"In the early hours of Monday 18/2, groups of comrades made a coordinated
attack against various targets in the suburbs of Athens (Greece), which
represent different sides of a reality that not only we don’t take for
granted but on the contrary, we plan with hate its destruction. Against
the authoritarian tombstone of the general social apathy, we promote the
chaos of direct action.

Unnegotiable solidarity to the urban guerilla captives of C.C.F.,
F.A.I.-I.R.F., A.L.F., E.L.F. and to all persecuted and fugitive comrades.

Our attacks were the following:

We painted and sprayed the walls and windows, jammed the lock of the front
door and used a hammer against the front glass of two Public Service
Centers (Κ.Ε.Π.).

We painted the front glass of a fur and leather shop.

We painted and sprayed the walls and jammed the lock of the front door of
the central office of the nationalist student organization DRASIS-KES
(ΔΡΑΣΙΣ-ΚΕΣ). We also tore apart their posters in the nearby area.

We sprayed and painted the walls and the garage doors of the home of a
bastard who poisons stray animals.

We sprayed and jammed the lock of the front door of a tax office building.

We spray-painted the office of a laboratory animals department.

We spray-painted the home of a judge.

We spray-painted a pet-shop.

We spray-painted the walls of a church office building.

We spray-painted a butcher shop.

We vandalised with spray-paint a BMW.

We vandalised with spray-paint and smashed with hammer the car of a hunter.

We also spray-painted squares and walls inside university areas.

"The last years a strenuous attack is becoming all the more distinctive around us. This of the imposition of the domination of the human species of the rest.
this attack finds it's 'roots' and 'traditions' in vomiting culture of anthropocentrism that defines the human species as the ultimate oppressor who will use every means so as to satisfy his fictitious needs and also his sick pleasures. Nothing escapes from the mechanism of 'usage' in the form of utilization of all the physical and animal world. For example a stream or a free animal in nature have no self-worth unless they become drinkable water, steak on our plate, pet, attraction, exhibit, etc.
The same tactic of oppression is used amongst our species. The human animal have no self-worth unless they make up a piece of a stereotype social role or a gear in capitalistic chain of production. Worker-employer-unemployed-boss, woman-wife-mother-lover, man-'family guard'-financier, legal - illegal, gender discriminations, etc. In this war we need a critical sight so as to distinguish the parallel properties of the exploiter and the one who is being exploited.
The worker who is being exploited by the boss, he is maybe exploiting his own species and at the same he is dominant against nature and the rest of the species.
The deconstruction of these rotten forms is imperative regardless where they come from and also where they are heading to.
One of these forms is also the industry of attraction, with the animal as the protagonists. Taken from different corners of the earth and placed in a few meters of 'freedom' that are provided by the mechanism of zootechnics, they receive the most harsh attack that one can handle. The violent kidnap from their native environment, their birth and also their everlasting stay in enslavement.
In the altar of profit, in conditions of modern prisons of attraction, behind the mask of entertainment, the educational training and the so called biodiversity sustainability, captive animals in the role of the entertainer - exhibit - product are ready for 'consumption' from the 'buyers' public.
Basically only a subordinate society could see in the place of their enslaved brothers a recreational or educational spectacle, satisfying in this way their alienated wants. From the above entertainment slave market our beloved multinational sponsors could not be absent, suspecting that in this game there are a lot of money involved and expanding their field of exploitation also outside of the human species.
They have chosen to sponsor the accommodation of a popular convict. His name is Puma and its sponsor is our well known Puma company.
For this reason a 'link' of this chain of stores located in Mesogeion street in Athens has become a target.
On Friday the 25/11/2011 it received a symbolic paint attack in the front displays and on the logo sign.
This attack is in solidarity for the total liberation activist Walter Bond.

