Solidarity with Los Angeles! Arson attack on multiple NYPD vehicles.

Multiple NYPD cars were set on fire in the early, early morning of Thursday June 12th. The cars were just waiting there, practically begging for a new makeover! Tips on replicating this can be found on most counterinfo sites or just common knowledge; this was way easy. And so fun. Apologies to the community for the smell and the noise. And fuck you and haha to that pig—yeah, you know who you are.

There are many reasons for doing this, but for the sake of time it can be boiled down to four: 1) Solidarity with the uprising happening in Los Angeles where community and rebels are fighting Amerikkkan pig forces. From one cop city to another, death to the pigs and the surveillance state. 2) Revenge for the NYPD’s continuous physical and sexual harassment/assault of protestors, particularly femmes (incidents include removing of hijabs, forced nudity, degrading remarks, and more). 3) Something to show that repression breeds resistance and 4) Demonstrating that solidarity with the Palestinian resistance, immigrants, Black people doesn’t mean pointless demos where everyone gets arrested, endless marches to nowhere, and vapid chants. Solidarity means ATTACK! ATTACK! ATTACK! ATTACK!

Sincerely, the anarchists and the rats and the brats and the lawless.

Arson Attack on Police Van in Williamsburg

Last night before the rain I put a package of flamey on the wheel of a police van by union and metropolitan in williamsburg. I don’t know exactly what happened next, but I’m glad I did it and recommend everyone try as many firey ways as possible for as long as breaking cop toys is seen as violence while people being forcefully removed from their loved ones and from the ground and resources they have every right to by being born on this planet is seen as law and routine.

Against a coward hearted nation that fronts for free speech while allowing a young woman to be jumped in the street for writing against genocide, and organizers and protesters to be kidnapped.

Against a fraudulent country that is willing to expose its illusion of liberty as posturing as long as it can stay scared of brown people’s freedom.

For Rumeysa Ozturk, for Mahmoud Khalil, for all the families, friends, nieghbors imprisoned. For everyone stolen from us, from one of so many who WILL. NOT. FORGET THEM.

Anti-militarists claim arson of Amazon and Deutsche Telekom vehicles

Amazon targeted for complicity in Israel’s Gaza genocide, Telekom for cooperation with the German military and Elon Musk’s Starlink—communiqé

An anti-militarist group has claimed responsibility for setting fire to a total of 35 commercial vehicles from Amazon and Deutsche Telekom in Berlin in the early hours of Tuesday. The Amazon vans were torched on a site on Koppelweg, in the south of the German capital, while Telekom parking was situated in Lichtenberg in Berlin’s east, reported German media. No people were hurt.

In a communiqé, the un-named group said it was “celebrating” the opening of the new Amazon Tower in Berlin, citing disgust with the company’s lending its computing power to the Israeli military (along with Google and Microsoft). “The destruction and starvation in Gaza unfolding before our eyes, the planned complete relocation of the population, and the AI-based massacre and mutilation of hundreds of thousands of people, including many children, are being calculated and stored on Amazon Web Services’ servers”, said the group. It also named Amazon as a key contractor for the American military and a “generous sponsor of King Trump’s military parade … State and capital in lockstep toward fascism”.

Telekom was targeted due to its “support for the Bundeswehr” and as a “supplier of IT to border authorities, police, and intelligence services”, said the communiqué. The activists also cited T-Systems, which works in collaboration with Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite network. Citing Amazon’s competing Project Kuiper, the text said that “Musk and Bezos, with their corporate networks, are thus technocrats who not only profit from wars but can now influence their course”.

“Demanding life against militarism and technologies of death is right, just as it is right to claim and defend antimilitarism against nationalism”, concluded the commuiqué, “It is right to liberate life from all militarism and war, from the state and patriarchy”.

Amazon condemned the act, a spokesperson told Reuters, while Deutsche Telekom said it could not comment on pending investigations. These attacks are not unusual, noted observers. In 2020 and 2021 more than 400 cars were set alight in Berlin. In 2021, the total number of cars, including those that caught fire when vehicles in the vicinity were torched, surpassed 700.

(France) Communiqué for sabotage against electrical installations on the Côte d’Azur

Sabotage on the Côte d’Azur: And… cut!

