Gate locked as RCMP attacks logging blockades on Vancouver Island

Submitted anonymously –
On May 17 2021, the same day RCMP scum began enforcing Teal Jones Group’s court injunction against longterm logging blockades in Pacheedaht and Ditidaht territory, we locked TJG’s gate on Grierson Main road.
This action happened inside the injunction zone, within a few hours of the pigs beginning their assault on the brave land defenders at Caycuse blockade.
This gate, one of many in the area installed by Teal Jones to restrict access to their operations, is so easily turned against them. It now obstructs them from further destroying the upper reaches of the already ravaged Camper Creek watershed.

Targets that exist everywhere – a strategic proposal for building a common front against the profiteers of war and repression Rapidly, time marches on; we are already in the 2nd year of the Covid-19 state of emergency and, knowing that no power will ever voluntarily relinquish its new mechanisms of control, anarchist and other libertarian movements all over the globe are looking for strategies and practical means against it. In some regions, social tensions have recently erupted into riots.
Elsewhere, there are short-lived outbreaks known as Corona Riots. As anarchists, we are often surprised by the dynamics, sometimes finding ourselves in the crowd of the street battles or perplexed as spectators on the sidelines. Almost every state deals with us, small groups or individuals, sabotaging, agitating and roaming restless in the cities.

Update on anarchist Alfredo’s situation in Terni prison (Italy, July 13, 2021)

UPDATE ON ALFREDO’S SITUATION IN TERNI PRISON
At the end of June we heard the news that Alfredo had been transferred to Terni prison, where there is a section for imprisoned revolutionaries. To date, however, Alfredo is still being held in the “transit” section, despite the fact that the period of isolation imposed by the Coronavirus emergency regulations has been over for several days.
We do not know why Alfredo is still in isolation, we do not know and are not interested in the plans of the DAP (Department of Penitentiary Administration). What we do know is that the provocations and pretexts of the guards can not erase a historical fact: the existence over the years of an anarchism of action can not be erased by convictions in court or by the pretexts of the jailers.

Nancy/Besançon, France: Some information on the situation of Boris

On April 10, 2020 during the first confinement, fellow anarchist Boris set fire to two cell phone antennas of the four telecom operators in the Jura region, also hosting police and gendarmerie communications.
As he himself explained from the prison where he is now incarcerated for ten months: “The time is ripe for the acceleration of flows and data, for the connectivity of everyday objects to control, listen to, trace, and spy on more and more, to make the human being more and more a slave to the machine. This is what domination calls “progress”, “civilization”. In reality, this project of society has everything of dystopia. Faced with this digital grid, there are not 36,000 solutions. It seems to me necessary to go beyond the stage of criticism and to act here and now, by linking ideas to actions (…). I am part of those who, at the first resounding of the state and sanitary order, refused to lock themselves up at home and went out to attack directly one of the pillars of domination” (Why I burned the two antennas of Mont Poupet, June 2021)

Anarchist comrade Natascia transferred from Santa Maria Capua Vetere prison to that of Rebibbia (Italy, July 10, 2021)

On her 24th day of hunger strike Natascia was finally transferred.
At the moment she is in Rebibbia (Rome), because in the prison of Vigevano (the one closest to Turin and Genoa that has a high security section) there seems to be no place at the moment.

Prometeo Operation: Updates On the Ongoing Trial in Genoa (Italy, May–July 2021)

On May 10 last, the trial of the “Prometeo” trial began, in which the anarchist comrades Natascia, Beppe and Robert are accused of sending three parcel bombs to the former director of the DAP (Dipartimento dell’Amministrazione Penitenziaria, “Department of Penitentiary Administration”), Santi Consolo, and two prosecutors of Turin, Roberto Sparagna and Antonio Rinaudo. The trial is taking place in front of the court of assizes of Genoa, as the indictment (article 280, paragraph 1 and paragraph 3) foresees a sentence starting from 20 years imprisonment. The trial was held by videoconference for the two comrades still locked up, Natascia and Beppe, who “attended” the hearings through a screen from the prisons of Santa Maria Capua Vetere and Bologna respectively. The trial followed a schedule of two hearings a week from May 10 to June 2, and saw a considerable number of carabinieri from the ROS (Raggruppamento Operativo Speciale, “Special Operational Grouping”) and experts from the RIS (Reparto Investigazioni Scientifiche, “Scientific Investigations Department”) summoned as witnesses by the prosecution, represented by prosecutor Federico Manotti and by the civil plaintiff who appeared for Rinaudo.

