SUPPORT HAMBI 9!

3rd February 2018.

Hambacher Forst Besetzung has issued a blog post calling to action in response to the highly repressive imprisonment of 9 people of the forest after the last barricade eviction.

Whether a lunch-demo in front of your neighbouring prison, direct action against the machine and RWE, pain and colour actions at RWE shops, peaceful blockades and vigils, climbing actions to exhaust the number of climbing cops in the country or a prisoner support and letter-writing evening there are actions to be taken by anyone according to their action level and legal situation.

The idea is simple, targetting around the world any RWE institution, but also saying no to the “justice” system and confronting tribunals, courts and prisons.

Show solidarity with your comrades around the world. Stand up against repression. Say no to this capitalist climate genocide. It is our time to fight back.

If you have ideas, want to share anything with the collective or want to report actions, use [email protected] as your contact.

UNTIL ALL ARE FREE.

NEW ANIMAL RIGHTS PRISONERS. 

Sven and Natasha were sentenced yesterday. Charged with “conspiracy to blackmail” on their involvement with the highly successful SHAC campaign, Natasha was given 2 years in prison suspended for 2 years (which means that her conditions will be horrible and alienating and that if she breaches ANY she could be sent to prison) whilst Sven was given 5 years in prison.

This is a show of the state repression and their protection of capitalism. This is another example of how the system works to protect itself, to put profit over anything else, to eliminate the threats.

Sven, Natasha and many others involved in SHAC were true warriors against vivisection. They were fearless and they were effective. They run a campaign so incredibly powerful that the government had to make up laws to stop them.

Don’t let the state win and do not let Sven or Natasha feel alienated.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT! 

Over the past week, we have received a lot of donations. Sadly we didn’t reach out the amount we needed so we are gonna have to rearrange trips and miss out on a little bit of the adventures, but we will be still travelling and covering the major events!

It humbles us that so many people are willing to put a little bit of money so we can do our job. We cannot express how eternally grateful we truly are.

It is a strange life, in all honesty. Speaking as the travelling activist within the collective, I never know what’s going to happen next. I never know if I’ll be sleeping under a bridge one night and trying to dumpster dive in the worst supermarket of the area or if an activist will be picking me up from the bus stop and cooking the most delicious meal to then sleep on a sofa in the warm. It gives a chance to the adventure, but it also is a great opportunity to learn how to survive. I wouldn’t change it for anything.

In the next two months, we will visit about 5 countries to be on the front line and bring you the stories as they happen. We will give workshops, train activists, take action and help with infrastructure. We will answer many emails asking for direction in people’s activism and send multiple copies of our prisoner support list. We will do what we are supposed to do on the tightest budget possible because we fucking hate money. I will probably keep eating from the bins because food waste sucks and I will most likely sleep on a bench more than one night, but all that is THANKS to you. You enable us to be able to carry on doing all this. You are saving animals. You are fighting climate change. You are speaking up on gender issues and you are rejecting Nazi scum from neighbourhoods around Europe. You are empowering activists directly and indirectly to become a powerful tool against oppression. You are a fucking heroine!

If anyone feels empowered and capable of joining our Patreon, we would be truly grateful. Thank you again and SEE YOU IN THE NEXT RIOT.

LOCKS GLUED, NOTES LEFT IN BUTCHERS’ SHOPS. 

22nd January, Italy.

During the night, an ALF cell in Italy connected seven butcher shops in Via Padova. They left notes reading “MEAT=MURDER” and “FREE ANIMALS”. They also made sure that the locks would not open when the butchers try the next morning.

“We wanted to give a clear message to these animal torturers. We are not waiting any longer. Every day there are thousands of animals imprisoned, deprived of their lives and freedom to end up in a slaughterhouse with a blade on their throats. Horses, cows, lambs and rabbits are treated like objects and not sentient beings. This is unacceptable and we must stop this violence by any means necessary.

HAMBACHER FOREST UPDATE!

The barricade eviction is underway. The police violence is increasing by the minute, almost all tripods and monopods have been evicted.

The arrestee tally goes up to 15 as of right now, but it will increase. There are random police controls around the forest where people have to undress. Someone came out of a search with injured ribs.

Meanwhile, the hole is still occupied by someone, although a generator and lights have been brought so it seems that the cops are going to dig for a lil while tonight.

We need people to be fighting in every corner of the world right now. Show the system that you do not agree with the massacre that the world will endure if we lose our trees and animals. FIGHT BACK.

NO COMPROMISE ON DEFENCE OF THE EARTH!

HAMBACHER FOREST UPDATE!

COPS ARE INSIDE OF THE FOREST. They have decided to enter to clear the barricades. Multiple people are being arrested, The Meadow has been cordoned out and there are activists in tripods and monopods all over the place.

An activist has been found 5 meters deep underground chained up to a lock on.

This is your time to act. Wherever you are in the world, find an RWE target and cover it with paint, sabotage it, attack it in any way. If you are in Germany, hang an activist from a motorway bridge so climbing cops have to be diverted from the forest.

WE ARE ALL RESISTANCE.

HAMBI BLEIBT!!!!
