Greece: Arson Attacks on the Homes of New Democracy Politician and Cop

Claiming responsibility for the arson attacks on the homes of ND MP M. Charakopoulos and cop G. Meidanis

We take responsibility for the double attack with low-power incendiary devices at dawn 14/05/25 at the entrances of the apartment buildings where New Democracy MP Maximos Charakopoulos and the uniformed garbage of the Hellenic Police Yiannis Meidanis reside.

Our moves were not at all random as they are a first sign of aggressive solidarity with the arrested for the events at the DAP-NDFK event in the Law School. Our attack was decided to take place a few weeks later. Nevertheless, we deemed it necessary to speed it up due to the events, redefining the climate of fear with which Chrysochoidis wants to imbue us in good cooperation with the media and return the fear to the eyes of those who need to prosper. Because for every raid you make at the homes of comrades, we will also pay a visit to yours.

A very faint layer of light unites the political with the personal, it resembles the light that the twilight emitts in the early mornings, where you don’t know when the night ends and when the day begins, where the boundaries of one are confused within the boundaries of the other. Our twilight is the moment of explosions, where we gave the night its first colors in the hope that something new would dawn, there we united these two poles (political/personal) through action. But for us, the personal does not stop at the individual, but starts from it, it is not limited to its narrow logics but extends from it. We are not just individuals, we are what we stand for, the past has led us to the present and our present to the future. So we are our decisions, these gentlemen consciously decided to be on the side of the authoritarians and we consciously opposed. But what happens when your social roles suppress our individual and our collective evolution? Then the resistance comes, then the war begins. A thin thread unites us with the struggles of yesterday and we continue so that tomorrow’s struggles exist, that they have somewhere to stand in order to evolve.

So we start, one MP, the other a cop, one represents/exercises the executive power and the other imposes through repression the power of the respective political leadership. Together they compose two of the four pillars of the state apparatus (the other two legislative, propaganda) and the reasons for hitting these goals over time and perpetually are self-evident to us. Today, however, our reasons are concretized and analyzed in particular. Our strategic planning concerns the administration of justice to the crime of Tempi where our inner sense of justice has found you guilty and this is a first taste of your “punishment”. It is heard from here and there that you assigned the station master in his place, it is heard that you came to an understanding with your brother Agapios Charakopoulos, then director of the police department of Larissa, where he personally undertook the protection of the scene of the incident where he allowed the alteration of the crime scene and was promoted to brigadier general as a reward for his superiority in the cover-up of your government. You politically foster the criminals and continue to defend the line of your party unrepentantly. Doesn’t a lot come together, Maxime? They say that where there is smoke there is also fire and in yours there were certainly both. We heard you say that you couldn’t breathe, that you woke up from the smoke, the flames, and that you were afraid of getting hurt. What can the 57 people who were on the first train say? What can they say and those who will live with the nightmare of this night haunting them forever? With the smell of burnt flesh, with the image of the severed limbs forever engraved in their memory? What can parents say when they try to calm down but you and your stinking company will not allow them to do so? What can we say to all of us who know that we could have been on this train that night? We could because we recognize our economic class within this society.

You are pointing the finger at us and trumpeting that these do not fit into “Democracy”, that you are stronger, that all these delinquent and terrorist elements will be caught. In your democracy and that of your friends, there is no room for anything else because you have taken care of it, as you would not exist if you did not impose your social system and know it. That is why you have shielded this complex and seemingly impenetrable system of yours with the defenses of entanglement. After all, these mechanisms were evident from the first hours when you started weaving the cover-up plan. Should we talk about the editing of the dialogue between the station master and the train driver that was made from the first issue and promoted in all the mass propaganda media? About the compromised doors and the invisible camera optical materials? For fuel? About the right-wing findings of the think tank? For incomplete contracts while you were boldly questioning a security issue through the Minister of Transport Kostas Karamanlis? For rubbish? About prosecutors who sent parents to priests? All these and much more about your relevance in your effort to clean it up.

This murder is a state crime in a huge list of crimes, either in the field of wage slavery, such as the deaths of port workers who work for shipowners who cut millions, or in hospitals where health workers struggle with the minimum means to save lives that are lost as the NHS is increasingly understaffed, or crimes such as Pylos with its anti-immigrant death policies and the murders by the garbage of the Hellenic Police of immigrants in hellholes or out on the streets. All these are murders that revolve around the altar of profit and the survival of the powerful.

So the time has come to crush the bastards who oppress us with their political hegemony, those who reveal to us every day the most violent façade of institutionalized power. Audacious people and thieves like the whining Maximos who, throwing out stubborn humanist parties, speaks of “defending” weak citizens and thugs who poison society in an attempt to victimize. Your pitiful self-pity only causes us disgust, when you paved the way for the cover-up of the murder of the 57 in Tempi with your brother, we did not see your little ear sweating. You talk about terrorists and we will agree with you because for us it is an integral part of our action to return as much as possible to you the pain and violence that you have caused and to terrorize you until the final fall. Because the only true justification is the one that comes from the hands of the urban guerrillas.

The choice of the double attack states that our goal is not limited only to current affairs and the search for temporary leaders, but is part of the timeless pattern of counterattack against the state, capital and power. We become the direct attack, the armed hand that does not wait for it to be bitten in order to weaponize but strikes first if it deems it necessary. At the same time, we become the prevention and treatment of a sick reality by hitting each MP and his uniformed protector where they feel the most safe. The time has come for the anti-authoritarian movement to return as a threat in the public sphere with attacks of small or large power against the world of power. To stand up to our political identity. We respond to repressive barrages with incendiary measures and to state pressure with more on our part.

We are building in the here and now another world in rupture with the existing. Organized authoritarianism will always find us opposed to the protection of property and the monopoly of violence. The state is the best means of preserving private property, the system of injustice and inequality. It is the harmony of organic evolution that creates the variety of color and form. This is what we admire in the flower. The organized action of people who are connected to the spirit of solidarity so that at some point fear will change camp and one day it will cease to exist.

P.S.: We dedicate this action as a tribute to the people who recently lost their lives through their actions, choosing to walk in the paths of the urban guerrillas.
