OPINION - The front against terrorism in Greece

(TO VIMA) - It is an insult for a so-called self-appointed armed defender of the people to pretend to honor democracy.

This country has paid enough for the criminal action of all sorts of terrorist groups that every now and again murder in the name of “the people’s” interests. Democracy can tolerate even those who subvert it, but not ruthless murdered and rapists.

Christodoulos Xiros and his buddies cannot convince anyone with their raving delusions. They are condemned in the consciousness of the overwhelming majority of people as cold-hearted criminals, whose only “service” is to create tension and problems in the country’s international relations.

Violence and its wildest form terrorism cannot be acceptable in any democratic society. The universal condemnation and isolation from the full spectrum of the political world is a powerful tool in the hands of democracy. The threats of paranoid gunmen can and must be dealt with their complete depreciation, with the creating of a democratic front against terrorism. A country that is suffering, a society that is paying for the crisis does not have the luxury of being against the neo-Nazis on the one hand and the leftist “punishers” on the other.

Violence and terrorism never solved the problems of any country or society. All it achieved was to create new problems and new disasters. The few morons who are charmed by the hate and blood must think - if they can - of the effects of another blind terrorist attack by Xiros and his buddies. Let them remember what happened in the past with the assassinations and terrorist bomb attacks and let them consider the consequences.

Despite the problems and malfunctions, democracy is historically proven to be the safest shield for social and individual rights, as well as the guarantor of social stability and the people’s safety. Thanks to these rights Xiros is free today, hopefully not for long, to make his threats. These rights concern all of us and along with the political system and democratic institutions, it is our duty to protect them. With the unanimous and universal condemnation of terrorist, as it already happened, as well as the depreciation and marginalization of the few, incorrigible assassins, who want to cause new trouble for the country.
