On the multiple attack of 7th of July (Athens, 7/7/2008)

The following translation comes from parts of the claim published in "Eleftherotipia" newspaper (http://www.enet.gr/online/online_hprint?q=%E1%ED%E5%EB%E1%E2%E1%ED&a=&id=96856480). It is a usual policy of this, and probably every mass media, to censor or at least publish whichever part they wish, when it comes to claims. Here we go:

"They took claim"

The "Anarchist Action" claimed responsibility, through a text to "E", for the incendiary attacks against a luxurious car dealership, on July 4, and 2 bank subsidiaries and at a sound and vision systems company, on July 7.

"We stand in solidarity to them, rekindling the fronts of attack. On July 11, 2008, Chr. Kontorevithakis and M. Tsourapas face a jury. Their stance and the responsibility they took for their actions (arson attempt against vehicles of the Municipal Police) is not apology in front of any jury, but a constant challenge against the generalized apathy and guilt of yours. The struggle continues", they mention.

"We hit whatever stands as a symbol for the modern world, whatever supports it, whatever reproduces it, and whoever allies with it, finding there a refuge for his affirmation and security. We pursue the destruction of every bank shrine of money, because our time is not money. Time gains its value when we attack institutions, negate the existant, neglect the silence, create focuses of rupture against the dominant patterns and values", they add in their text.

The attack at an office of the ministry of Culture, during the night of July 7th is claimed with a phonecall to "E" the "Anarchists against pricey gasoline", in a "sign of solidarity to the comrades facing jury Tsourapas and Kontorevithakis". "The comrade fighters are kept in prison, while the bon vivant minister of Culture is touring Europe with money from state's sponsors. The civilization of corruption cannot be cleaned, just set afire." They said.

We hit whatever stands as a symbol for the modern world, whatever supports it, whatever reproduces it, and whoever allies with it, finding there a refuge for his affirmation and security. We pursue the destruction of every bank shrine of money, because our time is not money.
Time gains its value when we attack institutions, negate the existant, neglect the silence, create focuses of rupture against the dominant patterns and values.
We attack luxurious car agencies because they represent the social value of power, that every petit-bourgeois whants to adopt and thinks every bourgeois has.
We sabot every institution of surveillance and control, we pull apart the covetable security each "decent citizen" strives for, inside his private cell.
That's why on 4/7/08 we attacked against a well-known luxurious car agency celebrating in our own way its 30th anniversary, "donating" many litres of gasoline and conscioussness destroying 22 vehicles and causing damages to the building.
On 7/7/08 against Alpha Bank at Ilion and Emporiki Bank at Alimos, making our own deposit of fire at the banking system. Finally, against a company that provides and constructs security-surveillance systems at Alimos, proving them unable to guard their own existance.
In this world of infinite choises, we shosed the way of negation and offensive action. Comrades chose every day to stand up the same decisions. Some of them get to pay for their choices, with their imprisonment or their going undergound. We stand in solidarity to all of them rekindling the fronts of attack.
On 11/7/08 Chr. Kontorevithakis and M. Tsourapas face a jury. Their stance and the claim of responsibility for their actions (arson attempt against vehicles of the municipal police) is not an apology in front of any jury, but a constant challenge against the generalized apathy and guilt of yours. The struggle continues...
