The second issue of the insurrectionary / nihilist anarchist newspaper”Blessed Is The Flame”, originally published in 8 July 2024 in Greek, has now been translated in English. By doing so, we hold the ambition that this newspaper can become an international effort, bringing together all the direct action reports, statements and texts of comrades, and news about the struggles of anarchist prisoners that are scattered across the world, divided by language and communication barriers.

We make a call to any willing comrades around the world to assist us in translating the newspaper in other languages as well and diseminate it both digitally and physically; the document was designed to be easily printable as a A5-size booklet. Ideally, we would like to suggest an international collaboration between counter-information projects from all corners of the world, defying the recent repression efforts of various states who want to put an end to the diffusion of the ideas and practices of the anarchy of action.

La Tronche/Grenoble (Isère): cutting the juice from this world (France)

Grenoble metropolitan area: transformers set on fire, homes without electricity

France Bleu, June 13, 2024

Firefighters responded to several fires on the night of Wednesday June 12 to Thursday June 13 in the Grenoble metropolitan area. In La Tronche, but also near the Grand’Place shopping center in Grenoble, where several stores were without power. An investigation has been opened by the Grenoble public prosecutor’s office, and entrusted to the criminal investigation department, as the destruction of these two electrical substations is reminiscent of the wave of fires in Grenoble in recent years.

In fact, according to Grenoble public prosecutor Eric Vaillant, “the near-simultaneity of the fires at the two transformers, located some ten kilometers apart, suggests sabotage by the libertarian ultra-left. No claims have yet been made, but they aren’t always claimed.

A first fire on an electrical transformer broke out on avenue du Grand Sablon in La Tronche at 1.20 a.m., leaving 80 households without power. Enedis set up temporary generators at 8 a.m. to supply power to the nearby funeral home. These generators will provide power to the affected households until the work is completed. The work could last several days and cost several tens of thousands of euros.

Rome, Italy: Demonstration of 28 January 2023 at Trastevere: 4th of July the preliminary hearing of the proceedings

July 4th is the date of the preliminary hearing of the proceedings for the events of piazza Trilussa and Trastevere, in Rome, of 28 January, 2023.

On that day the indictment concerning the 13 comrades accused of resisting a public official and of carrying weapons or objects likely to offend, with numerous aggravating circumstances, will be requested. We recall that at the time of the events the anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito had been on hunger strike for 101 days against 41 bis and a life sentence without appeal. That Saturday afternoon a demonstration in solidarity was called in piazza Trilussa, in Rome, which the police forces decided to surround and provoke. However that evening the plans did not go as foreseen in the offices of the police, with a part of the demonstrators remaining outside the encirclement and the police forces ending up in the grip of those whom they wanted to provoke.

Munich (Germany): ghosts continue to haunt the night

Munich, ghosts continue to haunt the night    

Around 3:30 a.m. on Wednesday night, April 4, Munich firefighters were alerted to a major blaze in the Meillerweg district, just a few hundred meters from the Maximilianeum, the historic seat of the Bavarian State Parliament. On the scene, they discovered four pieces of construction equipment being consumed by flames: a backhoe, two wheel loaders and a Unimog (a small Mercedes all-terrain utility truck).

Except that this is not just any old place, because in addition to being a stone’s throw from the Palace of the Rulers of the Kingdom of Bavaria, it’s also the construction site for the second main line of the capital’s S-Bahn subway system. To be more precise, it involved relocating a district heating pipe to build a relief shaft from the railway tunnel. The four machines, located far apart, were completely destroyed, with damage running into six figures. The Bavarian Central Office for Combating Extremism and Terrorism (ZET) and the “Raute” investigation group were on the scene with sniffer dogs and forensic police.

Fortunately for them, the minions of law and order have a serious lead, as revealed by a major regional newspaper a few weeks later (Süddeutsche Zeitung, May 10): it’s probably ghosts, perhaps escaped from Ludwig II’s famous castle at Neuschwanstein (but on this last point, the cops are less formal).Let’s be the judge, since with this latest sabotage against the subway construction site, investigators are now attributing some 30 destructive attacks to Munich’s ghosts, causing at least 20 million euros worth of damage: “They set fire to power lines and construction equipment, telecoms antennas and electric vehicles; railroads are also the target of their attacks, as are geothermal pipelines. The identity of the perpetrators and their origins remain a mystery. Like ghosts, they leave no exploitable trace and no statement claiming the action. Who has an interest in attacking the critical infrastructure of Greater Munich? This is the question security services have been asking themselves since the series of attacks began at least three years ago.The damage caused so far is approaching the €20 million mark.”

Central Greece : Αgainst the destruction of central Evia

 

Αgainst the destruction of central Evia

At this moment, the State and investors are planning the looting of the last piece of green in central Evia. In particular, Ellaktor of Vardinogianni and the Portuguese multinational EDP Renewables are planning to place 86 wind turbines in the mountainous green areas of Dirfyos, Xerovouni, the Kotylaia Mountains and the Euboean Olympus. In fact, following the recent rejection by the ΑΠΕ of the appeal made by residents and associations of Evia, the implementation of this project is just around the corner.

Mountains of Euboean Olympus

Green Repower, the company of the forestor – sometimes also investor(!) – Eleftherios Karapidakis, is a company preparing environmental impact studies of Development & Evaluation of RES Projects. The specific subject has signed studies for a series of disastrous “green” investments throughout the Greek region, such as Evia, Agrafa, Boeotia, serving his personal benefit as well as those of his bosses.

Athens, Greece: Breakthrough on Israeli targets from down to the down by Renovations/Demolitions Initiative

Athens: Breakthrough on Israeli targets from down to the down

Words seem trivial so we call for international solidarity through direct action thus targeting the Israeli capital and interest that is carrying out the genocide in Gaza. We choose to bring the war on to our own terms, to the metropolitan fabric by smashing the Zoia hotels at 25 Metsovou and 30 Kosmas Melodou Streets.

We strike self-interest everywhere and always. An invisible thread connects the struggles of the fighting subjects in Palestine, Chile, the Philippines and in every corner of the planet with the resistance unfolding in every neighbourhood of the Greek region. Resistance and struggles against the suffocating advance of capital.

STATES BRING DEATH,
INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITY FROM BELOW

WE SUPPORT AND STRENGTHEN THE SOLIDARITY STRUGGLES OF THE OPPRESSED

Conversation with an American comrade about Atlanta Forest Struggle and Repression, Friday 28/6, 20:00, Prosfygika Square

The George Floyd uprising opened up new possibilities for militant struggle in the United States. Over the past few years, American anarchists have been seizing these opportunities in a coordinated effort to connect various struggles across the country. “There are no local struggles” and the fight against the police is a fight for earth liberation.
