Invitation à la Foire des zines anarchistes 2024 de Montréal (Canada)

Our weapons are courage and beautiful ideas.

Every year in May, the blossoming of spring invites anarchists to reflect upon subversive ideas and practices, from throughout history to present day. Total destruction of all authority is the project that sets our hearts on fire. We are wary of political strategies, and instead propose an anarchy wherein the means and ends are coherent, without waiting for the ‘right moment’, without compromise.

The fight for freedom is infinite, a constant which spans numerous lifetimes, and with endless possiblities. Only through permanent conflict will we create spaces where we can breathe (together) for short while, dreaming of and planning for total freedom.

This Fair is a moment to sharpen the analyses and critiques necessary for the project of insurrection. It’s goal is to nourish your imagination. We’re seeking out those who dream of unlimited freedom, and who are fighting for a complete upheaval of society, not simply it’s re-organization. Books, zines, meet-ups and discussions are indispensible for this project of liberation–they give meaning to our actions, and vice-versa.

We encourage (self)published texts created by comrades who aren’t trapped in the industry of book publishing. We want to free the pen from censorship, and the book from commercialization. We want texts to be distributed through autonomous organization, with the goal of sharing ideas with those who feel inspired by them. This can only occur in a free space, through rejecting copyrights and ‘alternative’ markets. This Fair is organized autonomously, through voluntary association and participation, and without any institutional support.

Join us on the 11 and 12 of May, 2024, under the Van Horne viaduct (North of the tracks). Come for two days of discussions, reading, music, and complicity. There will be several tables with zines and books under the viaduct, and with a few presentations followed by discussions in the little park nearby. There will be shows in the evening, as well as food and coffee onsite.

* We strongly suggest you leave your phones, cameras, and all other technological snitches far away from the event.* The Fair will take place outside and regardless of weather conditions–come dressed appropriately.

* Details on the discussions topics and schedule to come.

LONG LIVE ANARCHY!

On Sunday, 14/4, responding to the call of the International Red Aid on an international day of action in solidarity with the arrested comrade D.Klette and comrades E.Staub and B.Garweg, who are persecuted as members of the RAF, we held a solidarity gathering outside the German embassy. The gathering lasted about an hour, with the comrades that participated shouting slogans. The banner was opened on Loukianou Street and leaflets were distributed.

Greece: 15 Athens Economic Blockade for Palestine, Statement for April 15th

Monday April 15th

We are an initiative of people in Solidarity with the Palestinian Resistance and we denounce the genocide of the Palestinian people perpetrated by the colonial state of Israel.

The tactics of the Israeli army are among the most horrific and inhumane ever seen- the indiscriminate air strikes, the consistant humiliation and starvation,the bombardment of hospitals and camps -, and they confirm with certainty the historic will of the apartheid regime of Israel to annihilate Palestine and the Palestinian people, which began with the “Catastrophe”/”Naqba” in 1948 and led to the displacement of 7.6 million Palestinians, the majority of Palestinian society.

As we enter the seventh month of horrific attacks by the Zionist Occupation Military Forces throughout Gaza and other Palestinian territories, which have claimed over 35 000 victims, including over 13 000 children, the silence and complicity of most Western governments, supposed guardians of human rights, is intolerable.

Solidarity Means Attack

Attack on West Side REMAX Offices ( Olympia,USA )

On the night of March 15th under the cover of darkness and the loving gaze of the moon and stars, a group of anarchists gathered to attack one of the many manifestations of our enemies – police, property, genocide and apartheid states. We discussed various possible targets – settling on the west side offices for REMAX at 211 Kenyon St – talked dispersal routes and other such things, shared party favors, donned the black masks and headed off.

We walked confidently and quietly to the target, foraging for rocks on the way – though still we found our selves wishing we had even more rocks to spare. Upon arrival to the target we split into two groups to get the front and back of the building and let loose with a barrage of rocks and hammers. The beautiful sound of spray paint and shattering glass filled the air for about 30 seconds before we gathered up everyone and ran off giggling into the night. As of the time of writing there were no arrests.

