Because there is a whole world to destroy. Text in solidarity with comrades Alfredo, Anna, Juan and Ivan.
“For me, “informality” is above all friendship and love between comrades who share everything, even disappointments (inevitable in human relationships, because of their fickle nature). Brothers and sisters in war united by a passion: the destruction of the existent that is sufficient by itself and does not need the constraint of an organization. A life lived intensely, a handful of comrades who make loyalty and respect for the given word an insurmountable fortress, always allowing themselves to resist.”
– Alfredo Cospito
The anarchic endeavor travels thousands of kilometers, destroys languages and borders in the incessant war against power, in this journey we weave networks of conspiracy and we twin with comrades who have decided of their own free will to give practical impetus to their denials.
In all the history of propaganda by the fact we have never been forced, dragged or manipulated to strike blows against the enemy, always from our own conscience and will is that Anarchy has opened beautiful paths of confrontation and that will not change.
Far from hesitations and contemplative postures towards life and its rapid advance, we find brothers and sisters and comrades at long distances, accomplices that make Anarchy an active giant with vast experiences in the new anarchist urban guerrilla. Of these comrades are Alfredo, Anna, Juan and Ivan, activists, dangerous and unyielding in the streets and in the prisons of capital.
Our words emerge from action and are a wink of complicit brotherhood with those who have been trapped by power and who today make their bodies a trench of war. In special solidarity for comrade Alfredo Cospito who faces a new battle, in a new planning and action against the beast of 41bis.

“The question of the issues, the lever for awakening the insurgent power of the world is therefore Internationalism.” (Alfredo Cospito)
“Because for those who love life, to react when the question of life and death is at stake is an act of duty, from Monday 7 November I am starting a hunger strike” ( Anna Beniamino)
Anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito has been on a hunger strike to the death in Italian prisons since 20 October, demanding that the 41bis solitary isolation regime applied against him be lifted.
41bis is a sensory solitary isolation regime that constitutes torture and is one of the harshest special detention regimes in the European Union. The Italian state’s attack on Alfredo Cospito is not simply a state choice to eliminate an unrepentant anarchist guerrilla. It symbolises the full frontal assault on the choice of armed struggle and is carried out through anti-terrorist policies and special detention regimes.
The comrade’s strike is therefore both a struggle against torture and special conditions of detention and a battle so that the defence of the choice of armed struggle remains relevant and is not defeated through the murderous silence imposed on Alfredo Cospito.

On the night of November 12-13 in Taggia (Sanremo), 6.5 litres of petrol set fire to the vehicles and destroyed the MARR company warehouse.
MARR = profits on the skin of prisoners
41 bis = prison = torture
Let’s give strength to Alfredo, Anna, Ivan, Juan and Toby!
For Anarchy!

Statement claiming responsibility for the explosive attack against the central offices of the chemical industry Oxiquim S.A., in solidarity with anarchist Alfredo Cospito, from New Anarchist Subversion – Alex Núñez Cell / FAI (Santiago, Chile, November 28, 2022)
(Santiago, Chile) ATTACK WITH EXPLOSIVE DEVICE AGAINST OXIQUIM S.A.
With anarchist attitude, the central offices of Oxiquim S.A. in the municipality of Providencia, Santiago, Chile, were attacked.
The high-powered device did not explode because of a solvable technical problem, so we are aiming for more.
Oxiquim, a giant of the Chilean chemical industry and a direct supplier to the country’s major extractive industries in the forestry, mining, agroindustrial and fishing sub-areas.
Oxiquim, a company headed by Fernando Barros Tocornal, a businessman with a high level of influence in Chilean politics, a direct advocate of dictator Pinochet, former president Sebastián Piñera, and a board member of the animal exploitation company Agrosuper.
Oxiquim, directly responsible for the pollution and ecocide of the waters, territory and inhabitants of Quintero-Puchuncaví, defended by the Chilean Navy during protests against the so-called “sacrifice zones.”
This is a new act of revenge against the perpetrators of Earth devastation and destruction. It’s a new violent action by anarchist hands in permanent conspiracy and revolt. It’s a new attack justified by the existence of domination. It is another insurrectionary action in the no-holds-barred struggle for Total Liberation.
Against technological industrial complex that seeks to exploit and dominate all forms of life, WE ARE SELVAGE FORCE. Against illusions of democracy and against all governments and those responsible for Earth devastation, WE PROPOSE CHAOS AND ANARCHY.
We want that the news of this action reaches eyes and ears of imprisoned anarchist comrades, claiming solidarity as the continuity of the attack against power outside and inside prisons.
With particular complicity we stand with the vegan anarcho-nihilists arrested after the anti-speciesist attack against the animal exploitation company Susaron and with anarchist prisoners Joaquín García, Mónica Caballero and Francisco Solar. We also salute the high school students imprisoned for the anarchist uprisings in Santiago high schools and all those who from prison resist and struggle against the state and capital.
We send strength to Boris, Ivan and the anarchist prisoners in France. Strength for Erick King and the anarchist prisoners in the USA. Strength for Toby Shone in England. Strength for Gabriel and the anarchist prisoners in Spain. Strength for Giannis Michailidis and for anarchists imprisoned in Greece, Russia, the Czech Republic and around the world.
Strength for all anarchists who take action.
This attack is part of the international campaign of solidarity with anarchist prisoner Alfredo Cospito, on hunger strike against Italian state-imposed isolation. Alfredo, this is for you.
For anarchist sedition against every expression of civilized domination!
By all means against authority! With caution and courage!
To multiply anarchist attacks against power!

