“The whole experience has been tough, but all the kind and strengthening words and wise thoughts from strangers made it much easier!” (Former Swedish Animal Rights Prisoner)

Welcome to the October 2009 edition of Spirit of Freedom. Unfortunately we have to start this newsletter with some bad news. Literally in the last few days ELP has learnt of the jailing of two new eco-prisoners, one is Sweden, one in America.

Last month Swedish eco-activist, Jonatan Strandberg was informed that his appeal against the length of his prison sentence was unsuccessful and he was
informed he would be returning to prison. We were informed that Jonatan would be returning to prison at the start of this week and today we received the depressing news that Jonatan is now in prison.

ELP has been proud to know Jonatan for a few months now (ever since his first arrest) and we have always admired the way he has remained true to his beliefs and taken a very accepting view of the fact he might have to return to prison. However despite his own difficulties Jonatan has also worked hard for prisoner support, writing to new prisoners and encouraging those who found themselves behind bars to stay focussed on the positive.

In the same way Jonatan has helped the prisoners whilst he was on the outside it is now our turn to help Jonatan and we very much hope people will send him letters of support.

Besides Jonatan’s imprisonment, ELP has also learnt of the jailing of an American environmentalist, Stephen Murphy, who is accused of involvement in an attempted arson on a town house construction site in 2006. The day after the attempted arson construction workers discovered that at least one of their construction vehicles had been vandalised and ELF slogans written on it. Stephen is currently held in Texas but is expected to be transferred to Los Angeles in the next few weeks where the alleged attempted arson occurred.

Also, with regards to new prisoners, British animal rights activist, Dean Cain, has been returned to prison following the breaching of his parole conditions. Dean was on parole for his involvement in activities at a rabbit farm which breeds rabbits for vivisection.

ELP has also learnt that American animal rights activist, Jordan Halliday, who recently served time in prison for refusing to testify before a Grand Jury, has been indicted on contempt charges and therefore may soon return to prison again. His trial is due to start in November 2009.

Also, as a number of ELP supporters will be aware, earlier this month the long-term American environmental prisoner, Jeff ‘Free’ Leurs was released from prison. This took everyone by surprise, not least Free. However his release proved to be an administration error and he was quickly returned to prison. ELP is disgusted that Free has been returned to prison, especially as he is due for release in a couple of months anyway, and we feel that his treatment is nothing but psychological torture.

Other prisoner news, the British animal rights prisoner John Smith has asked to have his name removed from all prisoner support lists.

But happily ELP does have some positive news amongst all the negative news. British animal rights activist, Sean Kirtley, who was jailed for running a LEGAL campaign group which protested against vivisection, has been released from prison. This is fantastic news and ELP wishes Sean all the best for the future.

And on that note, we shall end this editorial news update. But before we go we shall repeat what we always say – All of the prisoners listed below welcome letters of support. Regardless of what languages you speak, regardless of where you live in the world, your letters of support really do make the world of difference to the prisoners. So please support the eco-prisoners and no compromise in defence of Mother Earth!

If anyone notices any of ELP’s prisoner details is out of date or we do not list a prisoner who we should list, please let ELP know as soon as possible.
ELP is run by a small group of volunteers and although we try to ensure our lists are accurate, we admit we do make mistakes. So help us help keep the lists accurate by letting us know of any changes we need to make.

Four Lock Down to Coal Truck on Kanawha County Strip Site

October 22nd, 2009
For Immediate Release
Contact: Dea Goblirsch and Charles Suggs 304 854 7372
Email: news@climategroundzero.org

QUARRIER, W.Va.- Four protestors locked down to a coal truck entering a mine site in the vicinity of Quarrier and Decota at 7 a.m. this morning. Four other protestors joined them on the Kanawha County site, hanging two banners; one across the haul road and another on the back of the truck. The first banner read “Stop,” the second “Stop Mountaintop Removal.”

The nonviolent protestors intend to remain locked to the coal truck until law enforcement removes them. They have taken this action to highlight the detrimental effects of mountaintop removal mining, including its lack of economic sustainability.

“By blocking this road, we aim to bring attention not only to Appalachia’s disappearing mountains, but also to its disappearing job market,” said Jonathon Irwin, 23.