Call to Action and Propaganda 15 Years After the Death of Anarchist Comrade Mauricio Morales

April 12, 2024 / informativoanarquista

“Before sleeping I embrace chaos as the idea that liberates my body and my mind because when all is said and done it makes me feel alive.

I don’t want to search for the grail that emanates freedom in future societies.

My fingers search for the bloody flight of destruction of the chains of rhythmic fire, of the closeby fire of power and of its bosses.

And when sleeping my actions move towards tomorrow when waking up, I’ll break with routine and in individual action with my chest as a stone swollen by destruction of this and any society.

Do me a favour: make sure that anarchy lives”.

– Punki Mauri

At dawn of May 22, 2009, anarchist comrade Mauricio Morales, Punki Mauri, found death through the unanticipated detonation of the explosive artifact that he intended to place at the Police School in Matta, Santiago.

After 16 Years of Prison: Words of Marcelo Villarroel -Chile

After 16 Years of Prison: Words of Marcelo Villarroel

informativoanarquista

This past March 15 marked 16 years of uninterupted prison, since I was detained in San Martin de los Andes, Neuquén province, territory occupied by the argentine state, while fleeing a search and arrest warrant from the chilean state.

The cases that encouraged that moment of clandestinity and which were spread profusely at the time have already been fulfilled:

I was sentenced to 14 years for two bank robberies. This date was met December 16 of last year, counted from December 16, 2009, the moment I was extradited from argentinian territory to be judged in chile.

Currently I still have 46 more years of sentences for cases emanating from pinochet’s military court in the early 90s framed in the urban guerrilla practices of my old militancy in the armed group Mapu-Lautaro which has been extinct for more than 3 decades.

Italy: Anarchists comrades Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino sentenced to 23 and 17 years in prison

Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino sentenced to 23 and 17 years in prison

From: No 41 bis- international mobilisation

“The sentences of 23 years and 17 years and 9 months of imprisonment to the anarchists Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino are final. The Court of Cassation confirms the sentence bis of the Court of Appeal of Turin. The requests of the defense and of the prosecution of Turin were rejected, and they insisted to the end on obtaining life imprisonment. Rage and love for our comrades! With the practices of which they are accused! Alfredo out since 41 bis!”

Thus communicated the comrades from Italy the final sentences imposed on Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino in what was the trial of the Scripta Manent case, which sought to blame both comrades for “political massacre”, based on the action against the Carabinieri school of Fossano.

AnarSec: Tech Guides for Anarchists

AnarSec is a new resource designed to help anarchists navigate the hostile terrain of technology — defensive guides for digital security and anonymity, as well as offensive guides for hacking. All guides are available in booklet format for printing and will be kept up to date.

As anarchists, we must defend ourselves against police and intelligence agencies that conduct targeted digital surveillance for the purposes of incrimination and network mapping. With the defensive series, our goal is to obscure the State’s visibility into our lives and projects. Our recommendations are intended for all anarchists, and they are accompanied by guides to put the advice into practice.

With the upcoming offensive series, we hope to contribute to the practice of hacking the State and capital. Astute readers may notice that the art featured on our homepage and booklets is taken from communiqués detailing how anarchists robbed a bank (Phineas Fisher) and destroyed police servers (AntiSec) using only a keyboard.

The defensive series currently includes:

Tails

Qubes OS

Phones

Italy: ‘The carousel of repression’ – by Anarchist comrade Anna Beniamino

THE CAROUSEL OF REPRESSION

Almost eight years after the arrests for Scripta Manent, for the second time the Court of Cassation, on 24th April 2024, will pronounce judgement on the crime of “political massacre”, pursuant to art. 285 c.p., against Alfredo and myself, the last remaining fragment pending in the process (i), after a whirlwind of delays, recalculations, and repressive-jurisprudential manipulations (ii).

Although the repetition of error numbs the horror, and we are living in times of multiple horrors flaunted and total anaesthetisations, I believe there are still some words to be said about the ongoing annihilation attempt, about reactions, successful and attempted. Not so much because I believe this may be useful for our personal fates, but out of a kind of stubborn “romanticism” that considers silence and resignation always and even more lethal in a political process.
