Greece, Athens – Responsibility claim for domiciliary incendiary attacks

We live in the era of hyper-information and perpetual production and
flow of news. The dominant power is defined by the control over the
info-flow and the big-data. The control of human force is now possible
via the constant analysis of the data daily collected by everyone’s
digital tracks, and intends to a voluntary enslavement under the
dominant order. These imposition terms are totally different and more
whitewashed in comparison with the previous years. The strategy of
counter-insurgency and preventive repression against the damned ones has been framed by dystopic new technologies, specialized knowledge and even more fluid and complex methods of investigation and evidence collection.
The constant mapping of our anarchist environments from the police
forces -i.e. the prosecutions and the arrests for postering and
interventions, or the GPS trackers and the micro-cameras planted to
comrades’ homes and vehicles- intends to the perpetual enrichment of
their data-base, utilised by the State’s machinery.
Once more we see a systematic imposition of far-right and racist
narratives by the media. This way, they justify the image of militarized
public spaces and the droves of cops dispercing through every street and square. The national body is spreading its roots in the arid soils of
its downfallen inheritage, supporting again the rising of neo-nazis and
fascists who were hiding under the umbrella of patriotism and
“frustration”. We also notice an increasing intensity on their actions,
along with operational development of the means they use, and apparently the equivalent State’s support and analgaesia. The armed citizens’ guardings in Evros, under the tolerance and the covering of the police forces, are a gloomy depiction of the future. All those who had signed an informal or formal truce with the previous government due to their supposed social-democratic mediocrity, lost the “deal” after July. All those who supported the politics of SYRIZA due to ideological affinity, are now dully shouting, trying to persuade us that it was the lesser evil.
Greek State, in the present historical conjuncture, is coping with the
interior enemy applying the intensive strategy, imposing states of
exemption and “law and order” doctrines, erecting monuments of victory against our imprisoned and prosecuted comrades, striving for the establishment of capitalist normality and the interception of every
insurrectional move. It’s our responsibility to develop a militant
infrastructure and to carefully plan our next steps to the formation of
a prepared anarchist movement, able to stand as a barricade against the totalitarian capitalist attack. At the last months, the actions of
individual and collective insurgency become more frequent, painting the nocturnal metropolitan canvas with fiery shines of arsons, deafening melodies of explosions and beams of successful conspiracies.

Domiciliary incendiary attacks as one of the fine arts
The complex of the dominant capitalist relationship is not only composed by faceless nets of capitalist violence and relentless reproduction of the social relationships being imposed by them. It’s not only composed by our mental mutilation, by our fragmentation, by the repeated behaving of the capitalist ritual inside the metropolitan factory which destroys our memory, our creative imagination, our identity. It’s not only composed by the capital’s expansion on every second of our daily life, even further than the working condition; a proccess of denervation that destroys every non-capitalist cell of our individuality. The capitalist formation is also composed by human beings who become an integral part of it by serving a social, economical, political role. They are one among the many expressions of capitalist brutality; they are its body and it voice, its eyes and its ears, its guns which target us, and its stormy propaganda.
The strategy of personalised targeting serves plenty of political and
tactical purposes. It transfers the fear and the terror -grown and
pracitced against the oppressed ones- to the dominants’ homes, to the
places in which they feel safe and invulnerable. It proves that we are
able to afflict them, when being organized and having the will; that,
when we choose the time and the place, when we choose the guerrilla
methodology as a tool of struggle and conflict, we can be the front of
counter-attack against the state’s and capitalism’s strategy of
counter-insurgency. It’s in our hands to remind the zealous guardians of the capitalist world that they can face determined resistance if we
realise the social war’s full dimentions. If we reify the material
consequences that will be paid by all those who serve the modern gloom.
If we take the decision to become really dangerous and to organize
ourselves. Let’s bring the warfare to their garden, outside their
outdoors. Because, even if the people serving important positions on the authoritarian pyramid are expendable, it’s still of a high political
importance to give them back the fear and the psychosomatic pain which they ‘ve exercised over the oppressed bodies. Let’s become the constant threat dangling over their heads; the threat that makes them need 24/7 armed security down of their homes or during their transportations, cameras on every corner, and finally a whole machinery of research, prevention, data collection, repression and justification of their disgrace. Let this threat hunt them. The active supporters of the dystopic neo-liberal normality are targeted. Therefore, it would be appropriate for them to count their choices and their words, claiming the importance we intend to impute to them counting their addresses.
