Minneapolis, USA: Public Works Truck Lit on Fire in Response to Evictions

Posted on 2023/03/01 - 2023/03/01 by darknights

On the early hours of the 24th, in response to the eviction of indigenous elders, land defenders and allies from the roof depot in East Phillips, a Minneapolis public works truck near the depot was lit on fire.

Why light a truck on fire?
The city of Minneapolis continues to ignore the most vulnerable people who live here. The roof depot is an abandoned building which the city wants to demolish and use to expand the public works facility. If the depot is demolished in its current condition, it will unearth plumes of arsenic into the air. East Phillips is one of the most diverse neighborhoods of Minneapolis and is already experiencing pollution and environmental racism.

The community of East Phillips has made their demands for environmental justice known for over a year. The community wants the property converted into an urban farm. Despite overwhelming public response, the city is pushing forward with their plan. A burnt-out truck is a small price to pay to protect the health and safety of our neighbors.

We acted autonomously and encourage others to take matters into their own hands.
We stand in solidarity with comrades in Atlanta who seeking to stop the construction a cop training ground in the Weelaunee forest.

Defend the depot
Vive tortugita
Fuck 12

Weelaunee Forest/Atlanta Forest, U$A: 3 machines burned in honor of Tortuguita to defend Weelaunee

Posted on 2023/02/21 by darknights

Yesterday, it came to Our attention that an area of Weelaunee Forest next to the river, near BlackHall Studios had been clear-cut. The machines they used were left on-site, so in the early morning we came and torched an excavator, bulldozer, and a front-end-loader.

Fuck a machine. Fuck the cops. Fuck liberals who don’t get their hands dirty and try to potray our fallen comrade like some white-washed version of something It (Tortuguita preferred “It” pronouns) was NOT. We believe & hope that Tort did shoot that cop, plain & simple…

At dawn this morning a sacred fire burned in their honor – We just wish more Georgia State Patrol vehicles could have joined the inferno.

Athens, Greece: Acquittal of comrade Kostas K

Posted on 2023/02/16 by darknights

With a significant presence of comrades continued and was completed today the trial of our comrade Kostas K, for the 2007 attack on the vehicles of Minister Voulgarakis (until recently the Minister of Public Protection and with a recent transfer to the Ministry of Culture) and his entourage.

Despite the prosecution’s conviction, the comrade was acquitted by a vote of 5-2 (with the acquittal votes of the four jurors and the president).

Another episode of this ill-conceived hoax of dna excuses ended up in the trash bin, not even convincing those who fabricate them: the monkeys of state security and anti-terrorism.

No comrade is ever alone in the face of the state’s methods.

Solidarity is our weapon

Berlin, Germany: Amazon truck torched – Alfredo Libero!

Posted on 2023/02/16 - 2023/02/16 by darknights

On Saturday morning, the press reported a burned-out truck in Mitte. The cops did not report it at all. What was also not said is that it was a vehicle from Amazon. Probably for a good reason, since there seems to be an increasing number of attacks on companies and infrastructure that profit from current “crises” at the expense of the general public and the environment. Both through the digital transformation of the economy and through the establishment of green capitalism. A further spread of such acts is hardly in the sense of the police press office. In ours however already, esch.

Therefore, now we share this info to close the knowledge gap. Actually, it needs no further explanation why Amazon becomes the target of our rage. Everything that tempts us to attack the technology giant, comrades before us have already put down on paper in detail in letters of denouncement.

Paint, stones and fire against Amazon

Construction crane burned down at Amazon construction site

25 Amazon delivery trucks torched
But now that we are speaking out, we want to use the attention to address the devastating situation of Alfredo Cospito, who is being held incommunicado in Italy. Alfredo has been on hunger strike for more than 110 days in order to obtain a relaxation of the conditions of his special detention. In doing so, it seems entirely as if the Italian government is letting him die in full view of the public. A prisoner anarchist fights for some dignity and already democracy shows its true face, and this one looks a hell of a lot like fascism. Unsurprising, yet very revealing.

Alfredo Libero.

Arson in Buryatia

Arson

On the night of February 1, they attacked relay cabinets on the Ivanovo-Kostroma line. They also destroyed a traction substation near Matveev Kurgan station the day before. According to the partisans, thereby they ensured a delay in the transfer of military echelons.

On the same night of February 1 unknown people set fire to a warehouse at the GRU training ground in the settlement of Senezh in Moscow region. The duty officer of m/u 43292 appealed to the emergency services and the fire could not be beaten on their own.

