U$A: Vertiv Corporation Trucks Set On Fire – Milwaukie OR

Posted on 2023/09/01 by darknights

Last week, to commemorate the International Week of Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners, under the cover of darkness a small incendiary device was placed on the wheel arc of a Vertiv truck located on the edge of a sleepy office park in Milwaukie OR. The delay was lit before we disappeared back into the forest

Vertiv Corporation develops critical support equipment and services for commercial IT systems—technology that is utilized by United States military in addition to state and federal law enforcement agencies, such as the FBI and ICE. Vertiv is part of the broad corporate infrastructure of state repression that condemns us all to a world of mass surveillance, borders, and militarized police

AGAINST COP CITY

This action was inspired in part by the continued militancy and creativity of the movement to stop the construction of Cop City in Atlanta GA. Cop City is a testing ground for other law enforcement agencies across the country to construct similar facilities—continuing a broader trend towards the militarization of policing and domestic counter-insurgency. For their part, Vertiv is a supplier to the Atlanta Police Department. Just in the year 2023 alone, the APD paid Vertiv $168,315 to utilize their technology.

Cop City is everywhere, so our resistance will be everywhere. March 5th was our call to war…

Berlin, Germany: Arson Attack Against a Vehicle Owned by Environment-Destroyer Züblin

Posted on 2023/08/22 by darknights

(B) Switch Off! Neighborhood and environment destroyer Züblin

Somebody has to build all this shit, the highways through forests, the jails, the palaces of the rich in the formerly green backyards of Berlin’s old buildings, the concrete aisles along the banks of the Spree River.

As we walk through the city, we repeatedly encounter the signs of a handful of companies that want to use them to mark who owns the city. Among them is Züblin, a construction corporation that pours cement on the explosive increase in rents. Züblin has long been active in the business of the capitalist attack on our living spaces, and was already targeted forty years ago for this reason, when construction machinery burned because of its involvement in the construction of Runway West in Frankfurt. During the Nazi regime, Züblin used forced laborers at Frankfurt Airport. Through its connection with Strabag, Züblin has become one of the leading tree killers, see the expansion of the A49 through the Danni or A66 through the Fechenheimer forest.

Naming such actors and sabotaging them unpredictably can be a modest contribution to the long-term wave of action towards revolt.

On the night of August 10, we shut down a Züblin vehicle with fire in Kreuzberg, Alexandrinenstraße.

The attack of the day before on the occupied houses in Habersaathstr. by a security company on behalf of the real estate mafia, shows the determination of our opponents to subjugate the city at any price in their pursuit of profit. There is nothing left but to target all profiteers of these exploitative relations.

Our action took place in a neighborhood that has been completely transformed in recent years in favor of the new urban elites. The nocturnal crackling of their vehicles is supposed to be part of the disturbing background music of the workers of Züblin, Amazon, DB & Co, when they want to regenerate in their new fancy apartments for another productive working day.

Hamburg, Germany: For Nahel and all the others. Private car of cop set on fire

Posted on 2023/08/12 - 2023/08/12 by darknights

A reformist view of the police as an organ of power is not only naive but also dangerous. Continuous killings by the pigs in uniform are proof that neither internal anti-racist programs nor public debate are able to keep the trigger-happy monsters in check and prevent the next murder. When we hear about the execution of a 19 year old who was riddled with 34 bullets by several cops and miraculously survived paraplegic, our hatred once again rises to immeasurable levels and we have to do something.

Let them be afraid on their patrols through the neighborhoods of the marginalized. They should be afraid at their desks when they arrogantly look at the human filth outside their windows. They are supposed to be afraid when they lie in their little beds at night dreaming of action against evil.

Being a cop is a conscious choice. They hear about the murders and the methods of oppression. They know about it and still apply to the police.

They should be sure of our contempt.

In joyful hatred and with the energy that the revolt in France gives us, we set fire to the private car of a cop pig in Eimsbüttel in the night of 12.7.

We join in the action against power with the anti-authoritarians and angry revolters in France. The pigs killed Nahel M. in Nanterre. The cop who took Nahel’s life and caused his family endless grief did it because he felt he had the right to do so. His uniform and his training give him permission. This pig identifies so much with his disgusting profession that he decides for himself whose life has value and whose does not.

Every cop is a potential danger.