Unfolding our roots and origins on the public sphere
That’s where we come from: From the appartments of the miserable cement and the metropolitan isolation. From the failed crises of conscience attempted by the media via brain-washing and reality inversion; from the mass culture of consumerism and advertising which construct pseudo-necessities, so as to fulfill the bosses’ pockets; from the body punishment of the beatings at the police stations and the protests, when we decide to stand against power; from the “non-violent” ideology, which is nothing more than a humiliating bow and a call for the dominant subjects to continue their murderous work; from the deppression, which is massively spreaded by capitalism via asphyxiating pressure, virtual stupor, ruination of every healthy social relationship – intending to give us the “solution” and heal us via psychopharmaceutical drugs, leaving us limp, unconcious, wandering victims of the post-modern decay.
Facing the violent present of our times, we regret remaining indifferent servants and pathetic observers. We want to counter-attack; against the functions of management and reproduction of the capitalist reality, against the “bellum omnium contra omnes”, against the individualization and the constant antagonism. We want to make barricades of resistence against a state which rises nationalism and racism; which divides the people into locals and foreign ones; which decides for their life or their death at the ground or sea borders, under the sound of war drum beat and the screamings of the expanding social fascistization.
Anarchy -as the embodiment of the constant war for freedom- is a
permanent reminder to those serving the authoritarian institutions that it can be perceived as a revenge on a small scale for everyone who feels that capitalism is social death in disguise, an open wound from whichthe blood of the world’s damned ones spills all over. A revenge on a small scale for all of us that feel we ‘ve lost thousands of beautiful
days enclosed in the labour camps, producing profit for the bosses; that
we ‘ve lost thousands of beautiful days incarcerated in the
concentration camps, in their open or closed detention centres and
prisons; that we daily destroy our bodies so as to cope with the
ridiculous employer’s demands; that we become expendable so as not to disrupt the capitalist profit-seeking. That’s why these actions are also a signal of solidarity to those who will find a part of themselves
reading this text; a promise that the struggle goes on; an open
challenge, because we need comrades with whom to create militant bonds and collective prospects. Let’s fulfill the vision of freedom and
resistance, so as to become the worst nightmare of those who want us
with our head bowed.
Our relationships and our beliefs are planted like a seed deeply inside
the soil. They flourish like cracks of vegetation out of the mousy and
cold cement. They flourish everywhere and always. This time, they
flourished from the flames and the whomps of the incendiary/explosive devices that we placed at the outdoors and the property of some wingmen of the capitalist abjection that we experience and fight inside our territory.
We claim the responsibility for the incendiary attacks on the houses of:
– Manolis Asariotis, a police reporter of ANT1 (greek corporate media).
His role as a person that totally supports the state and expresses the
government’s propaganda on his public speeches, in fact being their
physical extension; his total co-ordination with the (un)known circles
of the counter-terrorist unit which publicize fake news so as to target
comrades; his opportunism and his hatred against anarchists that lead
him to build a “reality show” around the personal lives of anarchist
combatants, to reproduce the police narratives, to construct guiltiness
for many people, to prepare the ground for their repression; his role to
cover up all the crimes of Greek Police against combatants, migrants,
excluded ones; these are some of the reasons why we visited him. Next
time he reproduces fake news and targets people, let him be aware that
his house is known in our circles.
– Thanos Tzimeros, a fascist politician. His role as a graphic, though
potentially dangerous politician; his public statements that profane our fallen ones, such as Alexis Grigoropoulos and Pavlos Fissas, his racist and xenophobic gutter against migrants, the shameful reproduction of the theory of the two extremes (horseshoe theory), and the equation of nazism with communism; these are some of the dozens of reasons why we visited him. To solve the question of our poor Thanos: maybe he hasn’t served any political position – even if he has elected 3 members on the county council of Attica. Though, he is still a visible voice of the far-right wing, of the neo-liberal pole, of the conservative narratives.
His stupidity surprised us once more, as we learned that he makes a
fundraising to collect money and fix his house’s burnt-down entrance.
Let him be sure that now, as we know his house, maybe we will
unsuspectedly give him our fund
– Ioanna Mandrou, a journalist of SKAI (greek corporate media), and her judicial husband. Nothing was mentioned in the corporate media about the incendiary attack on the authoritarian couple’s house. Her role as a priest of the judicial reportage, based on the “objectivity” and the “valid information” coming straight out of her husband, who serves an important position on the judicial hierarchy; her constant slandering against political prisoners (i.e. the case of the negative decision about the furloughs of Dimitris Koufontinas) and prosecuted combatants; her offensive comments against Magda Fissa (that during the court she was provocative against the murderer of her son, Pavlos Fissas); her responsibility for the perpetual covering of every political and economical scandal (see Novartis), as she always creates atmosphere for the social justification of the pre-decided acquittals; the fact that she is politically organized on New Democracy party, and she can be noticed at every encounter, outing or meeting of ND politicians (see the video of her dancing at en event of the Minister of Maritime Affairs, Giannis Plakiotakis, along with all the far-right gutter); the fact that she is a fanatic supporter of fascism, of the memoranda, of the social inequality, of state repression; all these were enough for us to target her. Let both her and her husband keep in their minds that we still have unfinished business with them. The choice of Mandrou to pressure our comrades through slandering, lies and obsessions, opening the doors for the judicial scum -like her husband and his “high class” fellows, who hung our comrades on the loop of incarceration- will not remain unanswered.
