Berlin, Germany: Fire against police for Anarchist comrade Alfredo Cospito

Posted on 2022/12/06 by darknights

Fire for Alfredo

1/12/22

This night we set fire to pigs’ cars in front of a police station in Berlin.

We dedicate our action to Alfredo, Anna, Juan and Ivan. they are all on hunger strike against the brutal repression by the Italian state.

In the night before Alfredo’s court hearing to review the 41-bis measures against him, we send a message of solidarity. We, your friends and accomplices around the world, walk next to you on the path of refusal and attack.

With the sentence, the italian state wants to silence Alfredo and prevent him from spreading the anarchist idea of total liberation, subversion and autonomy. but they forget that there are many of us and we are everywhere .

41-bis is used as an instrument of control against our comrades. the number of criminal acts punishable by imprisonment is increasing, as is the severity of the punishments. but you will not silence us, you will not suffocate our rebellion.

Our targets are all the repressive instruments of the nation states, like police, prisons, solitary confinement, §129a, 41-bis. There is no difference between Italy and Germany, there is no difference between all these so called “democracies”. Our enemy is the cruel system we live in and all those who want to maintain it.

These flames are also an expression of the flame of rage that burns under our skin after the racist murders committed by the pigs in the last months. Those who were involved in the murder of Mouhamed Lamine Dramé and defend the murderers: feel our hatred and wait for us, ready to strike in revenge, breathing down your necks.

With this action we also show our solidarity with our comrades and the Community of the Squatted Prosfygika in Athens, and we make it clear that we will not accept any attack on our structures without resistance.

LIBERTÀ PER ALFREDO, ANNA, IVAN E JUAN! LIBERTÀ PER TUTTI E TUTTE!

We learn from local media, from an article published on Dec. 2, of an attempted arson attack against some vehicles parked in front of Unicredit’s executive headquarters, including a corporate vehicle of the bank, in Perugia’s Madonna Alta neighborhood. According to reports, the vehicles were not seriously damaged. On some were found the inscriptions ” Fire to the prisons” and ” Out Alfredo from 41 bis,” in reference to the all-out hunger strike against the 41 bis prison regime and hostile life imprisonment undertaken by the anarchist Alfredo Cospito since Oct. 20. Currently, other than the writings found by the repressive forces, no claim or communication regarding the attack appears to have been released.

Milwaukie, Oregon, USA: KONE service truck set ablaze in solidarity with anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito & Alabama prison movement

Posted on 2022/11/26 - 2022/11/26 by darknights

On the night of November 21st, a KONE service truck was set ablaze while parked behind their corporate office in Milwaukie, Oregon.

This fire was lit for anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito in solidarity with his hunger strike against the 41Bis regime in Italy as part of the international call to action.

Cospito was arrested in 2012 and remained imprisoned by the Italian state ever since. According to prosecutors he was linked to various clandestine actions and membership in the Informal Anarchist Federation (FAI). Throughout his imprisonment he has remained committed to the anarchist struggle by texts and interventions. Eventually, on the 5th of May, he was cut off all contact to other humans. From that day on and indefinitely, he lives under the so called 41Bis regime, in a blatant attempt by the Italian state at total isolation.

The multinational corporation KONE a manufacturer of elevators, escalators, and door systems has contracts with prisons and military facilities worldwide, including the Aviano NATO Air Base in Northeastern Italy, through their subsidiary KONE SPA.

Through the practice of revolutionary solidarity we aim to break the isolation of the prison cell. By attacking the corporate infrastructure that enables the system of mass incarceration it is our intention to expand the struggle against prisons beyond the prison walls. To ensure that no prisoner struggling for freedom does so in isolation

Solidarity with Juan Sorroche, Ivan Alocco and Anna Beniamino who have joined Alfredo Cospito on hunger strike against the 41Bis regime.

Solidarity with the Alabama prison movement that recently completed a 3-week work stoppage that effected all 13 prisons in the Alabama Department of Corrections system.

Rostov-on-Don

November 17. During one night, an unknown guerrilla attacker damaged eight police cars in the Zheleznozhozhny district. All cars had their windows broken.

Novosibirsk

On 18 November in Novosibirsk anarchists destroyed an outdoor surveillance camera.

Moscow

On November 21 a warehouse of Ministry of Internal Affairs burst into flames at Moscow-Leningradskaya station. The warehouse was 10 meters away from the building of MIA. When the fire began to spread, the employees themselves fled, but there was enormous material damage: dozens of printers and scanners, 50 chairs, 20 armchairs, 10 tables and two air conditioners (and also a whole sports simulator and a bunch of gloves with masks) were burned. A criminal case has been opened.

Grozny

On November 21 a daredevil attacked a police inspector with a knife while he was performing prayers. The partisan attacked him from behind while the servant of the regime was ablution and stabbed him to Allah.

The assailant thus seized the policeman’s service weapon, but was unable to use it because he was shot dead by the killer’s colleagues. The murder of the assailant was reported by Ramzan Kadyrov himself. It is reported that the identity of the assailant has not been established, and that he most probably acted alone.