[On the night of May 23 to Saturday, May 24, 2025 in Tanneron (Var) and Villeneuve-Loubet (Alpes-maritimes), the hydroelectric power station and a high-voltage pylon were visited, just hours before the closing of the Cannes Film Festival. The former was set on fire at around 2:45 a.m., plunging the eastern Var and western Alpes-Maritimes into darkness, and the latter collapsed in the morning after its legs were sawed off, depriving the town of Cannes and the surrounding area of electricity for a second time, this time in the middle of the day. This double attack, which Sans Nom published about yesterday, was claimed the next day by “two crews of anarchists” against the Festival and also against Thales Alenia Space, in a communiqué published on Indy Nantes].


Communiqué for sabotage against electrical installations on the Côte d’Azur

AND… CUT!

Two crews of anarchists here. We claim responsibility for the attack on electrical installations on the Côte d’Azur. On the eve of the Cannes Film Festival awards ceremony and gala evening, we sabotaged the main substation supplying the Cannes area, and sawed through the 225 kV line coming from Nice.

The aim of this action was not only to disrupt the festival, but also to cut power to Thales Alenia Space’s research centers and factories, its dozens of subcontractors, the French Tech start-ups who thought they were safe, the airport and all other industrial, military and technological establishments in the area.

An unexpected cut to a bad horror film that drags on and on. The same script is used over and over again to the point of nausea. The scenes change, as do the special effects, but the backdrop is always the same: a world that won’t stop bombing, exploiting, mining, hoarding, raping, ravaging, starving, machine-gunning, polluting and exterminating until everything is under its control.

We know we’re not on a film set, but the phrase “CUT!” seemed to sum up our desire: to switch off this deadly system.

AND… CUT! Your spectacle that serves as a showcase for a grandiose French Republic, defender of the values of Progress on the international stage, but above all the second largest arms exporter in the world. French excellence in this field arms NATO and sows death, from Yemen to Gaza, from Ukraine to the Sahel.

AND… CUT! Your obscene ceremony on a coast that’s become a refugee graveyard, and the industrial trashcan of a society that loves to bring revolt to the screen, but represses and imprisons anyone who rises up against its domination of the world.

AND… CUT! The promotion of the surrogate world you create with your TV shows and movies, which wants us to forget the real planet, rotten with factories, highways, concrete and mines.

AND… CUT! The testicles… No? (Tempting!) Well, the hands! … No more?! The tongue then!

In short, silence all those who say: “Those hysterical women are exaggerating!” To put an end to these oppressors with their thousand masks, who turn bodies into objects, and who defend the rape culture so prevalent in the film industry, from the screen to the shooting location, but just as prevalent elsewhere…

AND… CUT! The power of your military-technology industries. Thales-Alenia Aerospace, a leader in the defense sector, manufactures gun sighting and missile guidance systems, and space telecommunications. Thales-Alenia Aerospace is by far the leading satellite manufacturer in Europe, particularly for military use. Labs and workshops at the Cannes site run 24 hours a day. Several thousand engineers and technicians work daily on the refinement of these military satellites (observation, communication, missile and drone guidance) and civilian satellites (telecommunications, surveillance).

AND… CUT! Your sickening speeches that want to draw us into your war preparations. Your announcements of reindustrialization and nuclear revival. Your talks about ecological transition and the continuation of industrial society. Your rhetoric against those who fight against your cement factories, freeways, nuclear sites, chemical plants, high-speed trains and cell towers. Your calls for national unity, for the “rearmament” of the nation-state, for the defense of your values and your vision of the world.

So yes… Cut the power to what’s destroying us!
Sabotage is possible!

Cut the screens
Cut the highways
Cut the pylons
Cut artificial light
Cut high-speed train lines
Cut telecommunications
Cut bulldozer cables
Cut power to the military industry
Cut power to factories
Cut oil and gas pipelines
Cut wind turbine measuring masts
Cut army supply lines
Cut off water to industrial agriculture and electronics plants
Cut cables to solar power plants
Cut cell towers
Cut the bars of prison cells (and long live attacks on the prisons!)
Cut short reformist and authoritarian discourses
Cut short the silencing and minimization of patriarchal violence
Cut off the pedestal of celebrities and other men of power, who assault and rape behind the scenes as well as on the battlefield
Cut short those who say to wait

And… hold in there. Courage.