– Manolis Themelis, a veteran cop who is now a local politician next to
the mayor (ex PASOK member) of Nea Filadelfia region, Giannis Vouros. This was an attack also not mentioned at the media. He is a fascist militant, with an active role on reproducing the governmental strategy on his neighbourhood. He has worked as a cop at the Police Station of Omonoia -known for its cops’ plenty of brutalities and murders- (among others), having a prominent position on torturing, attacking, bullying and humiliating migrants over the past years. He has served the Greek Police in several ways, always reproducing the dominant cannibalistic and exploitative morality. He is one among the many “anonymous” cops, well-buried inside the slime of the supposed anonymity ensured by their position as expendable executive organs. We exhumed him as an example for every equivalent piece of human garbage, so as to remind them that they ‘ve made very specific and unforgettable life-choices. Maybe an incendiary gift to their cars or to their houses’ entrance can help them remember that they are on the first line of the war against the revolutionaries and the damned ones, and that this position will possibly have a personal price for them.
Our total solidarity to our comrades K. Athanasopoulou, D. Valavani and G. Michailidis, who are now imprisoned, after a counter-terrorist
operation.
Strength for the four comrades who are prosecuted for their
participation to the supposed organization “Comrades”, after a stupidly orchestrated operation itending to terrorize the anarchist movement in total.
Signals of solidarity and strength to our comrade Gabriel Pombo da
Silva, to the two comrades arrested for the arson of an ATM in Madrid, to the Park Bench three in Germany, and to all the anarchist,
anti-authoritarian and antifascist prisoners in Russia and Italy.
Our thoughts for the imprisoned people who revolt against the state of
isolation inside the Italian prisons, after the generalized emergency
situation.
Inside our hearts, the flames of the Chilean insurrection are still
burning, and we don’t forget neither the fallen ones, nor the imprisoned ones, nor the people who experienced the brutality of the uniformed scum.
And because memory is a weapon on our hands, Lambros Fountas always accompanies our hearts and our struggles. At the 10th of March nobodydies, at the 10th of March gives birth to guerrillas.
Anarchist Groups of Nocturnal Visits
PS: We consider as non-equivalent for this situation to just make a
fragmentary mention on the issue of COVID-19. We would just like to
simeologically focus on the enforced exercises of social distancing,
alienation, self retirement, loneliness, insecurity and fear for the
people next to us. Exercises of consolidation of the emergency state, of
the metropolitan militarization, of the capitalist restructuring in
terms of militarized and battle management on the social field, of the
fluid and elastic readjustment of the working relationships via the
house-work and the temporary engagements, of the destruction of every collective feeling inside the working spaces or the fields of social
reproduction. Exercises of closed mouths end eyes in front of the modern upgraded panoptic control, the thermal cameras or the cameras of immediate biometric analysis, the silent drones, the justification of the mobile tracking. Exercises of insensitivity and apathy in front of the total unfolding of the modern death-politics and the social exclusion of migrants, prisoners, homeless ones, people that practically couldn’t follow the infamous “We stay at home”, because they don’t have a home, or maybe because their “home” is a place where they are invisibly accumulated, with no medical care, as they are not considered as “normal people”, as “citizens”, but as superfluous bodies.
The management of this “health crisis” in terms of war, is just one more point of the social-class war. It’s a straight attack against the exiled from the kingdom of priviledges, as there’s no golden cell for them to be stoically enclosed, but precarious and underpaid long hours, savage working hours without the necessary means of hygiene, firings and unemployment, hunting for handouts, high anxiety and insecurity for what’s next. The class truce which we are about to sign, coping with the “invisible enemy threatening the society”, makes even more visible for us where to direct our fire. What we deeply need to communicate with our comrades now, is that -beyond the basic issues of solidarity, mutual aid and self-protection- this conjuncture should find us prepared. Let’s communicate – Let’s talk – Let’s organize – Let’s get ready. So that we can be able to stand on our ground and cope with the coming capitalist crisis and the war against us.
