Victoria police are increasingly employing heavy-handed tactics against pro-Palestinian protesters, routinely deploying pepper spray and calling in the riot squad.

Anonymous submission from a group of antifascist networks in so-called 'melbourne':

"In the wake of the heinous & racist riots in the UK & the NSN feeling emboldened to attempt to normalise their presence in the streets of our cities, a solidarity action was held to say

FCK NSN, FCK EDL, N@ZI SCUM GO TO HELL!

Systems of oppression always work to uphold one another and we cannot rely on the state to keep our communities safe. Community safety is maintained when we take to the streets and fight back.

Don't rely on any entity that claims authority or experience over you, liberation is a community effort, take autonomous action. Join your local antif@scist network, train, organise and bash fash."

Authorities are treating a movement which seeks to disrupt a global weapons manufacturing trade show as more of a threat than the supply of the killing machines themselves.

Breaking! Autonomous activists have shut down the roads entering Webb Dock, stopping workers and trucks from entering the shipping terminals for Toll Group and Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT).

This action targets Toll Group, a logistics company actively facilitating the global transfer of arms, including for display at Disrupt Land Forces, and VICT, a terminal that contracts with "israeli" national shipping carrier ZIM and its partners.

This is a purposeful economic disruption to further anti-zionist and anti-imperialist causes. It aims to economically disrupt the flow of capital to the zionist economy and the global logistics of arms supply.

Activists reaffirm their commitment to material solidarity with all Indigenous peoples who face and resist the forces of imperialism, colonisation and capitalism, from the occupation on this continent to the occupation in Palestine.

Back in July, an NYC group called the Transit Liberation Front smashed 10 subway fare machines, causing $40k damages to the police/surveillance state. Just a few days ago, NYPD committed a mass shooting on the MTA, provoking mass anger, fare resistance, and anti-police mobilizations in response. Look back at the Transit Liberation Front communiqué here...

"We may not yet face the same violence in the metropole as we see at the margins, but, as the resistance grows and the intifada is globalized, they are certainly getting ready in case we get too rowdy, too ungovernable. We are the frogs in the slowly heating pot.

Disabling these machines is just one small act of resistance, one that requires no more than a good, heavy hammer (16 oz. or more, no wooden handles), some safety equipment (goggles and protective gloves), and a solid plan for concealing your identity.

Bring a friend to watch your back and go to town. Smash an OMNY, cover a camera, break one of their stupid video ads. Join the Transit Liberation Front today!"
