(Wallmapu) Mapuche political prisoners from Temuco show solidarity with anarchist and subversive prisoners August 22nd, 2023

(Excerpted from La Zarzamora)

Letter of solidarity from Wallmapu

To all those who struggle and to public opinion in general.
Throughout the history of humanity, the pueblos have risen up, fought, resisted against tyranny and oppression imposed in different ways and different contexts. This is how the capitalist system through the state and government as its faithful dogs do the impossible of stopping anyone who fights for their pueblo, increasing sentences, creating new laws to segregate and dismantle every bastion of struggle and resistance.

It should be noted that for all those committed to the struggle against the capitalist system, this only increases our ties of solidarity and support.

Revolutionary Prisoners News

Anarchist comrade Toby Shone abducted by armed cops and sent back to prison (UK)!

Toby Shone is an anarchist who was imprisoned in Wandsworth, Bristol and G4S Prison Parc for nearly two years accused of being the administrator of counter-information project 325.nostate.net. After the political prosecution failed and the cops had to drop the case 5 days before trial in October 2021, Toby received a sentence of 3 years 9 months for possession of psychedelic medicines. He was released on 28 December 2022 under heavy restrictions (license conditions), oversight by a multi-agency team (MAPPA) including the National Security Division (counter-terror) and forced to live in a filthy bail hostel in Gloucester for 9 months. He had just moved back into a flat in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire 9 days ago.

On the morning of 19 September 2023, he was driving to an appointment with his probation officer when he was pulled over and arrested by an armed police unit in-between the Forest of Dean and Gloucester. He was taken to HMP Bristol. He is awaiting more detailed information, but his legal team say that the allegations are that he breached two of his license conditions: being in possession of an [unauthorised] phone and attending a meeting in Bristol in August.

Toby is in great spirits as ever and requests letters and books.

Sabotage, Arsons Attacks

Dartford- Kent, UK : Traffic lights chopped in half by furious anti-ULEZ protesters.

A set of traffic lights has been found cut in two as a protest at the ULEZ area in London. The Ultra-Low Emission Zone ‘ULEZ’ was expanded from August 29 – meaning thousands more drivers face paying a daily £12.50 charge to drive in all London boroughs.

It follows a significant surge in acts of vandalism and sabotage against Ulez cameras in recent weeks,carried out by individuals who refer to themselves as “blade runners”.

The lights at a crossing on Crayford Way are seen spliced in half with electrical wires exposed. A red sticker on the post reads “ULEZ spy camera” with an arrow pointing upwards.

Tesla in flames -Switch Off – the system of destruction! (Frankfurt, Germany)

Tesla in flames

The International Motor Show (IAA) was held in Munich last week. At this summer show, all manner of multinationals were once again able to show off their gleaming, beautiful cars and congratulate themselves on their economic success in their air-conditioned conference rooms, limousines and exhibition halls.

At the same time, this summer has once again been full of fires. In Rhodes. In Portugal. In Maui (island of Hawaii). At the same time, many people’s homes were flooded. In Slovenia and Austria.
Many people’s lives were shattered. These deadly catastrophes have many causes, and the IAA is just one of them. We say Switch off the system of destruction!

So we torched a few new Tesla cars this evening in Frankfurt. In salute to the Munich protests. One of many attacks on the destructive automotive industry.

How The Wind Rustles And The Acorns Fall: A Few Days Of Freedom! by Thomas Meyer-Falk -Freiburg (Germany)

How The Wind Rustles And The Acorns Fall: A Few Days Of Freedom!

On 29.08.2023, after almost 27 years of imprisonment, I was released from the high-security area of Freiburg prison with two hours notice. How does a person feel in such a situation? I would like to report on this after the first 14 days.

On 29.08.2023: The release!

At 8 a.m. I was still sitting in the visiting area of the prison with the probation officer, who might be responsible for me in the future, and we puzzled over when and if a release would take place. At 2 p.m. the time had come – I was discharged and on my way to my new place to live.

I should have been overflowing with happiness, but my focus was on the speedy handling of the move and my first official visits. Already around 3 p.m. I was at the job center and then at the health insurance company. The evening became long, ended after midnight. I got to know people in the new living environment, talked to friends on the phone and immediately started texting. The world of the 21st century had integrated me in a short time: thanks to the local group of the Rote Hilfe e.V. from Freiburg, my smartphone and laptop were ready. It felt surreal to sit on the tram and talk on the phone – just hours before I had sat in a cell with a corded phone and was only allowed to call numbers approved by the prison, and the conversations would be monitored and recorded, as it was always said in an announcement text before calls.