Non-white people in a white society are much more often affected by deadly police violence than white people. But socially excluded, drug addicted, mentally ill, or people who are not from the right or middle class spectrum feel police violence more often.

We find ourselves in eternal hatred together with other hood-wearing people on the streets and squares of revolts.

So that the fear changes sides.

Chile: Arson attack on Red bus in Estación Central in solidarity with political prisoners

Posted on 2023/08/07 by darknights

In the early morning of Monday, July 31, a group of people who boarded as passengers, intimidated the driver, got off the other passengers and sprayed benzine to set fire to a Red bus on Las Rejas Avenue, next to Lo Errazuriz Park.

According to the Minister of Transportation Juan Carlos Muñozs, “this is a matter of investigation, however, preliminary information indicates that it is likely to have been intentional. Of course, we find this much more than regrettable, it is condemnable”.

A banner read: “Subversive Solidarity between peoples in resistance! Freedom to the subversive, anarchist and Mapuche prisoners: Luis Tranamil, Nelson Queupil, Rodrigo Cáceres, Daniel Canio, Mónica y Francisco, Mauricio Hernández, Tomy Moto, Caso Susaron and Caso Gendarmería. Our path is and will be the weichan!!!” Continue reading “Chile: Arson attack on Red bus in Estación Central in solidarity with political prisoners” →

Santiago, Chile: Incendiary attack on Red bus in Liceo Manuel Barros Borgoño school by Zukato

Posted on 2023/08/07 by darknights

On Tuesday, August 1, an incendiary attack was made on a Red bus outside the Liceo Barros Borgoño in solidarity with the Liceo de Aplicación student and classmate Zukato. A weapon was also displayed from the windows of the front of the establishment, intimidating the presence of the Carabineros who arrived to extinguish the fire on the bus and transfer it to the terminal to be inspected.

A banner and pamphlet read: “Zukato, we support you with kaos and rebellion” and “Solidarity and newen to those who do not hesitate to attack this world of misery. We call for solidarity with compa Zukato, who was injured and has been caught up in the morbidity and criminalization of the bourgeois press. In this same way we make it clear that as combative and subversive supporters we are not even in the sewer with their media, dominated and manipulated for the good of the powerful. Newen and speedy recovery for Zukato! Continue reading “Santiago, Chile: Incendiary attack on Red bus in Liceo Manuel Barros Borgoño school by Zukato” →

Chile: Claim of incendiary attack on RED bus outside the San Miguel Prison

Posted on 2023/08/07 - 2023/08/07 by darknights

Received by e-mail:

Incendiary attack on RED bus outside San Miguel Prison

When we visualize the face of the enemy, we immediately recognize the prison and its penitentiary system, with all its apparatuses and officials, as a focus to destroy, since it is there where historically they have sought to imprison revolutionary minds and actions.

Both in the past and in the present, we know that our comrades in prison have had to resist on a daily basis the constant harassment of their bodies, as the gendarmerie tries to systematically provoke the demoralization of our comrades in prison, through humiliation, punishment, torture, threats to take away their visits or orders in the face of any act that alters the codes of domination within the modules.

That is why, by means of a precision attack, we have set fire to a RED bus with an efficient incendiary device outside the San Miguel Prison, with the aim of altering the passivity that can be smelled in the streets in the face of a society that watches and controls behavior, longing for submission and building a false belief about the impossibility of fighting it.

A special greeting to comrade Monica Caballero, who is in a new trial against her together with Francisco Solar for several explosive attacks against repressors and powerful people. Insurrectional solidarity with Monica and Francisco!

A warm embrace for Itamar Diaz who recently experienced the punishment of the San Miguel jailers after confronting their authoritarian dynamics. Also for the comrades in Santiago 1 who were dispersed to different modules after showing solidarity with Itamar.

For all of you, a gesture of solidarity turned into fire, trying to oxygenate the daily life in prison, know that you are with us in every action. A speedy recovery to comrade Zukato.

For the abolition of prisons!
To multiply the autonomous action!

Bremen, Germany: Arson Attack on the Car of Bremen’s Senator of the Interior Mäurer

Posted on 2023/07/30 by darknights

Arson Attack on the Car of Bremen’s Senator of the Interior Mäurer

Switch OFF! the System of Destruction

Lina, Leon, Janis, Philipp, Johann, Martin, Clara, Paul, Jan…this is for you!

