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.
Greetings to the anarchist from the Parkbank trial, who is imprisoned again in Hamburg
In memory of Tortuguita, who was shot by cops on January 18 during a raid on the StopCopCity occupation (Atlanta, USA). Rest in Power!
Long live anarchy!

Hunger Strike of Anarchists and Fighting Prisoners in Solidarity with Alfredo Cospito
The 41-bis prison regime is the completion of the prison structure into a masqueraded death sentence. The execution, in this case, does not end in one moment, like with a gunshot, the tightening of the noose, the application of electrical current or the injection of poison into the body, rather it lasts a lifetime in a state of social coma, in a state of non-world. And so, spread through time. Out of this world, the death sentence has evaded history, just like the state pursues oblivion for all the prisoners of the social war who are buried alive in the state of 41-bis. The 41-bis regime has already murdered one fighter, Diana Blefari Melazzi.
The 41-bis regime and the law about “massacre” are the legacy of the european counter-revolution from the time of Piazza Fontana (Strage di piazza Fontana). This civil war never ended. The states, and particularly the Italian one, carry on the counter-revolution so that the flame may never flare up again. All the systems follow, step by step, the examples first introduced as special warfare, e.g. the white cells of West Germany, the F-type prisons in Turkey and the FIES prisons in Spain to the Type-C prisons in Greece or the new high security prison system A.A.; the still active Hitler-inspired law about indefinite extension of one’s sentence on “preventative” grounds, by which comrade Thomas Meyer Falk is being held for another 10 years (25 in total) in Freiburg prison in Germany, to the different methods of extorting declarations of repentance, and from Asinara to Imrali.
Anarchist Alfredo Cospito is fighting for the flame to flare up again. Let’s reassert the fight of the comrade.
It is our duty to defend in deed the battle that Alfredo Cospito is fighting. A struggle for and against time itself. This particular hunger strike does not concern only the comrades in the italian territory, but it is internationalist, and so the star of internationalist solidarity must shine on the side of Alfredo Cospito and all those who are fighting from within a special prison regime. From Greece to every point in the planet – for all those fighting for freedom.
Because defeat is not captivity, but losing one’s faith in the possibility of wining. So, we are collectively going on a hunger strike, according to each one’s capacity, so that we may stand by the side of anarchist revolutionary Alfredo Cospito, but also, against the death regime of 41-bis.
At the same time the struggle against the new prison code in greek prisons is continuing.
