Santiago, Chile: Incendiary attacks at Internado Barros Arana, Liceo Manuel Barros Borgoño, Instituto Nacional and Liceo de Aplicación 5 years after Kevin Garrido’s death

Posted on 2023/11/26 - 2023/11/26 by darknights

On November 3 and 4, four high schools in Santiago agitated with leaflets, banners, barricades and confrontations with Molotov cocktails against the presence of carabineros (COP), in commemoration of the comrade Kevin Garrido murdered five years ago inside Santiago 1. Refreshing his memory, we share a brief account of his life trajectory:

In the early morning of November 19, 2015, eighteen-year-old Kevin, in complicity with the night, went on his bicycle to the perimeter of the gendarmerie school of San Bernardo, armed with a bomb, a lighter and a knife. After the detonation, the filthy police, who were already on his trail after a long investigation, captured him a few meters from the place, and simultaneously, Joaquín García was kidnapped from his home, leaving both of them in captivity in the filthy high security prison, specifically in the maximum security section. Accusing both of the explosive attack ( thwarted) to the 12th police station of carabineros of San Miguel (October 29, 2015), bomb “composed of a 6 kilogram fire extinguisher filled with more than 3 kilos of black powder, about 100 4-inch nails and 50 1-inch nails inside to function as shrapnel, a 1 liter bottle of sulfuric acid and two one-liter bottles with benzine, all this activated by remote control, consisting of a cell phone connected to a 2.5 volt light bulb modified as a detonator”, claimed by International Conspiracy for Revenge/Deflagration Cell Gerasimos Tsakalos, also for an explosive attack to the electricity company Chilectra (October 16, 2015) claimed by the Karr-kai Cell and the explosive attack against the gendarmerie school in San Bernardo (November 19, 2015), the latter two attacks linked only to Kevin. [DN Note: All three attacks have been translated below for reference]

After 7 months in captivity, Kevin asks to be transferred to the prison/slaughterhouse Santiago 1.

On June 15, 2018, the inquisitorial trial of the comrades begins, declaring them guilty on August 15; Joaquín for illegal possession of a firearm, which he was carrying at the time of being captured while he was in hiding after breaking a total house arrest measure, and also for the attack on the 12th police station in San Miguel, together with Kevin, who was also found guilty of the explosive attack on the gendarmerie school in San Bernardo. On September 5, 2018 they are sentenced to a total of 13 years in prison for Joaquín and 17 years for Kevin.

On November 2, when going down to the yard, the comrade is involved in a fight with another prisoner, which seemed to be one of the many daily conflicts that are lived in that place, being lethally wounded; without receiving timely medical assistance, he is transferred already deceased from Santiago 1 an hour and a quarter later to the external hospital “Barros Luco”.

Banners and pamphlets read: “Fire to the prisons and to those who sustain them. Every death in prison is a State crime. Kevin Garrido present”, “Down with the cages of civilized society”, “Long live terror, explosions and fire”, “Five years after the murder of comrade Kevin Garrido. We call for a black November in memory of those fallen in the social/anti-social war” and “Joaquín García to the streets”.

Below are some pictures of the events:

France: ‘La rage, partout’ Responses after the umpteenth police execution

Rage, everywhere

~~Le Monde~~ / Thursday June 29, 2023

The night of Wednesday June 28 to Thursday June 29 was marked by major tension and damage in many Paris suburbs, with urban violence spreading to other French cities such as Toulouse and Lyon, following the death in Nanterre of Nahel M., a 17-year-old teenager killed by a police officer for refusing to obey orders.

Although calm in the early evening, the situation then became tense in the Hauts-de-Seine suburb, already the scene of clashes between residents and police during the night. More than a dozen cars and dumpsters were set on fire, and barriers were placed on the road, as Le Monde journalists observed. The walls of one building were tagged with the words “Justice for Nahel” and “Police kills”.

At 2 a.m., small, highly mobile groups were still clashing in the Pablo-Picasso district. Police forces had withdrawn and were no longer visible in a part of the housing estate that had come under the complete control of the rioters. The fire department has also retreated, according to our local reporter Luc Bronner.

Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin had announced the mobilization of 2,000 police and gendarmes in Paris and its inner suburbs for Wednesday evening, 800 more than last night.