The highly active site is near Cabin Creek and Paint Creek, an area rich in union history. The two creeks were the locations of the first West Virginia mine war, fought from 1912 to 1913. Striking miners from 86 underground mines fought for higher wages, unionization and more autonomy from the company-town model.

Mechanization, which allows for strip and mountaintop removal mining, has drastically decreased mine jobs in West Virginia. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in the early 1950s there were between 125,000 and 145,000 miners employed in the state; in 2004 there were just over 16,000. Draglines and other advances in technology resulted in a 37 percent decline in mining jobs between 1987 and 1997, while coal production rose 32 percent during the same period. As of 2007, the difference in coal production was roughly cut in half and jobs increased by 1,048.

Coal jobs are also threatened by the limited amount of remaining mineable coal. Nick Rahall, a Congressional representative from Raleigh County, claimed in a State Journal article that we only have twenty years left in West Virginia’s most productive coal seams and that the state should begin looking at alternative energy options.

Some communities have taken initiatives themselves; the Coal River Wind Project proposes turning Coal River Mountain in to an industrial wind farm. This would create 200 jobs for a two-year construction period and 40 to 50 permanent jobs. A mine on Coal River Mountain would create 57 jobs per million tons mined, according to a 2007 Mine Safety and Health Administration report. This is substantially below the U.S. Department of Energy estimates of 95 employees per million tons mined for southern West Virginia sites. The three mine sites proposed for the mountain have been estimated to be active through 2025, whereas the wind farm could last as long as the wind blows.

The protestors are also bringing attention to mountaintop removal as a national issue.

“There is a coal plant a block from where I live [in Oberlin, Ohio],” said Erika Zarowin, who locked down to the truck, “I get my heat and electricity from coal.” Some of the coal burned in Oberlin, like the coal bought by most American power utilities, comes from mountaintop removal.

Editor’s Note: Later information confirmed that the protestors were not in fact locked to a coal truck, but four were chained across a haul road, while four unrolled banners.

Details of EF! Winter Moot announced:

The Earth First! Winter moot is an opportunity for people who feel affiliation with the ideas behind Earth First! to network, discuss and reflect on the UK ecological direct action movement and to plan for the future. Earth First! is about direct action to halt the destruction of the Earth. We believe we can make a real difference by doing it ourselves rather than relying on leaders, governments or industry.

This years Earth First! Winter Moot will be taking place in Co. Durham on the weekend of 6/7th February. As well as evaluations and updates from a number of ecological campaigns from around the country, this year we will have a themed event – The Crisis: evaluation, analysis and possible responses. We will be exploring the interactions between the various ecological, financial and resource crises, examining our own conceptions and experiences of crisis, then tying it altogether to find a way forward using non-hierarchical approaches.

We will also be hosting a discussion on how Earth First and the Camp for Climate Action intersect, to deal with quite a number of issues that emerged at the EF! Summer Gathering, including issues of generational understanding, anarchism vs. liberalism, are we seperate networks, and how can we go forward together in the future. This debate will be taking from 6.15-7.30pm on the Saturday evening of the Moot, and is open to all.

Everyone welcome

More about the Moot
The EF! Winter Moot is an opportunity for people who feel affiliation with the ideas behind Earth First! to network, discuss and reflect on the UK ecological direct action movement and to plan for the future.

Following a popular discussion at 2009’s EF! Summer Gathering 2010’s Moot also aims to hold discussions on the theme of “readying ourselves for unpredictability and instability in the UK and globally”. The current & impending crises of economics, ecology, energy & society fundamentally alter the terrain of struggle; this in turn impacts both the practice and possibilities for a radical ecological movement.

2010’s Winter Moot is to be held in County Durham, an area with a large number of opencast coal mines, both active and at the application stage. The weekend will include opportunities to meet with activists involved locally in campaigns against these.

Cost including vegan food & crash-pad accommodation £20-£30 (depending what you can afford-but please don’t blag-even the organisers will pay).

If you have particular accommodation, access or dietary needs or are bringing children it would help us to know as soon as possible so we can plan suitable facilities; whoever you are please do try & drop us an email at least a week in advance so we can gauge how many to cater for.

Australia’s oldest coal mine blockaded, and three climate camps

500 protest and 13 arrested in peaceful blockade of Australia’s oldest coal mine

500 protest and 13 arrested in peaceful blockade of Australia’s oldest coal mine

Sunday, October 11, Helensburgh NSW – More than 500 people have marched to the front gates of the Metropolitan Collieries where 50 Climate Camp protesters are occupying the entrance road to the mine. They are protesting the mine’s expansion and voicing concerns over water, climate and jobs in NSW.