And since you love bringing rebellion to the screen…
And you’ve got to have a sense of humor!

Here, inspired by the latest hits in international cinema, a self-production released especially for the 2025 edition of the Cannes Film Festival!

Sabotage 2: Night in Cannes
An anonymous self-production

Production
Unknown and determined to stay that way

Screenplay
Inspired by real-life convictions

Release date
May 2025

Synopsis
Set in a world on the brink of apocalypse, the film follows the adventures of an anti-authoritarian commando group whose mission is to sabotage technological factories of great military importance. When they decide to strike during a prestigious cultural event, a race against time begins…

If you love women who short-circuit aluminum production, middle-schoolers who burn down factories, Fremen who rise up against the intergalactic empire, or commandos who take on the oil industry, you won’t be left wanting with this latest production.
The Untouchables

The special effects sometimes leave something to be desired, which is not surprising given the limited means at this production’s disposal, but the script and strategic cunning more than make up for this shortcoming.
Cannes Matin

An irresistible tale of good versus evil. A favorite in these times of confusion and disarray.
Allocinéma

It’s hard to excuse the lack of nuance, the absence of constructive dialogue and the clear democratic deficit of the radical message conveyed by the protagonists, but it’s in the air of the times.
Le Phigareau

Idealistic thriller with consequences more real than ever.
Senshypercritique

A vibrant call to rearm… radical opposition.
L’univers diplomate

To absolutely be put into practice.
Greta Thunberg

Russia: Anarchist partisans sabotage the war machine

The trial and sentencing of Ruslan Sidiki has exposed both the terror of an authoritarian state and the power of clandestine direct action

~ Josie Ó Súileabháin ~

At the Ryazan garrison military court, Judge Oleg Shishov on 23 May sentenced Ruslan Sidiki to 29 years of imprisonment for bombing railway tracks leading to the front and a drone attack on a military base. Sidiki will have to spend the first 7 in a high-security prison and after that in a high-security penal colony. He would also have to pay about 58 million roubles in fines and damages (about 640,000 Euros).

Russian Railways reported damages of more than 17 million Rubles and the disruption to 61 trains using the same line. Petrochemical outfit Apatit said that 700 tonnes of concrete crumbled and mixed with the soil, causing damage of 38 million Rubles. Bogdan Fedak, a representative of the Ministry of Defence, confirmed the drone at Dyagilyevo airfield caused minimal damage, but it did  threaten “the combat readiness of the military unit” although when pressed, he could not say what the threat was.

“Of course, any loud bang and news of an explosion can scare someone”, Sidiki said in his final statement to the court. “Just as missiles flying over houses and the start of military operations carry with them intimidation of the population of the country against which these actions are being carried out”.

Sabotage of the railways carrying military equipment through Russia into Ukraine rose sharply after the announcement of the full-scale war in 2022. The violent suppression of street protests and anti-war demonstrations has left no avenue but clandestine direct action.

“Early in the morning of February 24th” Sidiki wrote, “I was riding in the train Ryazan-Moscow… I began to monitor the news and saw that a large-scale invasion had begun. It was a very unpleasant feeling (knowing) that you couldn’t do anything. I saw how trains with military equipment are going, out of desperation I wanted to overshadow the gun trucks”.

By early March, Sidiki had written to a comrade in Ukraine to ask if they would fight in the armed forces. The comrade replied: “We burn their equipment in the hundreds, and they wipe our cities from the face of the earth”.

‘Beware, Moscow’

63 trains had de-railed in Russia in the first four months of full-scale war, according to media reports seen by The Insider. Several underground groups were claiming responsibility, uploading reports to social media and sharing recipes for explosives. Russian Railways has claimed that half of these derailments were due to technical problems rather than political sabotage—preferring to be accused of criminal negligence than admit to the scale of actions.

Already in 2020, the Rail Guerrillas in Belarus were active in sabotaging state infrastructure as part of the uprising against dictatorship in the country. In 2022 the focus mainly changed to sabotaging the Russian war machine in Belarus. The same year the Belarussian regime passed legislation that would allow the death penalty for attempted acts of sabotage, and violently crushed the movement in the country.

