Volos, Greece: Responsibility claim for an attack on ATMs, cops and OPKE in memory of Vassilis Maggos

Posted on 2023/01/24 by darknights

“Cops, judges, politicians have no reason to sleep soundly.” G. Michaelides

In the early hours of Saturday morning, we headed to the Eurobank bank at the junction of El.Venizelos and Iasonos streets, where 2 ATM machines were broken and then an attack was carried out on a police car and a vehicle of the OPKE, who arrived at the scene, by throwing empty bottles and stones. The above actions were taken as an act of vigilante action. We have no illusions, nor do we expect any vindication from the judicial organs of the state apparatus in the upcoming trial of the cops-torturers of Vassilis Maggos. It is time for fear to change sides. With this act we call for a generalization of the confrontational actions of the anti-authoritarian space in memory of Vassilis. We carve our confrontational path alone against rulers and their cover-up.

A wave of detentions of partisan heroes has just swept across Russia. Three young men aged 17, 18 and 19 were detained in Buryatia. In Mordovia an 18-year-old guerrilla named Artem was detained, in Voronezh a 17-year-old Nikita was detained. For sabotage on the railroad, the young men are awaiting charges of terrorism. But the repression doesn’t stop the partisan resistance.

Portland, U$A: Fire to the Earth Destroyers

Posted on 2023/01/24 by darknights

Answering a call for retaliation against the murder of Tortuguita, we burned a large excavator in Portland yesterday night.
Tortuguita died trying to kill a cop in defense of the Weelaunee forest. Never let this be forgotten.
With these flames we honor their bravery. With smoke we send a prayer into the night that the next cop won’t be so lucky.
We attack the same machines that threaten the forest in Atlanta and everything wild.
FIRE TO THE EARTH DESTROYERS
Until every cop is dead and all they defend burnt to ashes.

Leipzig, Germany: Anti-State-Attack in solidarity with the hunger strikers

Posted on 2023/01/21 - 2023/01/21 by darknights

Our small cell of anarchists decided to attack as our declaration of solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and the other hungerstrikers around the world. On the 11th January we damaged two buildings of the state in Leipzig. One is the citizens administration and the other is “Support”-center for criminal youth. Both represent institutions the state uses to control us. We consider the state our enemy that stands between us and our liberation, so we have to attack it relentlessy.

On our minds this night was the way the italian state tortures Alfredo Cospito. We see the fight in the prisons around the world and wanted to support the hunger strikers, too. Your writing and your actions as part of the Black International were always very similar with how we like anarchy for our self. Anarchy as the attack of every authority without compromise. We will keep doing that as long as we are free!

The 11th January was also the day that the subversive part of the activists in Luetzerath called for an action day. On our way back from the action we saw a car of one of the biggest housing-corporations in Leipzig – “Kühne Immobilien”. In solidarity with the brave defenders of Luetzerath we destroyed their car, too. The climate movement could learn a lot from Cospitos actions. What a dream it would be to hear of the detonation of a bomb in front of the police station in Aachen or the kneeshot for the CEO of “RWE”. Maybe we will get there in Germany at some point.

One night later in leipzig anarchists burned 6 cars from Hertz in solidarity with Cospito! That is music in our ears! https://knack.news/4783

Berlin, Germany: You are the crisis – Fleet of climate killer and crisis profiteer AMAZON set on fire – Solidarity with Lützerath and the prisoners on hunger strike

Posted on 2023/01/19 - 2023/01/19 by darknights

In the early morning hours of January 16, 2023, we gained access to a well-secured area in the Germaniastraße in Berlin-Tempelhof and took 25 Amazon Prime vehicles out of circulation using incendiary devices. A fire of solidarity with the squatters in Lützerath and the prisoners on hunger strike.

The consumer mania on Black Friday and the lucrative Christmas business are over. The pompous charity and the little bit of contemplation give way to the usual routine of everyday life. The elbows are again extended to be able to exist in the competition of the present society. Inflation and the rising cost of living apparently defying the commodity rush and the associated plundering of the planet and its resources continues unperturbed in the new year and fills the coffers of the crisis winners of the online trade. Amazon’s monopoly position and extensive business model have long revealed it to be a dependency factor for many. But the company stands for much more than just flushing products onto the market at rock-bottom prices.

Your thoughts and feelings are worth their weight in gold

The IT giant’s technological developments point to a bleak future of a dystopian surveillance and control society. Amazon, as a driving force in the establishment of digital capitalism, is not only permanently changing the economy, but also everyday life, social behavior and even our ways of thinking. Artificial intelligences and algorithms are able to contr ol and manipulate needs. Calculations that can be derived from this are already shaping today what will be made into money tomorrow. With a wide range of products and technological infrastructure (servers), the company is pushing into more and more areas of life to satisfy its insatiable hunger for data. Be it through the surveillance software Amazon Ring, which acts as an all-seeing eye guarding the properties of the rich and – now also installed in vehicles – subjects the environment to permanent monitoring. By the voice assistance Alexa, which lurks as ears of the AI in the living rooms and bedrooms and attends even the most intimate moments. By means of facial recognition programs and sensors that are supposed to interpret emotions and direct customers through the self-pay stores of Amazon-Go. Or with a variety of developments in the fields of health and biotechnology to capture everything physical and break it down into numbers. Amazon knows that anyone who has large amounts of information and data at their disposal and can translate the present into mathematical dimensions also has the power to influence the future to their own advantage.

