STRENGTH TO COMRADE ANDREA F.
SOLIDARITY IS THE PEOPLE’S WEAPON

from the Patras Solidarity Assembly

On Monday, April 22, the anti-terrorists raided the house of comrade Andrea F. in Patras, kidnapped him and took him to Athens. He is facing serious charges under the Terrorism Act. Once again the anti-terrorist scenarios are proclaimed as indisputable truth, regardless of whether they collapse like a house of cards dozens of times in the courts. In any case, the prosecuting authorities are not interested in anything other than gaining impressions and producing work to the order of the respective government, serving political expediencies, especially in view of the European elections. The entrenchment of a sense of security translates into brute force and repression, control and discipline, and police-military management of social issues.

“TOTAL LIBERATION”

The “total liberation” open library is an experimental project of solidarity and collective reading. The basic vision of the library is to spread the ideas of total liberation through the prism of antispeciesism, to create a pole of attraction, transmission and intersection of the ideas of the liberation of animals and the earth in the context of the anarchist struggle. At this stage, for some time, it will have a mobile format with some titles from the catalogue available for some hours at a predetermined point at a given time.

GATHERING – RESPONSE TO THE PROSECUTIONS OF ANTIFASCISTS FOR THE BUDAPEST CASE (Athens,Greece)

GATHERING IN DEFENCE OF MILITANT ANTIFASCISM – Friday May 24, 19:00 embassy of Hungary, Vasileos Konstantinou 38, Athens

Every year since 1997, on the 11th of February, a large number of far-right and neo-Nazi groups flock to Budapest for public events, commemorating the attempted escape of the besieged Nazi SS and Wermacht troops and their local collaborators from Budapest in 1945, shortly before the liberation of the city from the Red Army forces. This day is a reference point and meeting point for the European far right and takes place with the full tolerance of the Hungarian state, as this date is presented as a day of historical remembrance by the apologists and nostalgists of the Nazis.

On 11 February 2023, the Hungarian police made 6 arrests, with the Italian comrade Ilaria and the German comrade Tobias being in Hungarian prisons since then, accused of attacking Neo-Nazis during public far-right events in Budapest on the occasion of the so-called Memorial Day. In particular, Ilaria is accused of participating in two attacks against Nazis, with the aggravating circumstance of “endangering a victim’s life”, while also being accused of knowing, without herself being involved, of the existence of an international criminal association that organized the attacks in questions. While our German comrade Tobias along with another German comrade are being accused of participation in a criminal organization.

Athens,Greece: Attack on the MAT (riot cops) in Exarcheia square for Mauricio Morales present!

Shortly after midnight on Saturday 18/5, we carried out a coordinated attack on the MAT protecting the metro construction site in Exarchia square. We attacked them simultaneously from three different streets, Themistokleous, Solomou and Metaxas. The cops, once again, were running in panic trying to get away from the fires.

This action came amid a time when the sheet metal of the construction site is expanding, where the government is preparing the ground for new more repressive measures, both in the universities and more widely in the neighborhoods, taking advantage as usual of the summer season when the possibilities for organized and mass resistance are reduced. So this is our response to remind them that, as always, they will find us in front of them.

15 years after the death of Mauricio Morales we send a signal of fire and complicity from Greece to Chile, honoring the international cooperation that existed between these two lands not many years ago. Let the slogan “spark in Santiago, fire in Athens” become a reality again.

15 years ago, today and tomorrow Mauricio Morales presente!

Now you’ll probably multiply into thousands and spread yourself over all the land. You’ll watch over us in combat, and light our paths. We´ll do the rest. Because the same flame that was inside you is the flame that lives inside all of us. Because even though they try to extinguish it, it will be born again and again…. till it has destroyed the last outpost of this prison society.
See you soon—at the end of the path.

Act for freedom now!

Athens, Greece: Claiming responsibility for attacks on Israeli targets

Athens: Claiming responsibility for attacks on Israeli targets.

by international women, solidarity-es in the struggle of the Palestinians

On the evening of April 15th we decided to show our solidarity in some way with the Palestinian people who are experiencing Israel’s genocidal violence. We therefore attacked a hotel with Israeli interests with paint while writing slogans at the met (Preservable apartment building of modern interwar architecture)  at 25 Metsovou Street, thus attacking Israeli capital which is also contributing to the gentrification of the Exarcheia neighbourhood. At the same time we attacked the starbucks in Glyfada with hammers and spraypaint while a fire extinguisher was opened in the kitchen resulting in the suspension of the store. Starbucks was targeted because of their support (financial and moral) to the IDF.

Surveillance Countermeasures

From No Trace Project

In the past decades, the surveillance capabilities of State actors have greatly diversified, thanks in part to new technological developments such as video surveillance, mobile phones and DNA sampling. Despite this, physical surveillance — the direct observation of people or activities for the purpose of gathering information — is still widely used by State actors, in particular in cases where other surveillance techniques are not effective. Our Threat Library references examples of the use of physical surveillance against anarchists and other rebels.

Surveillance Countermeasures is a 2019 book on physical surveillance and the mitigations one can take to protect against it, written by former U.S. spy Aden C. Magee. It extensively covers topics such as the principles and tactics of surveillance operations, surveillance detection, and anti-surveillance.

We believe this book can be an essential read for anarchists and other rebels at risk of physical surveillance by law enforcement or intelligence agencies.

Annual Chaotic-Anarchist Gathering #2 May 30 – June 3, 2024 Hambacher Forest North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

We want anarchy. We want freedom and autonomy for everyone, without domination. We want the overthrow of the existing order. We want social revolution.

This hasn’t changed since the last ACAT gathering. Among other topics, the following was discussed last year: Whether intermediary/specific struggles are still a valid proposal under current conditions and/or if we would need them now more than ever; faced with dystopian conditions, in what way we can intervene in social struggles (and whether we want to); the recuperation of anti-authoritarian struggles by authoritarians (based on the experience of the Appelist takeover on the ZAD in Nantes, France); the digital enclosure and its discontents (based on the case of the comrade Boris in France and the struggle there against the global expansion of the digital open-air prison); the history of the insurrectionary method; war; and patriarchy in its techno-industrial form.
