France: All fire, all flame. Interviews with former members of the Revolutionary Cells (RZ) Germany, 1973-1993 FR/EN

Tout feu, tout flamme
Entretiens sur la résistance armée avec des anciens des Cellules Révolutionnaires (RZ)
Allemagne, 1973-1993

En 1973, deux attentats à la bombe contre une multinationale des télécommunications en République Fédérale d’Allemagne marquent les débuts de ce qui allait devenir les Revolutionäre Zellen (RZ, « Cellules Révolutionnaires »). Inspirées par les mouvements de libération armés dans le dit tiers-monde et portées par l’agitation subversive qui secoue les métropoles occidentales, les RZ réalisent des dizaines d’attaques, ciblant plus particulièrement le complexe militaro-industriel. Au début des années 1980, elles définissent un angle plus social-révolutionnaire avec le foisonnement d’importantes luttes offensives contre la construction de centrales nucléaires et d’autres nuisances industrielles, de conflits contre l’OTAN et le militarisme, de combats contre le patriarcat et les nouvelles technologies, ou encore de révoltes d’une jeunesse enragée. Dotées d’une solide logistique souterraine décentralisée, les RZ revendiquent près de 200 attentats, principalement explosifs et incendiaires, jusqu’en 1993.

Dans ces entretiens, trois anciens des RZ donnent leur vision du parcours historique de cette organisation de résistance armée. Avec une disponibilité au débat encourageante, ils dressent des bilans critiques, s’interrogent sur l’action offensive, réfléchissent sur les difficultés qu’implique une structure organisationnelle décentralisée mais permanente, questionnent les rapports au sein des groupes d’action souterrains et reviennent sur les péripéties de vies ayant une dimension de combat clandestin.

« Notre objectif est et a toujours été la diffusion de la résistance armée, était et reste le soutien d’un réseau de groupes autonomes qui, en tant que tendance armée au sein du mouvement, sont capables d’agir par eux-mêmes dans leurs villes et régions, qui y poussent plus loin les contradictions. »

$hile: In response to the repressive onslaught of the state against the comrades imprisoned in Santiago 1 and San Miguel. Words from Monica, Joaquin, Marcelo, Juan and Francisco.

Posted on 2023/06/24 by darknights

Prison reality is constituted by a permanent tension where our convictions and the certainty of our position at all times come into play, inevitably.

This reality implies always bearing in mind that the jailer can dispose of our lives at any moment and that our strength lies precisely in having the certainty that we will face each of these adverse situations always with dignity.

Increased restrictions, transfers and sanctions are part of these impositions that today affect our comrades locked up in the prison-company Santiago 1 and comrade Itamar in the CPF of San Miguel.

The comrade today in the punishment zone is faced with threats of transfer and the crafty tricks of a jailer with pretensions of making a name for herself. It is necessary to emphasize that this situation is due to the fact that the comrade, together with other prisoners in Tower 5, has spread the word about the abusive practices of the jailers during the raids, in a clear attitude of struggle and confrontation.

The comrades, for their part, are fighting for their regrouping after they were removed from Module 1 with the excuse of dismantling it and were distributed among different units, and today several of them are in Module 88 of punishment.

Chile: Update on the situation of political prisoners in the concessioned prison $antiago 1

Posted on 2023/06/24 by darknights

On May 31, 2023, we were informed by the relatives of the political prisoners located in the CDP Santiago 1 subject to preventive measure of preventive detention, that seven of them had been transferred from module 1 arbitrarily, without any explanation, considering that all of them had been designated to the maximum security module 1A of the penitentiary center by order of the Guarantee Courts for being cases of “public connotation”.

In view of this situation and the uncertainty regarding their location inside the prison, we were asked to visit them legally in order to know their situation.

On Thursday, June 1, we went to the prison to corroborate the state of health and the location of the political prisoners of Santiago 1, and with great difficulty we were able to see three of the seven accused who had been transferred.

We learned that the three were in different modules, they told us that they had passed through different modules, where the prison population refused to receive them due to overcrowding issues, directly denying them access or even, in some cases, forcibly removing them from the space once they were already inside. Despite this situation we were able to confirm that they are well, whole, firm and unbending.

$hile: Transfers and dispersal of political prisoners in Santiago 1. Words by Claudio, Koda and Ambro.

Posted on 2023/06/24 by darknights

On Wednesday, May 31, we were removed from Module 1 by orders of the gendarmerie, whose objective was to disarm the maximum security module. 6 political prisoners were sent to module 11 where for obvious reasons of number of people they did not let us in, then they sent us to classification where they offered us only medium danger modules (under our “consent”) threatening us that if we did not sign they would give us a random module.

Comrade Syde was sent only to module 16 where he decided not to stay so as not to leave us alone.