In April 2022, the Russian security service (FSB) announced it they had detained two Russians who were “supporters of Ukrainian Nazism” and were being charged with sabotage. A video was released as ‘evidence’ for their crimes, with one blurred-faced man talking to camera and wearing a shirt with Union Jacks on it. Their names were not released, but even after an investigation by The Insider, no data could be found on charges being brought in the region reported.

The announcement by the FSB did fit the public narrative of the “de-Nazification of Ukraine” as propagated by Russian leadership a little too well. Behind the scenes, the FSB was looking for the anarchists and other political activists. In the public chat ‘Beware, Moscow’ a message warned that the security service was after a “militant organisation of anarcho-communists”.

According to investigators, the group responsible for several acts of sabotage were not supporters of Ukrainian fascism but their political counterforce; the Combat Organisation of Anarcho-Communists (BOAK). The underground militant direct action group had managed to delay military freight trains by unscrewing 8 nuts, splitting a rail joint and partially dislodging the tracks. “As anarchists and revolutionaries”, a member of BOAK wrote in February 2025, “it was obvious that we needed to stand in defence of society when it faced fascist imperial aggression”.

“The defeat of Ukraine will bring about the triumph of the most reactionary forces in Russia”, another statement from BOAK reads, “finalizing its transformation into a neo-Stalinist concentration camp, with unlimited power concentrated in the FSB and totalitarian Orthodox imperialist ideology”.

Several BOAK comrades went to fight in the resistance in Ukraine, including one of the founders of the combat organisation Dmitry Petrov. From the first day of the invasion of Ukraine, Petrov worked to establish anti-authoritarian and autonomous military units, including the Anti-Authoritarian Platoon that fought until the summer of 2022.

“Right now we are going through a turning point in the history of eastern Europe”, Petrov wrote in ‘To be an independent force’. “In the abyss of events, the small black sail of the anarchist movement is clearly visible”.

In the following year, Dmitry Petrov was killed alongside Finbar Cafferly and Cooper Andrews as they were fighting close to Bakhmut in Ukraine.

Terror state

As Sidiki reflected in court, he was forced underground when “all opportunities to influence the situation peacefully” were cut off. “Whoever opposes war is declared a traitor and subject to repression… it is not surprising that someone would prefer to leave the country and someone will take up the explosives”.

Sidiki’s defence lawyer had argued that the charge of terrorist training should be dropped, referring both to the defendant’s prior knowledge of explosives and drone operations, and the court’s recognition of the defendant as a prisoner of war. Destruction of the property of the military is known as sabotage, Sidiki argued, whereas it is the Russian military targeting of Ukraine’s energy infrastructure that fits the legal definition of terrorism  — “committing an explosion or other actions that frighten the population in order to influence decision-making by the authorities”. Access to water, electricity and gas were severely restricted in order to put pressure on Ukraine’s leadership.

As reported by Mediazona, Sidiki previously reflected from prison, “did I feel like a guerrilla? I think I could be called that. If during the Second World War, people opposing the Third Reich on its territory were called partisans, then I can be attributed to them…”

“Torturing  with electricity and beating up a tied up person is an extremely low act” Sidiki said at his last hearing. “Here, responsibility falls not only on the one who used these methods, but also the one who knows, and the one who does not react and helps hide it”.

Standing in a cage, his final words to the court were from a fragment of a poem by Nestor Makhno:

Let them bury us now,
but our essence will not
sink into oblivion
It will rise at the right time
and win. I believe in it

Dockers successfully block arms shipment to Israel

Dockers successfully block arms shipment to Israel

French and Italian dockworkers unite in practical resistance to the Israeli genocide in Gaza

~ David TNnzk ~

On Thursday, 5 June, workers at the port of Marseille unionised with CGT and backed by a solidarity presidium, successfully refused three containers full of military equipment which were scheduled to be loaded onto the Contship Era, chartered by Israeli shipping company ZIM. 

The shipment included 14 tonnes of machine gun components and spare parts bound for Haifa.

The ship was due to make a technical stopover for refuelling at Genoa on Friday 6 June. A protest presidium was called by the Genoa Port Workers’ Collective (CALP) and the USB trade union. 

