Chile: In the face of the removal of the Noticias de la guerra social website

Posted on 2023/04/15 by darknights

In 2014, we started this counter-information project dedicated to disseminating and documenting the various attacks on the domain, some of them claimed and others anonymous, maintaining a simple format that kept alive only in and with the very pulse of the conflict.

Without worrying too much, we decided to use the most popular service at the time, “wordpress,” since the websites hosted in other “alternative” servers (noblogs, espiv, altervista, lahaine, entodaspartes, etc.) were not considered to be “alternative”. [altervista does not qualify as an “alternative” server, since it is part of the Mondadori group, ed.]) were often removed, either due to repressive attacks or simply due to the termination of their respective projects.

In October-November 2022 https://noticiasdelaguerrasocial.wordpress.com/ was removed from the web, losing that valuable archive and tool for communication and information among antagonists. Far from appealing to “freedom of expression” or complaining about the servers’ own “privacy policies,” we merely noted the fragility of Internet-based projects. Fragility that we knew a priori, but we decided to bet on informal communication and the diffusion of living and latent conflict.

Questions remain in the air: what are the characteristics of our media? How solid are they? What is their degree of autonomy? Do we have our own infrastructure of communication and counter-information? How dependent or susceptible are we? We need to draw some collective lessons from the Italian state’s repressive attack on communication tools such as Radioazione, Culmine or “Vetriolo.” Continue reading “Chile: In the face of the removal of the Noticias de la guerra social website” →

La Paz, Bolivia: Claim of the placement of an incendiary device against a police van

Posted on 2023/04/15 by darknights

Recieved & transmitted:

In the early morning of April 6, around 3:30 a.m. on Mariscal Santa Cruz Avenue, between Oruro and Cochabamba streets, four half-liter bottles filled with gasoline were placed on one of the front wheels of a police van parked in the middle of downtown La Paz, tied with tape and a simple activation system (consisting of incense with matches tied at one end).

Even if the strategy of power is to silence and make invisible the antagonistic practices, they will continue to be present, seeking to stress and intensify the conflict on all horizons.They know the potential of spreading the attack, and so do we.

It is a commitment to continue this struggle that other comrades have been waging for more than a century against power, capital, the state and all forms of authoritarianism. Let us give life to anarchic praxis here and now, responding to structural violence with revolutionary action. Let them doubt the security of their surveillance systems, let them tremble at the possibility of fire. Let them know that their system of misery does not have us all subdued, asleep, defeated. Let us recover the life they want to steal from us, attacking the infrastructure that protects the oppressor, one blow at a time, until the attack becomes customary, until the normal thing is to see them burn.

When power punishes with long sentences, torture, solitary confinement, isolation and death, the present challenge demands concrete and offensive action. A constant action that is not limited to the times of power, that is that is more than just a reaction to repression.

It is time to aim at strengthening ties between like-minded people, breaking down borders, empowering our borders, empower our capacities, educate ourselves in the necessary knowledge to knowledge necessary to qualify our skills, without bosses or leaders. without bosses or leaders.

Let’s conspire for the comrades in prison to go out to the streets. Beyond the slogans, let us slogans, let us make it clear that they are not alone, with all the means at our disposal. Long live all the efforts of the anarchic struggle!

All the states are accomplices of oppression, all are one and the same force of subjugation, the entire of subjugation, all the police the same enemy of liberation.

This action is in solidarity with Alfredo Cóspito, who is on strike since October 20 against the 41 bis regime and life imprisonment in the territory in conflict with the Italian state. Alfredo present in the action in the streets!

A complicit greeting to Monica Caballero and Francisco Solar who will soon face trial will face oral trial risking decades of imprisonment. To Aldo and Lucas Hernandez, arrested and accused for the explosive attack against the National Directorate of Gendarmerie in the territory in conflict with the Chilean state. Strength comrades, nothing is over, everything continues.

