( Athens,Greece) Direct Action Cores – Accepting responsibility for the arson attack on the house of union cop Theodoros Foukas.

The Direct Action Cores take responsibility for the arson attack on the house of the trade union police officer, Theodoros Foukas, in the Byron area in the early hours of 1/3. For three years now, our group, through the strategy of personal targeting of representatives of power, has been trying to put into practice the motto ” MAY FEAR CHANGE CAMP “. Our visits to the homes of all of them keeps a low-intensity conflict in miniature, a psychological war against the physical target through fear, and responds on a minimal scale to the real terrorism that has its foibles in the television studios, in the courts, in the police stations, in the parliamentary offices.

Our attacks are snapshots of rebellion against the eradicators of our dreams. A collective march against the orders of power and the bowed heads that accompany them and which aims, among other things, to maintain a comprehensive logic. Organized political violence that places political strategy in an overall context. Where social competition escapes predetermined norms, set dates and becomes unpredictable, daring, radical, dangerous.

Our visit to Foucault’s home is an act of international solidarity with political prisoners in prisons around the world. In Chile, the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Greece. In a period of kinetic recession, restoring international solidarity is not a simple task for practical anarchists. It is a non-negotiable moral obligation so that our incarcerated comrades do not become some forgotten cases of bygone history, but instead are living examples that fuel the will to fight and motivate action.

For Francisco Solar, Monica Caballero, Alfredo Cospito, Nikos Maziotis, Dimitris Koufontinas, Toby Shone, Daniela Klette, Aldo and Luca Hernandez, Anna Beniamino, Marcelo Vijorel.

In memory of Barbara Balzerani. 

” It was necessary to anticipate the enemy, to be one step ahead of him, to acquire an aggressive mentality and to fully utilize the potential of a movement that was still not disarmed by tactics, by the tactical caliphates of political alchemy without any credibility. Huddled in a crowd of companions, immediately “after”, we honor so much pain in that emotional unnatural atmosphere of extreme moments, those during which anything can happen and nothing is now in place. A mouth-watering mixture of fear, anger, pain, with the thick taste of moments of maximum emotional charge and involvement. I could hear the shouts, the slogans, the curses, the threats. All a hug, compact, all one voice at that moment. How lucky to be together at such times, so many, to take and give courage .” (Barbara Balzerani)
