The one of them holds the editions of Adonis Georgiadis, a parliament member of LAOS, a right-wing party, on Solonos 114 street, targeted also more than 10 times in the past. The other is "Pelasgos" a nationalist hang-out and bookshop on Harilaou Trikoupi street. Once evacuated from employees and clients, the bookshops had their glasswindows broken down and then were burnt with molotov cocktails, causing total damages to the shops and the merchandise.

Previous example of "direct action" of this sort

Yet more evidence of the "moronic convergence" between extreme left and extreme right.

The fact that you even compare this to actions taken in Germany during the 3rd Reich demonstrates your moronic views on society, and your utter lack of understanding for any actions taken which exist outside the spectrum of the elites law books. Targeted attacks in Germany in 1936 were against a race of people. They demonstrated the state's willingness and pleasure at uniting the German working class against all those who were not German. Much in the same way that these right wing thugs deploy violence and propaganda through any means available. By day they are running their legal bookshop and promoting Fascist ideals, and by night they round up immigrants at any possible location, and beat the shit out of them. This happens in every country, yours, mine, everywhere the rights of the working classes and especially those of foreign decent are been crushed by the state and their thugs. All you quick to condemn the war waged against these fascists are obviously oblivious to this as you are too busy wanking to the sounds of the reformist 'liberal' parties who obviously co-operate (directly and indirectly) with the murderers of the working class here and abroad. You dickheads will never understand actions such as these as you will never realise the social war that exists in our society. Anyways these actions are not taken to protect your livelihoods. They are taken to protect people we actually value and respect.

FUCK YOU AND YOUR REFORMIST DREAMS. CLASS WAR

What are you thinking? Removing comments that counter the above 2 ignorant comments. Or did i use the word fuck a bit too much for your liking? The posts you've chosen to leave on are a lot more insulting than what i wrote in response. FASCISTS

No apology, no quarter for nationalism

Our history is struggle against oppression, yours 'Reality Check' is the path of submission and liberal apology for nazism. You promote 'convergence' with your own words, to smear those who resist and confuse the people with your lies.

Direct action against the political right - no quarter for our enemies - we remember our history and our fight.

Genocidal Anarchists????

Anarchists who intend to destroy Nations make Anarchy impossible.
Anarchists who want to empower Fascists attack Nationalists and drive them over.
In Greece it is most likely the Turks who attack the Nationalists.
Are Greek Anarchists volunteering for Turkish domination?

Anarcho ????