Cologne, Germany: Sabotage arson attack against RWE coal train

Posted on 2023/01/19 - 2023/01/19 by darknights

In the night of 12.01.2023 we set out in deep solidarity with our friends in the Zad Lützerath to sabotage the coal railroad in the Cologne city forest.

With two strategically placed incendiary devices we hope to have stopped the delivery of the coal at least for a small moment.

RWE deserves nothing but our deepest hatred!

Even if the cops occupy the whole Rhineland they can’t watch us everywhere.

The night belongs to us!

Our action is part of a militant campaign for the preservation of the autonomous zone and against the global climate destruction.

Fossil energy production and its exploitation of the planet must be stopped at all costs.

We greet all those who oppose climate destruction and oppression throughout Germany and the world.

Freedom for all!

For a militant climate movement!

Leipzig, Germany: Arson attack against Hertz vehicles in solidarity with anarchist prisoners

Posted on 2023/01/19 by darknights

Cheap thrills

Come on, come on, put the mask on
It’s wednesday night and I won’t be long

Gotta do my hair, put my gloves on
It’s wednesday night and I won’t be long

‘Til I hit the target, hit the target
I got all I need
No, I ain’t got cash, I ain’t got cash
But I got you, baby

Baby, I don’t need dollar bills to have fun tonight
(I love cheap thrills)
Baby, I don’t need dollar bills to have fun tonight
(I love cheap thrills)
But I don’t need no money
As long as I can feel the heat
I don’t need no money
As long as it keeps burning

(Cheap Thrills, Sia & Sean Paul)

With this earworm in mind and inspired by the prisoners in Hamburg, in Rome and in Athens, we attacked Hertz with fire on the night of January 12. Hertz cooperates with the enemies of our freedom and must pay for it.

In solidarity with the prisoners on hunger strike, Alfredo, Ivan, Thanos, and with the 11 prisoners from Turkey. For all the anarchist prisoners imprisoned by the state and for all the others who continue to fight outside.

Greetings go to the people who militantly defend Lützerath

For an international solidarity full of hate and passion!

Until the next parking lot.

Thessaloniki, Greece: Responsibility claim for incendiary attack on a bank in solidarity with anarchists Thanos Chatziangelou & Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2023/01/19 by darknights

Because we’re the ones who hang out at night, conspire in our meetings and constantly think of ways to act. When we are hit, we have an obligation to make our presence felt, to show a signal of resistance, to give a breath of life to what we call solidarity.

We are hit in many ways, at work where the need to survive is exploited, on the street where a person may think a person is vulnerable and become abusive or an immigrant is dangerous and let out their racist rant, in the marches with the mats attacking, but we have shown that we have aggressive characteristics too and we will be confronted, in our social and political spaces where the power with the bullshitocracy thinks it will suppress us. But we will not let that happen.

We experience violence in various forms every day, we have learned to resist through our relationships, collectively and individually we are determined and we will win.

The road to anarchy is rough, if it doesn’t happen today, it will happen tomorrow, if you and I don’t see it, the next ones will see it, but we will not give up, that is the only certainty.

And when one is imprisoned, that is when one is confronted with power in all its glory, that is when the system thinks it has a victory to show its masters. But no. Because inside and outside the walls that separate us we continue to act. For each other, we are side by side, fighting to change what oppresses us, what we will no longer tolerate.

With all our strength, thought and patience, we never lose the appetite to come back, to challenge the existing that you have turned into a giant prison of fear and repression.

We have sharpened our blades to cut the chains you are passing through our bodies.

As a minimal sign of solidarity with imprisoned comrades on Thursday 29/12 at dawn we placed an incendiary device in a bank in Martiou Street in Thessaloniki.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for the ambush on the DIAS group in the area of Zografou

Posted on 2023/01/19 by darknights

FEAR CHANGES SIDE

On Thursday night 12/1 we organized and carried out an ambush against cops of the DIAS group in the area of Zografou. The way the ambush was set up and the intensity of the attack we carried out, resulted in the serious injury of a cop and the total destruction of a motorbike -only this one arrived at the scene- of this particular group. The high strength of firepower used was proportional to the impunity of this group, which already counts 2 murdered Roma in the last 16 months and dozens of incidents of “police arbitrariness”. This was a powerful response to the crescendo of police repression orchestrated by the New Democracy government, which has given the police force free rein to beat, torture and shoot in cold blood, knowing that none of them will be punished and their crimes will be covered up by the lies of journalists, the impunity of the bourgeois justice system and the cover of the political leadership.

We say to the cops in the ranks and to their superiors. For the wanton violence you have used, we will punish you with our own hands. Your colleague’s cries of despair are proof of your weakness when faced with organized forces of revolutionary violence. Panic, pain, fear, insecurity, these are the emotions we offered you during the ambush against you. Draw your conclusions from them because your sense of omnipotence ended with a bang in a dead end at Zografou. With this action we want to pass the message that with organization, planning and discipline we can hit the forces of repression by causing fear and material costs to both animate and inanimate material.

The law and order doctrine that the New Democracy government has been applying since the first moment of its election has left behind dead, wounded, tortured and raped. The constant impunity of the cops is not an accidental fact but the essence of this doctrine. The last link in a huge chain of incidents is the cold-blooded execution of the 16-year-old Roma Kostas Fragoulis, because he ‘dared’ not to pay 20 euros for petrol.
