Brooklyn, New York City: Comrades Destroy NYPD Bus (USA)

Eat It, Eric Adams

The night before last we set a police bus on fire as a peaceful protest against the cops for their repression of anti-genocide demonstrators and activists against Cop City (a plague of a project attempting to emerge all over the country, including New Jersey).

The NYPD are violent suffocators of the people’s will, terrorizers of the homeless in our streets, and act in concert with the IDF, who train them in butchering our freedom. They do all this with no consequences in their future and no fear in their faces—we change this with fire. There are police cars and pro-genocide businesses all over waiting for our spark.

Avenge Bay Ridge!

From cop country to Gaza, GLOBALIZE THE INTIFADA!

VIVA TORT!!!

In revolutionary solidarity,

(Chile) Mauricio Morales en el mapa de la ofensiva anarquista internacional (ES/EN)

22 de mayo de 2024

Desde Informativo Anarquista, proyecto de contra información, escribimos estas palabras a 15 años de la muerte en acción del compañero Mauricio Morales, Punki Mauri.

 *

La muerte es un acontecimiento que nos aleja inevitablemente del cuerpo de quien ha dejado de vivir. Pero tan rápido como el cuerpo se marchita, el imaginario común gira a la aurora y despliega el hecho culmine de la muerte hacia cientos, sino miles, de recuerdos, testimonios y acciones que forjan en la piel una vitalidad capaz de impulsar un corazón que late en todas direcciones.

La memoria no es un ejercicio de unanimidad ni de plenitud homogénea. No siempre tiene los mismos puntos de referencia ni las mismas explicaciones. Lo que sí, es colectiva, a la vez que integra matices y particularidades que responden a lugares propios, a voces solitarias o sueltas, que convergen y se encuentran en determinadas ocasiones entre unas y otras. En tal sentido, la memoria anárquica ha sido un punto de conexión, un motivo de encuentro que da paso a la búsqueda y al acercamiento de afinidades con las decisiones y caminos que unx compañerx construyó en vida.

Annual Chaotic-Anarchist Gathering #2 May 30 – June 3, 2024 Hambacher Forest North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany


Programm 2024

Active Internationalism

As a starting point for this discussion, we propose to orientate ourselves on a text from an anarchist meeting in Brussels in 2011. Even though certain circumstances have changed since then, it can still serve as a starting point.

The old internationalist tale

Having a fast look at the era of the first International and the revolutionary brotherhoods which in those days were able to stimulate and stir up a permanent insurrectional tension across the borders, tells us a lot about the paradoxal situation we are now living in. Never before have there been so many means of transport, travel and communication, never before were the curcumstances in different countries so much alike and yet it seems as if we, anarchists and revolutionaries, have never been so much attached to the stately borders. Paradoxaly it seems as if the globalisation of the domination goes together with the de-internationalisation of its declared enemies.

It´s not that all left-overs of the old internationalist tale have been swept away, but let´s be frank: it´s a dim situation. We don´t really get any further than solidary pats on the back and in the best case some sharing of experiences and projectualities. Simply having a look at the shameful lack of perspectives around the insurrections across the meditarenean (or, as you wish, around the revolt of december 2008 in Greece) is sufficient to become aware of this.

Open letter from Return Fire magazine to the 2024.03.29-31 International Anti-Prison / Anti-Repression Gathering -UK

[A4 PDF version for printing]

“The event aims to be an informal and self-organised gathering of activists, representatives and delegates from groups active in the prisoner solidarity / anti-prison / anti-repression struggle, one focused on the consolidation of international solidarity…”

– second call-out for the International Anti-Prison / Anti-Repression Gathering, Brighton

Hi comrades, known and unknown to us.

