January 2025

Each day we witness the war against immigrants in every way. From their over-exploitation as cheap labour and their countless imprisonments in detention centres, to their torture in the A.T. police stations, the mass murders in detention centres, the pushbacks and drownings in the Aegean sea, these murderous anti-immigrant policies are an integral part of the Greek state’s agenda for its capitalist reproduction.

The social and class war of the Greek state has two aspects. On the one hand, it proceeds to create large surplus populations which, as the most impoverished part of the working class, are at times exploited by domestic capital. Other times, it uses the state itself, which with its rhetoric creates the necessary “internal enemy” that threatens the local proletariat.

In this way, the national spirit is cultivated and elevated, ultimately giving the state the necessary social consensus to participate unhindered in the genocide in Palestine and to proceed with the further militarization of its borders within the context of the climate of war preparation that it is creating within itself.

In the last few months alone, we have seen dozens of murders of migrants off the coast of the Aegean sea. The recent murder of 8 migrants in Rhodes, after the attack by the Greek coast guard, with some of them dismembered, came to complement their other attacks on Lesbos, Kos and Samos in October with dozens of people dead and missing. For these reasons, we carried out an intervention with slogans and sabotage in the apartment building where Vasilios Tsiaplias (vice president of the Central Macedonia Coast Guard Association) lives, as a minimal sign of solidarity with the migrants who experience the state’s death policy, their dehumanization and the invisibility of their lives on a daily basis.

HERE DROWNED, THERE BOMBARDED, IN THE WORLD OF THE BOSSES WE ARE ALL FOREIGNERS

WE ARE TOGETHER WITH THE IMMIGRANTS, AGAINST COPS AND NAZIS

SOLIDARITY WITH THE COMRADES PERSECUTED FOR THE AMPELOKIPI CASE
