Text of the anarchist Fotis Tziotzis about his vindictive detention in the garbage dump of Grevena prison (Thessaloniki,Greece)

Text of the anarchist Fotis Tziotzis about his vindictive detention in the garbage dump of Grevena prison.

I think that after 5 months of conscious silence, it’s time to say a few words about the general regime of detention that the repression mechanisms are building against me. The issues of Greek prisons are more or less known and not only are there no attempts to solve them, but they are constantly increasing. Prisoners suffer daily from the obvious indifference of the State, which is now clearly being supplemented by vindictiveness towards us.

Speaking about my own journey through prisons, about the vindictiveness and obsession with my person, I do not speak in terms of a victim, I do not speak with any predilection for regret or repentance. I speak as a recalcitrant prisoner, who for so many years does not give up, does not back down, is not touched by their tricks – in simple words, I do not even see them. For all these reasons, 4 months ago, they vengefully shuffled me from Domokos prison to the garbage dump of Grevena  prison (a condition that is beginning to become a norm for other prisoners as well), as a first punitive move against the events surrounding the attack with a trapped parcel on the scumbag-president of appeals Thess/niki Anastasia Anthopoulou.

Forest of Dean, UK: Sabotage attack upon hunting towers in solidarity with anarchist comrade Toby Shone & the pine martins

Sabotage attack upon hunting towers in solidarity with anarchist comrade Toby Shone & the pine martins

7th October 2024

We made a choice to saw into 2 hunting towers in Staunton and the other NR St. Briavels, both in the Forest of Dean. This simple action was taken with the thoughts in our minds of pine martins in Germany and Switzerland that chew into brake cables whilst keeping warm and snuggled up to cooling down engines and also not forgetting the martins in the UK that were pretty much wiped out for their taste in game bird, their eggs and caged poultry, but now some 60 pairs have been released back into the wilds of the Forest of Dean.

So this bring us to welcome Toby Shone who’s to be released from HMP Garth NR Manchester early next month (9th Nov) who before his imprisonment enjoyed over a decade of his life in this beautiful countryside. Good luck with your future Toby!

Eco-Anarchists – The Pine Martins Cell

Ps These towers and others were attacked previously in the past, but metal straps were attached to protect them since the last attack. These straps were cut all in the day time, while the chair and hunting clothes we found there have been put to better use

NEWS UPDATES IN SOLIDARITY WITH ANARCHIST TOBY SHONE IN UK 2021-22-23-24

Police news on the investigation into sabotage against the Olympics (France)

[Everyone knows that the major international news agencies are linked to states, and in particular to their intelligence services. And Reuters, founded in London in 1851 and once again one of the giants of the market since its takeover by the Canadian group Thomson in 2007, is no exception to the rule. With this in mind, yesterday it released a long “exclusive” dispatch that lifts a small corner of the veil on the investigation into the sabotage of the opening of the Paris Olympic Games. Entitled “Exclusive: France seeks FBI help in probe of high-speed train sabotage hours before Olympics”, we thought this Reuters document drawn from North American sources might be of interest to curious readers.]

PARIS, Aug 7 (Reuters) – Police in France investigating the sabotage of high-speed rail lines hours before the Paris Olympics’ Opening Ceremony have asked the U.S. FBI for help, two sources with direct knowledge of the French inquiry said.

Suspected arson at Atlanta construction site of Brent Scarborough and Company, Inc. (USA)

Law enforcement agencies are investigating a suspected arson in Atlanta early Wednesday at a construction site of a company previously targeted in similar incidents over its role in the building of the police and fire training facility that has faced a long-running protest and opposition movement.

It happened at a cleared lot on Memorial Drive next to new apartments as part of what appears to be a construction project.

Wednesday’s suspected arson follows on several other incidents that have targeted construction sites over connections to the building of the public safety training center.

Saint-Amand-sur-Ornain (Meuse) France : Railroad sabotage – TRAIN TO NOWHERE

 Railroad sabotage – TRAIN TO NOWHERE

(Indymedia Lille 9th of August)

Over the summer, we bent a rail with a hydraulic bottle jack on the old railroad line between Nançois-Tronville and Gondrecourt-le-Château. We chose to operate precisely between Tréveray and Saint-Amand-sur-Ornain, not far from the field where the Burelesques festival of resistance to Cigéo will be held from August 16 to 18.

In a few years’ time, the SNCF plans to put these rails back into service to transport the nuclear waste that the French government would like to bury at Bure. Public consultations were held in 2022 on this rail project, and SNCF subcontractors have since begun measuring the route. This would involve 36 km of rehabilitated former railroad line, running right through the middle of villages (perhaps foreshadowing a future stage of expropriations in a few years’ time?). ANDRA also envisions the convoy of six 100-meter-long radioactive trains at 40 km/h per month for 100 years.