Contingency plans were in place: in the event that the French comrades had failed to sabotage the cargo, the Italian dockworkers were prepared to prevent the shipment proceeding further.

However, with the successful action of the Marseille dockworkers, the ship’s departure was delayed. 

The solidarity event on the Italian side was therefore postponed Saturday 6 June.

Once the ship eventually reached the Genoa port, chants demanding ‘stop genocide!’ were heard as a demonstration of more than 300 people marched into the port crossing. 

As requested by their French colleagues, the dockers in Genoa inspected each container to ensure that no military cargo was on the ship.

The next stop was scheduled for Sunday 8 in Salerno, Italy, where demonstrations in solidarity with Palestine were expected to continue. In fact, the Contship Era decided to change course, heading for Sicily.

This event does not come out of the blue. In 2023, the Genoa Port Workers’ Collective had already launched an international mobilisation against the shipment of arms to war zones under the slogan ‘lower the guns, raise the wages’. Earlier this year, after the Greek national strike that opposed both the conservative government and European austerity policies, the International Coordination of Dockworkers was founded. On that occasion, workers in 54 cities of other countries joined in solidarity with the Greek strike, paving the way for wider collaboration. Today, workers’ organisations from Greece, Turkey, Morocco, France and Italy are currently members. The lever that drove this alliance is the desire to jam the war machine by targeting the ports that keep it moving.

Earlier still, in 2019 and 2020, the harbours of Genoa had refused to load war shipments on the Saudi ‘Bahri’ fleet bound for Yemen, inspiring similar blocks in other ports across Europe like: Marseille, Le Havre (Normandy) and Bilbao (Basques).

The Genoa Port Workers’ Collective are also trying to put pressure on the institutions by appealing to law 185/90, which prohibits the transit of armaments to theatres of war. Additionally, dockworkers have raised issues regarding non-compliance with safety regulations concerning the docking and mooring of ships loaded with weapons and explosives. 

The first major stance against the genocide in Gaza was organised by Moroccan dockers in Casablanca, preventing the loading of F-35 components on a ship headed to Haifa.

These partial successes give positive energy and hope in difficult times of war and repression. The logistics sector once again proves to be a focal point for capital; it has itself been developed to supply the armies more effectively. For this movement to be truly effective, all logistics actors must continue to use their structural leverage to enforce a generalised embargo.

Four Detainees Escape Newark ICE Facility

June 13, 2025

Four detainees at an ICE detention center in Newark, N.J., have escaped, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

U.S. Sen. Andy Kim of New Jersey, a Democrat, told reporters on Friday that the men escaped by knocking down a wall composed of drywall and mesh material. The escape occurred amid unrest among the detainees who weren’t receiving enough food and subjected to other poor conditions in the detention center, he said.

Kim, who visited the detention center Friday and got a briefing from officials, told reporters the facility is undergoing a major security review to find out if other walls could be breached.

Immigration attorney Mustafa Cetin said a client of his held at the facility called him Thursday evening and said detainees were knocking things down and blocking security cameras. Cetin said his client reported seeing some detainees knock down a wall and escape.

“Less than a month and a half since this facility opened, we now have learned that there are chronic food shortages, undrinkable water, crumbling mesh walls, and inadequate staffing that led to the chaos that devolved yesterday,” executive director Amy Torres said.

The Delaney Hall detention center has been the site of a standoff between GEO Group and city officials and pro-immigrant groups that oppose the operation of the jail. Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, a Democrat who is running for governor, was arrested at the facility in May after he attempted to inspect the facility at the invitation of members of congress.

Athens, Greece: Taking responsibility for the incendiary attacks on the houses of the politician Maximos Charakopoulos and the cop Giannis Meidanis

We take responsibility for the double attack with low-powered incendiary devices at dawn on 14/05/25 at the entrances of the apartment buildings where the MP of the New Democracy Maximos Charakopoulos and the uniformed scum of the Greek National Police, Giannis Meidanis, reside.

