“On Columbus day, in the early morning we vandalized a colonizer statue on the Wissahickon trail. Phrases included: Decolonize, Land and Freedom, No Borders, No Nations, No More USA, (A)
We also covered the colonizer’s face, hands, and scroll in red paint.

Fighting colonization is a way to nurture a less hierarchical relation with the land and those that live on it.”

“In the last few hours, climate activists broke all the front windows of Schlumberger’s fossil fuel research centre located on the University of Cambridge’s West Site. Reporting their actions to the direct action website This Is Not a Drill this morning, the activists said they did this in reaction to the news that over a third of Pakistan had been flooded due to climate change caused by oil and gas extraction. They targeted Schlumberger because it’s the world’s biggest fossil fuel services company and the largest provider of oil and gas technology to fossil fuel companies in the world. The research centre targeted is of strategic importance as it’s one of just five the company has around the world.

One participant, who did not give their name, said: “Schlumberger is the home of oil and gas in Cambridge. They’re the biggest offshore drilling company in the world and do untold harm to us. They have 36,000 fossil fuel technology patents, work with every single major oil company, and have a test oil drill in their Cambridge research centre connected to huge tanks of mud to simulate drilling the seabed. Their well-paid scientists and engineers could absolutely find jobs in renewables or other positive sectors if they wanted to, but it seems they just don’t care that their work kills people or that their employer steals and destroys land and water from indigenous people. The company is evil. They have to go.”

Another anonymous activist said: “We’re so tired from the anger and despair we feel towards the University of Cambridge, our government, and other institutions that are supposed to be doing good but constantly and by default do the opposite. They pay for, host, and promote these awful companies who murder our friends in the Global South and destroy the planet simply to make money. We’re tired of trying again and again to make positive change in a system designed to ignore us while rich companies, insulated for now from the carnage, laugh at our suffering. We’re done blocking roads and we’re done chanting. We’ve come to disarm fossil fuel companies wherever we find them and we call anyone else who can’t stand the death and indifference any longer to join us. Pick your target – there are plenty in Cambridge and thousands more around the UK. Together, decentralised, we can dismantle the fossil fuel empire that cares more about its executives’ private jets than it does about our lives.”

“LET’S OPEN THE HUTCHES OF THE WORLD!  
 
Small hutches or large camps, a stolen freedom is a stolen life. No matter the size of the concentration camp, imprisonment is an abomination, we have the duty to open them all! Before their programmed murder… Let’s free the mothers and their babies and prevent the criminals from giving birth to millions of fattening slaves! 
 
How magical it is to see you discovering grass… How magical it is to see you cavorting in the freedom of nature… Nature… Your home…  
 
No more fences, no more sham! Let’s open the cages to stop the carnage! 
Let every animalist open a camp, let every animalist open the cages of hell to hope for Justice in this prison world… 
 
Sisters and brothers, we liberate you at night so that your freedom may see the day… 
 
Women of the world fighting for a world of peace and freedom.”

“OUVRONS LES CLAPIERS DU MONDE ENTIER ! 
 
Petits clapiers ou grands camps, une liberté volée est une vie volée. Peu importe la taille du camp de concentration, l’emprisonnement est une abomination, nous avons le devoir de tous les ouvrir ! Avant leur assassinat programmé… Libérons les mamans et leurs bébés et empêchons les criminels de faire naître par millions les esclaves d’engraissement ! 
 
Qu’il est magique de vous voir découvrir l’herbe… Qu’il est magique de vous voir faire des cabrioles dans cet espace de liberté qu’est la nature… La nature… Votre maison…  
 
Plus de clôtures, plus d’imposture ! Ouvrons les cages pour arrêter le carnage ! 
Que chaque animaliste ouvre un camp, que chaque animaliste ouvre les cages de l’enfer pour espérer une Justice dans ce monde carcéral… 
 
Sœurs et frères, nous vous libérons la nuit pour que votre liberté voit le jour… 
 
Des habitantes du monde se battant pour un monde de paix et de liberté.”

“WE CAME BACK FOR THE RAINBOW TROUTS

A few months ago, we went to an organic trout farm in Brittany, France. We liberated 16 animals from it in a river. We thought that this was not enough and came back there in the beginning of September.

We liberated 24 other trouts from this farm, and then we sabotaged the fish vacuum pump, a machine used to get the animals out of the water before killing them. We cut the electric cables, the pipes, and removed various parts of it. The machine might be repairable, but it will surely cost time and money to the breeders.

In our last report, some people accused us of endangering the wild animals by freeing the trouts in nature : we did not act without thinking and searching. There is no risk because of the few number of individuals released and their inability to reproduce themselves in a such environment.

However we would be pleased to see other direct actions that help the fish, so often forgotten in the antispeciesist fight.”

5th September, Leicestershire UK.

“While checking in on local wildlife a group of activists came across a whole heap of shotgun pellets and a pheasant feeder. That night the country was hit by fierce storms that damaged the feeder deeming it unusable!

Note wherever animals are being killed storms will continue to rage!”

19th September, Santiago, Chile.

At dawn, hooded people arrived at a butcher shop belonging to the Susaron chain, in Quilicura. Once there, they threw Molotov cocktails against their trucks and infrastructure.

The result of the action was the burning of 6 vehicles and part of the refrigerator of the animal exploitation area.

Pamphlets found in the place said: “The attack is expanding and we are growing in daring, mind and danger. Be careful, the groups of intransigent anti-species belligerence are blooming like daisies. Today we attack this company in its infrastructure, tomorrow it will be its owners and collaborators of any kind. For all of them we predict lead and shrapnel.

Animal liberation, without consideration to whoever comes across it.”

12th September, Portland, USA

“I went out at night and smashed the windows of a butchery Laurelhurst Market.

I climbed inside and poured rat poison on the animal carcasses in their walkin and deep freezer.

I then emailed them telling them that their animal carcasses were poisoned.

If they continue anyways, I hope it hurts.”