Incidents were also reported in several towns in the Hauts-de-Seine district. In Clamart, a tramway train was set on fire, according to a police source.

Around twenty communes in Seine-Saint-Denis reported incidents, according to a police source, sometimes in normally quiet towns such as Dugny. According to this source, each time there were groups of less than a hundred highly mobile people on the scene. The Préfecture de Police reported 35 arrests shortly before 2 a.m.

In Essonne, a group of people set fire to a bus at around 9 p.m. after removing the passengers in Viry-Châtillon, according to police sources. Clashes also broke out shortly after 8 p.m. in the Mirail district of Toulouse, where several vehicles were set on fire, with police and firefighters receiving projectiles, according to a police source.

In several areas of Dijon, the authorities reported the burning of rubbish dumpsters and the firing of fireworks. In Lyon and the surrounding area, as well as in Vénissieux, Bron and Villeurbanne, the police were targeted by firework mortars. A fire probably caused by pyrotechnic fireworks broke out in a building in Villeurbanne, leaving four people slightly injured, the fire department said. “Some apartments” were destroyed by the fire and ten households, or 35 people, were rehoused. Four people were also hospitalized with mild poisoning. In Vaulx-en-Velin, the police station was targeted before the police intervened.

Elsewhere, tensions were reported in Roubaix (Nord), Amiens and Nice, according to a police source. Some incidents, as in Saint-Etienne, Lille and Rennes, took place on the edges of rallies in support of Soulèvements de la Terre, the recently disbanded environmental movement.

The security post at the entrance to the Fresnes prison estate (Val-de-Marne) was attacked with fireworks by rioters on Wednesday night, Agence France-Presse (AFP) learnt from a police source.

Videos consulted by AFP show around twenty hooded youths attacking the guard post at the entrance to the estate with firework mortars and various projectiles.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for the attack on a police patrol at Strefi Hill on 15/6

Posted on 2023/06/27 by darknights

We are at a juncture where, in the space of just a few months, we have counted two mass state capitalist murders, in Tempe and Pylos, which demonstrate in the most deafening way the very essence of capitalism. We are under no illusions and we know very well that in the face of the deadlock and bankruptcy of the state-capitalist system, the only answer that the state and capital have to propose is, on the one hand, to create new hotbeds of imperialist conflict and intervention in the capitalist regions, thus creating new hundreds of dead, both on the battlefields and in the debris left behind by war and the overexploitation of resources, and on the heavily guarded border lines, which have resulted in the Mediterranean becoming a vast graveyard of refugees.

On the other hand, in the capitalist centres of the West, capital and the state are looking for new areas of profitability through further class devaluation, impoverishment and death politics, which in turn create modern metropolitan guarded sweatshops in which we are forced to survive in conditions of misery with meagre wages as a result of the overvaluation of our labour power, with one worker murder after another, with the coverage of our basic material needs becoming more and more difficult, and the deterioration of the structures that cover basic social needs of transportation, health, education, etc. and with a state that is further entrenching itself by militarising its metropolises and increasing military budgets.

So at the same time as the state is generously spreading death, oppression, exploitation and destruction, it is inviting us to participate in the carnival of elections to choose which party will “save” us and which party will provide the best opposition. It invites us to entrust the management of our lives to saviours great and small, and once we have chosen we can proudly return to normality, where people are murdered at the borders, in police stations, on the streets, in the workers’ sweatshops. We can return to the normalcy of “passports” and starvation wages, of snitch journalists and exhausted and unpaid overtime, of evictions and home foreclosures. The normalcy we legitimize by voting consent and submission. In the face of their normalcy there is disobedience, resistance and rebellion. Against the vote of delegation there is collectivity, self-organization, faith in our strengths and in the potential of all the oppressed and exploited. The belief that this world will be changed by us, through collective struggles we will stand on our feet and attack the state, capital and their praetorian guard.

Incendiary outbreak at Liceo de Aplicación in memory of Mauricio Morales

On Monday, May 22, a rally was held in the vicinity of the Liceo de Aplicación leading to barricades and confrontations with Molotov cocktails against the presence of the Carabineros (COP) in memory of comrade Mauricio Morales who died in combat when he detonated in advance the explosive device he was trying to install in the Gendarmerie School in 2009.

