A Communique on Sabotaging Zionist Infrastructure: Shutting Down Friends of the IDF -Water Main Cemented

For Palestine.

To rebels everywhere.

With deepest love and ancestral rage,

We gathered with heavy hearts and humble hands holding a promise for a world safer from white supremacist, settler-colonial violence. Those who declare war on original peoples and pillage sacred life and land will face retribution. There has been a great fire building, may it overflow and take all enemies of life with it. May it create fertile grounds for victory against violent occupiers.

We took it upon ourselves to make sure these fascists could not gather. Rather than the constant reactivity and rigidness of mass protest spectacles, we wanted to hit them where it fucking hurts.

On November 5th, the Zionist fascist scum, “Friends of the IDF,” who represent the interests of wealthy American capitalists in their direct support of the settler colonial state of Israel and its continued campaign of genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people, attempted to hold a fundraiser gala at Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos, California.

Czech Republic : Alfredo M. Bonanno zemřel, ať žije anarchie! (Alfredo M. Bonanno is dead, long live anarchy!)

Alfredo M. Bonanno zemřel, ať žije anarchie!
7thDec. × ’23

Dne 6. prosince 2023, ve věku 86 let, zemřel dlouholetý anarchista Alfredo Maria Bonanno. Prožil neuvěřitelný život a ještě před 14 lety, ve svých 72 letech, čelil obvinění z vyloupení banky. Mimo jiné napsal knihu “Ozbrojená radost“, kterou soudce nařídil zakázat a spálit všechny její výtisky. Za vydání knihy byl uvězněn. Alfredo byl jedním z nejlepších autorů povstalecké tendence a jedním z nejpozoruhodnějších anarchistů 20. a 21. století, pokud jde o jasnost jeho myšlenek a teoretický vliv. Nechť je jeho život inspirací pro nás všechny.

Upřímnou soustrast jeho parnerce Annalise a synovi Alfredovi. Člověk, kterého jste ztratili, pro Vás jistě znamená ještě víc než pro nás všechny v anarchistické galaxii, kteří jsme četli jeho spisy a byli jimi ovlivněni.

Soudruhu, odpočívej v síle. Byl jsi skutečný. Ať žije boj za sociální revoluci. Ať žije anarchie

Anarchist comrade Alfredo M. Bonanno has died on 6th December at the age of 86

You will always be alive with us through our action and our lives. “ACTION REPLACES TEARS”

Alfredo Maria Bonanno, born in 1937 in Catania, Sicily, is one of the most prolific contemporary anarchists, responsible for Anarchismo editions and other publishing ventures. In 1977 he was sentenced to 18 months in prison for his book La Gioia Armata (Armed Joy). This book had been published at a historical moment when the Italian revolutionary movement was openly going on the offensive, while similar conditions existed in other European countries (Germany, Spain, England, Greece, Chile and more) and the question of violence was on the daily agenda. His contribution lies in a celebration of the pervasive class violence that liberates and satisfies the individual, but at the same time he sounds the alarm about the emergence of the armed party, which reduces the class conflict to a militaristic dimension, imposing the mediation of a small minority of armed men on the complexity of tens of thousands of people struggling by all means against the current reorganization of Capital, which at that moment seemed weak.

In the spirit of the book, all authentic liberating and destructive action comes from a logic of satisfaction in the struggle, not a self-sacrificing duty in accordance with the dictates of a micro-bureaucracy. The Italian Supreme Court ordered the destruction of the copies of the book that were in circulation, and sent a circular to public libraries to dispose of any copies they might have had.

Several librarians objected to this Nazi-inspired tactic. Its circulation was generally banned, and copies were confiscated from the homes of anarchist militants in the context of police raids on houses.

Shortly afterwards, the author was accused of being an “instigator” of the Azione Rivoluzionaria, an armed organisation of 1976-79, which operated on the basis of “affinity groups” throughout central Italy, mainly against newspapers and party offices, and similar “manipulative mechanisms of consensus-building”. In 1979 the organisation was practically dismantled with the arrest of 86 people and the arrest of Salvatore Cinieri and Gianfranco Faina. The first went on to die in prison in a scuffle with criminal inmates when he defended a prisoner suspected of submitting an escape plan, while the second was released to die of lung cancer after being diagnosed with a tumour while in custody.

