The message that the state sends us with their police is do not go out into the streets. But the more they hit us again we will stay in the streets because we are
Alexis's murder on 6 December last year we made clear something that looked a long time: police brutality and impunity and mechanism strength of state repression. So they said, and still says, Alexis's murder was the straw that broke the camel.
The murder of this young man joined with the murders of dozens of young migrants, ghosts in the first world that their only crime was to leave their countries destroyed by war, exploitation and poverty. The murder of Alexis joined with many other cases where the police are as protective arm of the state that appears only to repress, oppress and destroy. The murder of Alexis coupled with the disaster that corrupt and deceitful policies bring and produce to the lack of employment, elimination of labor rights, the destruction of life itself. Murder case Alexis joined with the dark clouds that young people in this country are on the horizon of his life. He brought the rain. People
differently decided to celebrate the new year is gathered outside the central prison in Athens on 31 December. There, the prisoners, particularly women prisoners, most prisoners "common", took to the windows of their cells, burned tissue and shouted slogans against the police and freedom, while people outside shouted solidarity with them and so was celebrated the turn of the year, giving the start to a new year of solidarity and struggle for a just world for all. The same thing happened in several cities.
The last days of December, after overcoming the first shock, the power decided to attack again. The left marches repression resulted in more than 250 people arrested, 65 of which are already in prison. A score will be prosecuted to the antiterrorism law. Also many of the migrants who grabbed the days of the clashes were deported to their countries. Of them do not even have data.
addition to this face of repression, the December 22 attack was very different from what we are accustomed. This day, Konstantina, a woman, immigrant from Bulgaria, a trade unionist in his work as a cleaner for public buildings received after months of threats, an unprecedented attack. When he returned home this evening, two men attacked her, forced to swallow acid, and thrown his head in it. Konstantina
is one of the most active women in their struggle for union rights in the area of \u200b\u200btheir work, for better working and living conditions. Konstantina now is in the hospital, and lost an eye, his face is disfigured and still fighting for his life that is at risk.
Since then, several armed solidarity activities to raise money to support and to disseminate this attack on women who fight for their rights and their lives. It is amazing how much of things that are done. Almost every day there are acts in many cities of Greece, and occupations of public buildings and labor organizations, rallies, statements, speeches and street bazaars. One of the latest and most organized was the coordination of trade unions that exist in Athens (of workers in libraries, motorcyclists workers, waiters etc.) that called for a march. It is the first time these trade unions decide to do something together and so the march was held with the participation of many people.
In this environment of resistance and repression (the one always goes with the other), the 5th of January there was an armed attack on police officers antimotines en Eksarxia, el mismo barrio donde fue asesinado Alexis. El atentado que dejó un policía herido lo realizaron dos personas armadas con un Kalashnikov. Después de días una organización armada llamada Lucha Revolucionaria, que existe desde el 2002, sacó una declaración diciendo que fueron ellos los que atacaron a la policía como respuesta al asesinato de Alexis y a la represión policiaca. Su declaración se titulaba “a las balas contestamos con balas” e invitaba a la gente a la revolución armada.
Lo que siguió tampoco tiene antecedentes en la historia que los más jóvenes podemos recordar. Eksarxia fue cercado por la policía, se prohibió la salida y la entrada of people in their homes while the police forces went into bars and pulling people home by dragging and hitting. Just a few hours took more than 60 people at a police headquarters.
For a few days later he had called a march of high school and college students, teachers and other sectors and political and social organizations. The first start after the Christmas holidays which took place on 9 January. The march was attended by thousands of people and was a great march, peaceful and strong. The number of riot police in central Athens was impressive. Dozens of groups of policemen guarding almost every corner. No shot or rocks, less bombs. As he was finishing the march the police chased protesters throwing chemicals. A group of many people chased them to a nearby street and were forced to enter a building they found the door open.
While there were locked, no way out, the police threw them chemicals and tear gas and was waiting outside to be arrested. Lawyers and caring people came to the scene to offer help and get people out of the building. The police did not let either get closer to the place where the enclosed. The lawyers were put in the forefront trying to pass. There also were employees of the media who drew the pictures and videos of what was happening. The riot police grabbed several of the journalists, some are broke their cameras, others beaten and left wounded and eventually arrested the 14 lawyers who were there and took them to the police headquarters.
The next day workers from the media and journalism students occupied the headquarters of the union "charro" of workers in the media. The occupation lasted several days and allowed these people to organize. Decided to join the artwork they did in December and use it to spread what is really going on. At the same time together material that can be used for the December detainees have charges such as resistance to order, loaded with stones and Molotov and in most cases are false and only witnesses to the police who arrested him.