You did and do the right thing: organizing militant attacks against the capitalist system and all its assholes is important and necessary! Just like organizing to go underground and explore uncontrolled landscapes.

We set off a firebomb under the Audi of Bremen’s Interior Senator Mäurer near his front door on Weidedamm in Findorff, Bremen on July 19, 2023.

It feels like Mäurer has always been the senator for the interior, but for at least 16 years his job has been the unscrupulous implementation of the murderous European and German refugee regulations in the area of the Hanseatic city of Bremen. He was recently reappointed as the city’s chief manhunter for another four years. During his long tenure, he is responsible for thousands of deportations, arrests and imprisonments with all kinds of consequences for those affected. He has always backed murderous cops, such as the killers of Qosay Sadam Khalef and Mohamed Idrissi.

Mäurer had so-called “danger spots” set up in order to be able to carry out “independent-suspicion checks”. Twice a year, at the conferences of the interior ministers, he and his colleagues sing the chorus: “more weapons, tougher laws, more prisons…”.

This was also the case in June 2023, when shortly after the extreme tightening of EU refugee policy, the conference of interior ministers demanded further powers. 2000 km of border fences, tens of thousands of deaths in the Mediterranean, all this was still not enough for them.

Against left-wing radical subversion, Mäurer relies on observations and house searches. He provided administrative assistance for a year-long observation of the “Querlenker” car pool by federal authorities, which was carried out at great technical expense. During the presentation of the last Bremen report on the protection of the constitution, he speculated that the relative calm among “left-wing extremists” could be deceptive. He could be right.

The ongoing destruction of the earth, climate disasters, drought, water shortages, hunger and wars for the remaining resources, will force millions more people to flee. Military and police authorities of Fortress Europe will fight these people even harder. Also because of this:

Switch OFF! the system of destruction – NOW!

With our small fire we also remember two revolutionaries who died last year: Ronald Fritzsch and Rolf Heißler. Both began to organize militantly at the end of the 1960s. Later, they fought as urban guerrillas with the June 2nd Movement and the RAF (Red Army Faction), and after their arrests, many years in jail. We will not forget their energetic commitment to a communist or anarchist future.

Militancy 2023, far from being the last generation!

AG (Autonomous Groups) unrestrained and rampant*.

“If rabbits had shotguns, not so many would be shot!”

Barcelona, Catalonia: Responsibility claim for the incendiary attack on an Indra vehicle – EN/ES

Posted on 2023/07/30 by darknights

(07/25/2023) – From BCN IMC

Last Tuesday 25, at dawn, we attacked with our favorite materials: gasoline and fire, a van of the Indra company near the Vallcarca neighborhood. Indra, an arms manufacturer, constitutes the technical part of the development of the geopolitical and economic interests of states. Numerous contracts with the Ministry of Defense in Spain demonstrate their participation in military weapons projects, aside from being the company who controls 80% of the Sociedad Española de Misiles, the Spanish subsidiary of the main European missile manufacturer. Today, the military industry has adopted a new image that moves away from that of the military giving a coup to present another, the friendliest and smiling professional mercenaries who together with their suppliers respond to a social demand for security. When excuses such as terrorism are not enough to justify the augment of militarization, then the other great concerns of society become the necessary pretext for the military descent in the Metropolis. Thus, events such as the recent creation of the “Bibby Stockholm” prison-barge in the United Kingdom destined to continue repression towards migrants is not a coincidence.

The military complex finally ends up accompanying society in its decline with its gentle image, its technological surveillance systems and its sense of security for the citizenship, seeking to establish the deathly peace of the bosses and the legal owners with the support of the silent majority.

Given all this, we are left with the decision that our battlefield is that of denial and disobedience.
Through this action we would like to spread the fire in these conditions of continuous war against each symbol and face of the authoritarian society in which we have decided to fight.
We send our warm greetings to the companions Monica and Francisco, who are now facing a trial that will last months. The complicit words of fellow Francisco fill us with strength to continue exploring the paths of the anarchic conflict here and now.
Greetings also for Alfredo Cospito who is recovering after 6 months on hunger strike.

For insurrection, attack and revenge!