Our moves were not at all accidental as they are a first sign of aggressive solidarity with those arrested for the events at the DAP-NDFK event at the Law School. Our attack had been decided to take place some weeks later. However, we found it necessary to bring it forward because of the events, redefining the climate of fear that Chrysochoidis in unbridled collaboration with the media wants to imbue us with and returning fear to the eyes of those who should be blooming. Because for every visit you make to the homes of your comrades and comrades-in-arms, we will make a visit to yours.

A very faint layer of light unites the political and the personal, like the light of the twilight in the early morning, where you don’t know when the night ends and the day begins, where the boundaries of one are blurred within the boundaries of the other. Our twilight is the moment of explosions, where we gave the night its first colors in the hope that something new would dawn, where we united these two poles (political/personal) through action. But for us the personal does not stop at the individual but starts from it, is not limited to its narrow logics but extends from it. We are not just individuals we are what we stand for, the past has led us to the present and our present to the future. We are our decisions then, these gentlemen have consciously decided to be in the party of the rulers and we are consciously against them. But what happens when your social roles suppress our individuality and our collective evolution? That’s when resistance comes, that’s when the war begins. A thin thread connects us to the struggles of yesterday and we continue so that the struggles of tomorrow have somewhere to stand in order to evolve.

So here we go, one MP and one cop, one represents/exercises the executive power and the other imposes through repression the power of the political leadership of the day. Together they make up two of the four pillars of the state apparatus (the other two legislative, propaganda) the reasons for hitting these targets over time and perpetually for us are self-evident. But in the present day our reasons are concretized and analyzed in particular. Our strategic planning is about bringing justice to the crime of Tempi where our inner sense of justice found you guilty and this is a first glimpse of your “sentence”. It is heard here and there that you put the stationmaster in his place, it is heard that you colluded with your brother Agapios Charakopoulos then director of the Larissa police department where he personally took over the protection of the scene of the incident where he allowed the crime scene to be tampered with and was promoted to brigadier general as a reward for his excellence in covering up your government. You politically abet the criminals and continue to unrepentantly defend your party’s grammar. Isn’t there a lot of that going around, Maxime? They say where there’s smoke there’s fire, and in your case there was both for sure. We heard you say you couldn’t breathe, that you woke up to smoke and flames and that you were afraid of getting hurt. What could the 57 people on the first wagons of the trains have to say, you piece of garbage? What can they say to those who will live with the nightmare of that night haunting them forever? With the smell of burning flesh with the image of severed limbs forever etched in their memory? What are the parents to say as they try to calm down but you and your filthy gang won’t let them? What to say to all of us who know we could have been on that train that night? We could have because we recognize our economic class in this society.

You are wagging your finger at us and telling us that these things do not fit into “democracy”, that you are more powerful, that all these criminal and terrorist elements will be caught. In your democracy and your friends’ democracy nothing else fits because you have taken care of it, as you would not exist if you did not impose your social system and you know it. That is why you have shielded this complex and seemingly impenetrable system of yours with the defences of interlocking. These mechanisms were evident from the very first hours when you began to weave your cover-up plan. Shall we talk about the montage of the dialogue between the stationmaster and the engineer that was created from the first issue and promoted in all the mass propaganda media? About the broken doors and the missing camera footage? For the fuel? For the right-wing think tank findings? For unfinished contracts while brazenly questioning a safety issue through Transport Minister Kostas Karamanlis? About roadside repairs? About prosecutors sending parents to priests? This and much more for your congregation in your attempt to get away with it.

This murder is a state crime in a huge list of crimes either in the field of wage slavery such as the deaths of port workers who work for shipowners who make millions, or in hospitals where health workers struggle with minimal resources to save lives that are being lost as the National Health Service becomes increasingly understaffed, or crimes like Pylos with its anti-immigration death policies and the murders of the garbage of the police. Police and the garbage of the riot police on migrants in the hellhole or out on the streets. These are all murders that revolve around the altar of profit and the survival of the powerful.

The time has come, therefore, to smash the bastards who oppress us with their political hegemony, those who daily reveal to us the most violent facade of institutionalized power. People who are insolent, scoundrels and trumpeters like the whining Maximus who, throwing out dry humanist garbage, talks about ‘defending’ weak citizens and about thugs who poison society in an attempt to victimize it. Your abject self-pity only makes us sick, when you were paving the way for the sympathy of the 57 murdered in Tempi with your brother we didn’t see your ears sweat. You talk about terrorists and we will agree with you because for us it is an integral part of our action to give you back as much of the pain and violence you have caused and to terrorize you to the point of utter terror. For the only true vindication is that which comes at the hands of the urban guerrillas.