Banners and leaflets were read: “May 22nd, day of chaos”, “Before sleeping I embrace kaos. For a May as black as gunpowder. Mauricio Morales”, ” There are still backpacks like Punky Mauri’s”, “Mauricio Morales present, let anarchy live”, “14 years after your departure, you are still alive in our anarchist hearts and souls.”

Santiago, $hile: Claim for incendiary exit for the Paco day at the Universidad Academia de Humanismo Cristiano & International Call for the Black May

Posted on 2023/05/01 by darknights

Received & transmitted:

SANTIAGO, $HILE: CLAIM OF INCENDIARY EXIT FOR THE PACO DAY1 AT THE UNIVERSIDAD ACADEMIA DE HUMANISMO CRISTIANO AND INTERNATIONAL CALL FOR A BLACK MAY.

On Thursday April 27 as affinities we broke into the normal functioning of the university citizenship of the UAHC to celebrate the day of the paco in the way we like the most: with street violence. We set up a barricade of debris to interrupt the Condell traffic and thus invoke the bastards to fight them with Molotov cocktails. While we waited, we set fire to the electricity pole of a surveillance camera located at Obispo Salas and Condell. In this context, the response of the ratis2 was not long in coming; helmets, shotguns, bullet-proof vests and a shield were timidly placed outside their gate to intimidate and provoke our action. Unfortunately, we did not take the bait and waited for the police onslaught in order to fight back in a more optimal way, not as a sign of cowardice towards the ratis (we always went straight at them, even provoking them with a couple of Molotovs on the ground and stones), but knowing that if we attacked them directly, they would unleash an onslaught of shots and the panic could have caused a worse accident given the crowd of people in the street.

In this context, the wait for the police onslaught took almost two hours, which exacerbated the spirits of several of us. During this wait, a citizen-cop threatened us in a stupid and naive way with the intention of hitting us. A brief scuffle broke out and ended with his precious car out of service thanks to a Molotov that set fire to the driver’s seat of the car. We are not ashamed to attack the material goods of those who try to act as police without wearing a uniform; they more than deserve it.

After two hours of long and tedious waiting, the guanaco3 located at Condell and Providencia begins to advance while from Rancagua and Condell another guanaco also advances, trying to make a “trap” strategy. It is at this moment when we launched a couple of Molotovs, which triggered the advance of the ratis, covering themselves with the guanaco to proceed to execute about 9 shots, which left a person from the university wounded in his skull.

After this offensive, we continued the confrontation with Molotov cocktails inside the vicinity of the university. It is at that moment when the guanaco threw water directly into the face of a student.

Apart from any useless victimhood, we know that in the face of our inflammatory provocation they will do the impossible to see us imprisoned/dead; we are proud enemies of power and we are consistent with that, our lives are always open to the possibility of jail or death. Moreover, we also know that these events occur in this way because the precious government of the progressive bourgeoisie has given unlimited guarantees to its forces of order, all this under the neo-fascist rhetoric of “citizen security”. The trigger-happy law does nothing more than evidence the political crisis of progressivism and the unrestricted union of the entire political class. The progressive sector has not been able to repress subversion under the counterinsurgency mechanisms of social democracy (recuperation, democratization, grassroots politicking, etc.) and has given ground to the rhetoric of punitive populism, which leaves them only one option to safeguard their reputation: self-perpetuate at gunpoint.

It should be noted that, in addition, during this day simultaneous confrontations occurred at the Liceo Barros Borgoño (with a compa run over by the cops), Liceo 1 (with several detainees), INBA, Liceo de Aplicación, the former Pedagógico (where the cops attacked entering the university), among other establishments that were also occupied after the riots.

In relation to all that happened during that day, it is worth reflecting on the means of attack that we use in the face of the armed threat of the police in the context of trigger-happy behavior. We know that the police have always shot at us at random, however, this cannot remain just an inconsequential chant that says “all the bullets will be returned” while standing idly by. It is our certainty that those bullets do not return on their own and that when they least expect it we return them with ferocity and that in those moments they exhibit all their cowardice when they see us armed… Yes, this is also a threat.

