Anarchists Claim Responsibility For Athens Bomb At "The Mall"


Two Greek anarchist groups - Wild Freedom and Instigators of Social Explosion - apparently took responsibility for the explosion at "The Mall" last Sunday which injured two security guards. The two anarchist groups said they staged the bomb attack in protest to wealthy “capitalists” and the recent raids against anarchist squats (The squats that they are referring to include Villa Amalias, and the Villa Maria Calas, etc. which were illegally occupied by extreme leftist and anarchist groups and apparently used to house materials used for weapons such as Molotov bombs, clubs, slabs of cement, etc, and then used in protests against the riot police).

“For us, the mall and every mall is a cemetery for people and real values. That’s why we hit it,” the groups said in a joint statement on a Leftist website often used by groups to claim responsibility for attacks. “Those murdered by capitalism are buried in the foundations of malls,” it added.

The text also refers to a police state and occupations, and there is an indirect critique of SYRIZA and the Greek Communist Party (KKE) as well as the role of the Golden Dawn party.

At the same time, their statement expresses its solidarity to the imprisoned anarchists in Greece and abroad, to the members of the terrorist organization "the Cells of Fire", to the "unrepentant activists -and members of the notorious November 17 terrorist organization- Dimitris Koufodinas and Savvas Xiros". At the same time the anarchists also call on others to "exchange ideas and know-how", and (quite shockingly) to also arm each other with Kalashnikov guns and bullets and reclaim (or reconquer) the streets and neighborhoods. They also say that they have to commit robberies as well as seize buildings.

"We are anarchists, and enemies of democracy. And if our action is condemned by the political system we have long condemned the political system in its own disaster," noted the text, and then concludes by saying "long live anarchy!".