We welcome this initiative, and send our love and gratitude to all gathering in Brighton with the aim of together building a more durable and combative struggle against the authoritarian nightmare of the present-day. From the limits of our own capacity, we’d like to offer some thoughts; reflections that have been born from decades of shared struggle and over 10 years of publishing our magazines with a strong presence of anti-repression/anti-prison documentation and agitation. (This has included putting out texts and translations from comrades behind bars, sometimes with the direct participation of the prisoners themselves.) As limited and fallible as they are, they are what we have to offer: they are here for you and the comrades back in your own areas to do with as you will. Considering the international dimension of the gathering, we have tried to provide adequate context for those less familiar with recent cycles of struggle on these isles, and we have also brought our thoughts into conversation with other writings produced in the course of the struggle in past years, with their questions, analysis and proposals.

Revolutionary Prisoners News

Anarchist Comrade Thanos Hatzianggelou was released from prison on Friday 24/5/24

Comrade Thanos Hatzianggelou was released from prison on Friday 24/5 after a long wait for the answer from the council for his conditional release. The restrictive conditions imposed on him are the ban on leaving Thessaloniki, mandatory residence in the house he had declared in Thessaloniki and two days monthly to present at a police station.

We continue our struggles supporting the prisoners, giving them a voice until the demolition of the last prison. To once again walk side by side with our comrades in the paths of rebellion and disobedience. Until total liberation.

Milan, Italy: Hammer blows against a RE/MAX estate agency (26 March 2024)

Milan, hammer blows against Remax

During the night between Monday 25th and Tuesday 26th March we paid a visit to the estate agents Remax in Via Noe in Milan, damaging the windows with writings and hammer blows.

This company, along with many others, does business with Israel, speculating on the expulsion of the Palestinians from the land and houses they are living in. Houses that Remax are making huge profits from reselling and renting to Israeli settlers.

THE CELLS DO NOT HOLD COMRADES
STRENGTH TO COMRADE ANDREA F.
SOLIDARITY IS THE PEOPLE’S WEAPON

——————————–

from the Patras Solidarity Assembly

On Monday, April 22, the anti-terrorists raided the house of comrade Andrea F. in Patras, kidnapped him and took him to Athens. He is facing serious charges under the Terrorism Act. Once again the anti-terrorist scenarios are proclaimed as indisputable truth, regardless of whether they collapse like a house of cards dozens of times in the courts. In any case, the prosecuting authorities are not interested in anything other than gaining impressions and producing work to the order of the respective government, serving political expediencies, especially in view of the European elections. The entrenchment of a sense of security translates into brute force and repression, control and discipline, and police-military management of social issues.

OPEN LIBRARY
“TOTAL LIBERATION”

The “total liberation” open library is an experimental project of solidarity and collective reading. The basic vision of the library is to spread the ideas of total liberation through the prism of antispeciesism, to create a pole of attraction, transmission and intersection of the ideas of the liberation of animals and the earth in the context of the anarchist struggle. At this stage, for some time, it will have a mobile format with some titles from the catalogue available for some hours at a predetermined point at a given time.

GATHERING – RESPONSE TO THE PROSECUTIONS OF ANTIFASCISTS FOR THE BUDAPEST CASE (Athens,Greece)

GATHERING IN DEFENCE OF MILITANT ANTIFASCISM – Friday May 24, 19:00 embassy of Hungary, Vasileos Konstantinou 38, Athens

Every year since 1997, on the 11th of February, a large number of far-right and neo-Nazi groups flock to Budapest for public events, commemorating the attempted escape of the besieged Nazi SS and Wermacht troops and their local collaborators from Budapest in 1945, shortly before the liberation of the city from the Red Army forces. This day is a reference point and meeting point for the European far right and takes place with the full tolerance of the Hungarian state, as this date is presented as a day of historical remembrance by the apologists and nostalgists of the Nazis.

On 11 February 2023, the Hungarian police made 6 arrests, with the Italian comrade Ilaria and the German comrade Tobias being in Hungarian prisons since then, accused of attacking Neo-Nazis during public far-right events in Budapest on the occasion of the so-called Memorial Day. In particular, Ilaria is accused of participating in two attacks against Nazis, with the aggravating circumstance of “endangering a victim’s life”, while also being accused of knowing, without herself being involved, of the existence of an international criminal association that organized the attacks in questions. While our German comrade Tobias along with another German comrade are being accused of participation in a criminal organization.
