Leipzig, Germany: Anti-State-Attack in solidarity with the hunger strikers

Posted on 2023/01/21 - 2023/01/21 by darknights

Our small cell of anarchists decided to attack as our declaration of solidarity with Alfredo Cospito and the other hungerstrikers around the world. On the 11th January we damaged two buildings of the state in Leipzig. One is the citizens administration and the other is “Support”-center for criminal youth. Both represent institutions the state uses to control us. We consider the state our enemy that stands between us and our liberation, so we have to attack it relentlessy.

On our minds this night was the way the italian state tortures Alfredo Cospito. We see the fight in the prisons around the world and wanted to support the hunger strikers, too. Your writing and your actions as part of the Black International were always very similar with how we like anarchy for our self. Anarchy as the attack of every authority without compromise. We will keep doing that as long as we are free!

The 11th January was also the day that the subversive part of the activists in Luetzerath called for an action day. On our way back from the action we saw a car of one of the biggest housing-corporations in Leipzig – “Kühne Immobilien”. In solidarity with the brave defenders of Luetzerath we destroyed their car, too. The climate movement could learn a lot from Cospitos actions. What a dream it would be to hear of the detonation of a bomb in front of the police station in Aachen or the kneeshot for the CEO of “RWE”. Maybe we will get there in Germany at some point.

One night later in leipzig anarchists burned 6 cars from Hertz in solidarity with Cospito! That is music in our ears! https://knack.news/4783

Power to all prisoners! Free them all!

Berlin, Germany: You are the crisis – Fleet of climate killer and crisis profiteer AMAZON set on fire – Solidarity with Lützerath and the prisoners on hunger strike

Posted on 2023/01/19 - 2023/01/19 by darknights

In the early morning hours of January 16, 2023, we gained access to a well-secured area in the Germaniastraße in Berlin-Tempelhof and took 25 Amazon Prime vehicles out of circulation using incendiary devices. A fire of solidarity with the squatters in Lützerath and the prisoners on hunger strike.

The consumer mania on Black Friday and the lucrative Christmas business are over. The pompous charity and the little bit of contemplation give way to the usual routine of everyday life. The elbows are again extended to be able to exist in the competition of the present society. Inflation and the rising cost of living apparently defying the commodity rush and the associated plundering of the planet and its resources continues unperturbed in the new year and fills the coffers of the crisis winners of the online trade. Amazon’s monopoly position and extensive business model have long revealed it to be a dependency factor for many. But the company stands for much more than just flushing products onto the market at rock-bottom prices.

Your thoughts and feelings are worth their weight in gold

The IT giant’s technological developments point to a bleak future of a dystopian surveillance and control society. Amazon, as a driving force in the establishment of digital capitalism, is not only permanently changing the economy, but also everyday life, social behavior and even our ways of thinking. Artificial intelligences and algorithms are able to contr ol and manipulate needs. Calculations that can be derived from this are already shaping today what will be made into money tomorrow. With a wide range of products and technological infrastructure (servers), the company is pushing into more and more areas of life to satisfy its insatiable hunger for data. Be it through the surveillance software Amazon Ring, which acts as an all-seeing eye guarding the properties of the rich and – now also installed in vehicles – subjects the environment to permanent monitoring. By the voice assistance Alexa, which lurks as ears of the AI in the living rooms and bedrooms and attends even the most intimate moments. By means of facial recognition programs and sensors that are supposed to interpret emotions and direct customers through the self-pay stores of Amazon-Go. Or with a variety of developments in the fields of health and biotechnology to capture everything physical and break it down into numbers. Amazon knows that anyone who has large amounts of information and data at their disposal and can translate the present into mathematical dimensions also has the power to influence the future to their own advantage.

