involved in every sordid affair!

Digitization, automation, data and signal transmission, energy generation, electrification, extension of the railway network – Siemens provides the infrastructural basis for capitalist and neo-colonial exploitation worldwide.

Five years after the evacuation of Bois Lejuc: ANDRA’s Flux branch burnt down in Osne le Val near Bure. FRANCE

Five years after the evacuation of Bois Lejuc: ANDRA’s Flux branch burnt down in Osne le Val near Bure.

It took two decades of struggle to create a situation allowing an open balance of power against the CIGEO project with the occupation of Bois Lejuc, which was defended for nearly two years under pressure and attacks from ANDRA mercenaries* .

It has now been five years since this front line broke following the violent and brutal eviction of the occupiers by 500 gendarmes on February 22, 2018 and, with it, a central place of resistance disappeared.
What followed was an unprecedented wave of repression in the region; Surveillance, raids, arrests, trials, prison sentences and other repressive instruments implemented have prevented and made difficult an offensive reorganization of the struggle.

The psychological wounds left by this difficult and traumatic time are slowly healing and there will forever be a scar in our hearts. Despite the evacuation of the forest, the resistance continues today on many levels.

3 machines burned in honor of Tortuguita to defend Weelaunee (usa)

3 machines burned in honor of Tortuguita to defend Weelaunee

Yesterday, it came to Our attention that an area of Weelaunee Forest next to the river, near BlackHall Studios had been clear-cut. The machines they used were left on-site, so in the early morning we came and torched an excavator,bulldozer, and a front-end-loader.

Fuck a machine. Fuck the cops. Fuck liberals who don’t get their hands dirty and try to potray our fallen comrade like some white-washed version of something It (Tortuguita preferred “It” pronouns) was NOT. We believe & hope that Tort did shoot that cop, plain & simple…

At dawn this morning a sacred fire burned in their honor – We just wish more Georgia State Patrol vehicles could have joined the inferno.

Attack on Amazon Delivery Vehicles in Brooklyn, NY in Solidarity with ATL Forest.

Attack Amazon! Attack the Police! Defend Nature! Solidarity with ATL Forest!

On Thursday, Febuary 2nd, we attacked a Rivian charging station in Brooklyn, New York. We hit four Amazon delivery vehicles, and one Rivian vehicle as part of the cost of doing business with Amazon.

We put up a message in memory of Tortuguita, our comrade who was murdered by Atlanta pigs for fighting against “Cop City,” the latest expansion of counter insurgent state violence.

Athens, Greece: CLAIMING RESPONSIBILITY FOR AN INCENDIARY ATTACK ON A CAR DEALERSHIP by Carnivalists of fire

Athens: CLAIMING RESPONSIBILITY FOR AN INCENDIARY ATTACK ON A CAR DEALERSHIP

“Fortune knows that we defy it, and the more it beats us, the more we despise it.” William Shakespeare

In a few months, as we all know, the four-year rule of new democracy with Kyriakos Mitsotakis as prime minister will come to its “happy” end. Before the government even started, it promised many times that (like another Papadopoulos  (dictator leader on 70s) it would ”crack down on anarchy” thus declaring open war on all anarchist-revolutionary-rebellious parts of society.

After 4 years of evictions of squats, bans on strikes and marches, State murders, extreme repression and imprisonment of innocent but proudly ‘guilty’ comrades, we are still here. Although we have had some resounding disappointments and defeats (let us not hide behind our finger) we proudly declare that the anarchist revolutionary movement has not fallen and will never fall without a fight. And that is the only way we ought to look to the continuation of our struggle. For unlike theirs our way has no end. Our road is eternal, etched with the blood of those who sacrificed for Anarchy and Freedom and carved in the footsteps of fire.

That is why we are taking responsibility for the incendiary attack on a car dealership in Kallithea at dawn on 12/2, which, make no mistake, was not for extortion or for blackmail, as the media declared the next day, but as a small blow to the image of normality, security and social peace that prevails in Greek society. We dedicate this attack to all our comrades who, unrepentantly and without fear, still look the enemy in the eye and take it on. Because the ruins of a ‘beautiful’ delegation that tries to cover up the vulgarity of society will always fill us with satisfaction.

Berlin : claim of the attack against the Italian diplomat’s car

On the 100th day of a hunger strike, arson an Italian diplomatic vehicle

We support the idea of decentralized actions and therefore we respond to the call for a week of action from South America in support of the hunger strike of Alfredo Cospito. Communication through actions and texts is an important approach to create an informal network.

With the attack against the Italian diplomatic corps in the German capital, with the targeted arson of the car number 3 of the embassy, we participate in the week of action. It was located in the Schöneberg district, on Barbarossa-Platz, and belonged to Luigi Estero, the first Consigliere.

Nothing is finished, everything begins! Lützerath is now also in Wuppertal. A Siemens van set on fire!

source: https://de.indymedia.org/node/252039

One year after the eviction from the Osterholz forest*, we set fire to a Siemens van on the morning of Wednesday, January 25, in the Sperlingsgasse in Wuppertal-Nützenberg. Siemens is one of the large corporations involved in the exploitation of brown coal in North Rhine-Westphalia as well as in Lützerath, profiting from this dirty business. The crimes for which Siemens is also responsible are summarized here by another action group.

We say basta to the exploitation of people, animals and nature! Let’s continue to fight for a better world with the most diverse forms of action! Lützerath can be a big step forward for the climate movement. Let’s not give up!

Enijoy car fires in Milan

On the night of January 30th, several Enijoy cars were damaged with fire in response to Alfredo’s transfer from Sassari prison to that of Milan. This is the first action claimed, but not the first carried out, by the BANDE ANARCHICHE – NUCLEO GUERRIGLIA [‘Anarchist Bands – Guerrilla Nucleus’]. One of our comrades will die at the hands of the state, it’s our turn to take the leap. Fire to the prisons.

Toulouse (Haute-Garonne) France : Solidarity with the demonstrations against the Lutzerath coal mine!

Solidarity with the demonstrations against the Lutzerath coal mine!
Indymedia Lille, January 22, 2023

On the night of January 19, in Toulouse, near the Demoiselles Bridge, two charging stations for electric cars were burned. We don’t want coal or lithium mines.

These charging stations will increase the need for electricity and the production of new cars, which cannot do without the carbon industry. Nuclear power is therefore not the promise of any transition, but the constant accumulation of industrial resources for a booming energy market. Coal plants reopen in France while they expand in Germany. At the same time, nuclear power gets the green label to impose itself in Europe, and electricity is the pretext for rare earth mining.

Let’s not give in to blackmail: Neither coal nor nuclear! We will only reduce our consumption if we reduce capitalism to a nightmare of the past.
