UNOFFENSIVE ANIMAL – COMING TO A DEMO NEAR YOU!

If you or any of your local groups need some extra support at your actions, give us a shout! At the collective we are looking to support as many organisations from different avenues as possible through offering workshops, advice and coming to your demos. With our travelling activists, we are able to mobilise and travel to you!

You’ll find us next at the Earth First! winter moot in the UK in February, where we will be hosting an exciting workshop.

Drop us a message and let us know what’s going on in your area!

SEE YOU IN THE NEXT RIOT.

HAMBI UPDATE! – UNOFFENSIVE REPORTS

After the cops threatening with barricade eviction and us waking up very early to have tofu sausages and a bit of fun with the “authorities” they didn’t turn up to play. What can we say, their lack of professionalism is tangible!

We have heard that hambis have been working hard reinforcing the entrances to the forest so that might be why they decided to prepare a little more. Who knows what the ecoterrorists have up their sleeve?!

They will come and we will be waiting for them with fun, games and a lot of creativity!

Until then… HAMBI BLEIBT!!

SEE YOU IN THE NEXT RIOT.

HAMBACHER FOREST UPDATE

 
It has been an interesting couple of weeks in the forest. With actions almost every day and sabotages being reported on multiple occasions, it surely has been a fun time in the forest during the winter holidays.
 
Unoffensive arrived a couple of days ago to find out that RWE was demolishing a (now ghost town) village close to the mine to be able to keep digging.
 
The locals were broken and disheartened, seeing the old church being demolished was something that none of them was expecting to happen.
 
The morning of the demolition, some activists from Greenpeace climbed the church and did a banner drop whilst Hambis occupied neighbouring rooftops to stop the machine from demolishing the buildings.
 
Sadly, the cops managed to take everybody down and RWE was allowed to carry on with their work.
 
Everybody was taken to the police station and later released without charges.
 
Meanwhile, the local filth has informed us that they are interested in evicting the barricades INSIDE of the forest and also that they would like to bring politicians from the parliament to visit the occupation. We cannot promise that they will have it easy.
 
THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES. WE ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
 
HAMBI BLEIBT!

“ALF liberate ex breeding ‘stock’ turkey from a slaughterhouse, whisked away to a life of freedom away from harm.”

FISHING BOAT BURNT

 

29th December, Brasil.

FISHING BOAT BURNT

“According to an anonymous report on vozesemluto.wordpress.com, ALF activists sabotaged an illegal fishing boat off the coast of São Paulo on the night of December 28. The nets and the boat were set on fire”

RWE COMPOUND SABOTAGED.

4th January, Hambacher Forst.

RWE COMPOUND SABOTAGED.

anonymous report:

“2018 has begun – RWE are smashed!

We are a group of autonomous anarchists. We are nature defending itself, acting to protect the Hambacher Forest and the world from RWE and capitalism.
In this action, an area of RWE was destroyed. The area was previously part of the forest. RWE cut all the trees, destroyed the habitat of the living beings, built new structures, fenced it off, and observed it with cameras. These structures would help them to destroy the rest (226 hectares) of the 12,000 year old forest (originally 5500 hectares) for their profit with lignite/browncoal, which produces 90 million tons of CO2 per year.

This are was opened by us again and given back to the forest. The material they used to kill the forest is now being used to protect the forest. The structures inside are no longer available to RWE, so they cannot use them to destroy the forest further. We left messages to RWE, expressing our feelings towards them.

As RWE cut trees in the Hambacher Forest outside of the winter cutting season, it shows that they do not care about the law any more than we do. We do not want them to claim this area of mutilated forest for themselves, and will make it as difficult as possible for RWE to build new structures here and anywhere else in the Hambi.

RWE bribe local community organisations, and put pressure on local resistance groups. Police claimed that more militant action would result in greater repression, and would cause them to evict and cut the forest, making it the fault of activists that trees are cut. This action is to show that the resistance will not stop just because they are trying to scare us.

This is just the start of the fight back for 2018. The resistance will be really intense now, and will escalate to be even worse if there are any evictions. It was said before the cutting season that no tree will be cut for free – the more they cut the more expensive it will be. The same for evictions. Therefore it would be better for RWE if they shut the mine now and leave the forest.

Happy new year! RWE bleibt nicht!”

SOLIDARITY WITH THE J20 DEFENDANTS

 

20th January, 2018.

On January 20th, 2017, tens of thousands of protesters welcomed Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day with blockades, protests and militant actions. As a result, the state arrested 230 people and 200 of them were later charged with “property destruction”, “inciting a riot”, “conspiracy to riot” and “taking part in a riot”. This means that each one of these people is facing 61 years in prison.

A call to action has been announced for the 20th of January, 2018, to show solidarity with the defendants.

Banner drops, graffiti, anti-capitalist stalls, anti-fascist documentary screenings and militant actions are encouraged under the frame of “Call for worldwide solidarity with the J20 defendants”.

Show them love and solidarity and do your part. Show the estate wherever you are that repression against our comrades will only increase the chances of an uprising. Make the governments afraid again!

SOLIDARITY WITH OUR ANARCHIST COMRADES!
