                            Spontaneous Combustion

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Yes, here is my latest series of Anarchy files, helping you, the basement
Anarchist to have a keener and better awareness of the things around you, and
to have the knowledge to make almost anything into a lethal weopon.  Just
remember, if Anarchy ever prevails, kill Donahue.  For some of the BEST file

                         FILE ONE: INTRODUCTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INTRODUCTION:

 These files covers all aspects of incendiary systems.  They describe useful
initiators, ignitors, incendiary materials, delay mechanisms, and spontaneous
combustion devices designed for direct use in sabotage and unconventional
warfare.
 Incendiaries are promarily used in sabotage to set fire to wooden structures
and other combustable targets.  Certain incendiaries, such as thermite, can be
used for melting, cutting, or welding metals.
 The most basic incendiary system consists of putting a lighted match to an
easily combustible material.  However, a simple match is not always effective.
There are many important combusible targets that require far more heat for
reliable ignition then is available from a match.  There are also instances
where delayed ignition is essential for sabotage success.  This series
contains formulations and devices to satisfy the requirements for high
ignition heat and predetermined ignition delay times for use in sabotage and
other harassment actions.
 Every Incendiary system cosists of a group of elements starting with an
initiator and ending with the main incendiary material.  If the initiator does
not produce enough heat for reliable ignition of the combustible target, an
intermediater or booster incendiary is required.  More than one booster is
necessary for some targets.  The initiator (File 2) can consist of a simple
match, a match and a fuse cord, an acid, or water.  The intermediate heat
sources are generally called igniters (File 3).  Ignitors produce sufficient
heat to set the principal incendiary charge (File 4) aflame.  Delay mechanisms
(File 5) are frequently used to prevent detection of the saboteur by post-
ponement of the fire for some limited, preditermined time after placement and
actuation of the device.
 Spontaneous combustion is a good sabotage tool.  Favorable conditions can be
established for the deliberate employment of spontaneous combustion (File 6),
that is, setting combustable material aflame without application of direct
flame or spark.
 All of the devices and techniques described herein have been thoroughly
checked by independant test to make certain that they will work as intended.
Detailed instructions are given for the necessary ingrediants and their
preporation.  It is important that these instructions be followed carefully
to be sure that the devices will operate properly.  In addition, close
attention to the instructions will assure safety.

DEFINITIONS:

 Common terms used in connection with incendiary systems are defined below.
Note that the definitions are worded so as to cover only incendiaries.  Some
of the terms have additional meanings in the related field of explosives.

DELAY MECHANISM..........Chemical, electrical, or mechanical elements that
                        provide a time delay.  Elements may be used singly
                        or in combinations.  They provide a predetermined,
                        limited time interval before an incendiary starts
                        to burn.
FUSE.....................A Flexible fabric tube containing powder that is
                        used to start fires at some remote location.  The
                        powder in the fuse burns and provides a time delay.
IGNITOR..................An intermediate charge between an initiator and an
                        incendiary material.  It is set aflame by the init-
                        iator and produces sufficent heat at high temps to
                        ignite the main incendiary.  Ignitors are fast
                        burning and relatively short lived.
INCENDIARY MATERIAL......A material that burns with a hot flame for long
                        periods.  Its purpose is to set fire to wooden
                        structures and other combustable targets.
INCENDIARY SYSTEM........A group of elements that are assembled to start
                        fires.  The system consists of initiator, delay
                        mechanism (if needed), igniter, and incendiary
                        material
INITIATOR................The source that provides the first fire in an
                        incendiary system.  A match is an initiator.  The
                        initiator is so sensitive that it can be set off
                        with little energy.
SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION...The outbreak of fire in combustible material that
                        occurs without an application of direct flame or
                        spark.  The fire is the result of heat produced by
                        the chemical action of certain oils.
THERMITE.................An incendiary mixture of iron oxide flakes and
                        aluminum powder that reacts chemically when initiated
                        to form molten iron.  Thermite can be used to burn
                        holes in steel or to weld steel parts together.


TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES:

 The equiptment needed for the manufacture of incendiaries consists of simple
items.  They are all readily available.  Required are bottles, jars, pots, and
spoons.  There should be no difficulty in obtaining any of them.  All of the
necessary equiptment is described in each paragraph dealing with a paticular
incendiary compound.
 It is important that the operator follow the directs given in these files
EXACTLY as written.  They have been worked out carefully to give the desired
results with the minimum chance of mishap.  Don't experiment with different
procedures or quantities.
 By it's very nature, the manufacture of incendiaries is dangerous.  It is
the function of incendiaries to burn with an intense flame under the right
conditions.  Care must be taken that no fires result during the making or
placing of the devices.  There are also other dangers in addition to the fire
hazard.  The chemicals used as ingrediants may burn the skin, give off
poisonous fumes, or be easily flamable.  They must not be eaten!!
 When handled with care and proper precautions, incendiaries are fairly safe
to make and use.  Detailed precautions and instructions are given in each
paragraph where they apply.  General safety precautions follow:

 o Fire prevention is much more important than fire fighting.  Prevent fires
   from starting
 o Keep flamable fires away from open flames.
 o Good housekeeping in the fire prevention.  Keep work areas neat and
   orderly.  Clean away all equiptment and materials not needed at the
   moment.  Clean up spills as soon as possible.
 o Store incendiaries in closed containers away from heat.  Do not store
   materials any longer than necessary.
 o In the event of fire, remove the incendiaries from the danger area if this
   can be done quickly and safely.  Use large quantities of water to fight
   incendiary fires.
 o Don't mess around when making these devices.

Safety precautions in the work area follow:

 o Wear rubber gloves, apron, and glasses when handling concentrated chemicals
   if at all possible.
 o Avoid inhaling fumes.  Preform reactions in a well ventilated area or out-
   doors because the boiling is often violent and large amounts of fumes are
   given off that are poisonous if breathed too much.
 o Avoid acid contact with the skin.  If chemicals are spilled on a person,
   wash immediately in running water for several minutes.  If they splash in
   the eyes, wah the open eye in running water for at least 15 minutes.
 o Clean up any acid that is spilled on the floor or bench by flushing with
   large amounts of water.  Acid spilled on wood can cause a fire.
 o Always pour concentrated acids into water.  Never pour water into
   concentrated acids because a violent reaction will occur.