13 people were arrested on Sunday in total. Eight at the blockade were given $350 fines for trespass and will not face court. Five people were arrested earlier in the day at an action stopping work at Dendrobium mine and charged with trespass.

Concerned locals showed-up in Helensburgh in droves despite reports that intimidation tactics being used in the lead-up and throughout the camp.

“My family came to Helensburgh 100 years ago, there are four generations of coal miners in my family buried in the local cemetery. My grandfathers went to war to fight for what they believe in; I continue that legacy and believe that we need to stop mining coal and fight to stop climate change. That’s why I’m here,” says Matt from
Stanwell Tops.

“While Peabody and the Government are playing the ‘jobs’ card, it is little more than a feeble attempt at a political wedge – the reality is that the expansion of polluting industries is being done recklessly and community members will not tolerate it”, says Climate Camp Spokesperson Jess Miller.

As reported in the The Age on Friday, Peabody spokesperson Jennifer Morgans told AAP, “[The mine expansion] would also create an estimated 350 new jobs, doubling the current workforce to 700, while providing about 1000 indirect jobs throughout the Illawarra region.” However according to Peabody’s own website, “[the] operational workforce is expected to remain stable at 320 people” with an “additional short-term construction workforce of up to 50 people”.

Coal communities network Rivers SOS are mounting a legal challenge in the Land and Environment court against Planning Minister Kristina Keneally, challenging the legality of the mining approval process.

ELF Torches Telmex Cell Tower in Mexico State

The night of October 4th we headed into the brush surrounding the Atizapan viaduct above the Mexico-Toluca highway in Mexico State to sabotage one of the many properties that belong to the earth-destroying Telmex company. It was a huge cell phone tower protected by a metal fence. The environmental impact of placing a tower like this on the land is unquestionably harmful, since to place it in this natural area they had to cut many trees where different species of animals lived; in addition to the many waves that these towers emit they leave the land barren and dry.

In analyzing these effects as well as other things, we arrived at the conclusion that a sabotage must happen right now against this machine that destroys the ecosystem and expands civilization! We will not allow companies like Telmex to continue indulging in the luxury of going around turning the earth into a commodity for a few to profit from without having their properties receive a crushing response from eco-radicals.

That’s why we assembled an incendiary device with six liters of gasoline, we penetrated this private property, destroying their fences, and put the device high above the cables which conducted telephone signals. As expected our gift worked perfectly and the fire completely destroyed the cables in addition to power boxes that they connected to below. They exploded leaving this tower of the filthy Carlos Slim unusable, causing thousands of pesos in losses.
This action is dedicated to all the cells that in September carried out acts that appeared up in mass media outlets. The war against everything that seeks to dominate us continues. Let’s continue on!

Also through this communique we wish to express our most sincere and direct solidarity with those imprisoned on the second of October during the State repression against student groups, alternative media reporters and anarchists in the national capital and in Oaxaca. We know that businesses (including Telmex) demand that the state act as their servant so unequivocally that the state will seize innocent people; we have all witnessed the ineptitude and sham it carried out
against college activist Ramsés Villarreal.

Solidarity with individuals now in prison, by fighting directly against the riot police, should happen by any means. We do not know these people in prison and we are not in the least interested in prosecuting them as surely the soft-anarchists, the Stalinist-anarchists, the red-unionists and other shitty reformist groups would be, neither are we interested in saying whether they are innocent or guilty; that is a measure that the state and its judges decide. Our part is to change tactics to fight and return to the state all the blows that it has given us. Today is the time, the insurgency is day by day and we will no longer wait to arm our revolution.

Frente de Liberación de la Tierra

Spanish:

La noche del 4 de Octubre nos dirigimos dentro de la maleza en el viaducto Atizapan, sobre la autopista Mexico-Toluca
en el Estado de Mexico; para sabotear una de las tantas propiedades de la empresa destructora de la tierra Telmex, se
trataba de una gran torre de telefonía celular la que estaba protegida por una valla metálica. El impacto ambiental de
implantar una torre como ésta en la tierra es indiscutiblemente dañina, pues para imponerla en la naturaleza se tuvieron
que talar diferentes arboles en donde vivían distintas especies animales, contribuyendo así a que muchas de las ondas
que emiten tales torres dejen a la tierra estéril y seca.

