Athens -SOLIDARITY INTERVENTION FOR THE REVOLUTIONARY ORGANIZATION C.C.F.
On Saturday night (18/2), more than 60 comrades carried out a solidarity
intervention for the imprisoned members of the Revolutionary Organization
Conspiracy Cells of Fire in 3 neighbourhoods of Athens.
Starting from
Merkouri square in Petralona we came to Thisio and from there to
Monastiraki.
Pamphlets were shared out to the people passing by, the
parked cars but also in the shops of the areas while at the same time
during the course more than 30 thousand flyers were thrown and 2500 texts
were shared out. Chants were also shouted, one of them being:
THE STATE IS THE ONLY TERRORIST
SOLIDARITY TO THE ARMED GUERRILLAS

Athens-Breaking the silence surrounding the case of the anarchist Revolutionary Organization Conspiracy Cells of Fire
Starting with September 2009 and the arrests in Halandri, now 9 members of
the R.O. CCF are locked up in prisons around Greece while other comrades
are dragged by the anti-terrorist force and the judges, from dungeon to
dungeon convicted or detained for the same case.
The attitude of the 9 members of the R.O. CCF from the first moment of
their arrest, their claim of political responsibility, their decent
attitude inside the prisons and their attempt to leave empty cells behind
them feeds our need to stand in solidarity with our imprisoned comrades
more than ever.
The “fast track” court martial taking place in the female prisons of
Koridallos, all that will come and the pilot scheme moves that are trying
to be applied for the first time on them (prosecution for the solidarity
text written by the R.O. CCF and anarchist Theofilos Mavropoulos for the
anarchist ‘steki’ Nadir) will find us next to our comrades and against any
authority.
In such a climate, we cannot remain apathetic, and abandon our comrades at
the mercy of state objectives and practises. We unite our intention,
proceeding to the development of actions of solidarity to the persecuted
comrades, not leaving out of the fire line the authoritarian impose and
stressing with every opportunity the necessity for the increase of
polymorphic refusals against the authoritarian system.
We deny the role of the victim and of course that of the “defeated from
the start” because of the oppression unleashed by the state on the
anarchist movement the last two years. The presence of the
anti-authoritarian movement must become more obvious than ever.
Demonstrations, flyposting, chants on the streets, clashes, occupations,
and attacks comprise its polymorphy. Solidarity towards the imprisoned
comrades who are persecuted for their subversive action or for their
political identity was and is one of our priorities. Because… whoever
forgets the hostages of the war, forgets the war itself. We factually show
our solidarity denying the logics of selective solidarity and divisions.
We unite our forces creating a powerful dyke to the generalized state
oppression. And there is no better way available for the step over than to
act, to show with our moves that we realize the matter of solidarity.
We took therefore the initiative to call an open discussion for the
creation of an Assembly for Solidarity to the R.O. CCF, as well as all the
comrades who are persecuted for the same case. Through this we would like
to send a signal of solidarity to all comrades who are in the target of
the oppression, but also to the organization itself. We desire the better
coordination and the intensification of the action with which we aspire to
promote our solidarity for the case we are dealing with.
We address, therefore, within these frames, a public call to whoever
comrades desires to coordinate themselves with other comrades in the case
of solidarity for the specific matter. Our aim is the active participation
in the open procedures of the assembly, contributing in its support and in
the further broadening of its dynamic. In the hard times we are going
through we owe it to ourselves and our comrades to be as sufficient as
possible and sharp against authority and its civilization. We are sure
that every move of solidarity strengthens the resistances and the
revolutionary conscience both ways, sending the message to the people
guards and the juridical mafia, that the imprisoned comrades are not
alone. The shouts they yell with courage and insistence, the passion for
refusal of authority, are a united voice that upsets the rhythm of
normality and subjugation. And will never stop being heard as long as this
civilization and all things comprising of it, exists…

Responsibility claim for molotov attack on riot cops. Exarxia, Athens 13/12/11
Incendiary/explosive attack on police car in Buenos Aires
Posted on February 11, 2012 by This Is Our Job From Viva la Anarquía! (February 11, 2012):
Internationalism is an act of our subversive hearts.
Continuing within our own context of struggle and “experiences,” we unite with our comrades from the FIRE CELLS CONSPIRACY REVOLUTIONARY ORGANIZATION. Their words are so very close to us, like their actions.
We don’t need great reasons to set fire to opulence, social control, repression, and the treasures of the powerful.
We don’t need great reasons to blow up their valuable items and murderous institutions.
In the early morning of Sunday, February 5, we planted an incendiary/explosive device (consisting of two camping gas canisters and four bottles of naphtha) on one of the new PFA* patrol cars equipped with surveillance cameras. Nearly half the vehicle was burnt up, and all its windows were blown out.
Long live the brothers and sisters of the Fire Cells Conspiracy Organization!
We’re getting closer.

Statement by imprisoned Fire Cells Conspiracy members in solidarity with Marco Camenisch and Zerman Elias
On our part, we are responding to the call by the Street-Fighting Political Prisoner Group (Gonzalo Zapata, Cristobal Franke, Zerman Elias) for international solidarity with Zerman Elias, who was arrested by three undercovers in Chile on September 22 after throwing a Molotov at a police water cannon vehicle during a student march.
Power insulted Zerman with deeply racist comments in order to send the message that, in a climate of total xenophobia, immigrants have to keep quiet. Otherwise, they will be imprisoned and extradited.
Additionally, when the police interrogated him and asked for his collaboration, our comrade refused to even tell them his own name.
We also want to send a solidarity smoke signal to eco-anarchist Marco Camenisch, who is locked up in Lenzburg prison. Marco has been behind bars for 20 years as a result of of his eco-anarchist actions and general activities. On February 8, a prefabricated hearing is scheduled to take place regarding his conditional release, but it’s almost certain that the petition will be rejected by the henchmen of Swiss “justice.”
To these comrades, and to all who are fighting against every kind of power and its civilization, we dedicate the following words:
“Because solidarity among anarchists isn’t just a word.”
For quite some time now, an unusual discussion has been going on. Strangers are talking, sharing, and planning in different languages. They are talking about their experiences and the moments of illegality they lived in opposition to the state and its society. They are sharing the solitude of their cells, altered by days of negation and opposition in the face of the prison guards’ orders and batons. They are planning new rebellions to take the place of the ones that were interrupted by their arrests, and they continue to be anarchists of action, always in combat.
We are thus building the Black International of anarchist prisoners. The Black International isn’t a union that nullifies the diversity and individuality of each imprisoned comrade. Instead, we want it to be a cohesive trajectory that creates bridges of communication between us. Each letter, text, and publication that passes through our hands and each solidarity attack that reaches our hearts is a little “master key” that unlocks, even if just for an instant, the days and nights we spend trapped inside here. This gives us the strength to write about the things we want to experience and the things we have experienced but aren’t apologizing for.
We want the word “anarchy” to be heard in every spoken language and to lash out, through thousands of hands and in thousands of ways, against every moment of power—with texts, Molotovs, explosions, bullets, robberies, kidnappings, and escapes.
Therefore, let these words be a small promise to our brothers and sisters imprisoned in the furthest corners of the Earth. On the anarcho-calendar of possibility, someplace far from the eyes of the police and their snitches, a secret day is marked. On that day, comrades’ names will be matched to their faces, and hands will find the warmth of other hands extended in friendly greeting. At those gatherings, whether near or far, we will be on time and we will make sure to save two seats for you, brothers Marco and Zerman.
Friends among friends, comrades among comrades, conspirators among conspirators, forever anarchists in combat.
Because wolves are never housebroken.
