Rome, Italy: Claim of incendiary attack on a TIM network distribution office in solidarity with all imprisoned anarchists around the world

Posted on 2023/03/14 by darknights

Claim of incendiary attack on a TIM network distribution office in solidarity with all imprisoned anarchists around the world (March 9, 2023)

Tim headquarters attacked

In the middle hours of the night between Thursday and Friday, March 9, we attacked a TIM network distribution office in a Rome neighborhood.

Outside the facility, a building above which are located several antennas and a giant repeater, was a closed room whose door indicated the presence of electrical instrumentation, which is why we thought it might be both a data center and the power source for the antennas and the facility itself.

We then broke into the room by opening the door with a crowbar, after which it was enough to pour gasoline on the electrical panels and cables and control units. Under the various switchboards or servers were large diameter cables, probably used to transmit data to/from the repeater. We delayed the ignition with a few little tricks and disappeared.

Due to the silence of the regimental media about the incident, we do not know exactly the extent of the damage, i.e., how many meters and switchboards are damaged; what is certain is that a fire broke out with a resounding deflagration.

TIM is actively cooperating in the ongoing technical/technological catastrophe and is at the forefront of fiber optic and 5G extension.

In addition, TIM is cooperating with those in power, the state and jailers, in the implementation of electronic bracelets aimed at monitoring people held under house arrest.

We learn from the press how the company is facing several technical distribution problems (so-called tim down), all the more reason to attack it as malicious damage adds to their inefficiency. Striking while the iron is hot: strike, strike again, strike better until the destruction of the prison company.

TIM, the state and the bosses are everywhere, to each his choice.

Italy: ‘To burning hearts’ Statement of the anarchists accused at the trial for Operation Renata

Posted on 2023/02/21 - 2023/02/21 by darknights

Four years after the repressive operation Renata on February 19, 2019, we publish – not for an aseptic “exhumation” of recent history, but because these are texts that address the profound social and individual reasons for the anarchists’ thought and action – the statement of the seven comrades accused during the first-degree trial (“To Burning Hearts”) and a second statement distributed during the appeal trial. In addition, we believe it is important and necessary to find and disseminate the statements of comrades who, during the trials, take the floor continuing to support the ideas and practices of attack against the state and capital.

To burning hearts

Statement of the anarchists accused at the trial for Operation Renata

The anarchist does not look to success, to victory, to competition. He fights, because it is right. And in any struggle loss is part of life. He does not change his mind because he loses, much less give up the next struggle. The System is self-feeding because of the people who do not fight, not because they are invincible. The anarchist’s job is to instill in the people revolt, not in segments but continuous. Like a wave that recedes and then returns. You ask me if we will win? You ask me the wrong question. Ask me if we will fight and I will answer yes.
Luigi Galleani

Today we decided to have our say on the “Renata” operation. In other writings, the investigation has been analyzed, both in its general repressive aspects of the state and with regard to the technological, inquisitorial and legal tools used to hit those who still dare to fight for something different and still blow on the wings of freedom.

We have decided not to turn to the court that will try us nor to the diligence of our repressors. A courtroom is not the place where we choose to speak today.

We want to speak in those places where there is struggle, where there is still critical spirit, wherever there are women and men who are aware that so many things must be changed now, that this state of affairs must be revolutionized.

So we are going to talk about the actions that we are accused of or that are included in the investigation.

These actions-night or day, individual or collective-are part of a conflict that goes far beyond the specific facts or the territory in which they are located. They are the result of a broader clash, that between the exploited, the exploiters and those who defend them.

Of these actions we share the spirit, the ethics, the method, the goals, regardless of who carried them out. They speak for themselves, they are understandable to most, they point to a path – that of liberation. They point the finger at those who live by exploitation and war, hatred and violence, they wish for something more, something that will put an end to the worst atrocities and barbarities, but above all they aim to destroy the wall of resignation, in times so poor in human solidarity, rebellion, critical thinking.

Those who in recent years have said and still say that such actions serve no purpose, that the game is not worth the candle, that nothing will change, that human beings have permanently lost their wits by reducing life to a constant fratricidal war, have stopped dreaming, have stopped questioning those responsible for injustice and the causes that have brought society to a moral, environmental and material level that is disturbing to say the least.