Greek:
"Τα τελευταία χρόνια μία εντεινόμενη επίθεση γίνεται όλο και πιο διακριτή γύρω μας. Αυτή της επιβολής της
κυριαρχίας που επιτάσσει το ανθρώπινο είδος απέναντι σε όλα τα υπόλοιπα. Η επίθεση αυτή βρίσκει τις "ρίζες"
και τις "παραδόσεις" της πάνω στην εμετική κουλτούρα του ανθρωποκεντρισμού που ορίζει το ανθρώπινο είδος
ως τον απόλυτο δυνάστη που θα χρησιμοποιήσει κάθε μέσο ώστε να ικανοποιήσει τις πλασματικές του ανάγκες
αλλά και τις αρρωστημένες του απολαύσεις. Τίποτα δεν ξεφεύγει από το μηχανισμό "αξιοποίησης" στο πλαίσιο
αναγωγής όλου του φυσικού και ζωικού κόσμου σε αξία χρήσης. Για παράδειγμα ένα ρυάκι και ένα ελεύθερο ζώο στη
φύση δεν έχουν αυταξία παρά μόνο αν καταλήξουν πόσιμο νερό, αξιοθέατο, μπριζόλα στο πιάτο μας, κατοικίδιο, έκθεμα κλπ.
Η ίδια τακτική επιβολής χρησιμοποιείται μέσα και στο δικό μας είδος. Τα ανθρώπινα ζώα δεν έχουν αυταξία παρά
μόνο αν αντίστοιχα αποτελέσουν κομμάτι στερεότυπων κοινωνικών ρόλων ή γρανάζι της καπιταλιστικής αλυσίδας παραγωγής.
Εργάτρια-υπάλληλος-άνεργος-αφεντικό, γυναίκα-σύζυγος-μητέρα-ερωμένη, άντρας- στυλοβάτης-κουβαλητής,νόμιμοι-παράνομοι,
έμφυλοι διαχωρισμοί κλπ. Σε αυτό τον πόλεμο χρειάζεται κριτικό μάτι ώστε να διακρίνεις τις παράλληλες ιδιότητες
εκμεταλλευτή και εκμεταλλευόμενου. Ο εργάτης που δέχεται εκμετάλλευση από το αφεντικό του, ενδέχεται να εκμεταλλεύεται
το είδος του και ταυτόχρονα να κυριαρχεί στη φύση και στα υπόλοιπα είδη.
Αποτελεί πρόταγμα η αποδόμηση αυτών των σάπιων
δομών οποιασδήποτε προέλευσης αλλά και κατεύθυνσης.
Μία από αυτές τις δομές αποτελεί και η βιομηχανία θεάματος με πρωταγωνιστές τα ζώα. Παρμένα από διάφορες γωνιές της γης
και τοποθετημένα στα λίγα μέτρα "ελευθερίας" που τους παρέχει ο μηχανισμός της ζωοτεχνίας, δέχονται την πιο σκληρή επίθεση που
θα μπορούσε να δεχθεί κάποιος. Τη βίαιη απαγωγή τους από τον ίδιο τους τον τόπο καθώς και τη γέννηση τους αλλά και την δια βίου
παραμονή τους σε συνθήκες σκλαβιάς. Στο βωμό του κέρδους, σε συνθήκες σύγχρονων φυλακών θεάματος, με προκάλυμα την ψυχαγωγία,
την εκπαίδευση και τη δήθεν διατήρηση της βιοποικιλότητας, έγκλειστα ζώα στο ρόλο διασκεδαστή-εκθέματος-προϊόντος είναι έτοιμα προς
"κατανάλωση" από το "αγοραστικό" κοινό. Στην ουσία, μόνο μια υποταγμένη κοινωνία θα μπορούσε να δει στη θέση των σκλαβωμένων
αδελφών της ένα ψυχαγωγικό και εκπαιδευτικό θέαμα, ικανοποιώντας έτσι τις αλλοτριωμένες της ορέξεις. Δεν θα μπορούσαν να λείπουν
από αυτό το ψυχαγωγικό σκλαβοπάζαρο οι αγαπητοί μας πολυεθνικοί κολοσσοί στο ρόλο του χορηγού, διακρίνοντας πως μέσα σε αυτό το παιχνίδι
παίζει χοντρη κονόμα και επεκτείνοντας έτσι το πεδίο εκμετάλευσης τους και πέρα από το ανθρώπινο είδος.
Επέλεξαν να χορηγήσουν τη διαμονή ενός δημοφιλούς σε όλους κατάδικο. Το όνομα του είναι Πούμα και το όνομα του χορηγού του η γνωστή σε όλους
μας Puma.
Για το λόγο αυτό στόχος αποτέλεσε ένας κρίκος αυτής της αλυσίδας καταστημάτων.
Την Παρασκευή 25/11/2011 δέχτηκε συμβολική επίθεση με μπογιές η βιτρίνα και η ταμπέλα του καταστήματος στην οδό Μεσογείων.

