Germany: 2 BMWs Torched in Munich in Solidarity with Climate Activists Facing State Repression

2 BMWs Torched in Munich in Solidarity with Climate Activists Facing State Repression

[Switch Off The System] The Repression Against Climate Activists Will Not Go Unanswered

In recent months, the repression against climate activists in Germany has been permanently intensified. In the media coverage, the Last Generation (LG) in particular, gets the most attention. Investigations by the General Prosecutor’s Office in Munich for the formation of a so-called criminal organization, house searches, preventive detention for sit-in blockades, etc. Now the Berlin prosecutor’s office has announced that in the future, street blockaders will be tried with the so-called fast-track procedure. The Code of Criminal Procedure allows the judiciary to do this if the accusations against the accused are “suitable for immediate trial due to the simple facts or clear evidence”.

We understand the actions of the Munich and Berlin prosecutors as an attack on all activists of the climate justice movement, not only against the LG (Last Generation). Therefore, as a first reaction, during the night of July 9 to July 10, we targeted two BMW SUVs by means of an incendiary device and forced them into early retirement. This measure was suitable for immediate full retirement due to the simple facts of the case and the clear evidence (superfluous luxury cars and devastating CO2 emissions). We were inspired by the arson attacks of May 19 and July 4: E-vehicles of Stadtwerke München; a Tesla charging station + a Tesla + an electric mini.

Sabotage, Arsons Attacks

Rhine coalfield (Germany): coordinated sabotage of three coal mines

Hot sabotage of cable ducts: cutting off the juice to RWE!

From de.indymedia, July 13, 2023

On the night of July 5 to 6, we carried out simultaneous acts of sabotage using incendiary devices on three cable ducts in the Rhine lignite mining area. The attacked cables supply, among other things, the coal silos in the Hambach and Garzweiler open-cast mines, as well as the coal silo in the Fortuna mine. The aim of the action was to interrupt the coal supply to the Neurath and Niederaußem power stations and possibly force them to shut down. Unfortunately, according to press reports, we didn’t use enough accelerant to cause serious damage. We’ll have more next time! Nevertheless, this action shows that fossil fuel companies like RWE are vulnerable. And who knows, maybe we indirectly contributed to the Hambach mine transformer fire on July 11, which paralyzed the entire mine.

In particular, coal silos are an important infrastructure for supplying power plants. Most of the power cables between substations and coal silos are open-air and easily accessible. Attached below are maps where the routes of the cables that supply these coal silos are shown in red.

Munich (Germany): the TV truck didn’t make it through the night

Munich : the TV truck didn’t make it through the night

At around 3:40 a.m. on Sunday night, June 26, a satellite transmission truck belonging to the ZDF television network was set on fire in Munich’s Glockenbach district. The precious technological cargo of the special truck is certainly unusable, and the damage is enormous: several hundred thousand euros.

The burnt-out TV truck was part of a mobile production center, which had broadcast live from St. Maximilian’s Church on Sunday morning the mass of nationally renowned pastor Rainer Maria Schiessler. After the broadcast, the satellite broadcast vehicle was due to remain in front of St. Maximilian’s church until Monday… except that it didn’t make it through the night.

You Are The Crisis! DHL Fleet Torched in Hamburg, Germany

You Are The Crisis! DHL Fleet Torched in Hamburg.

The face of the exploitative system is sometimes only visible in this world by looking behind the numerous corporate logos that flash back and forth before our eyes every day, spitting at us from illuminated billboards or pestering us penetratingly from the Internet.

The companies behind names like Amazon, Tesla, Vattenfall, Deutsche Bahn, Thyssen-Krupp, Telekom, DHL, etc., leave much more visible traces in other areas of the world. Destruction of nature and war have turned this earth into a battlefield and the people and animals who live on it into mentally and physically unwell beings.

The analyses that try to capture what has led to the current misery here since the beginning of the industrial age are neither abstract nor far-fetched. They clearly name the capitalist actors as the culprits and the patriarchal system they adhere to as the root cause. Only complete idiots still believe that reformist policies and green capitalism can be acceptable ways out of the crisis.

Berlin (Germany): solidarity arson of a relay antenna.

Berlin: solidarity arson of a relay antenna.

For the lasting interruption of deadly techno-industrial progress.

On the night of April 26-27, we set fire to a cell tower in the Kaulsdorf district of Berlin.

Data flows and the telecommunication network are the sinews of progressive domination. The result of this technological capitalism was, is and will always be the exploitation and destruction of all forms of life. It is not enough to make a simple verbal and long-standing criticism against this state of affairs… The shit has to burn!

Kassel (Germany): incendiary attack of the car park of the German army

Kassel,incendiary attack of the car park of the German army

de.indymedia, August 17, 2022

On the night of Thursday to Friday of last week, two vehicles were completely burned in the district of Bad Willhelmshöhe in Kassel (Hessen region). The two cars that were completely destroyed by fire were two civilian vehicles belonging to the German army fleet, parked near the Bundeswehr technical school. The cops say the damage was in the mid-five figures. A small drop in the bucket compared to the huge sums currently being spent on rearmament.

Since all NATO member countries are required to spend at least 2% of their GDP on war preparations, spending on military and armaments products is skyrocketing in Europe. Since then, the German army has been subtly presented to us as an “antiquated troop, reduced to a pitiful size by cost-cutting” and “not fit for combat”. The aim is to convince the public that the huge investments in the military-industrial complex are justified and serve the security of Europe. When at the beginning of this year the war in Ukraine escalated again and the Russian ruling class sent its army to finish annexing the territories in the east of Ukraine that have been disputed for years, the calls for the necessary rearmament of Europe finally found complacent ears.

Berlin, Germany : Arson attack on car of prison profiteer SPIE in solidarity with prisoners

Arson attack on car of prison profiteer SPIE in solidarity with prisoners
Wednesday night, March 23, we set fire to a car of the company SPIE in Prenzlauer Berg. SPIE participates internationally in the construction and operation of prisons and other facilities for the purpose of total surveillance and control. Educational institutions, parks, transportation infrastructure, and consumer strips become places of discipline under the electronic eyes and sensors of a mix of private and state security systems. Where people could organize and shape their own lives, where they could resist and simply take what they are not granted under capitalism, companies like SPIE are contributing to the technological assault. Too little is opposed when it comes to the enemies of freedom. Let’s burn down their cars, let’s paralyze their infrastructure!
