Düsseldorf (Germany): incendiary sabotage of railroad tracks.

de.indymedia,21 January 2024

[Switch off] Rail strike extended

We took advantage of the back-to-back strikes and protests to paralyze the rail tracks near Düsseldorf in the Eller district again two weeks ago, using an incendiary device. They could not be repaired before the start of the freight strike. The fact that the State Protection Service (Staatsschutz) is now leading the investigation shows us the potential that such simple means can develop with the right timing.

We believe that a state that destroys our means of subsistence and profits from imperialist wars is not worth protecting at all. On the contrary, we must protect ourselves from it.

Berlin (Germany): attack on the A100 freeway construction site

Berlin: attack on the A100 freeway construction site

On the night of January 18 to 19, 2024, we neutralized 2 excavators on the 16th section of the A100 (Kiefholzstraße – Treptow) with time-delay incendiary devices. Numerous needle punctures like this can eventually bring down the system. It’s also a cheerful response to the Switch-Off call, which is now finding an energetic echo internationally.

Sabotage is a direct tool for stopping the projects of the powerful. One of their gigantic mega-projects is the continued construction of Berlin’s “Autobahn 100”. We believe that a multitude of different methods are needed, not just symbolic resistance. It’s pointless to appeal to the dominant political system, to its authorities and to democratic reason to prevent this concrete furrow in the middle of Berlin. Let’s turn our anger into courage and attack their profiteers, their managers and their construction vehicles. Through our ideas and our actions, we want to move closer, step by step, to a society where capitalism’s destruction of nature, its warlike and technological excesses, and the oppression of human by human, finally belong to the past.

Rome, Italy: Incendiary attack against two offices of Eni Plenitude (1st January 2024)

Rome: Incendiary attack against two offices of Eni Plenitude 1st January 2024

On New Year’s Eve we attacked two offices of ENI PLENITUDE of Rome, one in Viale Somalia and another in Via Togliatti.

The action was carried out by placing three incendiary devices (composed of fireworks and gas cannisters) between the windows and shutters of the premises.

We struck Eni due to its responsibility in the exploitation and pollution of the Earth and the militarisation of territories, supposedly in course of being developed.

Wars are inherent to capitalism, thanks to which capital is expanding, creating new markets and resources to be plundered. Eni has interests in the search for deposits off the Gaza strip and is closely linked to Italian geopolitical interests.
Striking national capital to strike capital’s war.

This action is a contribution to the SWITCH OFF! Campaign.

Bremen (Germany): attack on “Space Tech Europe” trade fair

Bremen , attack on “Space Tech Europe” trade fair

Attack on Space Tech Europe – Europe’s largest trade fair and conference for aerospace technology and services.

Space Tech Expo Europe

Space Tech Europe takes place from November 14 to 16, 2023, for the sixth time in the exhibition halls of the city of Bremen. It is Europe’s largest and most important exhibition and conference for space technologies and services. Here, the facets of the aerospace industry are brought to life through in-depth discussions and the companies involved. The aim: business, networking and presentation of new developments. Halls 4 to 6 of the show are dedicated to space production and services, components and systems engineering for spacecraft, as well as space launchers and satellite programs. More than 650 exhibitors from over 40 countries are present. A significant proportion of these exhibitors operate under the Military keyword. Alongside the five largest space companies Ariane, Orbitale Hochtechnologie Systeme (OHB), Airbus Defense and Space, the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the Center for Applied Space Technology and Microgravity (ZARM), DSI Aerospace, Polaris Spacecraft, Shieldex and Ferchau, the city of Bremen and its university (Humans on Mars) will also be represented. Parallel to the show and at the same venue, a conference is held to discuss technical, political and strategic details.

Attack from the rear

We took advantage of the trade fair to take an offensive action by an anti-capitalist and anti-militarist climate movement in the late afternoon of November 14. As participants gathered inside for networking, we met to express our hostility. We blocked off the street behind the exhibition center with barricades of burning tires, and threw bottles of paint and fireworks against the glass facades of the halls. It all came crashing down. The aim was to interrupt their comfortable exchanges with an offensive intervention. Representatives of the arms industry had to be confronted with the consequences of their business.

Bremen (Germany): burning electric charging stations

Bremen: burning electric charging stations

The costs of the energy transition … and electric charging stations on fire

The exploitation of new sources of raw materials, mines and factories to implement the so-called energy transition and the shift to electrified individual transport is in full swing: megafactories exploiting groundwater; new lithium mines in Portugal; nickel and gold from stolen indigenous land in Indonesia; exploitation of vanadium deposits in Norway and rare earths on Samí territory in Sweden; cobalt from the Congo… the industrial exploitation of copper, cobalt and nickel on the seabed; the supply of hydrogen from artificial islands in the North Sea or via neo-colonial import strategies from Namibia and Chile … the costs of this energy transition and of continued exploitation are now common knowledge. The shift towards green capitalism is inevitably accompanied by a intensification of the exploitation of people and nature!

There are an infinite number of targets, means and methods for attacking, delaying and sabotaging this process.

We have chosen to focus on an infrastructure that is currently developing rapidly and is present almost everywhere: electric charging stations. They are a necessary component of the Green New Deal’s transportation shift and therefore make an ideal, low-threshold target.