"26.08.2010 - Heliodendro, Kastoria (Greece)
One of the biggest greek mink farms has been hit in our first night of action. All the cages imprisoning animals in 37 sheds of the farm were opened and machinery sabotaged. To let the animals out part of the fence was cut and both gates opened smashing the locks (using the farmer's tools). Two hours and half of work and we could run away along with thousands of minks (according to media 50.000 were released).

27.08.2010 - Kaloneri, Siatista (Greece)
Another mink farm was our target for a second night of action, this time near the town of Kaloneri, on a road where 10 farms can be easily seen. 8 sheds full of animals had their cages opened in just ten minutes. Before leaving we opened a gate to let the animals run towards freedom (according to media 2.000 were released).

In both cases we had checked carefully the farms to know how to organize a faster and more secure action.
With these actions we decided to hit the fur industry and especially the disgusting 'fur towns' of Siatista and Kastoria, plagued with hundreds of fur stores. Liberating animals from cages is a way to put our ideas into practice. We oppose the oppression, exploitation and imprisonment that this civilization has created for any living being, regardless of species, race, gender or sexual preferences.

In these desperate days we still strive for freedom. Eat vegan on the barricades!

Greek media has reported that as many as 50,000 mink were released from cages. In an article in the Makedonia newspaper, the president of a Greek fur breeders association said that it was a "black day" for the industry. The owner of one of the targeted farms estimated his losses at 1 million Euros and said that his farm had been ruined.

THESSALONIKI, Greece � Police say break-ins at two fur farms have set more than 50,000 minks on the loose in northern Greece.

A statement from local police says the break-ins occurred Friday and
Saturday near the city of Kastoria, which is the center of Greece's
fur industry.

"About a year now there is some conversation going on regarding an
arbitrary building on mnt. Olympus at the location 'Megali Gourna',
the so called 'Christakis'.
It is built right beside the homonymous hut that serves the purpose
of an emergency shelter with it's little occupation of space and
with 7 beds.
The arbitary building is made by some unconscious locals who want
to show off their eco-mountaineering interests.
Nobody has ever thought that this building is inside the national
park of Olympus in which any action of construction is forbidden.
The ecological destruction started with the opening of a new dirt
road from the villages down below and reaches the height of 2450 m.
The primary cause of the opening was the interests of the local
livestock farmers and afterwards come the 'nature loving interests'
of the club.
And so they constructed it with rocks on the outside and concrete
slabs on the inside, with a nice wooden inside roof and
cement and stone on the outside.
They also provide fire places on the yard. One nice tourist
destination!
If the weather permits it it is crowded every week with ambitious
explorers with their wild monster-cars for a tour in the wild
nature of the mountain.
They also go there with their bikes and they even try to reach some
of the nearby summits.
But.. all of the above is illegal.
There was some reaction and fortunately quite dynamic from some
people who care but it was restricted only to paper work and
petitions.
The case has been on the radio, the tv and in the papers but they
only accomplished to get a demolition order.
This order is up till now inside some drawers of the paralyzed
power.
If this order was about the house of a normal citizen it would have
been executed immediately and with a police escort.
But in the case of this arbitary building many people have got in
hold some money for their silence, and that is for sure. So much
money that they now suffer from amnesia.
Nobody from the goverment takes the political cost for the
demolition as there are many votes in jeopardy which guide each of
the choices of our public servants.

And because nobody from the government gives any solution this
role is taken by direct action.
Not from the cops side but from the side of the saw and the crowbar!
A short visit to the building. Damage to the horizontal columns of
the roof on the inside. If it is not repaired the weight of
the snow will demolish it during the forthcoming winter.
Some damage on their nice door - which has a lock on it - some
emergency shelter it is with a locked door - and a nice informative
message on the outside wall for the visitors.

