Posted on 2023/02/06 - 2023/03/01 by darknights

PDF: Dark Nights #52 ‘Alfredo Cospito: Class hatred & the myth of avenging anarchy.’

International zine of social war contributing a partial text of Alfredo Cospito’s book ‘Which International?’ that has been used against him as a reason to incarcerate him in the isolation regime of 41 bis. They want to silence him, but we will not let the fascist Italian state to do so.

Dark Nights returns to its original 4 page format with the flyer handed out by comrades in Italy ‘Class hatred & the myth of avenging anarchy.’ Included is also a ‘Direct Action Chronology’ since our comrade Alfredo was imprisoned in the torturous 41 bis.

$hile: Words of Mawünhko and Tomás from prison in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2023/02/03 by darknights

Alfredo, today the weight of a mountain is trying to knock you down. We wonder how many times a day you struggle with your own mind. You have let us know the strength of your convictions, your body is emaciated, yet you have said it yourself “I will let myself die. My body is the last protest.”
Dangerous and highly contagious is your essence, every day in prison we think of you. A mighty forest dwells in your mind and only untamed spirits lurk in it.

Undecipherable to the powerful is your inexhaustible source of subversion. Until the last of your days you will continue your battle, from a small, dark cell, without communication, only with yourself. But in the dimension of your thoughts with your most beautiful memories, with each of your battles pumping through your veins, strengthening each millenary tree that stands in that forest.
A labyrinth with no exit is your mind for the slaughterers, for us a sweet and pleasant passage that you have let us visit, feel, observe…

For the end of the 41bis regime! Active solidarity with Alfredo Cospito!
Fire to all the prisons of the world!

Mawünhko, from San Miguel prison.
Tomás, from Santiago 1 prison.

$hile: Communiqué of anti-speciesist prisoners for the Susaron case in solidarity with the hunger strike of Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2023/02/03 - 2023/02/03 by darknights

With these words that carry the ballast of the innocuous, and the impotence of not being able to embrace you with exorbitant roars and hypnotic, nameless, denying flames, which cross continents and borders.
We sit down to write from our cages with a deep sense of pain, rage and fraternal admiration.
The machinery of global domination considers you so dangerous and unyielding that they have made it a priority to slice away the most threatening portion of your existence. Your zest for life, your pride, joy and lucidity. Because they fear. Because you managed to represent an indomitable threat that was never diluted in words.

From the state captivity of Santiago, Chile. We shout with the brutality of a thousand floods!
Down with the regime of torture and annihilation 41 bis!!!! 98 days of hunger strike!!!
We shout from continent to continent: Resist brother, here on the other side of this pestilent world you have warriors attentive to your steps.
We never waited for the conciliatory venia with the enemy for the resolution of our battles and necessities. And we will not do so now.
May the gestures of rampant audacity make the ground vibrate and the streets of the entire globe dominated by the machinery of subjugation burn with fire!
Until we get Alfredo out of this adverse situation, and overthrow that hideous psychopathic regime called 41bis.

ALFREDO COSPITO TO THE STREET!!!
TOGETHER WITH ALL THE PRISONERS OF THE SOCIAL-ANTISOCIAL WAR ALL OVER THE PLANET.
FIRE TO ALL THE PRISONS FOR HUMANS AND NON-HUMANS. WITH THEIR JAILERS INSIDE.

Berlin, Germany: For the 100th Hunger Strike Day, an Italian diplomatic vehicle burns

Posted on 2023/02/03 by darknights

We support the idea of decentralized actions and therefore follow the call for action week from the American South, which supports the hunger strike of Alfredo Cospito. Communication through actions and texts is an important approach to build an informal network.

With the attack on the Italian diplomatic corps in the German capital, with the targeted fire against the car number 3 of the embassy, we participate in the week of action. It was parked in Schöneberg at Barbarossa-Platz and belonged to Luigi Estero, the first Consigliere.
This act of revolutionary violence is aimed directly at those responsible for everyday brutal oppression. We want that the civil servants, the judges, the policemen, the politicians and the diplomats not have a quiet life – that they feel unsafe and that they cannot sleep in peace.
Because they are the ones who commit the political massacres, not the exploited, the oppressed or the anarchists. Blood is on the hands of the German and Italian elites who, to give just one example, use the so-called Libyan Coast Guard to murder thousands of migrants, those people who are supposed to exploit their bodies and the soil of their homeland at the lowest prices for the insane capitalism of Europe.

