Statement on the arson against a vehicle of the Greek Embassy

From Kontrapolis.

We have been closely following the Greek state's crushing of demonstrations in the streets of Athens. The government of Nea Dimokratia and its judiciary have proven that in the hunger strikes of D. Koufontinas and G. Michailidis they are ready to let prisoners die rather than to give way one step. We know the videos of the lynching with the participation of police officers of Zak Kostopoulos. As well as the execution of N. Sampanis in Perama by DIAS is an expression of a ruthless regime, as is the murder of Vassilis Maggos in Volos. Blood drips from the hands of the Greek authorities.

Political text by Anarchist Georgia Voulgari

Write to an anarchist prisoner today!

from Athens Indymedia via Act for Freedom Now!

Political text by Georgia Voulgari, a prisoner in the women’s prison of Korydallos.

I proudly declare myself anarchist, proud that in this rotten society, the society of submission and spectacle, I did not bow my head before exploitation and power and chose to stand next to comrades who, by supporting the multiform struggle, also wrote their own page in the revolutionary historical memory. So far, living my new life next to them, in squats, through their common struggles for freedom, I learned what solidarity and comradeship is, what it means to give everything for what you believe in even if you are going to lose your freedom. I take the political responsibility that is due to me for my complicity in the incendiary attack that took place on 8/2 at the Foundation for National and Religious Reflection. A fragmentary action, which was not carried out by an organisation, namely the Anarchist Action organisation of which I am accused as a member, but was motivated by the desires and anger of two people against religious obscurantism, patriarchy and state power.

Write an anarchist prisoner today!

from Athens Indymedia via Dark Nights

On Thursday, April 14th, the event of the Anarchist Initiative against State Killings, concerning the case of the anarchist comrade Claudio Lavazza, took place at the ASOEE with a relatively massive presence of comrades. The presentation was read as well as the transcript of an interview Claudio has given about his case and a video was shown concerning the expropriation of a bank in Cordoba and the subsequent confrontation with the police forces where he was arrested. Finally, comments and statements were made by comrades about the connection between Claudio’s experience of struggle, especially the years he participated in the Italian movement, and the present day, and it was decided to call an open assembly to organize a meeting at the French embassy on May 17, the day when the comrade’s appeal against the decision of the bourgeois justice system that forces him to serve another 5 years in prison until he is released will be heard.

Responsibility claim for Arson Attack Against a UNISON Vehicle in Exarcheia

fiyah!

*Translation note from Cretin: Responsibility claim for the arson of a company vehicle of UNISON Facilities Management, on Vatatzis Street in Exarcheia, in the early hours of Wednesday, February 23, 2022. Originally posted in Greek-language on the Athens Indymedia website here: https://athens.indymedia.org/post/1617190/

Athens, Greece: Redevelopment, gentrification, gentrification. Concepts that have become embedded as spikes in the discourse and action of the antagonist movement, must be seen as another aspect of the attack of the ruling classes against the oppressed class. Capital aims at subordinating the whole of life to its exploitation and reproduction, and therefore organizes more and more aspects of human activity in this logic.

Responsibility claim for incendiary attacks against nationalists

nationalists of all stripes make for nice targets

from Athens Indymedia, English translation by Dark Nights

So in this context we as an integral part of this movement and as flesh of the flesh of the oppressed and exploited take responsibility for the:

The placing of an incendiary device in the car of Panagiotis Bekas, a fascist, former soldier and for years a member of the Holy Company at 3 Kolokotronis Street in Sikies, Thessaloniki on 10/01/22. We dedicate this action to the evacuated squat Steki in Biologico.

Placement of an explosive device at the house of Maki Kougioumtzidis, a fascist and for years a member of the Holy Company, at 6 Elena Theodoridou Street in the Ippokratio area of Thessaloniki on 27/01/22. This action was our own tribute to the anniversary of Imia.

International Campaign for Revolutionary Anarchism

from Athens Indymedia

Full title: International Campaign for Revolutionary Anarchism and Solidarity with Revolutionary Prisoners

With the capitalist destruction of earth and life continuing unhindered and the nearing prospects of an ecological collapse, there is, perhaps more than ever, a serious and immediate need for global revolutionary movements. Where do our movements here in Europe stand faced with the immense challenges and demands of our epoch? Can we retrace our revolutionary roots? Can we become the creative force that can effectively abolish the cannibalistic authority of the rich few over the many?