Italy – Report on the gathering in Santa Maria Capua Vetere on July 4th ,2021

REPORT ON THE GATHERING AT SANTA MARIA CAPUA VETERE ON JULY 4TH  IN SOLIDARITY WITH NATASCIA AND ALL THE PRISONERS!
In the afternoon of Sunday 4th July a group of people descended on the prison of Santa Maria Capua Vetere in solidarity with Natascia, on hunger strike since 16th June, and with all the prisoners.
Many talked expressing strong solidarity with the comrade locked up in AS3, on her third week of hunger strike to obtain a transfer from that jail. It was pointed out how the dispersion of prisoners carried out by the DAP [Department of Prison Administration] with transfers to prisons hundreds and hundreds of kilometres away from loved ones, contexts of life and struggle – and in the case of Natascia, whose trial has already started, making contact with her lawyer almost impossible – is clearly aimed at completely isolating those locked up and at breaking relations of solidarity between those inside and outside. In the face of Natascia’s great determination, we know that a solidarity presence outside the jail holding her prisoner is just a little of what we can do to support her in her battle.

Creil: fire “probably” criminal of a building belonging to Suez
AFP, 8 July 2021 (extract)
A fire “probably” deliberately destroyed a building belonging to the Suez group in Creil (Oise) on the night of Wednesday 7 to Thursday 8 July, according to the public prosecutor’s office, a source close to the investigation establishing a link with the recent installation of video surveillance. According to the police, the fire broke out at around 00:30 in an administrative building of Suez Eau France.
“It almost completely destroyed one of the buildings dedicated to water activities, (…) which houses activities related to customer service, computer servers and archives,” without causing any injuries, a Suez spokeswoman told AFP. “An investigation is underway and in view of the testimonies, it is more than likely that the fire was deliberate,” Jean-Baptiste Bladier, the Senlis public prosecutor, told the AFP news agency. “We are not ruling out a link with the firing of fireworks during the day at a newly installed surveillance camera,” he added. According to a source close to the investigation, “video surveillance cameras had just been installed at a water tower…”.

Action in Caen
17 June 2021
During the night, we vandalized the Socialist Party office (rue Paul Toutain) in Caen. We tagged their facade and embellished it with some rotten eggs (but less rotten than these politicians).
The choice could have been made just as well on the premises of the National Front, the Republicans, the LREM, or La France Insoumise, on any party that participates in this biased political game and in the progression of conservative, republican and reactionary ideas.
Down with their elections, long live self-determination!

direct action against Cigeo
At the beginning of June, the trial for criminal association against 7 people was held in Bar le Duc. A trial against opponents of the nuclear waste burial project in Bure, Meuse. For the State, the stakes are clear: to try to crush at all costs any resistance to the Bure nuclear waste project, one of the missing links in the French and European nuclear chain.
Sold as a clean energy, nuclear power is in fact the opposite. From uranium mining to waste burial, everything is a social and ecological disaster. Just like what the digitalized society promises us. This will require us to produce more and more electrical energy, a growing demand for the future that will have to be met by nuclear power. The geopolitical stakes of digital technology are reminiscent of those that were raised for nuclear power, regardless of the massive refusal they encounter, the damage or the risks, the State has launched its absurd race.

El tiempo pasa y la autoridad permanece, de ahí mismo, surge otro virus en la tierra. Contra ésto, una nueva rebelión es inminente.
Compartir un nuevo momento entre compañerxs a la distancia, es un placer. Pasar de la última edición en la que el mundo entero ardía en protestas y la elite temblaba, al nuevo genocidio de un virus mortal, junto con él de los gobiernos, el capitalismo y el sistema carcelario que siguen intactos. Representa el claro ejemplo, que la autoridad avanza a pasos agigantados.
Mediante su abance, millones de pobres más, millones de ricxs más ricxs y en el medio, millones de muertxs con cada pisada. Para no parecer menos, la policía hizo lo suyo también, matando a Facundo Castro, a cientos más en nombre de la ley y luego victimizandoce (huelga show) por un salario digno. Matando a Ursula Bahillo para luego abogar hipócritamente contra los femicidios de sus propios compañeros y los de ésta sociedad patriarcal-policial. Emilia fue asesinada de un balazo en la frente, por otro sicario del poder. Tehuel sigue sin aparecer y la Iglesia y su moral siguen demostrando lo genocidias que siempre fueron, con el grito de mil niñxs aborígenes torturadxs y enterradxs en fosas common bajo sus templos. Mientras tanto, se idiotiza toda una la sociedad entera undida en deudas y enfermedad con el circo sin pan, con