Turin, Italy: Claim of incendiary attack on a telecommunications cell tower in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito on hunger strike to the bitter end

Posted on 2023/02/08 by darknights

Claim of incendiary attack on a telecommunications cell tower in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito on hunger strike to the bitter end (Turin, Jan. 28, 2023)

DIRECT ACTION AGAINST TELEPHONE REPEATERS FOR ALFREDO AGAINST 41 BIS

On the night of 27.01 to 28.01, we attacked a cell tower with fire and with immense pleasure, in response to the international call to action in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito (from 22.01 to 28.01). Alfredo has been on hunger strike since 20.10 against 41 BIS and hostile life imprisonment.

On that night we arrived, with a smile on our faces, in the woods of the Turin hillside, increasingly cemented by the presence of the rich and infested with numerous repeaters, sources of innumerable harmfulness, both environmentally and socially.
Attacking a repeater used by IREN (a company that also operates some incinerators in Italy), WIND (one of the promoters of 5G/civilian and military use and artificial intelligence), private surveillance companies and the police, was the least we could do.

This is our small but confrontational and determined contribution to the struggle that is being carried out with great courage and firmness by our comrade Alfredo.

Last November 3, in Grugliasco (To), someone thought well of damaging a 4/5G antenna; we only continued in the same direction with further precision and with the will to sabotage that daily “normality” indifferent to the violence that power carries out every day.

The current hypersupervising and invasive technological society is creating a hyper-connected and digitized world that does not want to give a chance to those who resist and those who do not want to become accomplices of an energy-intensive system aimed at infinite production capable only of creating death and devastation in every part of the moribund globe.

Our enemy, the state, always thinks that by repressing one of us, it can intimidate a thousand; but now is the time to make them understand, once and for all, that their calculations sometimes do not add up.
It is time to consolidate certain practices (the direct actions) that not a few individualities have put in place in recent months. It is time to continue in that direction with additional strength and new forward momentum, without hesitation or fear.

It has been a long time since there have been numerous sabotage of 4/5G antennas and fiber optic installations in France (from 01.01.2022 to 30.10.2022 there are more than 104), as well as direct actions against some wind farms. Even in “our” territories, where the natural and animal world is increasingly domesticated, enslaved and musealized, it is time to raise our heads and act firmly, lucidly and precisely. If not now when?

With your head, with your heart, with your hands, alongside Alfredo and all the people who do not give up.

Turin, Italy: Incendiary attack on a telecommunications repeater in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito on hunger strike to the bitter end

Posted on 2023/01/31 by darknights

We learn from the media that on the night of January 28, a telecommunications repeater located in Turin on Via Revigliasco (in a hilly area close to the city) was set on fire. According to various media reports, the fire – which occurred around 4:30 a.m. – resulted in the damage of about 2,000 meters of cables, interrupting service not only for some telephone companies but also for other companies, such as Iren (electricity and gas provider), and for some security systems that use the facility.

The inscription ” Out Alfredo Cospito from 41 bis” was left at the site, in reference to the anarchist comrade imprisoned in the Bancali prison, who has been on hunger strike for more than 100 days against the 41 bis regime (in which he has been imprisoned since May 5) and the hostile life sentence (which is likely to be the final sentence for the comrade at the end of the Scripta Manent trial, which has reached its last trial hearings). Currently, other than the writing found by the repressive forces, no claim or communication regarding the attack appears to have been released.

Bologna, Italy: Two repeaters set on fire

Posted on 2022/06/03 - 2022/06/03 by darknights

“Social war on state war,” this was the writing left on the night of May 22 near 2 repeaters set on fire near Bologna. A minimal gesture of active insubordination to a state that lives on wars and massacres and today accuses anarchists of massacre, that sends weapons but flaunts itself as a bearer of peace, that legitimizes the use of torture through the 41bis regime. We act, because for 2 years they have been intermittently locking us in, blackmailing us and taking away our ability to deal on the basis of free choices with what was happening. All to run the money machine of capitalism. And today we find ourselves the rich richer, the poor poorer and society more alienating, judgmental and suspicious. Now, with war, it happens again: emergency, national unity, sacrifices, because the bosses, beyond their country, have to assert and proceed with their interests, on the skin of those who are under the bombs, those who go to jail for protests, those who impoverish. If we don’t want the war they are waging on us to make the world an unlivable place, it’s time to agitate, to fight back and strike even unpredictably because they must know that in front of their plans there are those who are immobile and silent and do not want to be.

