Tire Fire for Palestine.

In the night of the 29th of April anarchists started a tire fire on the train tracks in St-Henri. The action was done to disrupt train traffic momentarily in solidarity with Palestine and the anti-capitalist 1st of May. We hope this action inspires others to disrupt the economy and the flow of capital across the world.

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!

Greece: Thanos Chatzianggelou – On the misery of repression towards my family circle

We once declared that the first thing to die in war is the truth. Today, along with the truth, morality accompanies death. In war, as painful as it is to realize the necessity of your existence, there are rules. Those rules are once again being broken by my pack of persecutors.

I spent almost two and a half years as a prisoner in their cells of democracy. In hooded interrogation offices, in the corridors and halls of the inquisition, in cages and concrete tombs. And in all these years not a single moment has passed from my mind to bargain my political identity with what it carries as a legacy on it. Today I am back on the streets with a set of restrictions but my conscience is clear for what I have done.

REBELION Pubicacion Anaquista No 19 (Argentina)

pdfREBELION NO. 19

BY WAY OF AN EDITORIAL

Once again we find ourselves around the campfire, in another rebellion. Time passes, but reality makes us feel that we are as if we were stopped in time; governments are still here and there, as are capitalism, religions, patriarchal culture, extractivism and individual and social authority. Sometimes it’s like running on a treadmill, we run, we sweat, we have the sensation of moving forward, but we don’t do it. That does not take away our desire and will to keep fighting, to get up and keep trying to break the treadmill, without giving up. Yes, like those stubborn and maladjusted anarchists, from all sides and all times. Comrades of years or new ones that join with contributions to this rebellion, that never tried to serve as a guru, or guide, or “example of perfect life” of anyone, without impositions perfect life” of anyone, without impositions or demands. Rather, it is only to expose our ideas (always debatable), reflections, experiences, feelings and individual or collective sensations; it is a humble contribution to the great flame, which gives warmth and strength to all of us comrades around the world, and that, at this very moment, many of them are prisoners, fugitives, under surveillance, many are persecuted; but, even so, they continue conspiring, propagating and agitating the social revolution against all authority, in all corners of the planet.

In this region another show of “the Democratic elections 2023”, another change of label but not of content. Now a new character leads this town: “Miky Vanilla” (Milei). A super fascist as president. Again, the sad meme, became reality. The ultra right wing, which hypocritically, put itself as a name: “Partido La Libertad Avanza”. And what they want the least, is the freedom of anyone. They even call themselves: Anarcho-capitalists. Another unreal contradiction, like the name of their Party. Anarchy and capitalism are polar opposites. Like calling themselves anarcho-government or anarcho-authoritarian.

Lacroisille/Appelle (Tarn), France: The series of attacks against the A69 continues

The series of attacks against the A69 continues

When the world of concrete catches fire again and again

IAATA / Saturday May 25, 2024

On the night of May 23 to 24, a new bonfire sparkled on this grey horizon
The IPCC aims to show its presence with the destruction of construction equipment at the French national level in order to counter the lack of ecological justice.

The concessionaires and project managers feel their project threatened, whether legally, from public opinion or from citizen opposition. They are trying to impose it by force so as not to lose a crumb of the juicy profits that land-grabbing promises them.

June 11th International Day of Solidarity with Marius Mason & All Long-Term Anarchist Prisoners

June 11, 2024: No Separate Worlds

We once again approach June 11th, a day of remembrance and active solidarity, in a world of multiple crises and struggles for liberation. All of these are interconnected; there are no separate worlds. Across borders, languages, contexts, and identities, both catastrophes and victories of spirit and defiance reverberate around the globe. One environment is not untouched by another. The personal is not separate from the political. The positive project is not separate from that of destruction. Prison is not separate from the “free world.” Means are not separate from ends. Bridging these divides is a shared curiosity and commitment; bridging these divides is solidarity.

