Filaki- Prison World (english subs) 2007

Posted on 2025/06/30 - 2025/06/30 by darknights

Documentary from Greece about the prison society, its role in social control and the ongoing rebellion against it…

The film focuses on the prison uprisings against the political repression and social war against the comrades in Greece as well as the hunger strikes against the Type-F prisons in Turkey which soon spread to engulf many of the prisons in Greece. These prisons are similar to the Type-C prisons in Greece, the FIES in Spain, the CSC in the UK and other punitive isolation torture regimes around the world.

During the afternoon R.Z. escapes again, for the last time. A detainee shouts to him, ‘How did you do it?’. R.Z answers: ‘From there at the top… you can’t find a way to escape from those walls, because there are other walls beyond… another prison. You must escape from the roof, and head towards the sun. They will never be able to build a wall between the sun and the earth’.

Our passion for freedom is stronger than all prisons!!!

Machine in Flames: a documentary tracing the 1980’s computer-bombers

Posted on 2025/04/28 by darknights

Machines in Flames (2022, 50min) finds a secret history of destruction by following the footsteps of a clandestine group of French computer workers from the 1980s.

In 1980s Toulouse, an elusive group began bombing computer companies. ‘CLODO’ disappeared after three years, without ever being caught or ever to be heard of again. Two film makers launch an investigation into CLODO, looking for answers, motivations and identities, but are soon frustrated by a collective that struck in the dead of night, leaving in their tracks only ashes and the sporadic line of cryptic graffiti. The film combines archival traces, a viral desktop choreography, and late-night video recordings of CLODO’s targets into a meditation on computation, destruction, and the lure of archives.

Chile: (Memory) 17 years after the death of Jhonny Cariqueo

Posted on 2025/04/02 - 2025/04/02 by darknights

“A spoil towards the lazy louse
It is not a simple whim I reflect myself in your eyes
To demonstrate my old commitment
Hip-hop I wet the towel that cleans
The red fist I wave in battle
My people are no longer silent awake with their anger
The rich with their gold filling themselves with praise
The poor with their flowers filling themselves with love
We will be the actors of revolutions”

Jhonny Cariqueo Yañez

Seventeen years ago, in the framework of the Young Combatant’s Day in 2008, one of the most violent days of political street violence took place. Specifically, in the commune of Pudahuel, during the commemoration of the previous September 11, corporal Vera had been killed by a bullet in the head, while on March 26, 2008 a powerful explosive device was detonated in a bank of the commune, creating a subversive atmosphere and a spirit of revenge on the part of the police.

Jhonny Cariqueo Yáñez, 23 years old, a young rapper and anarchist who participated in different hiphop and neighborhood collectives, was arrested on March 29, 2008 at the intersection of La Estrella and San Francisco in the commune of Pudahuel, after a commemorative activity for the Day of the Young Combatant. He was taken to the 26th Police Station where he was brutally beaten, during the detention Jhonny began to feel strong pains in his arm and chest and was taken to an emergency center where it was suggested that he undergo tests, however, the miserable police refused to accept the check-ups. On the morning of March 30, he is taken to the 1st Police Station in Santiago, where he is released at 4:00 p.m.

The following day, March 31. Jhonny lies down on his bed and begins to show symptoms of cardiac arrest and is assisted by his family; however, in a few minutes comrade Jhonny Cariqueo dies.

The anarchic memory has been able to maintain the memory of the comrade present in the street, through incendiary action, activities, documentaries, murals, spaces, explosive actions and projects with his name, demonstrating that no death of our comrades is a sentence to oblivion.

Companera Claudia Lopez, assanssinated by cops September 11, 1998

Posted on 2024/11/03 - 2024/11/03 by darknights

Claudia López Benaiges was murdered on September 11, 1998, after being shot in the back by cops on a barricade in the La Pincoya neighborhood of Santiago, in the context of mobilizations commemorating the Coup d’État in Chile. López was an active feminist, anarchist militant and poet, in addition to studying Spanish pedagogy and dance.

Poem by Claudia López

The celestial litanies
that fill the nights of the worlds,
they incessantly question the anxious daughters of uncertainty.
They explode dazzlingly like bodies that stretch through the walls,
that burst forth through the whispers of light,
that confront the airy and torrid abysses.
The dark bodies of insurrectionary anxiety,
of the subversive desire of the lunar chains,
that poured onto the earth, they seek their names,
those they do not yet have,
that lie buried in the roots of the jungles.

Chile: Video in memory of Mauri, Canal Barrial 3

Posted on 2024/06/06 by darknights

Since 2005, Canal Barrial 3, located in the Yungay neighborhood, a place where during those years there was a strong anti-authoritarian presence housed in various social centers, has been operating.

Mauri actively participated in this television channel, making programs, broadcasting activities and financing.