On the night of February 3 an unknown partisan in the military town of Shchelkovo (Moscow region) set fire to and smashed the front window of an expensive foreign car with Z-symbols on it. It is reported that the value of the car enthusiast of the wars of aggression 4.5 million rubles.

February 4 at night, unknown guerrillas, presenting themselves as the “Green Gendarme”, attacked one of the signalling units on the railroad in Karelia. This was reported by the Freedom of Russia Legion. The guerrillas claim that this will hinder the movement of military echelons and freight trains for several days.

On the night of February 6, guerrillas attacked the wooden building of the Tunkinsk inter-district investigative department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in Buryatia. He used an entire jerry can of gasoline to set it on fire from the rear. The building caught fire very quickly. Despite the fact that the fire was soon extinguished, the rooms inside were pretty badly damaged. Unfortunately, the 56-year-old Oleg Aleksandrov from the village of Kyren was immediately detained on suspicion. Continue reading “Russia: Chronicle of Radical Resistance 1-6. 02.2023” →

Berlin, Germany: Fire in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito – Strabag excavator set on fire!

Posted on 2023/02/14 by darknights

As a sign of solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and his hunger strike against the 41bis regime, we set fire to a Strabag excavator Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg in the night between 9.2 and 10.2.

Against the society that needs prisons, from whose construction Strabag profits. Against the society which believes in a green capitalism, for which Strabag builds power plants worldwide!

It is to be welcomed that there is an international resonance, which was initiated by the mobilization of the innumerable comrades in Italy. It warms our hearts to see how the solidarity with the anarchist prisoners becomes a weapon that seeks and finds its targets worldwide. Our analyses of this society inevitably lead us to attack and overthrow it. But it is not only dry analyses that move us, we feel a deep disgust for this world with all its constraints. We share the proposals and debates aimed at an international discourse. It takes an informal gathering of enemies of the state to get and stay in motion. Internationalism can thus enable the exchange of experiences, critiques, and perspectives, and promote aggressiveness. We can literally smell the smoke that the wind from the south brings and hear the echo of the comrades shouting: “Alfredo out of the 41bis!

However, it is questionable whether Alfredo will get out of the 41bis regime in the foreseeable future and whether he will be aware of all that is happening “outside”. It is also questionable whether he will survive this showdown with authority. It seems that the die is already cast. The Italian government has said several times that it will not back down. Surely there is much more at stake for them than “just” having a dead anarchist on their conscience.

However, fighting from an anarchist perspective means much more to us than saving a single life in this acute situation. Probably Alfredo has already made his decision long ago, as it is put up for debate in the text “Anytime – Some reflections on the last months of mobilization in Italy”. However, we can take the uncompromising nature of his actions as inspiration to intensify the subversion and ensure that the echo of his struggle, now clearly heard beyond Italy’s borders, will not be silenced anytime soon. With passion and joy, and armed with our dreams, against all that prevents us from realizing them; state, government, authority, justice, capitalism and the power structure that sustains it all.

Freedom comes through fighting movement – For more state decomposition!
Solidarity with Alfredo, Juan, Anna, Ivan, Dayid, Tonio and all other rebels in the jails.

Berlin, Germany: For the 100th Hunger Strike Day, an Italian diplomatic vehicle burns

Posted on 2023/02/03 by darknights

We support the idea of decentralized actions and therefore follow the call for action week from the American South, which supports the hunger strike of Alfredo Cospito. Communication through actions and texts is an important approach to build an informal network.

With the attack on the Italian diplomatic corps in the German capital, with the targeted fire against the car number 3 of the embassy, we participate in the week of action. It was parked in Schöneberg at Barbarossa-Platz and belonged to Luigi Estero, the first Consigliere.
This act of revolutionary violence is aimed directly at those responsible for everyday brutal oppression. We want that the civil servants, the judges, the policemen, the politicians and the diplomats not have a quiet life – that they feel unsafe and that they cannot sleep in peace.
Because they are the ones who commit the political massacres, not the exploited, the oppressed or the anarchists. Blood is on the hands of the German and Italian elites who, to give just one example, use the so-called Libyan Coast Guard to murder thousands of migrants, those people who are supposed to exploit their bodies and the soil of their homeland at the lowest prices for the insane capitalism of Europe.

It is a good result that now the Italian Foreign Minister is thinking about increasing the security measures for his embassy staff. We advocate their total isolation. We send a conspiratorial wink at this point to the compas in Barcelona, who had a similar idea, breaking the windows of the Italian consulate there that same night.

