Maersk Warehousing and Distribution Service Center Beautified
In the early hours of July 8, Maersk’s warehousing and distribution service center in romulus, mi was targeted by an autonomous group.The Maersk entrance was beautified with statements like “Fuck Maersk” and “Cut ties with genocide.”This action was done in line with the Palestinian Youth Movement’s Mask Off Maersk campaign, as Maersk plays a direct role in committing and continuing the genocide of the people of Palestine. In the last nine months, Maersk has transported hundreds of millions of dollars worth of weapons components to the top 5 weapons manufacturers in the US for assembly. Without Maersk those weapons would not reach israel.We demand that Maersk stops shipping weapons to the zionist entity, and that they cut ties with genocide. Until then, we will continue to escalate against all empires and those that fund and empower them. We encourage all those who read this to take action against the genocidal supply chain and against colonialism, in whatever form it may appear.

Date Changed! -> “Fuck the 4th, Siege the Ports”
UPDATE:
6/25/2024
The Seattle “Fuck the 4th, Siege the Ports” action has been canceled.
We do not think a critical mass can be reached for this action,
so the decision has been made to call it off.
The action had been moved to July 4th, but we still believe this is not attainable.
If people would still like to show up in SoDo they should not expect others to be there.
We apologize for the late notice,
but we believe calling off the action at this point in time is the right decision.
For other cities and comrades that may be planning actions this upcoming week,
we hope for others to show out in force and nothing but the best.
For a free Palestine,
fuck the US forever,
and the Zionist death machine that it keeps alive.

Fight Like a Flea: Lessons from the Casbah of Basel al-Araj
“The flea has fascinating fighting strategies and techniques…It does not kill its host…what it does is exhaust its host and consume its blood, causing constant disturbance, eventually preventing the host from being able to rest. It makes the host nervous and demoralized. […]
[T]he guerilla fights its wars like fleas…If the battle lasts long enough to exhaust the host then it will fail in the battle due to its weakness while unable to locate the flea(s)…[F]ight like a flea.” Live Like A Porcupine, Fight Like A Flea

CONTEXT
Since October 7th, Chicago has seen countless marches and actions that have been successful in bringing out hundreds and thousands of people. However, many of these numbers consist of suburbanites driving or being bussed into the city to show support, rather than a mass of Chicagoans coming together from across the deeply race- and class-segregated city. In addition, these marches have usually been put on by a small number of nonprofit organizations. They have been heavily marshaled and largely symbolic, leaving many people demoralized and looking for more.
As every day sees more Gazans murdered by the zionist entity, symbolic parades that play into respectability politics at every turn and ask the state for permission to protest are clearly a toothless and insufficient response. Small, isolated acts of sabotage aren’t enough either—it is crucial to seek more militant forms of collective action. These actions should demonstrate an understanding of the throughline between the colonial states of the US and Israel, and the need to abolish both entirely—prisons, police, military, and state bureaucracies alike—to stop both the genocide in Gaza and the daily forms of state violence here in Chicago. From within the imperial core, there’s an obligation to interrupt the material support that the “U.S.” provides “israel.”
In order to encourage more militant collective action, there is a need for a change in protest culture that is rife with peace policing liberal concerns about “outside agitators.” Contrary to what peace police, protest managers, and the heads of liberal social justice organizations would have us believe, many people are looking to take more escalated action and learn the skills to do so together. This desire clearly expressed itself in flashes at the campus encampments here in Chicago, including in the brief but impactful establishment of the Casbah of Basel Al Araj on the University of Chicago campus.

New Zine: Red Flags: Before You Join That Org…
Screen reading [here]
Imposed for printing [here]
Ever since October 7th, authoritarian communist groups and vanguard parties have had a fresh crisis to use for their predatory recruiting and fundraising. More experienced people know to avoid them, but this doesn’t matter much. They depend on recruiting newly radicalized people, energetic and inexperienced, and without existing connections to other radicals that could warn them off.
This zine is an intervention. Written for people newer to radical politics, it outlines red flags to look out for, provides some history of the most well-known authoritarian communist groups’ harmful behavior, and offers a few alternatives to joining them. Give this to the new people you’re seeing join movements, it could help them avoid lots of grief and serious harm.

Northwestern University 2.0???
Uchi’s encampment has been very disappointing. For starters, the community agreements are not community agreements. They are rules. One silly thing that they have decided for the quad is that no one can smoke or vape when it’s the norm. They have also decided to declare that people will not engage with any form of authority while they behave as such. Organizers and marshals have formed an internal divide within the encampment. On day one of the encampment, members decided to take down the israeli multi-flag display, and marshals chased them down and took pictures of them. It says on the community “agreements” that people are not supposed to take pictures of others without consent. Does that only apply to people who do what they say? Zionists eventually put them back up with UCPD guards. If marshals are supposed to “keep the camp safe,” wouldn’t it have been a great time to block them from taking the flags down?

Michigan Says Fuck No to Genocide Joe
Michigan says fuck no to Genocide Joe- multiple activities across Detroit today show people’s disgust with Joe’s invitation to Michigan to be presented with an award at the NAACP’s « Fight for Freedom Fund Dinner ». The NAACP does not represent the intertwined struggles of Black and Palestinian liberation. Thousands more Palestinians have been killed since Biden’s last visit in March. People of good conscience can’t allow him to conduct business as usual when his business is genocide. Fuck U Genocide Joe. Continue reading “Michigan Says Fuck No to Genocide Joe”