Para lxs que provocan incendios y otrxs individuxs afines: Reivindicación del ataque incendiario a una furgoneta de Indra (25/07/2023)

El pasado martes 25, de madrugada, atacamos con nuestros materiales favoritos: gasolina y fuego, una furgoneta de la empresa Indra cerca del barrio de Vallcarca.
Indra, empresa fabricante armamentista constituye la parte técnica del desarollo de los intereses geopolíticos y económicos de los estados.
Numerosos contratos con el ministerio de defensa de España demuestran su participación en proyectos de armamento militar a parte de ser quien controla el 80% de la Sociedad Española de Misiles, la filial española del principal fabricante de misiles europeo.
Hoy en día, la industria militar ha adoptado una nueva imagen que se aleja de aquella de los militares dando un golpe de estado para tomar otra mas amable de amigables y sonrientes mercenarios profesionales que junto a sus proveedores dan respuesta a una demanda social de seguridad.
Cuando excusas como el terrorismo no son suficientes para justificar el augmento de la militarización, entonces las otras grandes preocupaciones de la sociedad se vuelven el pretexto necesario para el descenso militar en la metropolis. Asi pues, sucesos como la reciente creación del barco-prisión “Bibby Stockholm” en el Reino Unido destinado a continuar y augmentar la represión hacia las personas migrantes no es una casualidad.
El complejo militar pues, finalmente acaba acompañando a la sociedad en su decadencia con su gentil imagen, sus sistemas tecnologicos de vigilancia y su sentido de seguridad por parte de la ciudadania, buscando establecer la mortal paz de los jefes y los legales propietarios con el apoyo de las silenciosas mayorias.
Ante todo esto nosotrxs nos quedamos con aquellxs que deciden que su campo de batalla es el de la negación y la desobediencia.
Mediante esta acción nos gustaria esparcir el fuego en estas condiciones de guerra contínua contra cada símbolo y cara de la sociedad autoritaria en la que nosotrxs hemos decidido luchar.
Enviamos nuestros cálidos saludos a lxs compañerxs Mónica y Francisco, quienes se estan enfrentando ahora a un juicio que durara meses. Las palabras cómplices del compañero Francisco nos llenan de fuerza para continuar explorando los caminos del conflicto anárquico aquí y ahora.
Saludos también para Alfredo Cospito quien se encuentra recuperándose después de 6 meses en huelga de hambre.

POR LA INSURRECCIÓN, EL ATAQUE Y LA VENGANZA!

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for the grenade attack upon a vehicle of a prison officer in Haidari by ‘Conspiracy Vengeance’

Posted on 2023/07/15 - 2023/07/31 by darknights

The group “Conspiracy Vengeance” claimed responsibility for a grenade attack upon a prison officer’s car in Haidari at dawn last Saturday (8/7).

Received anonymously:

In the current days it is obvious that the right-wing government has as its primary goal a junta mentality for the benefit of the few and against the many marginalized social groups. The regime of police democracy is growing, the repressive mechanisms are getting stronger and stronger. Cops shoot and kill without any consequence, cops invade universities. The slightest dissenting opinion is immediately attacked and silenced by the state of difference and decadence. In these circumstances, this whole repressive mentality has also passed inside the walls. Any form of protest and assertion of the self-evident needs of the prisoners finds “walls raised” and is immediately attacked by the scum and their courtiers who run the prisons. The prison guard in question, Dionysis Tsirgiotis, the chief prison guard at the Korydallos prison, is at the forefront of all events in every way against the prisoners. He is at the forefront of the investigations carried out by the prison guards in the cells of the prisoners. His words, his manner and the line he has drawn in the prison are clearly against all prisoners, preventing them from having a smooth coexistence under confinement. This particular prison guard aims to make life difficult for the prisoners and to climb by any means and through any means to the highest levels of power within the walls. We chose to attack his vehicle with a grenade to make it clear that there will be consequences and immediate responses to any form of behaviour, actions and decisions taken by ridiculous little petty people who think they can impose themselves on the backs of the cops and judges.

This time we sent a message to one of the thousands of scum who are plaguing the country and especially the prison system. You must understand that we can attack whenever and wherever we want, understand that you are NOT immune. No prison guard, no warden, no prosecutor should sleep peacefully serving the interests of the cops and the government against the prisoners. We can just as easily next time make sure that the grenade does not ONLY cause property damage. So think very carefully before making any decision against the prisoners.

NOTHING IS OVER, EVERYTHING CONTINUES. The responsibility is assumed by the group CONSPIRACY VENGEANCE