Isolation switches sides. While fear grips the rulers, an idea materializes in the deeds of the anarchist movement. Alfredo Cospito is very close – real and alive – and so there is also a closeness among all the other insurgents in the jails and streets.

We salute them all and we are also especially happy to see the expansion of the attacks on forces of order, parties and corporations in Berlin.
Solidarity with Anna Beniamino, Ivan Alocco, Aldo and Lucas Hernández Valdés, Toby Shone and all the prisoners in the torture chambers of the 41 bis regime.

Freedom for all!

Spoleto, Italy: Claim for the attack on the villa of slaughterer Giorgio Del Papa, in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino

Claim for the attack on the villa of slaughterer Giorgio Del Papa, in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and Anna Beniamino

November 2006. Umbria Olii explodes and four workers die. One of many massacres in the name of profit, in a company known for its devastation of the land. But the arrogance of capital knows no limits and the boss Giorgio Del Papa will go so far as to demand 35 million euros from the families of the victims, accusing them of causing the accident.

The power of money, a huge amount, difficult even to imagine for the workers’ families, some of them migrants. The power of money that will prove to be useful, obtaining the attribution of responsibility on the workers themselves, resulting in the reduction of his sentence to four years.
Hearts full of hate, thinking of our comrades Anna Beniamino and Alfredo Cospito, we decided to give a face, a name, an address to the slogan ‘It is the State that Massacres’.

Because Anna and Alfredo risk life imprisonment for two bombs against the Carabinieri Cadets Barracks in Fossano, on June 2nd 2006, which unfortunately caused neither dead nor wounded. While the true slaughterers, the industrialists, the capitalists, are living it up in their villas.

That is why we went to pay a visit to the villa in Spoleto where the slaughterer Del Papa lives. We attacked the electric systems of his gate with fire and left left hanging an animal carcass. We’re sorry about the vampire, no human blood was found.

A small gesture to denounce the classist coherence of the Italian judiciary. For Alfredo, already 100 days on hunger strike againstr 41bis and life imprisonment without appeal.
Because let it be clear that if Alfredo dies, it’s your turn next. You can put a few prosecutors under escort, you cannot protect the entire bourgeoisie!

With this action we are not demanding justice, but we do claim revenge.
Revenge for the dead in the workplace.
Revenge for the dead in the middle of the sea.
Revenge for the dead in the prisons.
Victory or revenge for Alfredo Cospito.

Portland, Oregon, U$A: Solidarity Action With Atlanta and the Atlanta Forest Defenders

Posted on 2023/02/03 by darknights

“On 1/20/23 anarchists in Portland, Oregon went after the UPS shipping center in Portland in retaliation after a comrade was recently murdered by the Atlanta Police.

Anarchists broke somewhere between 10-15 large windows and started multiple small fires within the building. UPS is one of the biggest companies currently donating to the Cop City Project in Atlanta.

On 1/18/23 Atlanta police attempted a raid in the forest that was being protected by forest defenders and once they showed up they opened fire and killed a forest defender.

We want to express our love toward Tortuguita who was also known as Cami, as well as to all their comrades and loved ones.

Atlanta police stole a comrade and friend to many people from us on 1/18/23. few broken windows will never undo what the Atlanta police did but hopefully continued actions can bring the change that Cami wished for and hoped to see one day.

We call for more actions directly toward the companies that are donating to and funding the Cop City project in Atlanta. Forest defenders have a right to stay in the forest, and groups will continue to retaliate until the Cop City Project is cancelled.

Love from PDX to ATL”

Rome, Italy: Claim of the arson attack on five TIM telecommunications company vehicles in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, Juan Sorroche, Anna Beniamino, Ivan Alocco and all anarchist prisoners

Posted on 2023/01/31 - 2023/01/31 by darknights

We receive from anonymous email and publish:

In the early hours of the night of Monday, January 30, we carried out an incendiary action against TIM. The attack was conducted by breaking into the parking lot of one of its offices and setting fire to 5 vehicles. Tim actively collaborates in social control through the installation of the fiber optic network, cameras and electronic bracelets.

Power and its ramifications are everywhere, and anyone who wants to strike at it is spoiled for choice. Take action today, without waiting for more propitious moments or compromising, just as power rages daily and hourly against our lives, revolt must also be daily and permanent.

Let the fire of denial blaze more and more in the cities with an indomitable force to spread chaos in your world of order and repression.

Let the murderous state and the bosses know that this is only the beginning and more than a threat it is a promise.

Solidarity with Alfredo Cospito in fight against 41bis
Solidarity with Juan, Anna, Ivan and all anarchists held hostage in state jails
