To mark one year of genocide against the Palestinian people, an autonomous group visited the homes of two University of Michigan leaders, President Santa Ono and Chief Investment Officer Erik Lundberg. They also decorated the offices of the Jewish Federation of Detroit and the Michigan Israel Business Accelerator, organizations that are deeply entrenched in the apartheid state. From businesses to universities, we reject all financial support for the Israeli regime.

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.

‘minneapolis’: Wells Fargo branch Attacked for A15 Disruption, in Solidarity with the Palestinian Resistance and StopCopCity
We have not forgotten the glory of October 7, the dawn of Tufan Al-Aqsa.
Half a year on, the Palestinian Resistance and its allies continue to fight a world-historic guerrilla war against not only the zionist settler-invader hordes but also the very order of Western imperialism. Now, in a long overdue but welcome development, a segment of the global ‘solidarity movement’ has finally recognized that only escalatory direct action, to disrupt the capitalist economy as a whole, will seriously impede the euro/amerikan ‘Axis of Genocide.’
In response to the A15 call for economic disruption, Anti-Colonial Action Brigade (ACAB) attacked a Wells Fargo branch in so-called ‘minneapolis’ (occupied Dakota lands) early morning Monday April 15.
We spraypainted “INTIFADA,” “FUCK 12,” “STOP COP CITY,” “DESTROY ZIONISM,” “Al-AQSA FLOOD,” “DEATH TO ‘israel,'” “DEATH TO amerika,” “AVENGE THE MARTYRS,” “FREE PALESTINE,” “FUCK COP CITY,” and smashed out six windows including the glass door.
Wells Fargo funds the genocide & colonization of Palestine through a $500 million loan to Elbit Systems, the zionist entity’s top drone manufacturer. In addition, a Wells Fargo executive sits on the board of the Atlanta Police Foundation, the parasites behind Cop City. We act in total solidarity with the movements resisting the carceral-colonial pig power structure in its various manifestations—whether a cop city in the Weelaunee Forest, or a euro-settler regime in Palestine.
Chicago action in solidarity with Appalachians Against Pipelines
Bank of America branch locked in response to BOA funding: Mountain Valley Pipeline, Cop City linked to Tortuguita’s murder, and the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.
Chicago, Illinois — A Bank of America branch was locked and windows wheatepasted with flyers containing links to the bank’s abhorrent acts of cruelty. People are calling on BOA to drop its funding of the Mountain Valley Pipeline, a 303-mile pipeline described as “a scar across Appalachia.” The MVP will supply fuel to the Radford Army Ammunition Plant. RAAP is operated by BAE systems, which supplies the Israeli government with weapons used to murder Palestinians. BOA also funds Cop City, the 85-acre militarized police training compound that the Atlanta Police Foundation is attempting to build in Atlanta, GA. Construction for Cop City desecrates and bulldozes the Weelaunee Forest, the largest urban forest in the United States, dubbed one of the lungs of Atlanta.

Caltrops Deployed, Windows Etched, and Messaging Left at Rolls Royce Site
Canton, MI
the early hours of January 19 2024
have you heard of MTU? it’s a subsidiary of Rolls Royce, based in Germany (but also operate in turtle island). a quick review of the MTU Solutions website will reveal they manufacture diesel engines for many unfavorable purposes: oil/gas extraction, mining vehicles, yachts, and perhaps most notably– military use.
MTU engines power 80% of the Israeli naval boats, as well as their Merkava tanks and armored personnel carriers. additionally, Rolls Royce components make possible the F-35 warplanes that carry out the genocidal airstrikes on Gaza.
“what better way to remember Tort than to leave caltrops and wall/window messages for a MTU engine technician training center?”, we thought.
and did.
free Palestine
revenge for Tortuguita
make every war profiteer afraid
ps-
there is so much more to do.
some of the aforementioned engines are made in so-called Michigan.

Kalamazoo McDonald’s Vandalized for Palestine
Early one December morning in so-called “Kalamazoo, Michigan”, four humans dressed in black crept under the light of golden arches, posters and spray paint in hand. They set out to disrupt people’s genocide-flavored morning coffee. Rollers oozing wheat paste, they splattered signs which read, “McDonald’s supports genocide”, “Free Gaza River to Sea”, “Hungry for Freedom”, and other messages onto the driveway menus, windows, and the speaker box. They also sprayed the word “BOYCOTT” onto the wall of the building in black paint, and quickly made their exit.
It was a monday morning. People would soon need their coffee to help them facilitate capitalism better, and McDonald’s would profit. The goal was to disrupt that as much as possible. While people in Kalamazoo enjoy a morning crappucino, people in Gaza don’t even have basic access to water – clean or dirty, thanks to corporations such as McDonald’s which directly support the Israeli bombings in Palestine. While people here can enjoy an egg mcmuffin and hashbrowns for breakfast, people in Gaza go hungry — 9 in 10 Gazans cannot eat everyday. If they do find food, it is likely moldly, expired, or otherwise unfit for consumption. While McDonald’s is hungry for profit, the world is hungry for freedom. The hope was to make the ongoing horrors in Palestine all too apparent to those who are complicit by supporting such businesses that aid in their continuation.

New Zine: How To Have A Fun Night To Forget
Chicago, IL: Military Recruiters’ Office Attacked in Memory of Jennifer Laude
Originally published on https://bbnews.noblogs.org/post/2023/10/14/chicago-il-military-recruiters-office-attacked-in-memory-of-jennifer-laude/
We smashed out windows and knocked over furniture at a military recruiters’ office in a suburb of Chicago last night.
In solidarity with Filipino/a/x anarchists’ calls to commemorate Ganda, we swarmed on a miserable little strip mall where black and brown youth are targeted for induction into the imperial machine. Our intention was to slow down this violent routine, even if just for a couple of hours.
We swung our hammers invoking Jennifer Laude’s life, remembering the deeds of Michele Angiolillo and Leon Czolgosz, and channeling our rage against the transmisogyny and white impunity of neo-colonial occupation (A).

Transphobic Hair Salon in Traverse City Vandalized
Anonymous submission to Unsalted Counter Info.
The owner of Studio 8 Hair Lab, Christine Geiger, said that people who specify their pronouns should go to a pet groomer. She also said she didn’t care that she was in violation of MI HB 4744, a Michigan law banning gender discrimination. Well, trans people and their allies can break the law too, Christine, and we thought your store front could use some redecoration. Glass etch and spray paint reading “TC <3s trans folks” and “trans power” did just the trick. Trans people and our allies will not let this stand in our community.