It is a good result that now the Italian Foreign Minister is thinking about increasing the security measures for his embassy staff. We advocate their total isolation. We send a conspiratorial wink at this point to the compas in Barcelona, who had a similar idea, breaking the windows of the Italian consulate there that same night.

Isolation switches sides. While fear grips the rulers, an idea materializes in the deeds of the anarchist movement. Alfredo Cospito is very close – real and alive – and so there is also a closeness among all the other insurgents in the jails and streets.

We salute them all and we are also especially happy to see the expansion of the attacks on forces of order, parties and corporations in Berlin.
Solidarity with Anna Beniamino, Ivan Alocco, Aldo and Lucas Hernández Valdés, Toby Shone and all the prisoners in the torture chambers of the 41 bis regime.

Freedom for all!

Spoleto, Italy: Claim for the attack on the villa of slaughterer Giorgio Del Papa, in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino

Claim for the attack on the villa of slaughterer Giorgio Del Papa, in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino

November 2006. Umbria Olii explodes and four workers die. One of many massacres in the name of profit, in a company known for its devastation of the land. But the arrogance of capital knows no limits and the boss Giorgio Del Papa will go so far as to demand 35 million euros from the families of the victims, accusing them of causing the accident.

The power of money, a huge amount, difficult even to imagine for the workers’ families, some of them migrants. The power of money that will prove to be useful, obtaining the attribution of responsibility on the workers themselves, resulting in the reduction of his sentence to four years.
Hearts full of hate, thinking of our comrades Anna Beniamino and Alfredo Cospito, we decided to give a face, a name, an address to the slogan ‘It is the State that Massacres’.

Because Anna and Alfredo risk life imprisonment for two bombs against the Carabinieri Cadets Barracks in Fossano, on June 2nd 2006, which unfortunately caused neither dead nor wounded. While the true slaughterers, the industrialists, the capitalists, are living it up in their villas.

That is why we went to pay a visit to the villa in Spoleto where the slaughterer Del Papa lives. We attacked the electric systems of his gate with fire and left left hanging an animal carcass. We’re sorry about the vampire, no human blood was found.

A small gesture to denounce the classist coherence of the Italian judiciary. For Alfredo, already 100 days on hunger strike againstr 41bis and life imprisonment without appeal.
Because let it be clear that if Alfredo dies, it’s your turn next. You can put a few prosecutors under escort, you cannot protect the entire bourgeoisie!

With this action we are not demanding justice, but we do claim revenge.
Revenge for the dead in the workplace.
Revenge for the dead in the middle of the sea.
Revenge for the dead in the prisons.
Victory or revenge for Alfredo Cospito.

International call for mobilisation at Italian embassies in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and for the end of 41 bis prison regime EN/ES/PT/IT/FR/GR/IN

INTERNATIONAL CALL FOR MOBILIZATION AT ITALIAN EMBASSIES IN SOLIDARITY WITH ALFREDO COSPITO AND FOR THE END OF 41 BIS PRISON REGIME

More than 100 days after the start of Alfredo Cospito’s hunger strike we extend the call to all like-minded individuals, groups, organizations and collectives to convene within their territories a mobilization outside the Italian embassies to put pressure on the Italian state and Alfredo’s executioners.

The comrade is dying because the state wants him to die. This is not just a ‘humanitarian’ problem, the comrade’s struggle is a call for international revolutionary action. Indifference and passivity will never be our allies; solidarity will be.

As well was expressed in a letter with a bullet inside to the Italian newspaper “Il Tirreno”: “If Alfredo Cospito dies, all the judges are a target”. Let’s let the Italian state know that if Alfredo dies, we will be his worst enemy.

The comrades from Chile and Colombia will be present this Friday, February 3th outside their embassies. We hope this initiative will spread further.

