The second issue of the insurrectionary / nihilist anarchist newspaper”Blessed Is The Flame”, originally published in 8 July 2024 in Greek, has now been translated in English. By doing so, we hold the ambition that this newspaper can become an international effort, bringing together all the direct action reports, statements and texts of comrades, and news about the struggles of anarchist prisoners that are scattered across the world, divided by language and communication barriers.

We make a call to any willing comrades around the world to assist us in translating the newspaper in other languages as well and diseminate it both digitally and physically; the document was designed to be easily printable as a A5-size booklet. Ideally, we would like to suggest an international collaboration between counter-information projects from all corners of the world, defying the recent repression efforts of various states who want to put an end to the diffusion of the ideas and practices of the anarchy of action.

The link for the PDF file:
http://blessed-is-the-flame.espivblogs.net/files/2024/07/Blessed-Is-The-Flame-Issue-2-2.pdf

The current issue includes direct action reports of the last four months (March – June 2024) from around the world, claims of responsibility from Greece, Italy, Germany, Chile and USA, news and statements from anarchist prisoners, as well as some texts with discussions related to organisational and strategic issues and considerations for the anarchist offensive, counter-surveillance and security, and (non-primitivist) critique of civilisation.

If anyone is interested in translating the document and/or creating an international collaboration, you can contact us at
blessedistheflame@riseup.net
We can provide the editable source file of the document.
We hope we will soon be able to translate the first issue of the
newspaper aswell (Jaunary 2024), covering counter-info for the period of November-December 2023. The link for the first issue in Greek can be found here:
http://blessed-is-the-flame.espivblogs.net/files/2024/01/Ευλογημένη-Η-Φλόγα-Τεύχος-1.pdf
The link for the second issue in Greek can be found here:
http://blessed-is-the-flame.espivblogs.net/files/2024/07/Ευλογημένη-Η-Φλόγα-Τεύχος-2-2.pdf

A final note: This newspaper is meant to be just a few pages per issue, so that it can be easier to read and cheaper to print. The current issue however is 28 pages long due to the fact that we were absent from the counter-info scene for about half a year and we wanted to cover as much material as possible from the time period that we were missing.

$hile: Call to action and propaganda 15 years after the death of anarchist comrade Mauricio Morales

Posted on 2024/04/30 by darknights

CALL TO ACTION AND PROPAGANDA 15 YEARS AFTER THE DEATH OF ANARCHIST COMRADE MAURICIO MORALES

“Before going to sleep I embrace chaos as an idea that frees my body and my mind
because at the end of the day it makes me feel alive.
I do not want the search for the grail that emanates freedom in future societies.
My fingers seek the bloody flight of the destruction of the chains of the rhythmic fire, of the nearby fire
rhythmic fire, of the nearby fire of power and its masters.
And my actions when I sleep are directed in that tomorrow when I wake up, I will break with the routine
with the routine and in the individual action with the chest like stone swollen by the destruction of this and any
destruction of this and any society.
Do me a favor: see to it that anarchy lives.”
-Punki Mauri

In the early morning of May 22, 2009 the anarchist comrade Mauricio Morales, Punki Mauri met his death after the early detonation of the explosive device that he intended to install in the Gendarmerie School in Matta neighborhood, Santiago.

Fifteen years have passed since his death in action and we continue to persist in his memory, remembering his warrior life, spreading anarchy in multiple ways and vindicating the insurrectional political violence that is still alive, that manifests itself in the proliferation of the idea and the facts with varied force and intensity, but always alive.

This call invites to a month of black memory, propaganda and action, to the concretion of public and anonymous gestures, without half measures, that the imagination flies, that we feel the blood in our veins, that the heart beats with emotion when we remember our loved ones.

Anarchy is dangerous and for it to continue this way we must endow it, empower it day by day, with discussion, feedback, with contagious propaganda and violent action, each one decides how to put into practice the ideas he/she propagates, the question is to do, without leaders or leaders, without hierarchies, in autonomy.

This humble contribution seeks to be one more contribution to the expansion of the memory of a comrade, positioning himself from the sidewalk of anarchic conflict against order, law, power and all authority.

FOR A BLACK MAY!

FOR THE EXPANSION OF CHAOS AND ANARCHY!

International Zine of Social War – ‘Alfredo Copsito: Class hatred & the myth of avenging anarchy’, Dark Nights #52

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.