Al analizar estas repercusiones y demás cosas, llegamos a la conclusión de que un sabotaje contra tal estado de
maquinarias destructoras de los ecosistemas y que expanden la civilización se debe de dar ahora! No vamos a permitir que
las empresas como Telmex sigan con su tradicional lujo de andar convirtiendo a la tierra en una mercancía para lucro de
unxs cuantxs sin que sus propiedades reciban una respuesta contundente de lxs eco-radicales.

Es por eso que hemos armado un dispositivo incendiario con seis litros de gasolina, hemos penetrado tal propiedad ?
privada? destruyendo sus rejas y hemos puesto tal artefacto arriba de los cables que conducían señales telefónicas. Como
se esperaba nuestro regalo funciono a la perfección y el fuego destruyo por completo los cables además de que las cajas
de poder que se encontraban debajo de éstos explotaron dejando la torre propiedad del asqueroso Carlos Slim inutilizada,
causando perdidas de miles de pesos.

Esta acción esta dedicada a todas las células que en septiembre hicieron acto de presencia en todos los medios de in
comunicación masiva, la guerra contra todo lo que nos quiere dominar continua, sigamos adelante!

También por medio de este reporte queremos expresar nuestra mas sincera solidaridad directa con las personas presas el
pasado dos de octubre durante la represión implementada por el estado contra grupos de estudiantes, reporterxs de medios
alternativos y anarquistas en la capital del país y en Oaxaca, sabemos también que las empresas (en las que también se
encuentra Telmex) exigió a su sirviente el estado de manera tajante que se apresaran personas después de la por todxs
vista, ineptitud y montaje que armaron contra el activista universitario Ramsés Villarreal.

La solidaridad con los individuos ahora presos, por pelear de manera directa contra los anti disturbios debe de
manifestarse de todas maneras. Nosotrxs no conocemos a estas personas no nos interesa en lo mas mínimo criminalizarlos
como seguramente lo harán las agrupaciones de anarco-blandxs, anarco-estalinistas, sindicalistas rojos y demás cagada
reformista, tampoco estamos interesados en decir si son inocentes o si son culpables esa es una medida que el estado y
sus jueces dictan, pero lo que si nos corresponde, es cambiar de estrategia para luchar y regresar todos los golpes al
estado que nos ha dado, hoy es el tiempo, la insurrección es día a día y no vamos a esperar mas para armar nuestra
revolución.

Chile: Luxury cars, meat markets, bank branch vandalized

reported anonymously (translation):

“Santiago, between October 3 and 4, $hile. There are many reasons why we went out to disrupt the order of those who we consider our enemies. During an impromptu tour of the disgusting city, we found bourgeois property, butchers, doctors and bankers, those who protect and maintain their lives through this nauseating system of domination, those who love the monotony of work-consumption, aiming to get just a little power, that’s what gives them the tranquility they need to sleep at night.

reported anonymously (translation):

We sabotaged:
– 4 luxury cars (3 4×4 trucks and 1 car) had their tires split.
– 4 luxury cars were scratched with a sharp, metal tool, leaving chaotic designs ruining the expensive paint jobs.
– 6 meat markets ended-up with the locks on the doors and the padlocks on their shutters sealed with metal pieces and superglue.
– A psychiatric clinic was left with its doors glued.
– A BancoEstado bank branch was attacked with stones, resulting in two windows and the entry door shattered.

Symbols of progress and power, leading promoters of environmental destruction, from toxic substances and the use of fuel to the disgusting smoke they spew as they drive, they build the roads deforesting and killing thousands of natural hectares and following their progress lie the cold bleeding bodies of so many animals. Because of this we decided to attack these machines.
Mutilated and piled up bodies as mere objects of consumption, this is the image that doesn’t bother anyone, with a blindfold over their eyes; anthropocentrism is responsible for making humans believe they are masters of the Earth, exploiting for their own well-being everything that exists on the planet. It’s because of this that we glued the meat markets, where the butchers had to replace and repair the locks and padlocks.
Centers of conditioning, repressors of inherent impulses that pigeonhole people according to their conduct; institutions that seek to change and mold us so we are adapted to their instruments of control, committed to exterminating all dissenting ideas of normalcy and order; that’s why we sealed the doors of a psychiatric clinic, while officials were still inside. In this place they don’t lock up the people who write diagnoses.
Institutions that promote exploitation and progress at the expense of crushing and enslaving people, animals and the earth.

