Athens, Greece: Taking responsibility for an incendiary spree and calling for an incendiary campaign by Arsonists Incendiary Archers (ΕΜΠΡΗΣΤΕΣ ΤΟΞΟΒΟΛΟΙ)

Athens, Greece: Taking responsibility for an incendiary spree and calling for an incendiary campaign

We do not intend to dwell on yet another great political analysis of what is happening today. The time for that is over. All that remains now is our actions. This life is not sustainable. A large part of society knows it and is finding out more and more each day, even if it tries to ignore it or put the blame elsewhere. Pandemic, war, impoverishment. Economic crises on top of economic crises. Depravation of life. The State and capital march unmolested and trample our lives. They have declared war on us. We simply respond with the means at our disposal. We know who stands against us. The State and its minions, the petty bourgeoisie, the nouveau riche, the bosses. We are coming for you! We will attack you until the cops are forced to guard every house, every shed, every car.

But we come these days for another reason. Comrade Giannis Michailidis is on his 16th day of a hunger strike demanding his release. The State vindictiveness he is facing has to do with the unrelenting attitude he has taken all these years inside and outside prison. He is part of an all-out attack launched by the neoliberal Greek State, trying to crush everything that goes against it and stifle all revolutionary memory.

Logics and practices like Giannis’ are the ones that the State wants to keep out of trouble once and for all because in the previous years they created a headache and exposed it. We ought to preserve and adopt them. We ought to create a revolutionary perspective again, make Anarchy dangerous again.

We therefore take responsibility for the incendiary attack on:

a Porsche in vironas  at midnight on 30/5/5

5 luxury cars of a dealership in Amfithea Avenue at dawn on 1/6.

a van of the Vechro construction company in Kaisariani at midnight 4/6

We call for an incendiary campaign on luxury vehicles and corporate vehicles in solidarity with Giannis MichaIlidis.

Santiago, Chile: Arson attack against the Club de Huasos y Rodeo Gil Letelier + Grupo de Respuesta Animal’s claim.

Posted on 2022/06/03 - 2022/06/03 by darknights

In the early morning of May 26, 2022, anonymous hands set fire to the Gil Letelier Huasos and Rodeo Club in the commune of Pedro Aguirre Cerda, Santiago, in addition to leaving pamphlets and bullets as a threat.

A few days later the action is attributed by the Animal Response Group to different counterinformation pages as a coordinated action and in conjunction with the attack on the gendarmerie building by the “Célula Insurreccional 2 de Noviembre” (November 2nd Insurrectional Cell).

Claiming responsibility for the arson attack against the Gil Letelier Huasos and Rodeo Club.

“I decided to get involved in serious criminal activities, after a serious reflection that I took as an individual.” Rod Coronado, Animal Liberation Front warrior.

Under cover of the moon and previously organized, in unison with the actions of the “Célula Insurreccional 2 de Noviembre” that attacked with an explosive device the building of the ” Circle of Retired Gendarmerie Officials”, we: attacked, set fire to and disabled one of the torture centers for animals, called medialuna. Where the rodeo is practiced, national sport of this disgusting country, which consists of two riders on horseback, whipping a steer against a wall, until it causes bruises, fractures, internal spills and even death.

This medialuna of the “Club de Huasos y Rodeo Gil Letelier”, was (hahaha) located in Carlos Valdovinos street #2951, commune of Pedro Aguirre Cerda, Santiago.

We used a large amount of fuel for our task. Vulnerating the security of the premises and the bastard police, but prepared in case we had to face as equals with vigilantes, citizen heroes or pacos. Which, fortunately for them, did not happen.

We prioritized action; of sabotage, threat and execution. Fed up with a scene of supposed animal liberation fighters, who settle for an alternative diet, harmless words and belligerent network posts.

