american embassy in Athens under attack


The night of 12 january a rocket targeting the US embassy in the center of Athens was fired resulting in some damage on the building and brough a lot of frustration to the local authorities and especially the local minister of public order ( that is Mr Polydoras, or better search in google for the word φασιστας , aka fascist in greek and you'll be presented to his page).

Nobody was injured from the attack. The small rocket launched from across the street shattered windows and woke up nearby residents

That is supposed to be the most serious symbolic attack after the dislocation of the country's famous leftist organization "17 November" a few years ago and the mass delirium introducing security (guaranteed by thousands cops, cameras and rambos) to the local people's lives.

Personal comment: It's good that at the climate of generalized numbness there are people that show with their actions the disaprovement to what the US GOVERNMENT does to the world.

Kisses to all