For capitalism everything is a source of power and profit; introducing the ideology of power throughout the world, disguised in multiple forms; it is because of the power that the banks represent that we attacked a bank branch; with a large stone we hit the metal structure, breaking two windows and the door.

We know that these acts of sabotage were not an impediment to the targets and they will continue their work; it was only a momentary break and an inconvenience to those who saw the extent of our exploits.

This is a minimal gesture of solidarity and a greeting for all those who have felt the enemy’s blows on their skin, who have been encaged and separated from their loved ones. We salute our comrade Axel Osorio, who has demonstrated that the cages did not stop him and that his struggle continues from the dungeons, and to Cristian Cancino, accused of being a supplier of gunpowder, to comrades Pablo Carbajal and Matías Castro accused of the attack on the PDI. To comrades Daniel and Francisco, recently on trial in Italy for robbery and subversive association. To our comrades in Greece accused of belonging to a cell responsible for bombings, a cell which continues attacking, showing the futility of the powerful who accuse people who are unrelated to the attacks. To comrades in Mexico, where the powerful also kidnapped a comrade, holding him responsible for the September bombings, comrades stronger than the powerful who try to stop the attacks on authority.

The war has also cost the deaths of many comrades throughout the world, recently it took away our friend Mauri from us, the product of an accident that could have been avoided. Mauri will be remembered as the warrior that he was, loving comrades and desiring the death of enemies, a savage in the war against society, Mauri this is for you and as well as all the actions that are still to come!
For the companion Diego Rios, who 4 months ago made his escape and went underground refusing to fall into the hands of the authority. To him we say, flee, Diego, run and continue to expose the vulnerability of the powerful, from here we embrace every word of your communiques and with these actions we salute you.

We invite all the comrades who read this message to continue attacking the powerful on all fronts. We salute in the spirit of war, and we send our strength through action.

This is just the beginning!

Banda Salvaje e Insurrecta en Guerra Contra la Dominación [Wild Insurgent Group in the War Against Domination]”

Spanish:

“Santiago entre el 3 y 4 de octubre, $hile. Muchas son las razones que nos animan a salir a sabotear el orden de quienes consideramos nuestros enemigos. En el transcurso de un improvisado recorrido por la asquerosa ciudad, nos encontramos con propiedades de burgueses, matarifes, doctores y banqueros, quienes defienden y mantienen con sus vidas estenauseabundo sistema de dominación, amantes de la monotonía del trabajo-consumo encaminados por lograr conseguir un poco de poder, lo que les da la tranquilidad que necesitan para poder dormir.

Saboteamos:
– 4 vehículos de lujo (3 camionetas 4×4 y 1 auto) terminaron con sus ruedas rajadas.
– 4 autos de lujo rayados con un elemento metálico y filoso, dejando marcas de caóticos diseños arruinando sus costosas capas de pintura.
– 6 Carnicerías, las cuales amanecieron con las cerraduras de las puertas y los candados de las cortinas metálicas selladas con pedazos de metal y pegamentoextrafuerte.
– Un clínica de diagnóstico psiquiátrico quedo con sus puertas selladas con pedazos de metal y pegamento extrafuerte.
– Una sucursal del BancoEstado fue apedreada, resultando dos cristales y la puerta de acceso destrozadas.