Santiago, Chile: Statement claiming responsibility for the explosive attack against the central offices of the chemical industry Oxiquim S.A., in solidarity with anarchist Alfredo Cospito, from New Anarchist Subversion – Alex Núñez Cell / FAI

Statement claiming responsibility for the explosive attack against the central offices of the chemical industry Oxiquim S.A., in solidarity with anarchist Alfredo Cospito, from New Anarchist Subversion – Alex Núñez Cell / FAI (Santiago, Chile, November 28, 2022)

(Santiago, Chile) ATTACK WITH EXPLOSIVE DEVICE AGAINST OXIQUIM S.A.

With anarchist attitude, the central offices of Oxiquim S.A. in the municipality of Providencia, Santiago, Chile, were attacked.

The high-powered device did not explode because of a solvable technical problem, so we are aiming for more.

Oxiquim, a giant of the Chilean chemical industry and a direct supplier to the country’s major extractive industries in the forestry, mining, agroindustrial and fishing sub-areas.

Oxiquim, a company headed by Fernando Barros Tocornal, a businessman with a high level of influence in Chilean politics, a direct advocate of dictator Pinochet, former president Sebastián Piñera, and a board member of the animal exploitation company Agrosuper.

Oxiquim, directly responsible for the pollution and ecocide of the waters, territory and inhabitants of Quintero-Puchuncaví, defended by the Chilean Navy during protests against the so-called “sacrifice zones.”

This is a new act of revenge against the perpetrators of Earth devastation and destruction. It’s a new violent action by anarchist hands in permanent conspiracy and revolt. It’s a new attack justified by the existence of domination. It is another insurrectionary action in the no-holds-barred struggle for Total Liberation.

Against technological industrial complex that seeks to exploit and dominate all forms of life, WE ARE SELVAGE FORCE. Against illusions of democracy and against all governments and those responsible for Earth devastation, WE PROPOSE CHAOS AND ANARCHY.

We want that the news of this action reaches eyes and ears of imprisoned anarchist comrades, claiming solidarity as the continuity of the attack against power outside and inside prisons.

With particular complicity we stand with the vegan anarcho-nihilists arrested after the anti-speciesist attack against the animal exploitation company Susaron and with anarchist prisoners Joaquín García, Mónica Caballero and Francisco Solar. We also salute the high school students imprisoned for the anarchist uprisings in Santiago high schools and all those who from prison resist and struggle against the state and capital.

We send strength to Boris, Ivan and the anarchist prisoners in France. Strength for Erick King and the anarchist prisoners in the USA. Strength for Toby Shone in England. Strength for Gabriel and the anarchist prisoners in Spain. Strength for Giannis Michailidis and for anarchists imprisoned in Greece, Russia, the Czech Republic and around the world.

Strength for all anarchists who take action.

This attack is part of the international campaign of solidarity with anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito, on hunger strike against Italian state-imposed isolation. Alfredo, this is for you.

For anarchist sedition against every expression of civilized domination!
By all means against authority! With caution and courage!
To multiply anarchist attacks against power!

AGAINST THEIR WAR- AGAINST THEIR PEACE!

Under our noses the imperialist armies are massing in Ukraine, make no mistake, they are preparing, yet again, for a generalised slaughter. The British Army are already deploying troops and ‘high tech’ weapons, including missile systems to be installed along the Ukrainian coast. The Russian Army are similarly massing thousands of troops along the border, preparing for all out war.

Ukraine is of ‘strategic’ interest in the ongoing energy crisis engulfing Europe. One set of oligarchs want to place a new pipeline carrying world-poisoning fuel from Russia to the west. Another set want to frustrate these attempts to profit their own national bourgeousie. In addition to this, the U.S. and the U.K. want to bring Ukraine into ‘Nato’, their gangster-imperialist international formation which dreams only of endless war and plunder, especially now Afghanistan has been looted for all its worth, of fossil fuels as well as its opium (which continues to flood the western cities, the spoils of war!). Russia also has brutal imperialist ambitions, the only way their disgusting government of tin-pot autocrats, thieves and murderers can perpetuate itself is to redraw the class tension in Russian society into a nationalistic clash between Russia and ‘the west’.

Accordingly, this provides excellent cover for their sponsorship of real state terror, rather than the laughable antics which the british media focusses on, of providing assistance at every level to the grey beuraucrat manikins, all basically interchangable, who run Belarus and Kazakhstan, enriching themselves and those who can bribe them, while using their police to stamp on any sign of courageous upheaval.