Leipzig, Germany: Arson attack against Hertz vehicles in solidarity with anarchist prisoners

Posted on 2023/01/19 by darknights

Cheap thrills

 

Come on, come on, put the mask on
It’s wednesday night and I won’t be long

Gotta do my hair, put my gloves on
It’s wednesday night and I won’t be long

‘Til I hit the target, hit the target
I got all I need
No, I ain’t got cash, I ain’t got cash
But I got you, baby

Baby, I don’t need dollar bills to have fun tonight
(I love cheap thrills)
Baby, I don’t need dollar bills to have fun tonight
(I love cheap thrills)
But I don’t need no money
As long as I can feel the heat
I don’t need no money
As long as it keeps burning

(Cheap Thrills, Sia & Sean Paul)

With this earworm in mind and inspired by the prisoners in Hamburg, in Rome and in Athens, we attacked Hertz with fire on the night of January 12. Hertz cooperates with the enemies of our freedom and must pay for it.

In solidarity with the prisoners on hunger strike, Alfredo, Ivan, Thanos, and with the 11 prisoners from Turkey. For all the anarchist prisoners imprisoned by the state and for all the others who continue to fight outside.

Greetings go to the people who militantly defend Lützerath

For an international solidarity full of hate and passion!

Until the next parking lot.

Anarchists

Leipzig, Germany: SPIE & MIELE Vans Set on Fire – Freedom for our Comrades!

Posted on 2022/11/13 by darknights

During the night from 31.10. to 01.11. we set fire to SPIE and MIELE vans in the south of Leipzig. SPIE has been known as a prison profiteer for years. The company is involved in both the construction and operation of prisons worldwide.

For us, MIELE is representative of German imperialism in Greece. The appliance manufacturer has previously been the target of attacks by the Revolutionary Organization November 17 there.

Our hearts burn for all the rebels in the dungeons of the state who continue their struggle. They burn for Alfredo and Juan who are on hunger strike in Italy. They burn for Giannis Michailidis, who was on hunger strike from May to July this year and unfortunately had to suspend it without “success”.

Freedom for Anna, Juan, Giannis and Alfredo!
For anarchy!

Leipzig, Germany: DB relay antenna burned down – Attack militarism!

Posted on 2022/05/09 by darknights

We attacked the Deutsche Bahn as part of the logistics of war in Europe. We have not forgotten that this company has been involved in arms deliveries for years (even if at the moment it is trying to whitewash its image with “humanitarian” deliveries to Ukraine). In particular, every day our friends in Rojava are killed with weapons delivered by the DB. There is a close cooperation between the DB and the fascist regime of Erdogan.

So, on the night of 28-29 April, we set fire to a DB antenna in Markkleeberg [town in the southern suburbs of Leipzig; NdAtt.]. The line where the antenna is located was and still is used for arms deliveries. We are trying to oppose the current logic of war with our means and we want the material damage to be as great as possible. When this line is not used to transport military vehicles, it is used to send cars, coal and other devastating raw materials all over the world.

What also motivates us is the attempt to finally get out of the helplessness that has existed at least since the Covid-19 epidemic. The sabotage of war materials does not seem to be a common practice and moreover it is discredited by the usual discourse of the bourgeois left (a la “Of course Ukraine should receive weapons – the free world is defended there!”).

We don’t believe in the “vanguard”, but if we could motivate other people to carry out sabotage, it would obviously give us joy.
Let the smoke of our fire billow towards Munich, where an investigation for criminal conspiracy has been launched [Article §129 of the German Criminal Code, NdAtt.], including a search warrant.

Let’s attack militarism!
For anarchy!

 

[Ingredients and instructions:
One liter bottle, with 2/3 motor oil and 1/3 gasoline.
One liter bottle of gasoline.
We lit all of this with a half-liter bottle of gasoline to which were attached fire starters, with plastic cable ties.
We put it all on the bundles of cables that run from the control cabinet to the tower. That said: if you’re in a busy area, use delayed starters].

Leipzig, Germany: Parts for electric cars are scarce – let’s stop the cars of the city police!

Posted on 2022/02/02 by darknights

In order to break our political stagnation, due to the Coronavirus epidemic, we went out on the night of January 24th.
We decided to set fire to several vehicles of the municipal police – parked in the parking lot of the city hall, in Ossietzky street*.

We wanted to oppose the arming of the control and repression organs, which is linked to the pandemic situation.

If we look at the last years, we see a significant strengthening of the municipal police force.

The tightening of the police laws and the continuing crisis due to the pandemic are giving (have given) them more and more competences. We can see how they are “policing”. In an increasingly authoritarian and violent way.