This visit is only the first step in order to wake the beast of
this rotten state mechanism so as to crawl up there and do
it's job.
TO DEMOLISH IT.

If this will not happen soon the next visit will cause great damage
in the building and will render it not habitable and not worthy for
any repair.
The more the times they repair it the more it will be damaged once
more from now on.
To close this report. Don't be in a hurry to criticize the correct
spelling of the message on the outside. The words are written in
purpose in the wrong way so as to remind you that
the political system of the 300 idiots is equally wrong.
As this arbitary building is going to be demolished one way or the
other in the same way your filthy system with which you make play
of our lives, will also be demolished.

Greek:
Ένα χρόνο τώρα γίνεται συζήτηση για το αυθαίρετο κτίσμα στον
Όλυμπο, στη θέση "Μεγάλη Γούρνα Ολύμπου�, το ονομαζόμενο ως και
καταφύγιο "Χριστάκη".
Είναι πια χτισμένο δίπλα ακριβώς από την ομώνυμη καλύβα που
εξυπηρετεί το σκοπό του καταφυγίου ανάγκης, σε μικρό χώρο με τα
λιγοστά κρεβάτια της.
Το αυθαίρετο κτίσμα έγινε από τους ασυνειδήτους κατοίκους της
περιοχής που θέλουν να προβάλουν το οικολογικό - ορειβατικό τους
ενδιαφέρον.
Δεν σκέφτηκε άραγε κανείς ότι το κάνουν μέσα στα όρια του Δρυμού
του Ολύμπου μέσα στα οποίο απαγορεύεται το οτιδήποτε.
Η οικολογική καταστροφή ξεκινά από τη διάνοιξη του δρόμου που
ξεκινά από τα χωριά χαμηλά και φτάνει μέχρι το υψόμετρο των 2450
μέτρων.
Πρωταρχική αιτία της διάνοιξης ήταν τα κτηνοτροφικά ενδιαφέρονται
των κατοίκων και στη συνέχεια τα "φυσιολατρικά ενδιαφέροντα" της
παρέας τους.
Το χτίσανε λοιπόν όμορφα με πέτρα στο εξωτερικό και τσιμεντότουβλα
μέσα, μια ωραία ξύλινη σκεπή και τσιμεντένο και πέτρα εξωτερικά.
Έχουν και τις θέσεις για φωτιά έξω στον προαύλιο χώρο. Μια χαρά
τουριστικός προορισμός!
Καιρού επιτρέποντος ανεβαίνουν κάθε εβδομάδα φιλόδοξοι εξερευνητές
με τα άγρια θηρία τους � αμάξια για μια βόλτα στην άγρια φύση του
βουνού.
Ανεβαίνουν με τις μηχανές τους μέχρι εκεί και προσπαθούν να
κατακτήσουν κάποια από τις γύρω κορυφές καβάλα σε αυτές.
Μόνο που όλα τα παραπάνω είναι εντελώς παράνομα.
Αντίδραση υπήρξε και ευτυχώς δυναμική από τους ενδιαφερόμενους αλλά
μόνο λεκτική και σε θεωρητικό επίπεδο.
Η υπόθεση έχει φτάσει στο ραδιόφωνο, την τηλεόραση και στον έγγραφο
τύπο αλλά το μόνο πού έχει καταφέρει ο κόσμος είναι να εκδοθεί μια
απόφαση κατεδάφισης.
Αυτή η απόφαση μέχρι στιγμής δείχνει να έχει μπει βαθειά σε κάποιο
από τα συρτάρια της παράλυτης εξουσίας.
Αν η απόφαση αφορούσε το σπίτι ενός απλού πολίτη αυτή θα είχε
εκτελεστεί άμεσα και με τη συνοδεία των μπάτσων.
Όμως στην περίπτωση του αυθαίρετου έχουν ταϊστεί πολλά στόματα
υπεύθυνων. Τόσο πολύ που έχουν πάθει αμνησία.
Κανείς από το κράτος δεν αναλαμβάνει το πολιτικό κόστος της
κατεδάφισης μιας και υπάρχουν εκλογικοί ψήφοι που
στηρίζουν την εκάστοτε επιλογή του κάθε κρατικού λειτουργού.
Και μιας και δεν αναλαμβάνει το κράτος να δώσει λύση τότε το ρόλο
αυτό τον αναλαμβάνει η άμεση δράση.
Όχι των μπάτσων αλλά αυτή του λοστού και του πριονιού!
Επίσκεψη λοιπόν στο κτίσμα. Πρόκληση ζημιάς στα υποστυλώματα της
σκεπής εσωτερικά. Οριακά αν δεν επισκευαστεί
θα την ρίξει το βάρος του χιονιού τον χειμώνα που έρχεται.
Φθορά στην όμορφή πόρτα τους� που διαθέτει κλειδαρία � τόσο
καταφύγιο ανάγκης θα είναι που στην ανάγκη θα το βρίσκεις κλειδωμένο
και ένα ωραιότατο ενημερωτικό μήνυμα στον εξωτερικό πέτρινο τοίχο
του για τους περαστικούς.
Η επίσκεψη ήταν μοναχά η πρώτη φάση για να ξυπνήσει το κτήνος του
σάπιου κρατικού μηχανισμού σας και να συρθεί
μέχρι εκεί και να κάνει τη δουλειά του.
ΝΑ ΤΟ ΚΑΤΕΔΑΦΙΣΕΙ.
Αν αυτό δεν γίνει σύντομα η επόμενη επίσκεψη θα προκαλέσει
τεράστιες ζημιές στο κτίσμα και θα το καταστήσει μια κατοικήσιμο
και ασύμφορο στην επισκευή του.
Όσες φορές επισκευάζεται τόσες και θα χαλάει από εδώ και στο εξής.
Κλείνοντας, μην βιαστεί κανείς να πει για τη σωστή γραφή τον λέξεων
του συνθήματος.
Είναι εκεί γραμμένες έτσι λάθος για να σας θυμίζουν ότι το πολιτικό
σύστημα των 300 ηλιθίων είναι εξίσου λάθος.
Όπως θα κατεδαφιστεί με τον ένα ή με τον άλλο τρόπο αυτό το
αυθαίρετο κτίσμα έτσι θα καταρρεύσει και το βρώμικο σύστημα μας με
το οποίο παίζετε τις ζωές μας.