CALL, ORGANIZE AND ACT!
FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF ALL PRISONS!
END TO THE 41 BIS REGIME!
LONG LIVE THE BLACK INTERNATIONAL! Continue reading “International call for mobilisation at Italian embassies in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and for the end of 41 bis prison regime EN/ES/PT/IT/FR/GR/IN” →

Portland, Oregon, U$A: Solidarity Action With Atlanta and the Atlanta Forest Defenders

Posted on 2023/02/03 by darknights

“On 1/20/23 anarchists in Portland, Oregon went after the UPS shipping center in Portland in retaliation after a comrade was recently murdered by the Atlanta Police.

Anarchists broke somewhere between 10-15 large windows and started multiple small fires within the building. UPS is one of the biggest companies currently donating to the Cop City Project in Atlanta.

On 1/18/23 Atlanta police attempted a raid in the forest that was being protected by forest defenders and once they showed up they opened fire and killed a forest defender.

We want to express our love toward Tortuguita who was also known as Cami, as well as to all their comrades and loved ones.

Atlanta police stole a comrade and friend to many people from us on 1/18/23. few broken windows will never undo what the Atlanta police did but hopefully continued actions can bring the change that Cami wished for and hoped to see one day.

We call for more actions directly toward the companies that are donating to and funding the Cop City project in Atlanta. Forest defenders have a right to stay in the forest, and groups will continue to retaliate until the Cop City Project is cancelled.

Love from PDX to ATL”

U$A: Vengeance from Oakland – ¡Viva Tortuguita!

Posted on 2023/02/03 by darknights

Onto a concrete wall, "FTP" is tagged in red spray paint. "no war but class WAR," "KKKOPS KILL," and "KILL COP CITY" is  tagged in black spray paint.

On the night of January 20th 2023, 30 mournful anarchists took vengeful action against our enemies for the murder of Cami/Tortuguita in the Atlanta Forest two days prior. We shattered dozens of windows along the glass facade of a Bank of America building in downtown Oakland, destroyed the ATM’s, and repainted the walls with people’s messages of love, memory, solidarity, and rage at the assassination of our comrade before lighting the place up with molotov cocktails.

Bank of America is an enemy of the people and life itself. They currently fund the construction of cop city in Atlanta, the same project that threatens the forest that Tortuguita died defending. They deserve no place in our landscape. We destroyed quickly but tirelessly. Like the peasants in the Jacquerie, the Luddite wreckers, or the Haitian revolutionaries, we seek liberation in the most obvious way: the destruction of what we know is the cause of our suffering. And if we destroy much, it is because we have suffered much. “Vengeance! Vengeance!” is our war-cry.

To our enemies who seek to liquidate our lives and the earth: you will not murder us with impunity! We will strike back, each time more fiercely than before. The more you take from us, the more we have to fight for—the less we have to lose.

To our fallen comrades: your deaths will never be in vain! We will avenge you one thousand times over! Your blood is our blood. Your lives light the path of our struggle, and this is only the beginning.

We support Tortuguita whether they shot at the pigs or not. A shot fired at police is an act of liberation.

TORTUGUITA VIVE, LA LUCHA SIGUE

MARTYRS NEVER DIE

THE FLAME OF ANARCHY BURNS BRIGHT

COP CITY WILL NEVER BE BUILT

Rome, Italy: Claim of the arson attack on five TIM telecommunications company vehicles in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, Juan Sorroche, Anna Beniamino, Ivan Alocco and all anarchist prisoners

Posted on 2023/01/31 - 2023/01/31 by darknights

We receive from anonymous email and publish:

In the early hours of the night of Monday, January 30, we carried out an incendiary action against TIM. The attack was conducted by breaking into the parking lot of one of its offices and setting fire to 5 vehicles. Tim actively collaborates in social control through the installation of the fiber optic network, cameras and electronic bracelets.

Power and its ramifications are everywhere, and anyone who wants to strike at it is spoiled for choice. Take action today, without waiting for more propitious moments or compromising, just as power rages daily and hourly against our lives, revolt must also be daily and permanent.

Let the fire of denial blaze more and more in the cities with an indomitable force to spread chaos in your world of order and repression.

Let the murderous state and the bosses know that this is only the beginning and more than a threat it is a promise.