Genova, Italy – Two Repeaters Sabotaged With Fire by Anarchists For The Destruction Of The Existent

Posted on 2021/07/20 - 2021/07/20 by darknights

OPPRESSION: AN ENDEMIC EVIL OF OUR EXISTENCE
– BRIEF HISTORY –

State or pseudo-state oppression dates back thousands of years, and has had very precise stages that begin with the birth of the first cities, which then evolved into city-states, kingdoms, empires.
Those who chose to live outside these “organizations” could live as they wished.

With the French revolution was born the first modern government, centralized, homologating that cancels uses, customs and habits in spite of the directives of parliament.
Revolts and resistances to this change were fierce and equally fierce were repressed.

The industrial revolution arrived, the mother of all revolutions.
With it came the foundations of capitalism, which evolved into what it is today.
Unlike the states, capitalism knows no boundaries as well as the riots against it throughout the 800 and most of the 900 interested Europe and the United States.

In the present day, science comes into the picture, as a partner of state and capital.
Technological advancement is another tool evolved by capitalism, generates profit and opens new doors to industrial development.
From carriages to cars, from rural agriculture to mechanized agriculture, from wars with bow and arrow to wars with drones.

Scientists have always been ready to lend their help to authority and repression, refining the means of propaganda such as radio, TV, press, internet and arming the states with deadly and destructive weapons.

Companies such as Ansaldo Nucleare, Piaggio Aerospace, Leonardo, IIT, ENI are the pride of the Italian state as regards the development of war, technology and energy.
But for us anarchists are the personification of evil and as such must be destroyed for the abominations of which they are guilty.
Each of these companies are synonymous with war, devastation and repression. Continue reading “Genova, Italy – Two Repeaters Sabotaged With Fire by Anarchists For The Destruction Of The Existent” →

Genoa, Italy: Burning of Erzelli Polo Tecnologico 5G Repeater, Server-Data Cabinets & Terna High Voltage pylon

Posted on 2021/06/25 - 2021/06/25 by darknights

This is an era where the triumph of science, technology and technique prevails unceasingly. All this does not mean that we are in a science fiction or visionary world, but that, in the crude reality, science after having faithfully only served politics (the State) and economics (capital), has now become the driving force of the new productive and economic order.

Until the middle of the 20th century it provided the propaganda means (TV, radio, press), the repressive ones (weapons) to the State and the means of industrial production that reduced the workforce. From the middle of the last century onwards, the power of science has grown more and more to invade every aspect of our lives and through bio-nano technologies, of life itself.

The monopoly of truth seems to have made science all-powerful, as with the state its historic monopoly of violence.

Science, Church and State in the past have clashed in contending for power or for the division of powers. Now it is science and technology that determine and influence state policy and economic, social and repressive strategies: they are therefore not neutral.

Capitalism finances armies of technicians dedicated to research and creation of new products and “resources” manageable only by specialists, as well as products that once made available to the masses shape the world around us becoming “indispensable” and sometimes indestructible as nuclear power.

This process is as rapid as the growth of technology and has restricted individual freedom.

Algorithms decide the rhythms of production, large data collection servers, geolocation, applications reduce us to subjects/objects of consumption. If the restriction of freedom implemented in the past by the state and capital provoked fierce resistance from the exploited, this does not happen with science. In the collective imagination it remains neutral and, moreover, in the West, its products have increased the comfort and well-being of most people. In the face of this well-being, the lack of freedom, the exploitation of resources, the enslavement of entire populations, the unlivability of entire areas of the planet, the migrations due to war and climate change, are of no interest.