Announcing a new multilingual anarchist book distribution – Rupture

Posted on 2022/02/22 by darknights

Rupture – Multilingual anarchist book distro

https://rupture.noblogs.org/

The passion for freedom, as well as the firmness to refuse any attempt to commercialise it, has led us to create this space to host a catalogue of books by different anarchist publishers. Written or translated, edited, and printed autonomously, these publications aim to give a concrete and coherent reference to the analyses, history, struggles, and experiences that have – and continue to – nourish our anarchist projectuality.

Our selection will not be exhaustive but will gradually increase. One will not find every title from the anarchist heritage, as it is not our intention here to create a supermarket of anarchist ideas, theories, or perspectives – not necessarily because we are not interested in all the forms this can take, but because we are in love with the idea, proposal, and practice of subverting the world of authority without delay. The freedom that we stubbornly seek is against any political strategy, suspicious of democratic consensus, and refractory to submission. So, this selection, available to all, carries the explicit intention of proposing, deepening, and refining anarchist practice that aims for social revolt, without mediation, without compromise, without anything to offer to the reform of this world.

At a time when perspectives of social revolution seem frozen in a sea of deliberate confusion, resigned fear, calculated catastrophes, technological colonization, and authoritarian hysteria, we relaunch, even more obstinately, the words in these books about and for struggle, to invite their readers to sail towards new and unknown horizons of freedom, autonomy, solidarity, conflict, joy.

This book distribution offers publications in English, Dutch, and German, available for single orders and for other distributions.

For anarchy!

“Να δημιουργήσω; Όχι, Να καταστρέψω, να καταστρέψω και ξανά να καταστρέψω, οτιδήποτε επιτρέπει η δύναμη που έχει απομείνει σε αυτούς τους μύες. Γιατί η καταστροφή είναι η δύναμη που έχει απομείνει. Το μοναδικό πράγμα που αξίζει έστω μια δεκάρα. Όλα τα άλλα θα περάσουν και θα χαθούν. Μόνο η καταστροφή τους θα διαρκέσει. Είναι ένα παράδοξο με ελάχιστα αντίστοιχα. Οι νέοι και ικανοί να χτίσουν καινούριους κόσμους, εκείνοι που για χρόνια, σε καθημερινή βάση, έθεταν τα θεμέλια της πίστης για μια καλύτερη ανθρωπότητα, τώρα οφείλουν να καταστήσουν την αιματοχυσία, την εσπευσμένη δράση, το σαμποτάζ, τα χαλάσματα, την καταστροφή, την εκμηδένιση, κορυφαία επιτεύγματα της ζωής.”
-Gusta Drenger, εβραία αντάρτισσα

Σκοπός του εγχειρήματος “Ευλογημένη η Φλόγα” δεν είναι μόνο μια θεωρητική διάχυση της μαύρης αναρχίας, αλλά τη διάχυση της ριζοσπαστικής θεωρίας/κριτικής που πηγάζει από την ενέργεια της εξεγερτικης οπλισμένης επιθυμίας, αναγνωρίζοντας ότι η κοινωνική κατάσταση, στην οποία βρισκόμαστε και δεν επιλέξαμε, οδηγεί τις ζωές μας στην πτώχευση, στην αποξένωση των εγώ μας.Δεν υπάρχει διαφορά στο τι κάνουμε και το τι σκεφτόμαστε. Μηδενιστές δεν είμαστε επειδή είμαστε απλά απαισιόδοξοι.Όχι, μηδενιστές είμαστε επειδή οι καταστάσεις γύρω μας δε μας επιτρέπουν να σκεφτόμαστε μελλοντικές ουτοπικές κοινωνίες αλλά ο αγώνας ενάντια στον πολιτισμό(κοινωνία, κράτος, κεφάλαιο κοκ) να είναι το μοναδικό πράγμα που να απολαμβάνουμε. Μηδενίζουμε μέλλον και ελπίδα ώστε να αγωνιστούμε εδώ και τώρα.Να απελευθερωθεί κάθε οργή κάθε εξεγερμένου.Δεν επιθυμούμε να ποντάρουμε στη μαζική κινητοποίηση εφόσον η κοινωνία είναι ρομποτοποιημενη.Οι πιθανότητες για ένα απελευθερωμένο κόσμο ίσως αρχίσουν να υπάρχουν όταν σταματήσουν εντελώς να ελπίζουν σε οποιοδήποτε σενάριο φλυαρίας ιδεολογιών.Στο εγχείρημα, συνεπώς, φιλοξενούνται αναρτήσεις, αναδημοσιεύσεις και μεταφράσεις -ενώ καλοδεχούμενα είναι κείμενα και μεταφράσεις- που κινούνται στην κατεύθυνση αυτή.