Bologna, Italy: Two repeaters set on fire

Posted on 2022/06/03 - 2022/06/03 by darknights

“Social war on state war,” this was the writing left on the night of May 22 near 2 repeaters set on fire near Bologna. A minimal gesture of active insubordination to a state that lives on wars and massacres and today accuses anarchists of massacre, that sends weapons but flaunts itself as a bearer of peace, that legitimizes the use of torture through the 41bis regime. We act, because for 2 years they have been intermittently locking us in, blackmailing us and taking away our ability to deal on the basis of free choices with what was happening. All to run the money machine of capitalism. And today we find ourselves the rich richer, the poor poorer and society more alienating, judgmental and suspicious. Now, with war, it happens again: emergency, national unity, sacrifices, because the bosses, beyond their country, have to assert and proceed with their interests, on the skin of those who are under the bombs, those who go to jail for protests, those who impoverish. If we don’t want the war they are waging on us to make the world an unlivable place, it’s time to agitate, to fight back and strike even unpredictably because they must know that in front of their plans there are those who are immobile and silent and do not want to be.

Atlanta, USA: Atlanta Police Foundation’s “At Promise Center” Set On Fire

Posted on 2022/06/03 by darknights

The “At Promise Center” is a “youth center” funded by the Atlanta Police Foundation. According to a report in corporate media, a window of the building was smashed, and the side of the building was set on fire. The following is a communiqué, submitted anonymously by email:

On the morning of the 27th we set fire to the Atlanta Police Foundation’s Westside “At Promise Center”.

This was the day before the two year anniversary of the burning of the third precinct in Minneapolis.

Fuck The Police.

Berlin, Germany: Burning of Hertz truck – not only for hunger striker Michailidis

Posted on 2022/06/01 - 2022/06/01 by darknights

We use simple means to sabotage the enemy’s infrastructure. That the car rental company Hertz is an enemy became known not only after an attack on their branch* and further fires of their vehicle fleet in Athens. Not only the Greek police is equipped by Hertz with vehicles at preferential conditions, but also in other states active and former cops and military are supported according to self-advertisement.

Hertz is one of the companies that force the constant need for mobility. Everything and everyone must always be immediately available everywhere. Delivery services, rental vehicles and Uber now dominate traffic in cities. Along the way, they create data collections about moving things and people for the police’s tracing computers, Hertz also by filming drivers while they drive.

In the social war and in the war state against state, we stand flagless on the side of the oppressed against the oppressors and Hertz stands on the side of power, sometimes under the Greek flag in the jeeps of OPKE, sometimes under the US flag on the trucks of the National Guard or under the flag of capital on their vans, with which they profit in Germany from the compulsion of the citizens to constantly move to another place from expensive apartments.

On the night of May 25, we set fire to a Hertz truck in the northern Berlin district of Reinickendorf as a minimal sign of our solidarity for Giannis Michailidis, who has been on hunger strike in Malandrinos prison since May 23.

We also wish Lina, who has been in pre-trial detention for 18 months, much strength and freedom.

At the same time, our action is in the framework of similar acts around the world that burn to ashes everything that can be useful for the war.

… until the destruction of the last cage. (A)

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim – Incendiary attack on General Post Office vehicles

Posted on 2022/05/27 - 2022/05/27 by darknights

For more than a decade we have been experiencing the invasion of capital on our lives, through the neoliberal restructuring of the relations of production. The cycle that opened during the period of the memoranda has never closed, but instead the state and the bosses are upgrading and deepening their domination and exploitation to this day.

The present condition should not be superficially assessed by the movement as a setback in relation to a social democratic period of a different balance of forces, workers’ conquests and gains. In fact, the previous period finally prepared the ground for the current selection. Social democracy, as the last political stage of the capitalist model of production, aims at securing the necessary consensus needed by the political system to validate the continuous and intensifying capitalist restructurings. The social and political assimilation of the working class has taken place decades ago since the radical and subversive movements retreated by surrendering to the welfare states, institutional trade unionism and finally abandoning the revolutionary perspective.

