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.

Bologna, Italy: Hammered an ATM and an Amazon pickup point in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, Ivan Alocco, Juan Sorroche, Anna Beniamino, Toby Shone and all the revolutionary prisoners

Posted on 2023/01/13 - 2023/01/13 by darknights

The other night we decided to hammer a BPER ATM and an Amazon pickup point.

A small gesture of solidarity with Alfredo on hunger strike since October 20 against 41bis and hostile life imprisonment. Solidarity with Thanos, Ivan, Juan, Anna, Toby and all revolutionary prisoners and anyone behind bars.

Against every jail and border. For freedom, for anarchy.

Xanthi, Greece: Responsibility claim for attack on Piraeus Bank ATM

Posted on 2022/12/08 by darknights

Another state murderous attack, just one day before December 6, when cops murdered 15-year-old student Alexis Grigoropoulos. The 16-year-old Roma, Kostas Fragoulis, was shot in the head by cops over 20 euros of unpaid petrol. Our anger will drown you!

Late in the evening of 6 December we caused material damage to the Piraeus Bank ATM in V.Konstantinou as a minimal expression of anger against the murdering state. It is clear that any targeting of a bank is a legitimate and honest act, since they, committed to capitalism and its perpetuation, suck the blood of people all over the earth. As long as we remain inactive in the war we are currently living through, we will be complicit in the rot.

THE BLOOD FLOWS WITH VENGEANCE – THE FLAME OF DECEMBER HAS NOT YET BEEN EXTINGUISHED

FIGHT TO THE END OF STATE AND CAPITAL

STRENGTH TO THOSE WHO CHOSE THE PATH OF REFUSAL AND REBELLION

Rome, Italy: Shattered windows and smashed ATMs in solidarity with Alfredo, Anna, Juan and Ivan on hunger strike

Posted on 2022/11/15 by darknights

On the night of November 12, on a street in Rome, we smashed the windows and ATMs of Unicredit, Benetton and Banca Popolare di Milano and threw firecrackers at RAI in solidarity with anarchist comrades on hunger strike. To Alfredo, Anna, Juan and Ivan goes our boundless solidarity.

A conspiratorial salutation to the Mapuche people in struggle.

Against 41 bis, against life imprisonment without parole and against any jail.
For anarchy.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for the attack at the metro station Syngrou/Fix

Posted on 2022/10/15 by darknights

In recent times we have seen the intensification of state repression which no doubt aims at the abolition of previous social and class gains. This intensification can be reflected in the violent repression of workers’ strikes, in the entry of police forces into universities, and in the expansion of the attack and repression on any form of social and class resistance (from the repeated police attacks on marches and gatherings to the recent attack on a concert in a university in Thessaloniki*). Amongst the above, another of the main peaks of this attack is taking place in Exarcheia, under the pretext of the metro stop and the redevelopment of the Strefi Hill, the state has launched an unprecedented attack in its attempt to change the political and social correlations within the neighbourhood. The constant presence of MAT riot police and the OPKE (armed SWAT style cop unit) playing the role of an occupying army in order to further territorialise the totalitarian doctrine of order and security within the neighbourhood is the most striking sign of this new strategy and the new reality that the state wants to impose.

However, what is happening in Exarcheia also has a very specific economic and class dimension, since both the metro stop and the redevelopment of the hill of Strefi are included within the more general plans of capital and the state for the reconfiguration of the urban fabric through the processes of redevelopment and gentrification, which have the sole purpose of creating new fields of profitability on the backs of the working class. The airbnb, alternative bars etc. that are popping up one after the other, in combination with the metro and the redevelopment of the Strefi and the army of occupation that is trying to suppress any form of resistance create the necessary conditions for the methodical transformation of the neighbourhood into a politically sterile alternative centre of consumption.

Patras, Greece: Responsibility claim for arson actions in solidarity with the anarchist hunger striker Giannis Michailidis

Posted on 2022/07/27 by darknights

We take political responsibility for a series of arson attacks that took place in the city of Patras, in solidarity with our comrade anarchist and hunger striker Giannis Michailidis.

  •  On Saturday morning (23/7), at 3:30 am, we carried out an arson attack on a motorbike of a well-known asphalt worker of the city, on Korinthou Street.
  • On Sunday morning (24/7), at 2:30 a.m., we carried out an arson attack on a Eurobank ATM in El. Stratiotou.

The comrade anarchist and hunger striker Giannis Michailidis has been fighting a tough battle with the capitalist system and its representatives for the last two months, demanding his immediate release from prison, which he is entitled to by law from December 2021. Having completed 8.5 years of imprisonment in the penitentiary hellholes of the Greek state, for his subversive action and his militant dignity, he puts his own body as a barrier against a judicial system of arbitrariness and vindictiveness. With indomitable stubbornness and self-denial, he takes on an entire mechanism of exploitation and oppression, demanding that his demand be met.

It is a given, however, that in this class structured society where the Law and the Order of the Powerful reign supreme, that no other treatment could be given to a militant, who over the years has stood by the side of the outcasts of this world through his words and actions. It is a given that he could not receive the same treatment from our oppressors as the child rapist Lignadis, the unrepentant murderous cop Korkoneas, the real estate magnate Hortaria and every well-bred child of the bourgeois system.