Of the 7 of us who were lifted only two were able to spend the night in a module (13 and 36) and the rest went to the punishments, a place where your life hangs by a thread.

We call to agitate, act and demand that our condition of political prisoners be recognized and that we be grouped in the same module.

We: Claudio, Ambro and Koda, who write these words have no knowledge of the situation of our comrades, we have heard rumors that those who came to the punishments lost all their belongings, we hope from the bottom of our hearts that they are safe and sound, otherwise, we hold directly responsible to

gendarmerie of chile.

Let’s fight and demand dignified conditions for the political prisoners.

Communique Claim Action: Conspiracy from Unit Nemesis (Response to false claim in Jakarta) – ATMs destroyed – Video

Posted on 2023/06/24 by darknights

“Above all one thing must be clear, one is only part of the FAI-FRI in the moment of the action, then each one returns to their life as anarchist, nihilist, individualist, to their own projects and rebel or revolutionary perspectives with all their adjuncts of assemblies, coordinations, affinity nuclei, occupations, communes, struggles in the territory and so on and so forth.”[¹]
Alfredo Cospito

After hundreds of nights spent, after being in a sea of individual adventures, we returned to our basement to continue the urban guerrilla warfare by enabling all methods of action, even though our footsteps were previously heavy enough to make the consistency of ouraggressiveness towards social relations overlaid by civilized moral societies and hierarchies. By a civilized moral society and the odious hierarchy and authority of the rulers and the bourgeoisie of the financiers! We will still attack as we are able to do at any time and anywhere! We are a threat to authoritarians and bourgeois financiers who love the monster of democracy for its profit!

On Monday June 12, 2023 at 02:56 AM we vandalized a Bank Negara Indonesia ATM located in front of Sekip Ujung Market, Jl. Amphibi, Palembang City, South Sumatra Province. And an act of vandalism from our conspirators on Wednesday June 21, 2023 at 00:30 AM in the morning at the Bank Tabungan Negara ATM located on Jl. Bibis Bunder, Gesikan, Krian, Krian District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java and at 00:59 AM WIB at the Bank Negara Indonesia ATM on Jl. Raya Kalijaten, Taman District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java.

June 1953 – Proletarian uprising in East Germany

Posted on 2023/06/19 by darknights

PDF

Reality of proletarian struggle versus workerist myths

It was on June 17th, 1953. Important sectors of the proletariat rose up in East Berlin before this revolt spread all over the “German Democratic Republic” and was repressed by the intervention of the Red Army (red with insurgent proletarians’ blood).

We will not here, in this short text, develop in detail how this movement expressed itself. We only insist on drawing the main forces and weaknesses, which historically recur from one struggle to another despite the particular conditions that make emerging such a struggle at a place and a moment, and not at others. Our goal is not to tell a story but to draw programmatic lessons from previous struggles for the future insurrections. Nevertheless, we invite comrades to read Cajo Brendel’s booklet “1953: The Working Class Uprising In East-Germany” (which was one of many sources of inspiration) despite the fact that we have reservations about the ideological framework (i.e. councilism) of this militant and that we criticize in the course of the present text.

This uprising, some weeks after Stalin’s death, put back on the forefront of history the visceral antagonism that opposes two social classes with antagonistic and contradictory interests and programs. And this, whatever shape the bourgeoisie takes to contain proletarians. Because it’s always with force that the proletariat imposes its existence of a class which is deprived of all and its necessity to put an end to this old world, whatever the nature of the facade restoration may be or the colour (red, white, brown…) used to repaint our exploitation. At the strongest moment of the counterrevolution, whereas our enemies robbed our flags, whereas their state proclaims itself to be a “workers’” one and they pretend to manage us in the name of the “dictatorship of the proletariat” (which in fact never existed and was replaced by their dictatorship over the proletariat), it’s the internal contradictions of the social relation that make class struggles re-emerging.

Villepinte (France): Anarchist comrade Ivan Alocco is out of prison

Posted on 2023/06/17 by darknights

I was released from prison on June 12.

The investigating judge issued an order placing me under judicial supervision.
The restrictions are :
– a ban on traveling to the Île-de-France neighborhood
– a ban on leaving mainland France
– I must report to the gendarmes once a week
– I have to hand in my passport and identity card at the court clerk’s office.

The investigating judge’s decision to let me out of prison, quite surprising in view of her recent opposition to a request for release, is perhaps due to her desire to “cover up” the incompetence of the JLD. In fact, my lawyers have lodged an appeal for a procedural defect following the last extension of my preventive detention (the January 24 hearing). If the appeal had been accepted, which it probably would have, it would have confirmed that the JLD and her clerk’s office don’t know how to read…

For the time being, the investigation remains open. Continue reading “Villepinte (France): Anarchist comrade Ivan Alocco is out of prison” →