This is not to flatten or oversimplify diversity and differences in circumstance, intensity, and consequence. Rather, that these different pieces are held together like organs of the body held by connective tissue. So we consider: how do we strengthen this connective tissue? How do we remain strong, yet supple and flexible? Bridges, connection, must also be built through time, especially in a world that moves too fast, from one crisis to the next. June 11th aspires to be one of these bridges: to build solidarity across borders, between movements, and among generations. Remembering and supporting long-term prisoners, as well as carrying on shared struggles, are two ways to strengthen this connective tissue. A stronger connective tissue will, in turn, bolster us against further repression.

We are watching you: Leonardo Bristol, UK

Actforfree Receive anonymous emaiL

Bristol is a city which hides its dark past and present behind a veneer of subversive culture and liberalism.

The history of exploitation and oppression that the cities wealth was
built upon is thriving today in the area of Filton. Home to the
Ministry of Defence and many arms companies, this is a part of the city that tries to stay hidden. Elbit have been the target of many actions, and have finally had their Bristol lease terminated when it is next due for renewal (to be replaced with another monstrosity we are sure).

We wanted to higlight the role of another company: Leonardo. Leonardo is one of the world’s largest arms manufacturers, making arms sales of $11.2 billion in 2021.

$hile: ‘Nothing is Over, Everything Continues’ Text in memory of Mauri 2024 from Biblioteca Antiautoritaria Sacco y Vanzetti

Nothing is Over, Everything Continues

In these days it will be 15 years since the physical departure of comrade Mauricio Morales, the Punky Mauri… a thousand sensations are coming to the surface. May 22, 2009 seems like yesterday.

Facts, situations, feelings always alive, which remain burned in the memory, because the power with which they emerged was of such a magnitude, that not even the passing of the years can appease that force.

The news of your death, the hunt unleashed; the power, its defenders and false critics spewing threats, mockery and defamation. The pain of your depature, the complicity between comrades, the love, the solidarity, the combat and non-resignation.

[Rigaer94] Wir haben eine Verabredung | Conspiracy to Overthrow the Existent

When we conspire
Conspire to hold
hold hold hold
hold on hold out and hold together
and jump when we feel it right
let our fire set us ablaze so everyone can see our spark

conspire to remember the feeling of moss under our feet
the feeling of sun on our skin
the smell of roots and melting asphalt
the burn in legs and lungs after a last second sprint
to feel each others‘ passion and motivation
to be compassionate with ourselves
conspire to guide our desires to their truest targets
When we conspire our fires so bright

Today we live a cycle of devastation and wars, of ecocide, of intensifying technological and social control. Day by day, we watch companies devour misery and death, supported by state militaries. Defense budgets soar as the parliaments of western countries support genocides, as they finance conflict in the global south to maintain their control over living beings and their environments, which they have categorised as resources. We watch companies enrich themselves through exploitation of the living world to continue the madness of technological progress and the farce of the ecological transition.

Anarchist Sabotage of Military Recruiter Cars – Bloomington, IN (USA)

Anarchist Sabotage of Military Recruiter Cars – Bloomington, IN
2024/05

14 tires slashed on 7 military recruiter cars near the mall. 14 more tires at a nearby security firm. Against the military machine. Against every nation-state. Against protectors of private property.

Those that seek to maintain the peace in this time of upheaval are enemies of freedom. Those that carry out the ongoing death march are our top targets.

Nighty action against Damen (Amsterdam, Netherlands )

Last night we paintbommed the Damen Repair Shipyard in Amsterdam. Damen is one of the biggest arms companies of the Netherlands that is responsible for death and destruction. The company produces military and border patrol vessels that are exported to produce violence all over the world. In this way, it is a key player in the ever more present militarisation of society and the building up of walls of Fortress Europe.

Infamous clients of Damen include the Libyan and Turkish coast guard, known for their violence against people on the move. In 2013, Damen exported border patrol boats to the Libyan Coast Guard, who attack refugee boats, drag them back to Libyan shores and imprison migrants in detention centres where they are tortured, murdered and enslaved. It was later revealed that the Damen vessels, which had machine guns installed on them, were used to attack refugee boats and that in one incident at least twenty people died. Likewise, the Turkish Coast Guard is known to attack boats with refugees or drag them back to Turkish shores. And as many European countries bought vessels of Damen for their border guards, their ships are often used in Frontex missions to patrol the external borders of Europe.