Ciao, Alfredo

Μercoledì scorso è morto, a 86 anni, Alfredo Bonanno.

Per oltre un cinquantennio, Alfredo ha dato un contributo importantissimo all’anarchismo rivoluzionario, come editore, come teorico, come uomo d’azione, come sperimentatore di metodi organizzativi basati sull’affinità e sull’informalità. Quello che lo differenziava radicalmente da qualsiasi intellettuale non era solo il suo rifiuto di ogni carriera accademica e di ogni rappresentazione mediatica, ma il fatto che analizzare lo Stato e il capitalismo non serviva per lui ad andare a dormire con le idee più chiare, bensì a trarne delle precise conseguenze – etiche, pratiche, organizzative – nella vita quotidiana.

Vivere è un problema qualitativo. Se non lo si vede in questa prospettiva, che senso ha la vita? (Alfredo M. Bonanno)It/Es

Vivere è un problema qualitativo. Se non lo si vede in questa prospettiva, che senso ha la vita? (Alfredo M. Bonanno)

Il compagno anarchico Alfredo M. Bonanno è morto a Trieste il 6 dicembre 2023, a 86 anni.

Introduzione a Oltrepassamento e superamento

Il problema della qualità non è una questione filosofica, appartiene alla vita e da questa, e dalla ridda selvaggia di urticanti ambasce che ne vengono fuori, trova poi sistemazione e acquietamento nella riflessione.

Vivere è quindi un problema qualitativo. Se non lo si vede in questa prospettiva, che senso ha la vita? Sarebbe una morte pagata a rate, un avvicinamento a qualcosa considerata futura che invece è di già accaduta, quasi senza destare sensazione alcuna. Chi resta immerso nella quotidianità del quantitativo, superando, di volta in volta, i vari problemi che lo fanno sembrare vivo, è un fantasma senza saperlo.

Greece: December 6 – We don’t forget, we don’t forgive

15 years have passed since the night of December 6, 2008 when the murderous cop Korkoneas killed the anarchist student Alexandros Grigoropoulos with his colleague Saraliotis watching.

15 years since the night that shocked the whole society and led to a huge social uprising that exploded like a bomb across the country and lasted for months.

15 years since night-time stopped. The promises we made then remain open. They show us all that has been lost and all that needs to be done now.

15 years and the murders have not stopped, just as the beatings, arrests, abuse and torture have not stopped. The State has continuity. Before and after December 6. That is why we continue to be in the streets.

We don’t forget, we don’t forgive.

Athens, Greece: Fire to the ATTIKO METRO machinery! By Anarchists

Athens,Fire to the ATTIKO METRO machinery! (excerpt)

In the early hours of November 17th, we attacked and set fire to 3 ATTIKO METRO machines at the construction site of line 4 in the area of Kaisariani at the junction of Ethnikis Antistaseos and Filolaou streets.

Our action is the conceivable sequel of the slogan that we shouted so many times together with thousands of other demonstrators at the gatherings and demonstrations against the destruction of Exarchia square by the cooperation of the state-contractors-Attiko Metro-municipal authority. Mobilizations that have intensified recently, after the invasion of the machinery in the square with the aim of clearing the area of trees, bushes, etc.

Finally, we chose our incendiary attack to take place at a time and day (early morning on November 17, 2023) when, according to media reports, 5000 thousand policemen were patrolling the streets of Athens ahead of the mobilizations for the 50th anniversary of the Polytechnic uprising. Our arson attack took place within breathing distance between the Kaisariani police station and the headquarters of the YMET (special units of the Greek Police)in Oulof Palme avenue, proving that the city belongs to those who wish to destroy order and not to those who are paid to enforce it. Now and always.

DEVELOPMENT SABOTAGE, FIRE TO THEIR PROJECTS!
