They Demanded Change.


     Across the planet, an army of anarchists, as individuals and as groups, are organising and acting, with the one aim in mind, to end this brutal, vicious, system of authority and exploitation, to bring an end to this cycle of inequality and injustice. They are aware that we live in a system of unfair exchange, where we the ordinary people exchange sweat for poverty, while those parasites with their hands on the levers of power grow fat on our labour. Though they may not all display the label “anarchist”, this army is growing as more and more people see through the smoke and mirrors woven by the propagandists of the system. It also easier to see the true face of the system, as it's dominance, giving it a false sense security, allows it to dispense with the niceties, and display it's full destructive nature, and run roughshod over our lives.
      Its rampant dominance is also it weakness, as it alienates more and more of the people it depends on for its survival. Its blood supply is cheap subservient labour and consumers, and its open ferocious drive for profit, is alienating ever more of that blood supply.
      This corporate capitalist system functions across all borders and for its defence, draws together the combined force of states across the globe. It will utilise the various arms of any and all states, to crush resistance to its pursuit of profit. More and more of those who resist this brutal exploitation, and struggle for change, are ending up incarcerated in prisons across the world. We should not forget them. They are our people, they are from all quarters of the planet, they called for justice and equality, and the state tries to crush them, to silence them.

      On December 21 2013 comrade Monica Caballero was once again transferred to another prison, this time from the prison of Estremera to that of Brieva (Ávila).  Anarchist comrades Monica Caballero and Francisco Solar were arrested on November 13 2013 and accused of being part of the Comando Insurrecional Mateo Morral and of placing a home-made explosive device in the Cathedral of Zaragoza.  Both comrades had been acquitted in the ‘Bombas’ case. Monica and Francisco are being held in the FIES regime.
 Always in revolt, solidarity and love to Monica and Francisco!

Spain – A letter from comrades Monica and Francisco
      Once again we are here between walls of concrete and bars, surveillance cameras and jailers. Once again we are here with our heads held high and proud to be what we are. Proud to be part of the hurricane that is trying to erase all forms of power, which has once again taken off its mask and is showing its real face in all its brutality and weakness as well. In this case, the collaboration between the Chilean state and the Spanish one which led to our arrest shows how the states can organize themselves in order to face what they perceive as a threat; but the attention the men of power give to us also reflects their fragility. Their incoherent speeches on security are a mantle that conceals their fear that any fortuity can unleash widespread chaos. Their blows and gags just strengthen and sharpen our ideas and lives dedicated to continuous conflict. Our stand: not a minute of silence but a life in the struggle.
      We send a hug to all expressions of solidarity, drives that weaken the prison bars. We intend solidarity as the constant realization of our anarchist ideas in all their forms so as the enemy understands that nothing is over and everything continues in prison and in the streets. Above all, the huge solidarity expressed by the comrades who have used their bodies as weapons and carried out a hunger strike.
      We salute those who continue to weave complicities, those who venture into the unknown, those who are motivated by incertitude, those who are obstinate for anarchy. All our respect and love go to them. We sadly learned of Sebastien’s death, but at the same time his life consistent with his ideals fills us with joy: a real warrior. We are on the side of the comrades who mourn our fallen comrades, bur from here we send them a lot of strength and a ‘see you soon’.
