Everyone to the Streets

Statement by the Occupied Athens Polytechnic

The arrests of the comrades and the heavy charges against them cause no awkwardness, they bring solidarity.
The attacks on spaces, occupations and places of struggle will bring no isolation, but even higher doggedness and crouch.

Since the ministries say nothing, we will.

Since the media connect nothing, we will.

The military-type raid of the Anarchist Space “Resalto” in Keratsini.

A space of intervention and counter-information which, as all spaces of struggle, never covered its animosity to those repressing and its solidarity to the repressed, openly and publicly.

…something annoying for the minister.

The arrest, on the same night, of all who gathered in support of the comrades in a nearby square and following, in the town hall of Nikaia, as well as those who gathered at the point of assassination of Alexis Grigoropoulos a year later.

…something annoying for the minister.

Of the police-occupied Athens, the 13,000 cops, the body controls, the blockage of the Polytechnic, their anxiety to repress the demonstration of December 6th.

…but the minister will be annoyed much further.

The plan of terrorisation that he has put into practice is bound to fail.

The colleagues of the murderer cops who swarmed Athens today caused no fear, they caused rage.

The arrests of the comrades and the heavy charges against them cause no awkwardness, they bring solidarity.

The attacks on spaces, occupations and places of struggle will bring no isolation, but even higher doggedness and crouch.

NO HOSTAGE IN THE HANDS OF THE MURDERERS

FREEDOM TO THE 22 COMRADES OF RESALTO, CHARGED WITH FELONIES AND TO THE 43 COMRADES IN SOLIDARITY WHO ARE UNDER TRIAL RIGHT NOW AT THE COURTHOUSE OF PIREAUS

FREEDOM TO THE 12 ARRESTEES OF EXARCHEIA, IN THE FABRICATED SHOW OF POLICE FORCE

RESIST THEIR PLAN FOR TOTALITARIAN OPPRESION

MASS RESPONSE TO THE ASSASSINATIONS, THE BEATINGS, THE ARRESTS, THE MEDIA LIES

THEY ARE GOING TO LOSE THE BET OF SOCIAL CONSENSUS

EVERYONE TO THE STREETS.