This is not the first attack on police officers in Grozny. Specifically, on December 28, 2020, two policemen were attacked by indviduals in the center of the city, armed with knives and tried to seize their weapons. As a result of the attack, one policeman died and another was wounded and hospitalized. Both attackers were killed.

On December 17, 2020. The Investigative Committee opened another criminal case over an attack on police officers in the Kurchaloysky district of Chechnya. According to preliminary data of the investigation, the attack happened around 1 a.m. on December 17 after two men in a VAZ-2114 car refused to stop on demand of policemen. During the pursuit the intruders opened fire at the policemen with an assault rifle, they were killed in return fire. Continue reading “Russia: Radical Resistance 15 – 22.11.22” →

Athens, Greece: Taking responsibility – Against the war industry by Anarchists

Posted on 2022/11/25 by darknights

Taking responsibility – Against the war industry

In the days of commemoration of the Polytechnic, we must not forget the anti-militarist implications of the uprising. In the midst of military dictatorship, one of the central slogans of the occupied Polytechnic in ’73 was “Out with NATO”. Picking up this thread, anarchy today must find a way of direct action against those who profit and gain from these wars.

While we try to develop anarchist considerations and analyses of every interstate war conflict, one of the most important aspects of the multifaceted anti-military struggle is often ignored: sabotaging the death machine on the ground we are on.

Since we are in NATO’s territory of influence, we have a duty to sabotage everything used by the armed forces of the Greek state and its allies, the arms industry, the financiers and those who give orders and make decisions.

Toulouse, France: ‘Borne… to be burned!’ New electric car charging station burned

Posted on 2022/11/19 by darknights

New electric car charging station burned down on boulevard de Suisse, in Toulouse, this Thursday, November 10.

Energy is their future. Fossil or renewable, and especially nuclear, imported or not, production is always increasing, defining our needs and ruining lives.
The French state wants to stay in the race of energy markets. The restructuring of the car fleet is one of them, with the announced plan for 2030 of 2 million electric cars; this means new lithium mines, whole fields of photovoltaic panels and windmills, cities closed to all those who cannot afford to buy the new Zoe or a Tesla. If the planned goal of 100,000 electric charging stations has not been reached this year, it may be because this future is only of interest to car shareholders and a few hypertechnology enthusiasts. Since this summer, several recently installed charging stations have been destroyed in Toulouse, one of the test cities of the LEZ (low emission zone subject to the crit’air sticker). We participated in this resistance. The LEZ is an ecological decoy and a social injustice. Because we do not see a transition but an accumulation of energy resources whose exploitation conditions the survival of this shitty system. We see with joy that a resistance is also unfolding everywhere in many ways, and more broadly against the industries that pump all the energy.

Berlin, Germany: Fire of Solidarity for Alfredo Cospito by Autonomous Cell ‘Anna Maria Mantini’

Posted on 2022/11/13 by darknights

In the early hours of 31 October, we set fire to a van belonging to the GA-Tec company. This company for building and facilities management technology is 100% owned by the Sodexo group and runs prisons itself (in England and Chile) and is a big profiteer of the prison industry. The van burnt out in the Lichtenberg district, where a number of cars have been burnt recently.

Not only to cause damage to the company, but out of an inner motivation we could not help but make such an attack against our oppressors. The news that the comrade Alfredo Cospito is being tortured in the so-called “41bis” regime of justice by the Italian state leaves us anything but indifferent. Alfredo is not only to be muzzled, his existence is on the verge of extinction. We unite with his militant push. Together with his hunger strike, we break the total isolation. We also call on all other comrades to take direct action now and decisively shorten the reaction time of the anarchist international struggle. To snatch Alfredo Cospito from the regime of extermination and unleash a revolutionary force in the coordinated offensive. Not to live in prison or in the isolation regime means a great responsibility. In the struggle combined with hunger strikes, we cannot wait until the prisoner also has to go on thirst strike.

Militant campaigns triggered by hunger strikes can open up a substantial anti-capitalist perspective. Metropolises can be transformed into jungles where the infrastructure of the ruling classes could be completely destroyed if its inhabitants decided to do so. Prison profiteers, arms companies, police contractors, construction corporations – their glass facades, vehicles and data lines that are encroaching on the habitats of our class in increasingly dense urban centers or being used to try and protect themselves in their own sanctuaries. Just like how the GA-Tec/Sodexo van we attacked was engulfed in a high-rise precariat housing estate, it could become commonplace for the logistics of power as the intensifying class antagonisms and the militant campaigns of the anarchist milieu develop a common approach.

Solidarity also to Juan Sorroche and Ivan, who immediately joined Alfredo’s struggle and are also on hunger strike.

Freedom for them and also for Giannis Michailidis, Claudio Lavazza and Toby Shone.

Victory to the Mapuche struggle!

Death to the state, long live anarchy!