It is the municipal police who impose violence when we have to be restricted in our so-called free time, outside of work.

Because the measures taken to curb the pandemic are intended to forcibly maintain our ability to work and to deprive us of our social freedoms.

You will always try to restrict our freedom of movement, especially at night, or to close down meeting places, rather than factories or office floors. But we will always find ways to oppose you, no matter how difficult it is. On October 23 last year**, you managed to ban our demonstration. The city was cordoned off by the cops in a military way, that day our room for maneuvering was limited, the direct truncheon in the face would have probably been the consequence in many situations. In the years to come we will be confronted with such bans again and again.

You can ban our demonstrations and control the areas where you expect us on those days. But we remain “Autonomous. Resistant. Irreducible”.

If you take us away during the day, we’ll fall back on the night.

People who will still do it!
Until you lay down your weapons and open the way for a new emancipatory beginning!

–

Attaque Notes:

* according to German newspapers, four electric cars of the Polizeibehörde (comparable to the municipal police in French cities) were set on fire in the backyard of the city hall in the Abtnaundorf district.
** A demonstration against the criminalization of the revolutionary movement and the stigmatization of the working-class district of Connewitz was planned in Leipzig on October 23, 2021, but was banned.

Leipzig, Germany: Vonovia offices attacked in solidarity with Biologico!

Posted on 2022/01/21 - 2022/01/21 by darknights

Vonovia has perfected the capitalist exploitation of the basic human need for shelter: apart from outrageously high rents, the company utilizes an endless list of inhumane practices to exploit and terrorize their renters (e.g. systematic fraud in additional costs, general refusal of maintenance, as well as extortion of drastic increases in rent via “modernisations”). Through all of this Vonovia is rapidly advancing gentrification and the housing shortage. Especially in the east of Leipzig this displacement has become increasingly obvious, in hardly any other part of the city the rent is increasing as quickly. Vonovia plays one but not the sole part in profiting massively from this development and in actively advancing it. Our actions are part of the diverse resistance against the so-called ‘valorization’ of neighbourhoods and the displacement of their residents. Militant attacks are one of many means in this fight, they are legitimate and necessary. Direct economic damage drags the ones responsible into the lime light and decreases their profits. But we must not stop there. Let’s work together in many different ways to achieve a city where living together in solidarity is prioritized over the profits of big real estate companies. Let’s create vivd and rebellious neighbourhoods and let’s find ways to connect the various fights against gentrification!

Let’s also not forget about our comrades and friends in other parts of the world. Their struggles are our struggles. The squat “Biologico” in Thessaloniki has been evicted in december of last year. This squat served as a place where social struggles were united with the fights of students and where resistance against valorization and displacement was organized. In their call to action they write: “This one week should serve as another chance for fighters, individuals and groups in Greece, Europe and the whole world to show their solidarity with the squat Biologico which has existed for 34 years and is now at risk of eviction. They should do so with any means necessary and in any way which seems useful. Each eviction has its price. Be prepared, be cautious, solidarity is our weapon.”

We hope seeing the broken windows in Vonovia’s offices brings a smile to the faces of some renters suffering under this company’s harassment.

Let’s burst the bubbles of investors’ dreams! For a city for all!

Leipzig, Germany: Tracking device and bug discovered in car

Posted on 2021/11/21 by darknights

On November 18, 2021, surveillance technology was discovered in a friend’s car, probably belonging to a government agency. It is a larger device with a GPS tracker from the company “u-blox” and a smaller audio recording device. The devices were hidden behind a panel of the front ceiling light. They were connected by a power cable and drew their power from the supply line to the rear ceiling light. A Y-adapter specially adapted to the car model was apparently used for this purpose. The audio unit tapped into the hands-free system’s existing microphone, which was located behind a cover above the rearview mirror. It is not known if the hands-free unit still worked under these circumstances.

Both units were wrapped in foam and gaffa tape, presumably to prevent them from making noise when the car moves. The larger unit has, among other things, a GPS receiver “u-blox MAX-M8”, a card slot with a 16 GB microSD card, a cellular chip “u-blox LISA-U230” along with a Telekom SIM card, as well as a removable three-pin antenna module. The inventory number “2044 ID93 142” is found on the side. Evaluation of the SD card suggests that the device has been in use since at least early September, possibly three months earlier. It can be assumed that the device overwrites cached location data with zeros after it is sent.