These images were found in the archives of the channel, and correspond first to an activity carried out by the channel itself, after having suffered a strange and violent theft of the transmitters in the social center “Cueto con Andes”. The later images correspond to the dismantling of the donated antenna, which would allow transmissions in the neighborhood.

15 years after Mauri’s death in action, we remember him from his anarchic and committed multiformity.

(2013) Proyecto Fénix, video

Posted on 2024/01/22 by darknights

Extraído desde otras páginas de contrainformación. El video en griego fue publicado en el año 2013 y traducido a diferentes idiomas en los años posteriores. Recordar que actualmente todxs los miembrxs de la Conspiración de Células del Fuego se encuentran en la calle, los compañeros Alfredo Cospito y Nicola Gai permanecen encarcelados en Italia y nueamente condenados por atentados explosivos de hace varios años atrás. 

Puedes leer más acerca del juicio por Proyecto Fénix en Publicación Refractario.


PROYECTO FÉNIX (traducido al español, 2015)

El “Proyecto Fénix” nace como un gesto solidario dedicado a Alfredo Cospito y Nicola Gai, del “Núcleo Olga FAI/FRI” que asumió la responsabilidad del ataque armado contra Roberto Adinolfi, empresario nuclear de “Ansaldo Nucleare”, y además como una iniciativa internacional de ataque, comenzando en Grecia con la colocación de un artefacto explosivo contra la Directora de la Prisión de Korydallos.

La expansión de las acciones enmarcadas dentro del proyecto se desarrolla a lo largo y ancho de distintos territorios donde la práctica insurreccional pasa de la teoría a la acción, en absoluta consecuencia con las palabras de quienes se declaran en Guerra contra toda Autoridad y el Poder. A su vez, es un incandescente foco revolucionario que insta al diálogo y al debate entre distintos individuxs organizadxs de manera informal y difusa que dan forma al ataque permanente y minoritario.

La práctica del internacionalismo anárquico es uno de los cimientos del proyecto, es el momento donde el ataque autónomo encuentra un campo en común que une, nutre y potencia distintas realidades y tensiones, apuntando y calibrando en su alma la persiste confrontación contra lo existente.

Cada instancia de sabotaje y acción insurrecta coordinada en el Proyecto Fénix, significa asumir una proyección de lucha y combate que desafía sin tregua ni misericordia la paz del orden ciudadano, haciendo entender que cada sitio es un punto de conflicto, y que la expansión del ataque solo depende de nuestras capacidades y voluntades.

En ésta versión del video agregamos el resto de acciones desde el Noveno Acto (México) hasta el Catorceavo Acto (Reino Unido), que siguieron dando forma y pulso al proyecto durante el 2014. Durante el año 2015 se han realizado tres acciones enmarcadas dentro de esta iniciativa internacional de ataque, en Grecia el grupo “Anarquía Combativa FAI/FRI” reivindica un ataque incendiario contra oficinas de Microsoft, en República Checa la “Célula Poesía del Fuego FAI/FRI” asume la responsabilidad de un ataque incendiario contra un vehículo policial e inician la campaña “Vamos a destruir la represión”, mientras que en Chile un artefacto incendiario es activado en una sede de explotación animal y es reivindicado por la “Célula Anarquista de Ataque Incendiario “Fuego y Conciencia” FAI/FRI”.

Durante las últimas detenciones en Grecia, la policía vincula a Christos Rodopoulos con el paquete bomba enviado a Dimitris Mokkas, fiscal encargado del caso Conspiración de Células del Fuego, y continúa la investigación y el proceso contra los compañeros Spyros Mandylas y Andreas Tsavdaridis, que fueron detenidos y acusados de participar en el envío del paquete bomba contra Dimitris Xorianopoulos. Ambas acciones enmarcadas dentro del proyecto, acto seis y cuatro respectivamente.

Enviamos nuestra absoluta complicidad y hermandad con lxs compañerxs de la Conspiración de Células del Fuego en Grecia, saludamos la victoria de su huelga de hambre, y la permanente actitud de confrontación frente al carcelero, sin ceder ni un centímetro ni doblegándose ante la Autoridad. A la compañera Anggeliki Spyropoulou, que pese a las avanzadas represivas se mantiene digna y de frente al enemigo.

LA HISTORIA DEL FÉNIX CONTINÚA ESCRIBIÉNDOSE…
NINGUNA TREGUA NI RETROCESO!!!
ADELANTE, SIEMPRE EN PIE DE GUERRA!!!
NADA HA ACABADO, TODO CONTINÚA

The Simplest Way to Burn a Vehicle

Posted on 2023/09/01 - 2023/09/01 by darknights

In light of the actions that happened last month, I wanted to encourage everyone to revisit this post. Many of the points made about riotous moments apply to clandestine action as well.