The choice of the double attack indicates that our targeting is not only limited to the current events and the search for temporary responsibility but is part of the timeless pattern of counter-attack against the state, capital and power. We are becoming the direct attack, the armed hand that does not wait for when it will be bitten to arm itself but strikes first if it deems it necessary. We become both the prevention and the cure of a sick reality by striking the individual MP and his uniformed protector where they feel most secure. In their homes.It’s time for the anti-authoritarian movement to re-emerge as a threat in the public sphere with attacks of small or large force against the world of power. We must stand up to our political identity. We respond to the repressive barrages with incendiary ones and to the state pressure with more from our side.

We are building in the here and now another world in rupture with the existing one. Organized authoritarianism will always find us in the protection of property and the monopoly of violence. The state is the best means to preserve individual property, the system of injustice and inequality. It is the harmony of organic evolution that creates the variety of colour and form. This is what we admire in the flower. The organized action of people bound together in the spirit of solidarity so that at some point fear will change sides and one day cease to exist.

PS: We dedicate this action as a tribute to the individuals who recently through their action lost their lives by choosing to walk the paths of urban guerrilla.

FIRE AT HILLSBORO DATA CENTER

On Thursday, May 23rd, a thick cloud of putrid black smoke rose over Hillsboro, OR. The smoke was from an early morning fire at one of the massive data centers based in the city. According to local media, the fire originated from batteries inside the Digital Realty (PDX 11) data center. Unfortunately, the flames did not spread to the rest of the data center and the damage was minimal. Firefighters let the fire burn itself out for five hours. The fire caused major disruptions on the web, including big outages to X/Twitter, which was reportedly one of the companies leasing space at the data center. There is currently no public information about the cause of the fire.

Hillsboro, Portland’s Western neighbor, is home to several major data centers that are the engines of digital control and technological domination. Incentivized by tax breaksand lax regulations, Hillsboro (AKA the Silicon Forest) has become an important international hub for the tech industry. Data centers and chip manufacturer like Intel have expanded their footprint there in recent years, and the AI boom is likely to bring in more new construction. This rapid expansion requires hugely increased power supply; the upgrade of existing transmission infrastructure, the installation of new “green” energy facilities in Eastern Oregon, and even proposals to construct nuclear power plants along the Columbia river. Portland General Electric (PGE) planned on clearcutting several acres in Forest Park to make way for new high-voltage pylons. From Against the Silicon Forest: “These power lines are designed to bring power to the Silicon Forest, most notably given the timing of this expansion, to Intel, whose largest operating hub lies just a short distance west of Forest Park.” The project is currently in limbo, awaiting the next action from PGE (PGE can choose to appeal the land use ruling and win approval from the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals).

Data centers in Hillsboro, Oregon.

The Hillsboro data center network is connected to critical subsea fiber lines that land off the Oregon coast to the West. The fiber network heads East, where it hits a junction of sorts in downtown Portland. The Pittock Internet exchange (921 SW Washington Street) is a major “carrier hotel” where fiber optic lines meet. From there, long haul fiber lines carry information to other parts of the state and country. Even though the internet can feel like an invisible beast, like any other machine, it is really just a bunch of wires and parts, which can be made visible with a little bit of research.

Fires like the one that burned on Thursday are pleasant reminders that the realm of technological control is not just digital; that the megamachine, no matter how massive and impenetrable it may feel, is still just a machine that can be destroyed like any other. Although Thursday’s fire may have been accidental, it still is a glimmer of hope and a suggestion of a path for attack. In March, anarchists torched several pieces of heavy machinery at the construction site for a new data center East of Atlanta. News of claimed and unclaimed attacks against internet and telecommunication infrastructure are more and more frequent. As the techno-industrial world grows evermore connected at breakneck speed, opportunities for sabotage are everywhere, if we dare. Let’s arm our desire for a world beyond ecocide and alienation and strike where it hurts!

No possibility of liberation is conceivable without stopping the machinery of death, without its desertion and destruction.