Internationalist and insurrectionist solidarity with the prisoners in struggle in the prisons of the world!
For the destruction of the prisons and the society that needs them!
Freedom to the prisoners!
Death to the state, long live Anarchy!

Chile: Monica Caballero and Francisco Solar’s words in view of the upcoming trial

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

Justice is already fine-tuning all the details for his big celebration, he will choose his best clothes and meticulously sharpen his sword. Nothing can go wrong at the moment when he will show himself as he is: the executioner of the powerful.

The sword of justice has been kept in storage waiting for the key moment to strike the right blow to our bodies. That moment translated into punitive punishment will find its climax in the oral trial, which is already set for May 19. This trial is expected to be a long process of several months.

During the month of March we were in the preparation of the oral trial – an instance prior to the trial – where the court, which until now had conducted our criminal proceedings, decided the basis of what will be our next trial.

Basically, the trial will use against us all the legal process for which we were convicted for the placement of an explosive device in the Basilica del Pilar in Zaragoza, as well as practically all the documented evidence of the prosecution, ranging from pamphlets to anarchic books found in our homes.

The recycling of the case already completed in Spain is part of the stubborn insistence of the prosecutor to validate all the antecedents that position us as repeat offenders of the same crimes. Continue reading “Chile: Monica Caballero and Francisco Solar’s words in view of the upcoming trial” →

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.

Athens, Greece: Sabotage actions against the redevelopment works of Strefi Hill

Posted on 2023/04/09 by darknights

The Hill of Strefis is under police occupation.

The works carried out in the last six months are destroying the flora and fauna of the hill, while the operation of its regeneration seeks to isolate it from the movements of the area and the neighbourhood in general, aiming to make it a tourist attraction.All this with the cooperation of the Municipality and the real estate and investment company PRODEA, which through the regeneration of the hill seeks to expand its capital in the neighbourhood.

So in an effort to put obstacles to the projects that are being carried out on the hill we have taken the following actions of sabotage:

1. cutting the industrial power cables that feed the construction site,

2. disconnecting and destroying floodlights installed on the hill under the pretext of site security,

3. drilling and cutting pipes through which the perimeter lighting and camera system will be installed on the hill.

Italy: Important updates on the prison and health conditions of anarchist Alfredo Cospito (April 5, 2023)

Posted on 2023/04/06 by darknights

Important updates on the detention and health conditions of anarchist Alfredo Cospito

Alfredo has NOT ended his hunger strike!
The reports that have been circulating in the media these days are false and slanderous, as is now the custom in this story: he was offered milk, but Alfredo refused it. If he decides to start feeding again, he will follow the instructions given to him by his trusted doctor long ago.
Ahead of the April 18 hearing, he decided to resume supplements: potassium to stabilize his heart, vitamins to try to curb the neurological problem in his lower limbs, and protein. After the hearing at the Constitutional Court in Rome, which is called to rule on the legal legitimacy in granting or not granting mitigating factors in relation to the conviction for 285 c. p. (“massacre for the purpose of attacking the security of the State,” which only provides for life imprisonment) decreed by the Cassation as part of the Scripta Manent trial, he will decide how to proceed.

He is tired and at times struggles to maintain concentration, but he is lucid and present.
In the prison ward of San Paolo, he is NOT getting mail, not even telegrams.
They are NOT delivering books to him, not even the ones he bought through the Opera prison after authorization.
In the room where he is hospitalized he has only artificial light, it is not possible for him to distinguish day from night.
And finally, the doctors in the prison medicine department at San Paolo, who are following Alfredo, still have a provision not to talk and confront the doctor of trust, but to hand over only medical records. Which in fact prevents him from being cared for in the best way.

LET’S CONTINUE THE STRUGGLE ALONGSIDE ALFREDO!

LET US SEND HIM OUR ANGER AND LOVE, SO THAT HE MAY FEEL THAT THOSE WHO STRUGGLE ARE NEVER ALONE!