In one of the many marches three Roma children 10 to 13 years out there. Yelling at the cops walk when they see two chavitos which are carrying a banner at a school in the suburbs. We notice that you know, when they see them and run to hug and laugh together telling know what. In December gave us hope, children were taught to break down barriers that we impose and the repression forces us to be closer than ever to avoid getting lost, but still not quite know how.
The government opted for what is called zero tolerance. It's been three weeks since early January, the police pursued the protesters after the marches. That tactic was first practiced in the demonstrations that were done in solidarity with Palestinians demanding the departure of the Israeli army in Gaza.
Then on Saturday January 24 was held in downtown Athens a march in solidarity with prisoners in a revolt last December. The march was called by different groups of anarchists and hierarchical and was attended by over 3000 people.
The march was strong, with slogans and very dynamic, and yet very peaceful. A few minutes after going through the Congress of the country, as at 3.00 pm, the march was attacked by dozens of groups of riot police. Without any provocation from the protesters, riot police encircled groups progress, threw dozens of bottles of chemicals (tear and asfixiójenos) on the heads of people and practically attacked the demonstrators with batons and hitting his legs.
The thing was seen earlier. Then they closed the center of Athens for some time before the march began and there were groups of riot police on every corner and street.
While people could not breathe because of the chemicals that we threw away, while there was no outlet for the protesters, riot police were everywhere and chemicals also, the whole demonstration was brutally attacked. There are people with wounds on their heads, legs, whole body. There was blood on the pavement. People had fallen on the floor, their bodies bent in two by not being able to breathe and the riot police were hitting.
seems to have been arrested but not yet know who, how, when ...
While people were leaving as I could on the street where he was attacked the riot police withdrew from there and headed to Exarxia, neighborhood where he was killed Alexis. There, in Exarxia, there were clashes between the riot with people who could stand for a while, threw more chemicals and eventually occupying the entire neighborhood with groups of riot in the streets, corners and neighborhood square. After three hours, at about 6.00 pm, withdrew from there and the thing began to calm.
The message that the state sends us with their police is that we do not go to the streets. That is the face of democracy in the country that claims to be the cradle of democracy. But the more they hit us again we will stay in the streets because they want to or do not want the streets are of us.
La Haine
s thousands of citizens gathered on Saturday to protest against Urbina led development barbaric English and Basque governments in relation to the TAV. The appointment was at 12:00 noon in the Plaza de Urbina but the morning turned out to be longer than expected. Dozens of buses departed from different points of Euskal Herria with the intention of approaching the mobilization and were precisely the ones who suffered the first attempts to boycott the act by the police. Already at the height of Arrigorriaga toll had placed control of the Civil Guard in which the agents set out to stop all the buses. Two masked and armed civilian guards to the teeth agreed to each of the vehicles to identify each and every one of the people traveling on the inside. 
A regional police helicopter was welcoming those who came to Urbina. Around 12:30 am on the streets of this small town could not be a pin Alava and expression gradually began to take shape. A large mobilization began to move towards the works of TAV through streets lined with banners with slogans alluding to the drying of this huge project. "Txikitzaileak: Zuenir porlanean Itoko to Nazareth?" (Destroyers: ahogaos in all your cement) read a of graffiti on the walls of the works. 
Gradually people began to return to Urbina where everyone waited for his acquaintances s in many cases without knowing what was happening in the works. On the way back to the bus much @ s suffered the wrath of 3 new police crews attending the activities and situations of real terror generated by trying to make a real ambush on the highway rural. Enboscada not missed the launch of rubber bullets at close range. Meanwhile he kept the helicopter flying over the works and harass the protesters. By 3 pm Urbina was a hotbed of citizenship @ s trying to reconnect with his companions, quietly eating a sandwich or go directly to the car to leave the village. At that time the phones were blazing, "police arrested 4 people", "Care to go another 3 vans to the works", "Care is now heading towards the bus" ... etc. 
agents were determined to act violently to the last moment. In fact you could see the hooded ertzainas accessed behind a bus and drive down to all people, was searched one by one. On the other hand, ertzainas Urbina surrounding the bowling alley with 30 people inside. When a citizen came to try to talk to the police command as detubieron without compunction. In addition to Urbina stood outside a Civil Guard control and one of the Ertzaintza in which identified a lot of people trying to leave. And so it once again, cops of all colors tried to show the society that negocietes of yours do not touch. In the same way that many more people showed no repression is possible with the love of the land and the dignity of a people who want to recover their lands to the negligence of their rulers.