Πυριφλεγέθωνκωκυτώς

According to media reports, on August 9th as many as 10,000 mink were released from cages at two fur farms near the city of Kozani in northern Greece. Despite the mobilization of local fur farmers, 3,000 mink have not been recaptured. Animal rights activists are suspected of involvement.

January 9 , 2009 -- Fur Farm Liberation Communique Released

anonymous communique:

"The night of December 14, our group trespassed on a mink farm outside Siatista, and liberated more than 1.000 mink.

We claim this action, for all the animals hit by cars, hunger and thirst, left to cannibalise each other, for the damages they may have caused to the local ecosystem. But first, the gang of fur-farmers should claim their own responsibility for the genocide they act out every day, for the brutal annihilation of hundreds of thousands of souls every year, for the innocent creatures they flay alive for being unlucky enough to be born with a beautiful fur, for the miserable conditions of captivity they force them into. Until then, we claim only the opportunity and the joy we share with these creatures to live free, some for a long time, others for short.

In the video we have published on the internet, the lack of fundamental sanitation rules is obvious. The animals feces hasn't been cleaned for ages. This isn't just the imprisoned animals problem being forced to live in a constantly polluted environment, it also raises a matter of public health. We call and challenge the state and those responsible to prove their existance and act upon the legislature, imposing the appropriate penalties.

Though we are aware that all this happens inside the hell-hole farms lawfully. Or at least we want to believe the lawful things and only happen. We call and challenge the 'farmers' to open to the public what's going on lawfully, inside their 'farms'. Just allow a journalist to go inside with a camera and have an ordinary report coming out. Show to the people you lawfully murder innocent creatures with anal electro-shock machines. Show to the people you murder innocent creatures in gas chambers. Share with us your exclusiveness in cries of agony. Do that and we will surrender to the authorities and claim our responsibilities according to the laws. What do you have to hide?