The smaller unit contains a voltage converter, a 3.7 V, 550 mAh lithium-ion battery, and a small circuit board. The individual parts are connected with heat shrink tubing. The small circuit board contains, among other things, a 32 GB microSD card and the “NN01-104” antenna from Ignion (formerly “Fractus”), which is designed for the 2.4 GHz frequency band and can thus transmit and receive Bluetooth or WLAN signals, for example. Mobile technology is not present, but it is conceivable that audio recordings were transmitted to the larger device via WLAN or Bluetooth and sent from there, or possibly retrieved from a close distance via WLAN or Bluetooth.

Leipzig: Wir bleiben militant – Autonomen Antifaschismus verteidigen! DE/EN

Posted on 2021/09/01 - 2021/09/01 by darknights

Kommt am 18.09.2021 zur Grossdemo “Wir sind alle Antifaschist*innen – Wir sind alle LinX” nach Leipzig in den Antifa-Block!

Am 8. September 2021 startet in Dresden ein medial groß inszeniertes Justizspektakel, in dem Lina und drei weiteren Gefährt*innen der Prozess gemacht werden soll. Seit November 2020 sitzt Lina – ihrer Freiheit entzogen – im Knast in Chemnitz. Grund dafür ist der Vorwurf, Angriffe auf gewalttätige Neonazis in Ostdeutschland durchgeführt zu haben. Gleichzeitig rückt die Urteilsverkündung im Prozess gegen Jo und Dy in Stuttgart immer näher. Auch ihnen werden Angriffe auf FaschistInnen vorgeworfen und auch sie wurden zeitweilig inhaftiert bzw. sind es immer noch. Die damit verbundenen Verfahren nach dem Paragraphen 129(a) sind der Höhepunkt eines steigenden Repressionsdrucks gegen Antifaschist*innen, welcher bundesweit spürbar ist, sich aber in den letzten Jahren auch in Leipzig konzentriert.

Diese Repression richtet sich allerdings nicht gegen alle Antifaschist*innen. Sie richtet sich nicht gegen einen oft beschworenen “zivilgesellschaftlichen Antifaschismus”, welcher sich allzu oft darauf ausruht, beim gemeinsamen Bratwurstessen gegen Rechts “Gesicht zu zeigen” und sich selbst zu vergewissern, ein besseres oder bunteres Deutschland zu verkörpern, als die Neonazis es gerne hätten. Der staatliche Angriff richtet sich nicht gegen einen Antifaschismus, der darauf abzielt, den FaschistInnen zu zeigen, dass “wir mehr sind” – ein Ansatz mit dem sich die antifaschistische Linke schon immer selbst belog, um das eigene Gewissen zu beruhigen. Ein solcher Antifaschismus ist längst Teil der politischen Selbstinszenierung des deutschen Staates geworden, welche hilfreich dafür ist, die eigene nationalsozialistische Vergangenheit doch endlich hinter sich zu lassen und sich als geläuterte Nation darzustellen.

Leipzig: For the uprising, For Rigaer94 – fire at house of police and prosecutor’s office

Posted on 2021/06/18 by darknights

In our thoughts we were with the brave fighters of the autonomous zone Rigaer Straße when we set a fire at the Haus des Jugendrechts (House of Juvenile Justice, an institution where representatives of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, the police, the judicial assistance to youth and the City work together to repress and prevent “juvenile delinquency”) last night. Our solidarity will always be with the people who do not give up without a fight. Red Zones take whole neighborhoods under captivity and are one of the most effective means of counterinsurgency. The House of Juvenile Justice in Reudnitz, Leipzig is also an actor for the pacification of rebellious individuals, especially “juvenile intensive offenders” like us. In here, cops and prosecutors work hand in hand. That’s why we thought it was a good sign of solidarity to set fire to several tires and the door in front of the House of Juvenile Justice.

The House of Juvenile Justice has been hit several times in recent years. Whoever writes police and public prosecutor’s office big on the front door, will be attacked!

Much strength to Berlin for the coming days! Do not let the pigs rest!