A CALL TO WAR AGAINST THE PIPELINE (so-called virginia, United States)

A CALL TO WAR AGAINST THE PIPELINE

a fortnight ago, by the light of the full moon, a small group of friends set fire to a large excavator and a second small machine that were being used to build the mountain valley pipeline near teels creek.

we came prepared to burn up to six machines but unfortunately found only two at the site we chose. mvp has dozens or possibly hundreds of unattended machines on their construction sites on any given night; they are working at a breakneck pace in an attempt to complete the pipeline by the end of the year. a map of the pipeline showing incomplete water crossings can be found at tinyurl.com/mvprfuckers.

EN/IT/FR/ES: The state would like to silence revolutionary anarchist propaganda… we will neither be silenced nor stopped, Poster in solidarity with those investigated in the ”Scripta Scelera” operation (Italy)

solidarity poster scripta scelera english pdf (it can be printed as an A3 poster and as an A4 flyer).

The state would like to silence revolutionary anarchist propaganda…

Four house arrests with restrictions on visits, communication and the electronic bracelet, five obligations to stay in the municipality of residence combined with the obligation to return home at night from 7 pm to 7 am (including one subsequently aggravated to house arrest), in front of a request of ten arrests in prison; house searches and against the Circolo Culturale Anarchico “Gogliardo Fiaschi” and a commercial typography in Carrara (initially placed under seizure and released after a few days); huge seizures of papers and anarchist and revolutionary publications… This was the outcome of the repressive operation Scripta Scelera of August 8th against the internationalist anarchist fortnightly “Bezmotivny”. A “surgical raid” against a paper that for three years has published analyses and reflections aimed at the critical in-depth analysis of social reality, as well as claims and informative texts concerning actions of attack against structures and figures of the state and capital, responsible for all forms of exploitation and social oppression.

After the media hullabaloo and pompous declarations, if you allow, we also have something to say

We are not surprised by operations like this. Ever since anarchism emerged – not from the scholarly abstractions of some philosopher, but from revolutionary experiences, from the aspirations of the oppressed – anarchists’ papers have been hit. States have a long history of massacres, torture, assassinations, thousands of years of imprisonment against revolutionaries. We have the impetus of the dream and the risk of action, the determination of the will and the strength of necessity. And we continue on the path we have taken… Let inquisitors and illustrious magistrates get over it, beyond and against all censorship and repression, we will continue to rejoice every time this authoritarian social reality is attacked, its certainties shattered and troubled by the roar of revolt.

Hamburg (Germany): sabotaging the freight traffic of one of Europe’s largest ports

Hamburg : sabotaging the freight traffic of one of Europe’s largest ports.

[On the night of Thursday September 7 to Friday September 8, a triple sabotage attack was carried out on the rail freight traffic of one of Europe’s largest ports (Hamburg ranks just behind Rotterdam and Antwerp in terms of tonnage). At around 2.40 a.m., a cable fire was reported on the rail bypass north of the city, at Deelwisch Street. Then at around 3 a.m., a second fire was reported to the southeast on a railroad line in the Walter-Rudolphi-Weg area of Allermöhe, and finally a third at around 3.40 a.m. directly on the Hamburger Hafenbahn line at Heykenaukamp. In each case, signalling and communication cables located in shafts along the tracks were destroyed by the arson attacks.

As well as impacting container train traffic to and from the Port, the sabotage also affected long-distance passenger trains, particularly between Germany’s two largest cities (Hamburg and Berlin), where on Friday 11 trains were completely cancelled, 17 were partially cancelled and 21 were significantly delayed. Passenger rail traffic will not return to normal until Sunday, and needless to say, this sabotage has caused an outcry across the Rhine from the authorities, with Federal Transport Minister Volker Wissing, for example, castigating “climate extremists” (Klimaextremisten) who “have lowered their inhibition threshold yet again” with “such attacks, which constitute a form of terrorism”.
Below is a translation from the German of the communique issued on the same day (September 8) on de.indymedia].