EXARCHIA WILL LIVE ON. OFF WITH THE METRO FROM THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
Today, 5/7 at around 6:00am a surveyors workgroup and a contractor showed up at the square for setting out the works concerning the construction of a metro station in the square.
Immediately people from the neighbourhood and in solidarity arrived at the square making it clear that the people won’t allow the construction of a metro station in Exarchia, forcing them to leave.

A small attack against Airbnb in Exarchia
Some days before we did an action against an apartment that is being rented through the Airbnb platform in Manis street, Exarchia.
We wrote slogans, painted the key box, we threw leaflets with written on them in English “Housing is not a luxury, stop the evictions and gentrification” and “Immigrants welcome, tourists go to your own homes”. Then we threw paint on the balcony. The Delta cops passed by the point a few minutes before the action and a few minutes after we had finished without understanding anything.

GREECE: TEXT BY NIKOS MAZIOTIS, MEMBER OF REVOLUTIONARY STRUGGLE, ON THE DENIAL OF EXIT PERMIT.

I am already serving 8.5 years in prison for the activities of the organization Lucha Revolucionaria. I have been sentenced for all the attacks of the organization to 137 years in total, of which the new CP stipulates that in 20 years are suspended. According to the «penitentiary» code, even with the latest modifications made by the government last November, when it increased the limits for granting leave to convicts with 10 years or more of sentence – from 1/5 of the sentence as it was before, to 3/10 – I am entitled to be granted a short leave, since instead of the 6 years required for someone with 20 years of sentence, I have served 8.5 years. I should also point out that I have served most of my sentence to the limit of being eligible for parole at 3/5th of it, as stipulated by law for decades. In fact, as I have been informed by the secretariat of the Domokos C.C. where I am detained, in the first months of 2022 I will serve 3/5 of my sentence. That is to say, the 12 years gross of the 20 years of imprisonment which will then include more than 9 years of my stay in prison plus 3 years of working days of beneficial computation in the serving of my sentence.

The granting of short furlough days to prisoners, which has been legislated following prisoner struggles, is essentially a transitional stage in the preparation of prisoners from confinement to release with restrictive conditions due to the suspension of serving the remaining 2/5ths of the sentence.

The man finally surrendered late in the afternoon after an intervention unit decided to climb on to the roof – the prisoner had refused to negotiate until then.

BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA: 4 YEARS AFTER THE DEATH OF ANARCHIST COMRADE SANTIAGO MALDONADO en/es

Four years after the murder of Santiago Maldonado we continue to vindicate our comrade.
Because anarchic memory is action, we call to remember Lechu, emphasizing the ideals and perspectives of our comrade.
We do not forget that Santiago was killed by the repressive agents of the State at a barricade in the Puelmapu, nor do we forget the usurpation that reformist sectors and supporters of this society made of his death, using his look and his body for their political moves. For this reason:
  • This year we propose NOT to use Santiago’s physical image in the propaganda, but rather his songs, ideas and practices, thus fighting the emptying and the washed out image that they have raised from the power.
  • Because we know that Lechu fought for the land and against capital, we propose to emphasize a multiform memory, which inevitably leads us to remember other comrades fallen in these same struggles. Thus, six months after the assassination of Baucis by hired assassins in the midst of the recovery of Mapuche land, we call for Bau to be present in the actions that we carry out.
  • We propose a memory of action that assumes that enemies are everywhere, which broadens our capacity to attack. We can be creative in attacking, let us not forget.
For a black memory,
to multiply propaganda and actions
No comrade is forgotten.
To our comrades in the dungeons of power in Chile, know that you are with us in every action.
July 2021,
MalosAires, Territory (still) dominated by the Argentine State.