It is time to study new means, new objectives, to qualify the attack, to strike harder and harder and to be unpredictable and invisible to the eyes of power. In a self-critical way we think that if we have to make incendiary exits we cannot only arm ourselves with Molotov bombs, paint or stones. It is necessary that our offensive puts their miserable lives at risk and that they feel the taste of blood in their mouths. Enough of raising banners waiting for them to stop shooting and killing us and let’s take arms into our hands not only in the peripheries of the city, but also in the heart of the metropolis; without leadership, without platforms, without vanguards, without leaders, informally and among like-minded individuals to unleash the anarchic war against all the existent.

For these reasons and more, we call for the multiplication of anarchic urban guerrilla actions throughout the world, making an Internationalist Call for a BLACK MAY in memory of comrade Mauricio Morales and in solidarity with Mónica Caballero and Francisco Solar as their oral trial is about to begin on May 19. We leave you these words to be spread around all the black threads of the world, dedicated to those who have ears to hear them, minds to reflect and hearts to take action and explode in rebellion.

SOLIDARITY AND ARMED COMPLICITY WITH MÓNICA, FRANCISCO, MAWUNKO, TOMÁS, THE COMRADES OF THE SUSARON CASE AND THE GENDARMERÍA CASE!
UNLEASH REVENGE THIS MAY 1ST FOR FRANCISCA SANDOVAL AGAINST THE TRAFFICKERS-COPS OF CENTRAL STATION!
ANARCHIC SOLIDARITY WITH THE INDEFATIGABLE COMRADE ALFREDO COSPITO!
UNLEASH THE NEW ANARCHIST URBAN GUERRILLA AGAINST ALL THE EXISTENT!
FOR A BLACK MAY FULL OF EXPLOSIONS AND SOLIDARITY!
LONG LIVE THE BLACK INTERNATIONAL!

Bandung, West Java, Indonesia: Propane bomb & molotov attack on local parliament building by ‘Free Association of Autonomous Fires’

Posted on 2023/04/28 by darknights

Received anonymously & reposted:

Yesterday we strike a blow against local parliament building in Bandung, West Java. Armed with propane bomb and molotovs, we managed to destroy huge part of the building resulting in wildfires that destroy most of their archives. During endless demonstration against the newly labour law, where most of the protesters are consisting of movement brokers, wanna-be politician, social anarchists, we choose to strike at a different place. As we will never beg or demand the so called rights from the powers that be. This action is dedicated to Alfredo Cospito, Toby Shone, Monica and Fransisco, Chilean and Greek anarchists imprisoned, and to all anarchist insurgents everywhere!

For Anarchy and destruction of the existent

Athens, Greece: Taking responsibility for the attack on the central MAT riot cops’ den in Goudi area

Posted on 2023/04/15 - 2023/04/15 by darknights

We take responsibility for the massive arson attack that took place at the central premises of the riot police in Goudi on Tuesday 28 March. Our action comes as a minimal response to the orgy of repression unleashed by the New Democracy government against the mass and militant protests against the state-capitalist crime in Tempe.

The government’s law and order doctrine is the other side of neoliberal policies, class inequality, poverty and privatisation. In the run-up to the election period, attacking the law and order doctrine, attacking the forces of repression, causing unrest targeting, among others, the pigs of the police, is a priority in order to defeat in practice this political doctrine that has left dead and wounded in its wake.

The incendiary attack on the central riot police headquarters was a signal of solidarity with those who took to the streets and clashed with the uniformed watchdogs of the State. To those who lost their own people to State-capitalist crime. To those who are thinking of taking the step to move from abstract condemnation, denunciation, peaceful protest, to a political strategy of which revolutionary violence is an integral part.

Against the organised violence and terrorism of the State, with their guns pointing at us and sometimes going off – always by accident – with their truncheons breaking our bones, with their tear gas suffocating us. Organized revolutionary violence that seeks small and large cracks to make itself felt, to fight back, to make fear change sides, is the only solution.

Solidarity with the anarchist hunger striker Alfredo Cospito who is fighting against the regime of isolation and torture 41bis

Solidarity to those who are in the streets of rage in France and who are revolting in the heart of Europe-capitalist castle.