Símbolos de progreso y poder, principales promotores de la destrucción ambiental con sustancias tóxicas, desde el uso de combustible hasta el asqueroso humo que expelen al moverse, construyen sus caminos deforestando y asesinando miles de hectáreas naturales y tras su avance yacen los cuerposfríos y desangrados de muchos animales. Por eso decidimos atacar
estas máquinas.
Cuerpos mutilados y amontonados como simples objetos de consumo, es este el panorama que no asombra a nadie, con una venda en los ojos el antropocentrismo se encarga de hacer creer que los humanos son amos de la Tierra, explotando para su bien todo lo que en el planeta existe, es por eso que sellamos estascarnicerías, donde los matarifes tuvieron que
cambiar y reparar las cerraduras y los candados.
Centros de condicionamiento, represores de impulsos inherentes que encasillan a las personas de acuerdo a sus conductas, instituciones que buscan transformarnos en moldes adaptados a instrumentos de control, empeñados en exterminar todo idea desidente de la normalidad y el orden, es por eso que sellamos las puertas de una clínica de diagnóstico
psiaquiátrico, cuando los funcionarios aún se encontraban dentro, en este lugar no encierran a personas solo se emiten evaluaciones.
Instituciones promotoras de explotación y progreso, a costa de aplastar y esclavizar a personas, animales y la tierra. Para el capitalismo todo es fuente de poder y ganancias, implantando la ideología del poder por todo el mundo, disfrazada demúltiples formas, es por el poder que representan los bancos que atacamos una sucursal y con una gran piedra golpeamos su estructura metálica, rompiendo dos cristales y la puerta de acceso.

Sabemos que estos sabotajes no fueron un impedimento para que los objetivos atacados continuaran con sus labores, solo fue un frenomomentáneo y una incomodidad para quienes apreciaron nuestras hazañas.

Éste es un mínimo gesto de solidaridad y un saludo de ánimo para todxs aquellxs que han sentido en su piel los golpes del enemigo, que han sido enjauladxs y separadxs de sus seres queridxs. Saludamos al compañero Axel Osorio, que ha demostrando que las jaulas no lo apagan y que su lucha continua desde las mazmorras, a Cristian Cancino acusado de ser proveedor de pólvora, a los compañeros Pablo Carbajal y Matías Castro acusados del ataque a la PDI. A los compañeros Daniel y Francisco recientemente juzgados en Italia por robo y asociación subversiva. A lxs compañerxs en Grecia acusadxs pertenecer a una célula responsable de explosiones, célula que a seguido atacando, mostrando la inutilidad del poder que acusa a personas que no están relacionadas con los ataques. A lxs compañerxs en México, que también el poder les había secuestrado a un compañero responsabilizándolo de los bombazos de septiembre, compañerxs a ser fuertes que el poder intentara por todas las formas detener los ataques contra la autoridad.

La guerra también a costado la muerte de muchxs compañerxs en todo el mundo, recientemente nos arrebato al compa Mauri, producto de un accidente que podría haber sido evitado. Mauri serás recordado como el guerrero que fuiste, amando a tus compañerxs y deseando la muerte a tus enemigos, un salvaje en guerra contra la sociedad, Mauri para ti estas y todas las
acciones que realizaremos!
Para el compañero Diego Ríos, quién ya hace 4 meses emprendió su fuga y asumió la clandestinidad negándose a caer en las manos del la autoridad.
Le decimos huye, Diego, huye y sigue exponiendo la vulnerabilidad del poder, desde aquí abrazamos cada palabra de tus comunicados y con estas acciones te saludamos.

Invitamos a todxs lxs compañerxs que lean este mensaje a continuar atacando el poder desde todos los frentes, ánimo compañerxs que en la guerra nos saludamos y damos fuerza mediante la acción.

Esto es solo el comienzo!

Hit the Production of Climate Chaos – get involved – 13th December call for actions

The climate catastrophe has not happened by random chance and the melting glacier is not its place. Our economic system, the way it produces goods, and the way they are transported and finally consumed is the root of climate change.

We do not believe that this COP will solve the climate crisis. The delegates, NGOs and company representatives are stuck in an ideology of never ending economic growth and universal market solutions to all human-made problems, such as ecological destruction. Social justice issues are consequently ignored.

On December 13th we call for action on this economic system. We encourage affinity groups to take action on targets in Copenhagen, and abroad. In the Morning of December 13th we will also shut down the harbour of Copenhagen through a mass action blockade. The harbour is a key symbol of the global free-market economy. Here becomes visible what is usually hidden: ecological deterioration, economic and social exploitation, and utter injustice.

Since the dawn of colonialism the global shipping industry has been characterized by violence. What was once gold pillaged from the Incas is these days profit based on cheap resources and cheap labour – usually transported by ships. Today, container shipping is one of the foundations of capitalism. There are hardly any regulations: fuel is not taxed, emissions are not subject to control and borders are seemingly non-existent for container ships. At the same time, the never ending need for more cheap goods is almost limitless. The ‘free’ global flow of goods continues to grow – with benefits for only the few.

