The following article is an unedited Babelfish translation taken from the Greek Satirical weekly To Pontiki.
Proclamation – Manifesto of promise for new blood
“The revolutionary Fight undertakes the responsibility for the armed attack on 5 January against police officers SUBDUE that guarded the ministry of culture in Exarchia, as answer in the [anandri] murder of Alexandros [Grigoropoyloy]. Also, it undertakes the responsibility for the attack on 23 December against the prison-van SUBDUE in [Goydi]”.
With this preface the Revolutionary Fight undertakes the responsibility for the two attacks that all these days all were certain that the particular organisation indeed has realised. Besides in the unique postscript of his [entekaselidis] [pyknogrammenis] proclamation, which you will read entire in pages 23 – 25 and 40 – 43, undertakes “the responsibility for the placement of explosive mechanism in the offices of multinational petrolic Shell in the P. Faliron in the 24 passed October”. This proclamation differs considerably from oldest in a line points, which reveal certain new sides comparatively with that we knew for the organisation so much from the previous attacks what – mainly – from her proclamations. Is [alloste] common admission that each her appearance it adds something new so much as for the methods what as for style of writing.
Attack in the police
1 Firstly contains multiple “warnings” to the Hellenic Police and the police officers, something however which we have also seen in her previous texts, specifically in what [synodeyse] the attack in the department of Abundant. Consequently here it does not exist… “news”.
2 After a long list of “victims of government owned terrorism” and police officers that were not condemned, we read a straight line threat: “The murderer [Korkoneas] cannot constitute exception and we are certain that finally they will be small time duration his eve in the prison. We wait for him at an early date near us…”.
3 Becomes extensive report in the “innumerable murders of Greeks and foreigners socially [apokliron]”, “tortures of immigrants” etc. from police, harbour and [synorofylakes].
4 From equal extensive is the report, first time with so much details, in the attack outside from the ministry of Culture, but also first time with so much [apaxiotikoys] characterizations (“armed “hens””, “[ripsaspides] that run are hidden”, “[anandroi] and coward”) for the police officers SUBDUE, while the organisation supports that the police officers that it opposite had her [antapedosan] fires while they could!
5 It rejects the all scripts counterterrorist [peri] located “basic suspect” and ringer for the members of [E].[A] characterizing him means of dulling… American women!
6 It causes the police to give in the publicity the prison-van that was struck in [Goydi] claiming that it has accepted 10 balls.
7 It explains why it selected it strikes in Exarchia.
“Piece of revolutionary movement”
If the all [parapano] elements are rather object of police reportage, the proclamation has a line other “qualitative” elements which do not pass unnoticed and are revealing the final objectives of Revolutionary Fight.
1 Firstly it attempts straightly “it colors” from his viewpoint the social conflicts that [diablepei] that it is exceptionally likely they are marked the next period. It speaks for “inevitable social explosions” and it prompts in a “armed confrontation with the arrangement and [tsirakia]”, which “is not only desirable, but also feasible”…
2 It considers that “the armed fight is basic component between the other of revolutionary movement”, in a obvious effort claim, first time, a [kinimatiki] and political legalisation, without in deed [antidiastellei] the social movements with the armed conflict. On the contrary “it sees” armed thing as department of “revolutionary movement”.
3 In this frame it attacks in its entirety the political parties ascribing to them “fear front in the size of social rage”. The more intense attack in any case it starts at the Communist Party of Greece, while from his arrows does not escape nor the Against power Movement, from her cause of statement, the content of which are published in the page of 8 leaf that circulates.
4 It uses the hypothetical script of extensive popular revolt and the creation of one Athenian “[kommoynas]” so that it places with “military” terms the “necessity of” “armed violence”.
[Elladokentriki] approach
In previous proclamations was reported to him the Revolutionary Fight in the first place in the international economic situation and crisis in order to it will include in her this Greek dimension. Now, on the occasion the mobilisations of December, it differentiates perceptibly his reports dedicating more space in the domestic setting and the hellenic side of crisis.
Is almost characteristic the extensive report in the Greek economy and society with terms of “journalistic” topicality wanting it approaches wider audience.
It would not be, we believe, exaggeration if we said that, after a five-year circle of action with phases climaxing and recession, this organisation, having substitutes almost completely dislocated or withdrawn from the limelight organisations, attempts a step more beyond: conquer the acceptance that, some period, recorded the polls for the 17[N].
With raw material modern “[Dekembriana]” and the proven weakness of state and political institutions and organisations to check what were played in the streets of Greek cities, with climax the conflicts and the destructions in the streets of Athens, the Revolutionary Fight obviously consider that it should it takes his own share.
It is [alloste] characteristic the phrase that “our choice to act with the particular way ([s].[s].: attack in SUBDUE) was in the first place political”.
Last one – but no insignificant – element is the lack of report, beyond the expected threats at the police, in the future of organisation and, mainly, in her future objectives. Even if more already we have pointed out a objective: this proclamation constitutes… “invitation interesting” with horizon the next social conflicts. This from only his is already a enormous question…
And, for those who they have the fury they connect the [E].[A] with the 17[N], what we can realise they are that their common element it is henceforth the invitation for integration in armed. We in deed risk to say, with a obvious dose of… risk, that, as the 17[N], the [E].[A] encourages the creation of also other similar organisations wanting it constitutes a type of “armed avant-garde”, claiming rather the hegemony, but no essentially and the exclusivity in the space of organisations of this type.
From [oy] and the enormous extent of proclamation, but also her form, which refers in… “manifesto”!
In no case however we cannot light the heart, as enough they imply, say that 17[N] and Revolutionary Fight emanate from the same ideological uterus. The ideological chaos that separates him is visible via naked eye…
Rather however it will need we come back, after this history has still a lot of bread…
