RBS attacked with rocks & fire over Tar Sands project (UK)
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010
Received via contact form.
23 February 2009
In the early hours of Tuesday 23rd February 2010, anarchists attacked the Royal Bank of Scotland HQ in the heart of developing Bristol, UK.
Despite road traffic and proximity of security, the mob succeeded in breaking windows, smashing paint-bombs against upper floors and setting fire to tyres in the middle of the road.
A litany of abuses by RBS or any other bank could continue for pages, but it is enough to state that every bank is part of the financial prison which incarcerates and impoverishes all of us.
These actions will escalate and multiply.
We dedicate this action to all indigenous fighters and their allies struggling against the Tar Sands project in Kanada which RBS is an investor in, and also all those who fight against the 2010 Winter-Olympics.
This action is also in solidarity with Alfredo M. Bonanno, Christos Stratigopoulos, Polykarpos Georgiades, Vaggelis Chrisohoides, Giannis Dimitrakis, Gabriel Pombo da Silva, the entire London G20 defendants/prisoners and all other prisoners in struggle.
For international struggle against capitalism and the state.

“The Attack Continues” by Gabriel Pombo da Silva
Sunday, January 31st, 2010
Dear comrades,
Behind us we feel the strength of our gesture of insurgent love; informal and coordinated, lived and felt in as many ways as our creativity, our imagination, our desires and resources, (personal or material), have allowed and guided…
It seems to me that I am not the only one who has been moved by the interest that this hunger strike stirred up, by the demonstration of revolutionary solidarity and its results. I also don’t think I’m the only one that wants to see that all that was experienced and shared during these days remain “only” a gesture… Gestures are for remembering (monuments, comrades, situations, etc.), but IDEAS and ACTIONS are for continuing and advancing… (more…)

End of hungerstrike for prisoners in struggle
Saturday, January 2nd, 2010
Comrades visited Gabriel Pombo da Silva in Aachen prison, Germany, during these previous days. He was fine, not suffering so much and very happy to get news about the solidarity actions that took place in different places. He will begin to eat again tomorrow and was already thinking about that. The comrades also spoke with Gabriel about making a balance from what happened, but it will take time before the text appears.
For the destruction of all prisons and borders forever.
For revolutionary struggle against capitalism.

Bombing at Banco Frances, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Bombings at BBVA Bank and Kenworth Company, Ecatepec, Mexico
Bombing near Federal Prison System HQ, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Freedom for Marco Camenisch (Switzerland)
Wednesday, December 30th, 2009
Marco Camenisch was born on January 21st 1952 in Switzerland, in a small village of the Graubunden region. At the beginning of 1980 Marco was arrested for damaging electricity pylons and transformers, once against the NOK company (which ran nuclear power plants in Switzerland) and once against their distributors, the Sarelli company. The sentence was very harsh: 10 years. Marco was well aware this reflected the seriousness of what was at stake: the ecocide perpetrated by the the power industry as part of the wider system of destruction, which formed the target of his own struggle.

From the 20th December 2009 to the 1 January 2010, Gabriel Pombo da Silva, anarchist imprisoned in Aachen, Germany, has declared a hungerstrike which prisoners from at least three jails in Chile including Axel Osorio have stated they will join.