But whereas these flows of goods can enter the EU/ rich world freely, humans cannot. As soon as people do not have the right passport or enough money when entering rich countries, they are put in prisons, deported and deprived of the most basic human rights. And the militarisation of the seas is not just happening around the EU borders. It is also used to protect international shipping, like in Somalia where international fishing fleets have robbed Somali fishermen of the fundamental elements of their existence.

Finally, international shipping is more than just a method of transport for the global economy. It is in itself a primary cause of climate change. Approximately 5% of Global Greenhouse Emissions are produced by the shipping industry. Container ship fuel is basically toxic waste left over from petrol production, containing high amounts of sulphur and mercury. And like international flights, nobody is responsible for shipping industry emissions under the Kyoto Protocol.

Climate justice and real social change will not come from above. Effective change has to come from everyone – affected, responsible, and observer. True change has to be organized and realized by people all over the world – all people on the streets and in the fields. We say no to the power of governments, companies and so-called non-government organisations which are only interested in maintaining their power, influence and flows of capital.

We will try to stop this madness for a day. Fighting for climate justice means changing our economic system and this needs to happen here in the rich global north, which reaps the most benefits from the disaster. For the free flow of people and ideas, instead of flows of goods to benefit the few.

Contact htp@riseup.net to get involved with planning the action, or come to one of our next meetings: Berlin October 3-4 & Copenhagen October 18.

Banamex bank branch bombed and two HSBC ATMs burned

Subversive Alliance For The Liberation Of The Earth, Animal and Humans bombs Banamex bank branch in Mexico City

Communique:

“BOMB IN BANAMEX BANK BRANCH. Mexico

Once again we have shown who our enemies are; it was in the early morning around 2:00am today that our cell decided to join the battle for the dissolution of civilization. An explosive device was placed in a Banamex branch, located in the southwest of Mexico City, in the Milpa Alta borough. As everyone knows, Banamex is a company that promotes torture, destruction and slavery; the purpose of the attack was to stop these bastards who need to know that we are not playing, that we are not merely vandals. Our enemies know perfectly well why we did it, and their media allies have to cover the truth; well we also have something prepared for them. Stop the construction of the prison in Tláhuac. Fire to the prisons! Prisoners to the streets! Stop the destruction of the nature reserves for line 12 of the metro. Stop the expansion of progress. We have endless reasons why your filthy techno-industrial system provokes our rage and hatred and we say to you now that we will not stop until we see your ashes.

The bank was fucked up, the windows, signs and ATMs were left unusable, the damage exceeded 500,000 Pesos. This town was astonished to see the damages, the police never expected this and even less that we would do it right in front of their faces since a patrol car was only one block from the bank and never suspected the person who passed right in front of them; after a few seconds we fled escaping a second patrol car.

Eco-anarchists burn two HSBC bank ATM machines in Mexico

Communique:

Eco-anarchists went out to fight against evil capitalism during the early morning hours of September 17, with rage and conviction. We turned to one of the many banks that are destroying the planet and causing famine in the poorest countries; shaking their damn egos, we decided to sabotage two ATMs and set them on fire, leaving a clear message ‘Murdering Capitalism.’ We are very pleased to be a stone in the shoes of these damned murderers!

Once again we demonstrated that there are those who will speak for the fallen, for people who are not guilty of all this capitalist and consumerist crap!

Total liberation!
Health and anarchy!
Rage and action!
The flame will burn!
A greeting to all those who fight!”

Earth Liberation Front Torches Seven New Cars at Dealership in Guadalajara, Mexico

Communique:

“Sabotage against car dealership by eco-anarchists in Guadalajara, Mexico

In the early morning hours of September 26 our cell, in solidarity with the attacks of our comrades of the F.L.A., decided to sabotage and to destroy technology which is designed to destroy the environment. We visited a sports car dealership and among the cars there was a Hummer as well as others; the message was clear, EARTH-DESTROYING MACHINE ELF. We set approximately 7 cars on fire, leaving them unusable. These attacks are not by eco-terrorists but are by people who have turned their tears into action and their frustration into rage. Our groups are being sought and investigated by police in addition to the trashy press which is harshly critical of us. It is clear that our attacks are not to hurt people; they are aimed at the economy of a system that destroys the environment and exploits animals. We will not stop these acts because the ALF and ELF are decentralized groups so that if they catch one group other people will continue with attacks.