If the people at 890 Memorial Drive intended to burn the vehicles, it was not a good idea to smash windows. Not only does this increase the risk of leaving DNA, breaking a window is very loud and likely to attract attention from passerby — which is exactly what interrupted that action, according to police. As demonstrated in this video, a firestarter cube, placed directly on a front tire (or the rear tire on the same side as the gas tank), is sufficient to assure the destruction of the vehicle. Once lit, it takes about five minutes for the firestarter to fully ignite the tire, which is plenty of time to leave the area unnoticed in most cases. Firestarter cubes can be purchased or racked at any grocery store. Cottonballs covered in vaseline can also work as a firestarter.

I’m not sure how long of a time-delay the people who burned the motorcycles were aiming for. It seemed like they used delays that were not sufficiently tested, which resulted in at least one failed incendiary device being recovered. Unless it was important to have a longer time-delay, I think that placing firestarters directly on the tires would have worked better. This method is much less likely to leave DNA traces because there is no need to construct an incendiary device or to carry accelerant at all. This is the beauty of targeting vehicles with rubber tires! Fuel tanks can be punctured or the hoses that run from them cut for another source of accelerant.

Incendiary devices with long time-delays are better suited to heavy machinery with treads, or to structure fires, so I encourage everyone to keep working on their designs! But in the meantime, let’s not overcomplicate things. I’d like to issue a friendly challenge to all individuals and AGs in the movement to take a little break from internet discourse, get outside, and set some shit on fire!

Don’t forget to take all reasonable precautions to minimize DNA evidence. And please be careful about surveillance footage, although avoiding it completely is almost imposssible in Atlanta.

DN: Please also read the following which recommends using wrapped/packeted firelighters that don’t leave a trace unlike other firelighters such as what is shown that can crumble and leave behind evidence. https://darknights.noblogs.org/post/2023/03/12/pdf-how-to-burn-cars-manuals/

Germany: Code Name Jenny / Deckname Jenny

Posted on 2023/08/04 - 2023/08/04 by darknights

“Code Name Jenny” is a highly topical political feature film. We are putting the film on the net for free. It is a gift for all people who like political films. And for all people who fight for a better society.
“Code Name Jenny” was made by independent filmmakers at the self-governing Berlin film school “filmarche”. The film music was made by the wonderful band: “Guts Pie Earshot” and “Nomi & Aino”.

A film that was not interfered with by any production. It was made by critical filmmakers and activists, without money. Filmed at resistant locations in the city of Berlin, where no other camera can get to.
Spread the link to the film. Do screenings. Don’t pay money for screenings or only a contribution to political projects. Discuss the film. Invite us if you want political discussions or want to know how such a film can be made as a no budget film. If you have money and want to support another film, please contact us (there is a good idea!).

A shift to the right in Europe. Drowned people in the Mediterranean. Fortress Europe is growing against refugees. The climate is breaking down. And the wars are getting closer.
Jenny’s gang is no longer watching. And acts. But when Jenny’s father finds out about their militant ambitions, he has to face his own past as a member of a German urban guerrilla group. And now things get tight for all involved…

A story between love and betrayal, hope and resignation, resistance and friendship.
Shot from an anarchist, feminist and queer angle, subversive and self-deprecating, but always lovingly partisan… and intergenerational. That’s it.

Communique Claim Action: Conspiracy from Unit Nemesis (Response to false claim in Jakarta) – ATMs destroyed – Video

Posted on 2023/06/24 by darknights

“Above all one thing must be clear, one is only part of the FAI-FRI in the moment of the action, then each one returns to their life as anarchist, nihilist, individualist, to their own projects and rebel or revolutionary perspectives with all their adjuncts of assemblies, coordinations, affinity nuclei, occupations, communes, struggles in the territory and so on and so forth.”[¹]
Alfredo Cospito

After hundreds of nights spent, after being in a sea of individual adventures, we returned to our basement to continue the urban guerrilla warfare by enabling all methods of action, even though our footsteps were previously heavy enough to make the consistency of ouraggressiveness towards social relations overlaid by civilized moral societies and hierarchies. By a civilized moral society and the odious hierarchy and authority of the rulers and the bourgeoisie of the financiers! We will still attack as we are able to do at any time and anywhere! We are a threat to authoritarians and bourgeois financiers who love the monster of democracy for its profit!

On Monday June 12, 2023 at 02:56 AM we vandalized a Bank Negara Indonesia ATM located in front of Sekip Ujung Market, Jl. Amphibi, Palembang City, South Sumatra Province. And an act of vandalism from our conspirators on Wednesday June 21, 2023 at 00:30 AM in the morning at the Bank Tabungan Negara ATM located on Jl. Bibis Bunder, Gesikan, Krian, Krian District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java and at 00:59 AM WIB at the Bank Negara Indonesia ATM on Jl. Raya Kalijaten, Taman District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java.
