Unit Nemesis claimed responsibility for the destruction of ATMs in Palembang City, South Sumatra Province and Sidoarjo Regency, East Java in Indonesia. The following is a selection from their communique:
“Above all one thing must be clear, one is only part of the FAI-FRI in the moment of the action, then each one returns to their life as anarchist, nihilist, individualist, to their own projects and rebel or revolutionary perspectives with all their adjuncts of assemblies, coordinations, affinity nuclei, occupations, communes, struggles in the territory and so on and so forth.”
-Alfredo Cospito[¹]
After hundreds of nights spent, after being in a sea of individual adventures, we returned to our basement to continue the urban guerrilla warfare by enabling all methods of action, even though our footsteps were previously heavy enough to make the consistency of our aggressiveness towards social relations overlaid by a civilized moral society and the odious hierarchy and authority of the rulers and the bourgeoisie of the financiers! We still will attack as we are able to do at any time and anywhere! We are a threat to authoritarians and bourgeois financiers who love the monster of democracy for its profit!
On Monday June 12, 2023 at 02:56 AM we vandalized a Bank Negara Indonesia ATM located in front of Sekip Ujung Market, Jl. Amphibi, Palembang City, South Sumatra Province. And an act of vandalism from our conspirators on Wednesday June 21, 2023 at 00:30 AM in the morning at the Bank Tabungan Negara ATM located on Jl. Bibis Bunder, Gesikan, Krian, Krian District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java and at 00:59 AM WIB at the Bank Negara Indonesia ATM on Jl. Raya Kalijaten, Taman District, Sidoarjo Regency, East Java.
Attack and Solidarity
We as informal anarchists also participated in the June 11 solidarity campaign with long-term anarchist prisoners. For us as anarchists it is a must to fight against all existing authorities. There is no need to manipulate the law and ask for negotiations in the greedy scales of the justice system! How can we hate the Existing system of authority and yet we choose the legal path and hide in the faces of idiots whose hearts are full of fear! We as anarchists who are outside prison need to reflect on when the actions of our brothers and sisters who are in prison are so persistent and courageous and merciless to repent even to never regret. This is what we mean by illegality as self-dignity and “What I am”, this is why we distance ourselves from the reformist social-anarchists who follow every legality and hide behind civilized laws!
About attacks in solidarity: why did we choose an object like an ATM? Because it is a symbol of accumulation and a means of power from capital obtained through social democratic conventions that are obeyed by civilized society, there is a poison that spreads to every citizen to make transactions without knowing at all that his life has been eaten up by productivity and consumerism and the impact of other civilizational foundations such as the existence of 3R seduction which only aims to reintegrate into the system (solution of naive reformers ) under the pretext of being environmentally friendly or the issue of Green Energy which is the main topic of the results of the G20 Summit which proposes an energy transition, for example the emergence of the Waste Power Plant⁹ project as the most ecological energy, the fact is that solutive projects like this apart from continuing to expand the system’s profits actually have a more significant impact on global warming with the burning of waste to be broken down into electrical energy and besides that we know that banks are one of the products of civilization that play an important role in funding projects for natural extraction or running the wheel of the techno-industrial system, therefore for us there is no solution and the only is a path of destruction to take revenge by destroying several ATMs. On the other hand every fire and crack against the symbol of power will send fire to our physically imprisoned comrades, no matter how big the explosion is or even if it can trigger people to do similar actions, but for us it is the only way to turn words into actions is not co-opted by the system!
Power to Alfredo Cospito who is recovering after ending his hunger strike after 6 months! We miss the times you contributed well as an anarchist in prison!
Solidarity to Anna Beniamino from the Narodnaya Volya cell, you always seem to be coherent with your thoughts and we see you as the revolutionaries you were in the past. Yes, like Vera Figner!
Solidarity to Monica Caballero and Fransisco Solar who are awaiting their trial! We send love and firmness from the flames of anarchy to you both!
Solidarity to Toby Shone who is being controlled by the authorities and has gone on his hunger strike last December to participate in solidarity with Cospito and Anna! We read your message and it means a lot to us!
Solidarity to Marius Mason from Earth Liberation Front, you are someone we will always be proud of!
A warm hug for Archer Sintagama aka Giannis Michaildis from Greece who has won the action of his hunger strike!
Solidarity to all anarchist prisoners around the world!
Nothing is forgotten!
Always praxis!
Death to the state!
Long live FAI-IRF!
Long live Anarchy!