The mosaic that composes the contemporary reality in Western societies places the proletarian struggle in a symbolic position of workers’ mobilizations and demands. By recognizing the workers as the only subject of its conduct, they exclude those most affected by the capitalist juggernaut, that is, those excluded from the capitalist means of survival, labour, as well as those who are even lower down. As long as this body is excluded from the class struggle the threat of privatisation and individualisation of a struggle, which inevitably takes the form of resistance and simple survival and the dissipation of our misery, takes on flesh and blood. Solidarity among all the oppressed is a necessary ingredient for overthrow and emancipation.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim – Arson of a National Technical University vehicle

Posted on 2022/05/27 - 2022/05/27 by darknights

ANNOUNCEMENT – CALL FOR A CAMPAIGN OF ACTION AGAINST THE UNIVERSITY POLICE

WHY WE BURNED THE OFFICIAL CAR USED BY THE RECTOR ANDREAS BOUDOUVIS FOR HIS INTERNAL MOVEMENTS WITHIN THE UNIVERSITY PREMISES

On May 12, the Council of State effectively upheld the law on the University Police since, as stated in its decision, neither academic freedom nor the autonomy of Higher Education Institutions is violated. The Council of State’s decision argues, inter alia, that there are important reasons of security and public order according to which it is deemed necessary to have the universities guarded by the police. Is the Council of State competent to admonish and defend values such as freedom and morality? Would the Council of State do well to resolve its internal issues first and foremost and leave aside the public security issues at a time when its former Vice-President and President of the Third Department, Panagiotis Efstratiou, is involved in a case of cocaine use and trafficking among minors? We do not expect anything different from the Council of State, the Supreme Court and their courts, which are rife with corruption and scandals, which wash away businessmen, politicians, big business and other scoundrels without a trace of shame at the same time as society is sinking into poverty and misery. The most recent and striking example, moreover, concerns the – beyond all provocation – cover-up of the rapists of Georgia Bika, where the scum of the well-known multinational rushed to cover up in the most blatant way the rape of the militant Georgia. Words are superfluous. An instrument of cynical execution of governmental dictates, the judiciary is humiliated in the courtrooms, the corrupt system rules them undisturbed and the fairy tales about separation of powers just make the big picture even more provocative.Surely the answer for the University Police Corps will not be given by the Council of State. The best and most targeted answer will be given by the student movement itself, the world of struggle, the anarchist and radical space, the parts of the militant left and the part of the progressive space that must finally put a brake on arbitrariness and authoritarianism. We are convinced that a mosaic of actions will unfold in the coming period, from symbolic actions to more dynamic actions that will cancel this bill in practice and why not put on the table the issue of self-organization and subversion not only within the universities but also in the whole society as a whole. Let all the schools be closed with occupations, let students and teachers with basic self-respect abstain from classes, let mass demonstrations take place all over Greece, let all the cops who will staff the new body be targeted.

Chile: Communique for comrade Kuyi

Posted on 2022/05/27 by darknights

After a new commemoration of the death of Mauricio Morales, students of the Liceo de Aplicación (Application High School) carried out an incendiary march with barricades, memory and combat on May 23.

It begins with the burning of a bus in Cumming con la Alameda and ends with two arrested, one of them released without charges but with constant harassment and monitoring by the management of the Liceo de Aplicación. The second comrade on May 24 is left in the hands of Sename for three months while the investigation lasts and then he would be imprisoned with the charges of frustrated homicide to the passengers and bus driver, threats with a firearm to the driver, anti-terrorist law, burning the bus and also the lawsuits of the State and the RedBus company. All these charges add up to at least 10 years.

In the face of this we call to continue the combat and street struggle demanding the immediate freedom of our comrade Kuyi.

NEITHER BROKEN NOR REPENTANT

KUYI TO THE STREET

Santiago, Chile: White Overalls comrade arrested in connection with the burning of a Transantiago bus

Posted on 2022/05/27 by darknights

On Monday, May 25, different street confrontations took place in the framework of a new commemoration of the death of comrade Mauricio Morales. From the Ex Pedagogico, the Instituto Nacional and the Liceo de Aplicaciones.

It was in the incendiary outbreak from the Liceo de Aplicaciones that the police of the sector managed to hide and then attack the encapuchados (hooded ones) who were setting fire to a bus in the middle of the Alameda, managing to arrest a comrade in white overalls. The action is captured by the surveillance cameras of the sector and is widely reported by the press.
While the bored conspiracy theorists fantasize and rave about policemen “disguised” as encapuchados in white overalls.

The detained friend, is 16 years old and is formalized by the North Central Prosecutor’s Office, so that later the 7th Court of Guarantee decreed 90 days of investigation in “provisional internment”, that is to say, locked up in the SENAME (National Service for Minors).

To leave no one alone. To fight for the liberation of comrade Kuyi!
