Un claro llamado a la acción!!
En el marco de las movilizaciones por la huelga de hambre del compañero anarquista italiano Alfredo Cospito que se extiende por 104 días, lxs presos anarquistas y subversivos recluídos en la Cárcel La Gonzalina-Rancagua damos inicio hoy 31 de enero a un ayuno solidario como gesto mínimo de complicidad ante tan trascendental y determinante lucha que está llevando a cabo el compañero para terminar con el aislamiento al que lo tiene sometido el Estado italiano y contra la cadena perpetua a la que recientemente fue sentenciado.
La situación es de suma urgencia y no caben momentos de espera y reflexión que sólo fortalecen la…

In this week’s show, Prof. Wolff explains why capitalism does not deserve credit for improved living conditions, Home Depot billionaire blames US capitalism’s problems on US workers being “lazy, fat, and stupid,” Southwest Airlines as example of failures by both corporations and their gov’t “regulators,” George Santos as creature of capitalist advertising.

Hunt Declared On LEOPARDS and Abrams On Ukrainian Front Lines: Huge Rewards NOW Offered for Kill or Capture – VIDEOS
The notorious tanks are only a small part of all the military supplies that are continuously moving to Ukraine; but they became an important political reason for NATO to demonstrate its alleged cohesion and generosity.
In Russia, they responded to the upcoming arrival of German and American tanks on the Donbass front lines with their own media campaign.
Many public and private figures announced generous rewards for captured and destroyed tanks.
On January 29, a famous Russian actor, on behalf of “some representatives of a large Russian business”, announced a prize of 10 million rubles for each Abrams destroyed.
A couple of days ago, the Russian company FORES announced a reward of 5 million rubles for the first destroyed or captured American M1 Abrams or German Leopard 2.
The initiative was also supported by government agencies. The governor of the Trans-Baikal Territory will pay to fellow countrymen 3 million rubles for the seizure and 1 million rubles for the destruction of the German Leopard tank of any modification. US Abrams tanks are cheaper — 1.5 million for the capture and 500 thousand rubles for the destruction.
These are just some of the announced prizes. The hunt begins, and the stakes are rising.

Clashes and demonstration in Trastevere in solidarity with Alfredo Cospito on 101st day of hunger strike (Rome, Italy 28th January 2023)
From Act for freedom now!
We are publishing a short contribution on the demonstration held Saturday 28th January in Rome in solidarity with comrade Alfredo Cospito 101 days from the beginning of the hunger strike.
Alfredo Cospito: Hunger-striking Italian anarchist moved amid protests …A convicted Italian anarchist who has been on hunger strike for weeks has been moved to a jail in Milan amid growing fears his health is worsening. Supporters of Alfredo Cospito, 55, have torched…
Near the gathering in piazza Trilussa – which lasted several hours and from which a demonstration had been unable to set off – after some of those present had slipped out of the encirclement, there were some clashes with the repressive forces, they soon found themselves in difficulty due to being partially surrounded and to the determination of comrades to hold the streets (but they managed to stop a comrade near Piazza Trilussa).
After the clashes, a demonstration was held in the small streets of Trastevere.
At the end of the demo a few dozen comrades were stopped by the DIGOS, police in riot gear and carabinieri.
All 41 people apprehended during the day, taken to the police station and released without restriction from the early hours of Sunday 29, were charged with Article 337 of the Criminal Code (resisting a public official). Below is a brief informative note issued on 29 January itself.
In these days when the comrade’s health condition is rapidly and dramatically worsening, with this initiative the comrades present affirmed the importance of a presence and consequent conflictual practice to be held in the streets, in solidarity with Alfredo in support of the hunger strike. We continue the struggle with rage and determination Alfredo out from 41 bis!
*****
Yesterday in Rome struggle in the streets against 41 bis and life imprisonment without parole, with Alfredo Cospito 101 days on hunger strike.
The police wanted to surround the demonstrators, they were surrounded. The riot police in total confusion charged the DIGOS twice, managing to send one of them to hospital.
The boss of the square wanted to prevent a harmless demo, he got two hours of wild demonstration in Trastevere, which resisted by barricading itself and repelling numerous charges in the alleys.
While it is true that most of the 41 arrested could have been avoided if it had been realised a few minutes earlier that the party was coming to an end, this does not detract one iota from the message of anger at the imminent execution of our comrade coming from the streets. If anything, it reinforces it.
A big thank you to all the rebels and solidarity with all those accused.
Long live anarchy

324 Tanks, Now NATO Readies Warplanes and Entire Domestic Economies for Ukraine
MILAN, Italy. January 30th, 2023. High-ranking officials of both NATO and the Russian Federation have now admitted the two entities are at war, the former saying it outright, the latter saying NATO countries with supply lines of weapons to Kyiv could be “legitimate military targets”.
“The idea that we’re going to send in offensive equipment and have planes and tanks and trains going in with American pilots and American crews – just understand, don’t kid yourself, no matter what y’all say, that’s called World War III,” said President Joe Biden in March of 2022.