(Chile) Vegan/Anti-authoritarian Comrade Killed During Procession in Commemoration of the Coup D’etat

 Vegan/Anti-authoritarian Comrade Killed During Procession in Commemoration of the Coup D’etat

This Sunday, 9/8, like every year, there was a procession to the General Cemetery to commemorate the anniversary of the 1973 Coup D’etat. In this context, on the intersection of Recoleta Avenue and Santos Dumont, a subject appeared from a police picket line and began to attack masked comrades with a knife. He wounded three and unfortunately one of them died a few hours later.

Athens,Greece: DEMONSTRATION FOR THE MURDER BY THE STATE OF Mohamed Kamran Asik and Mia Xarizoul SATURDAY 12 OCTOBER, VICTORIA SQUARE 14.30

On 21/9, the Pakistani worker Mohamed Kamran Asik is tortured and murdered in the police station of Agios Panteleimonas by the uniformed murderers who staff one of the most notorious, sweat-soaked and blood-soaked hellhouses in Athens. Mohammed’s murder is the result of the repressive strategy of the state against the exploited and the oppressed, especially the most undervalued part of the multicultural working class. A strategy that remains regardless of the government while currently being sharpened by New Democracy party. The brutality revealed through the photos made public of Mohammed’s abused body is not a new but a systematic practice. In a political juncture when capitalism has nothing to offer or promise, when more and more people are to be devalued, marginalized and crippled, Mohammed’s abused body is a trophy in the hands of cops and fascists.

In the city center, the area of Agios Panteleimonas is perhaps the clearest illustration over time of the organic confluence of the fascist assault storm troopers, the mafia, the police and the “residents’ committees” which, as communicating vessels, attempted to tear down a multicultural neighborhood with radical roots and antifascist reference points. The multicultural proletariat is condemned to survive on starvation wages and in conditions of undeclared work, on the streets of drug addicts, in the concentration camps for immigrants and refugees, in the prisons and detention centers of the police stations, in the cardboard boxes of the homeless, in the psychiatric hospitals. It was in this system that Mohammed was murdered. In the system of capitalist inequalities, poverty, war and police violence.

Hostages of the Gun: On Militancy and Militarism

From North Shore

This text is based on a talk given at the 2024 Hamilton Anarchist Bookfair. It is available as a printable zine.

Political violence is a delicate topic—and not only because of how easy it is to find ourselves getting criminalized for conversations among comrades about violence.

Violence is something to take very seriously, since how we choose to use or respond to it shapes our struggles and ourselves. I do believe violence changes us, for better or for worse. We can’t choose to escape the violence of capitalism, and likewise the violence of colonization, racism, and patriarchy is inescapable for many. We can, however, choose how to use violence in our struggles against those forces.

Mettmann (Germany): sabotage of rail traffic

[The claim for this fire on railway signal cables in Mettmann, in the district of Düsseldorf (North Rhine-Westphalia), was written in rhyme, which we have not attempted to render. Incidentally, this same group, the “Commando Angry Birds”, had already carried out several sabotages against rail traffic: one in Düsseldorf in January 2024, and five others in Düsseldorf, claimed in May 2023

[Switch off] Communiqué no. 3 – Rail sabotage

Silence falls over the forest, the tawny owl raises its voice,
/ a train whirrs from left to right, making him lose his senses completely.

“What’s all this noise doing here at night? You’ve gone crazy!” / Let’s forgive the owl this language, it’s affecting him personally…

Saïx (Tarn): arson sabotage on the A69 construction site (France)

A69 freeway: a structure destroyed by fire last night in Saïx next to the ZAD, firefighters and gendarmes pelted with stones
La Dépêche/France Bleu, August 23, 2024 (extract)

An impressive fire destroyed a structure on the A69 freeway construction site in Saïx (Tarn), between Castres and Toulouse, on Thursday night, in the Parc du Dicosa, opposite the “cal’arbre” ZAD. At around 1:30 a.m., several groups of hooded individuals threw stones at the area, forcing the security guards to take cover. According to our information, a third group set fire to the structure. The Atosca dealership reports the use of several Molotov cocktails.

In any case, this massive formwork, a wood and metal structure, burst into flames. The fire department and gendarmes intervened, but were met with a barrage of stones. Law enforcement officials say there were “around thirty individuals, probably from the neighboring ZAD”. Operations to extinguish the fire were thus delayed, and the blaze, which was nearly under control by 6:30 a.m., was still in progress at 8:30 a.m. on Friday, with firefighters even having to return to the site.