The bourgeois justice as a basic pillar of the capitalist system of production, reflects in a provocative and overt way, that it will be omnipresent, to safeguard the interests of the bourgeoisie, to perpetuate the capitalist relations of exploitation and the disciplining of those who belong to the bottom of the social-class pyramid. Its blatant class bias is therefore not some kind of deviation from its institutional role but its very essence.

Our comrade Giannis Michailidis, who is at the breaking point of his multi-day strike, needs the solidarity and support of the entire subversive movement. Against the callousness of the judicial mafia, the methodologies and the attempted vindictiveness of the state and capital, the world of struggle has the duty to stand up to the circumstances and raise the gauntlet, intercepting the orchestrated climate of terrorism with massive and dynamic marches, solidarity movements, aggressive actions and sabotage.

Freedom to the comrade anarchist Giannis Michailidis, hunger striker since 23/5!

Thessaloniki, Greece: Responsibility claim for hammer attacks in solidarity with anarchist comrade Giannis Michailidis

Posted on 2022/07/10 - 2022/07/10 by darknights

On Friday night, July 8th, we carried out a raid with hammers on the policed, touristic and “gentrified” centre of Thessaloniki on Tsimiski Street. We chose to attack a central store of the AB Vassilopoulos chain, which, apart from its constant stance on the implementation of the most neoliberal dictates in the labour regime of the chain’s branches, has taken the current intensity of the capitalist crisis as an opportunity to make a fortune at the expense of society by blowing up the prices of basic goods. We also attacked a branch of elpedison, which, respectively, is ensuring a rapid increase in its profits in the context of the current crisis, bringing poor households to their knees. Finally, we hit a Eurobank branch by breaking its ATMs.

This raid was carried out in solidarity with the anarchist hunger striker G. Michailidis. The comrade is on the 47th day of his hunger strike and while his health condition is getting worse day by day, the state and the judicial mechanisms continue to prolong his vindictive detention. The comrade has been entitled to be released from prison since December and yet every request for his release has been repeatedly rejected. Thus, while a state murder is in full swing, the establishment media are concealing both the struggle of G. Michailidis’ struggle and his just demands, as well as the movements of the solidarity movement, reinforcing the state’s death policy, paying off their political debts for the Petsas list*.

We are going through a period when dozens of people are committing suicide, unable to pay the electricity bill, unable to cope with the unbearable cost of living and meeting their basic needs, and the first homes of poor families are being auctioned off, those who are fighting to defend university asylum are beaten, migrants are murdered by the security forces at the borders, political prisoners barricade their own lives in order to claim their rights. At the same time, the state and capital demonstrate every day in the most violent way that they are not only indifferent to the social base, but that the bleeding of the social base, together with the repression of those who resist, are necessary conditions for ensuring their domination.

We therefore stand against the “preventive detention” of G. We stand against the G. Michailidis’s “preventive detention”, which demonstrates the real intentions of the state: the vengeful and exhausting treatment of those who struggle and at the same time the preventive terrorizing of those who will inevitably be radicalized in the face of the oppression of their lives by the state and the bosses. That is why we have to realize that the struggle of G. Michailidis’ struggle is a struggle of the whole society and we must show our solidarity by every means, from marches and rallies to occupations and attacks. Because the defense of political prisoners and their struggles should and can be another stone, a driving force in the direction of the struggle for the total overthrow of the capitalist system.

IMMEDIATE RELEASE OF THE ANARCHIST HUNGER STRIKER GIANNIS MICHAILIDIS

IN THE FACE OF THE DETERIORATION OF THE COMRADE’S HEALTH WE WILL RESPOND WITH VIOLENCE AGAINST THE VIOLENCE OF CAPITAL AND STATE DEATH POLICY

WE SUPPORT THE NATIONWIDE SOLIDARITY MARCH IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE COMRADE, SATURDAY 9/7 – 18.00 IN LAMIA

Thessaloniki, Greece: Arson attack on Eurobank ATM

Posted on 2022/06/25 - 2022/06/25 by darknights

The anarchist hunger striker Giannis Michailidis is on his 33rd day of hunger strike and is being treated in Lamia hospital with his health condition being extremely poor.

The state, exhausting its vindictiveness, is pushing the hunger striker into a life-or-death struggle, a struggle for freedom or submission. The games played by the Ministry of Propaganda and the Amfissa Judicial Council, which for the umpteenth time rejected the comrade’s request for temporary release, clearly demonstrate that their “correction” against the declared enemies of the state and capital is extermination and torture.

We, for our part, stand on the side of dignity and freedom in the face of the world of oppression, imprisonment and power. We take responsibility as a minimal sign of solidarity with the struggle of our comrade and in the context of the international day of action for the arson of a Eurobank ATM in Agios Pavlos Thessaloniki in the early hours of Friday 24/6.

LIBERATION TO ANARCHIST HUNGER STRIKER GIANNIS MICHAILIDIS