And to put an end to this fairy tail of fur keeping local communities alive as the farmers claim... 200 years ago local communities and whole states based their economy on human slavery. Apparently they had the same points with the fur farmers. But the world evolved and those that wouldn't mind that, were forced to mind it. The world keeps evolving and the fur trade finally meets with global odium. Those not minding that, will have to be forced to mind it. If you want money for your communities, bother yourselves with their environmental development. Right now, your fortunes are made of the blood of innocent souls. 10 years ago you were crying to the mass media --media of mass domestication-- claiming fur is going downwards, and you don't earn enough, you are forced to migrate and other bullshit. Now that you turned yourselves to ass kissers of the Russian riches your problems seem to be over. Beware, your problems have just started. Think upon your selections, because we'll be always in your way. When 10.000.000 children die of hunger every year, fur's niche marketing can't even touch our logic.

With the above reasons and on the occasion of our liberation action, we call everyone to found together a panhellenic (national) federation to fully ban the fur enterprises in our country. Contribute to this league by any means possible. Create cells in your area or act alone. Act legally or illegally. Organize peaceful demonstrations, spray paint slogans, destroy furs, break fur shop glass windows, invade fur farms and liberate animals. The only requirement we ask for, is the principle of non violence against human or other animals.

PS1: To whom fur farmer it may concern, to claim the EU's money pack for fur farms: Better plan on a generous insurance to cover your enterprise and don't you mind the money: you'll need it.

PS2: To mr. Bouzalis, mr Papadopoulos and the rest of Kastoria and Kozani parliament members, as well as officials of the ministries of Development and Foreign Affairs. Your concern on fur is totally opposite to ours. We hope we won't hear again the word 'fur' from your mouths inside the parliament, and that we won't see any of you in any fur-farmers event. We will be very disappointed.

Have a happy new year with lots of empty cages.

May 4, 2008 -- 250 Rats Liberated from University Lab

anonymous communiqu; reported by athens.indymedia:

"ON THE LIBERATION OF LAB RATS IN THESSALONIKI

The world of 'pollution', that has become a field of study for large social parts, is for others an everyday field for direct action for its subversion. Life in capitalism seems to have lost its meaning, everything seems to be predictable, known and dead before they are even realised. Without any measure, everything gains substance and value based only on the profit it produces. The System doesn't hesitate to exploit everything alive for its own reproduction, to turn everything living into a cog of its terrifying machinery. It has no hesitations to pollute the air, the food and the water of its 'subjects' in order to gain profit. Those that claim to govern us, experiment and exploit humans as easily as they do to animals.

IN CAPITALISM NOTHING IS ACCIDENTAL, THEY ALL FIT THE SAME PROJECT OF EXPLOITATION.

Every day that passes, hundreds of animals are butchered inside laboratories. Their lives are turned to one, brief time, study, on an indifferent laboratory ratio, in its best, on an intriguing reaction. Multinational companies (the same ones that drive their employees to hunger) test their products on them. Pharmacy industries and medical teams (the same that are responsible for innumerable deaths of patients) test their studies on them.

Of course, the animals are also used, apart from the evolution of medical methods, for teaching. As a part of the 'holy' plan of education, they form part of the educational procedure within the university. They are not treated as something alive, with an inalienable right to freedom, but as a component of the courses.

Willing to resist somehow the generalised exploitation of earth and the animals, a few days ago we liberated around 250 white rats from the building of the aristotle university that holds the faculties of Biology, Zoology and Pharmacy. Rats, stacked gasping for breath in dirty cages, had never felt the breeze, the only color they had seen was white, and never faced the sunlight...

Thessaloniki 2/5/2008"

January 17, 2008 -- Four Rats Rescued from Laboratory

reported by activists in Greece (click here for video from the action):

"On the 15th of January at TEI University in Thessaloniki, Greece about 15 people interrupted a planned experiment on a living animal. Professor and students as well were tying to hide the fact that any experiments were going on. But pushed by 15 masked people, the professor unlocked the lab and liberators took from it 4 lab rats. After that he was punched and spit on by several people. This is just the beginning."