Anarchist Ivan Alocco has ended the hunger strike (France, December 1, 2022)
Ivan, incarcerated in Villepinte prison (near Paris), lets us know that he has ended his hunger strike. Today, December 1st, he started feeding again, after 35 days of hunger strike in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito’s struggle.
He is well and sends a strong hug in solidarity to Alfredo, Juan, Anna, Toby and everyone outside the prisons.
On Thursday, November 24th, during the interrogation by the investigating judge, Ivan made a brief statement and then said he had nothing to declare in response to the judge’s questions. His statement, as far as we know, was more or less this:
“I am an anarchist. I support every act that goes against the state and capital and towards social and individual emancipation, including the acts of attack of which I am accused in this proceeding.
I am currently on hunger strike, in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito, a comrade imprisoned in Italy, in solitary confinement, in the prison regime called 41 bis”. He then complained about the repeated blocking of his mail, which isolates him even more.
Meanwhile, he received some mail.
The investigating judge used his statement, among other things, to justify her unfavourable opinion of the request for release, saying that the comrade “does not question his acts and ideology”.

Today, Nov. 26, 2022, the performance of “Hamlet” at the Argentina Theater in Rome was interrupted. Despite the fact that the theater workers turned into a full-fledged security service to protect the interests of the bosses, we determinedly managed to go on stage, unfurl a banner that read “There is something rotten in Italy: no to 41 bis,” throw leaflets, and read part of the communiqué, which, below, we quote in full:
We are here because Alfredo Cospito is in 41 bis. 41 bis is a detention regime specifically designed to annihilate the individual. We are here because Alfredo has been on hunger strike for more than a month. We are not here to cry over an injustice suffered by our anarchist comrade, because it is not. Just as it is not a legal aberration. It is the logical reaction of the democratic-state to the attacks launched by Alfredo. First physical, with the wounding of the bureaucrat Adinolfi, at the time CEO of Ansaldo Nucleare and for which he finished serving the sentence to which he was sentenced. Then with the words with which, while in high-security detention, he contributed to debates in the anarchist movement. The 41 bis to Alfredo is not only revenge, it is also a willingness to take away the word. Because speech, when it does not remain a mere rhetorical exercise: it is a weapon.
Alfredo has been on hunger strike for more than a month to get his downgrade and against hostile life imprisonment.
He has been joined by anarchists and prisoners Juan Sorroche, Ivan Alocco and Anna Beniamino. They use the hunger strike because in the condition of isolation in which they find themselves it is, perhaps, the only form of struggle available to them. With strength and courage they put their safety, their lives on the line … while you are sitting here watching a sham and do not realize that everything is. Daily something is taken from you, for the moment, on you it has no consequences and then you turn away. Blinded by your privileges you think democracy is the best possible system and you look indignantly at exotic nations where people are trampled. You want truth and justice for Giulio Regeni and you don’t give a shit about the 14 deaths made in prison on March 8, 2020 by Italian democracy. You don’t give a shit about the 80 prison suicides that have occurred since January. You don’t give a shit about the migrant concentration camps scattered around the beautiful country.
We have not come to raise your awareness. If you still sleep soundly-we spoil your fun.
We break the social peace in which you bask.
Death to the state!
Long live Anarchy!

I will not deny it, in every action that someone salutes us as anarchist prisoners, both in Italy and the rest of the world, my heart fills with joy.”

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.
