Violent Attacks Erupt In Greece
Sky News
Monday, Dec 08, 2008
Around three-hundred students have battled police and attacked cars and stores in Greece in the latest unrest sparked by the police killing of a 15-year-old boy.
The riots in the Greek city of Salonika follow clashes in which thousands of people demonstrated against police and rampaged through Athens and other cities.
Scores of businesses were destroyed, cars torched and burning barricades were built.
Gangs of self-styled anarchists threw Molotov cocktails, rocks and bottles towards police.
In retaliation the officers created a cloud of tear gas which hung in the air, sending passers by scurrying for cover.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
The uproar in several cities began within hours of the death of a 15-year-old boy shot by police in Exarchia, which is seen as the home base of the anarchists.
Despite the arrest of two police officers for the killing of the teenager, the Greek Communist Party announced plans for a mass rally in central Athens this evening.

wtf has this got to do with bin laden? Unless he’s the teenager that got killed:D

that’s what happens when coppers go bad and the commoners have their own way of justice who are sick and tired of seeing criminals usually walk free.

Just one minute! God help us, but this site is now peddling the same crap as the mainstream press. For ’students’ read Turkish and Pakistani asylum seekers who are annoyed because Greece has stopped processing asylum applications. They are annoyed because those of their ilk who are already legally in Greece have created a burgeoning drug empire and are trying to import more drug mules into Greece. I agree with most of the articles on this site, but this is not another example of the police gone trigger-happy – this was justified. The officers have been arrested solely as an attempt to pour oil on troubled waters, that’s all!

The teen was shot just before he threw a Molotov cocktail at a police car that was already being pelted by bottles and large rocks. These cops were scared, as I would have been, and after firing warning shots (that were ignored) one of the cops shot the guy just before he threw the firebomb. It’s a shame the guy died, but I learned a long time ago not to throw firebombs at police.

You’re way off base, #3 Heimdall:
It’s not justified to kill a 15-year-old boy. Moreover, the “war on drugs” you invoke is proven bullshit! Furthermore, if refugees are fleeing their countries to Greece, you can bet the NWO/globalists had a hand in it!!!

#4 Palin’s Muffin:
“The teen was shot just before he threw a Molotov cocktail at a police car that was already being pelted by bottles and large rocks…” Do you believe everything your read in the mainstream media??? Also, did it ever occur to you that many “agent provocateurs” are embedded in those crowds to further turn Greece into a police state???
December 8th, 2008 at 10:43 am
I agree with rich at #2. To quote the beginning of the Dead Prez song Police State “police become necessary at that junction in society where it’s split between the have and have nots.” Street justice is the way to go but people fear it because it requires responsibility. It is my philosophy that only a bitch needs a third party to handle their business. Police are nothing but a third party thug whether they know or not. If you think police are nice wait till you get taken from your car, told bullshit to make you talk, and can’t even take your hand off the hood of your car to point in the direction of your house without being yelled at. And that’s nice by todays standards. Also, by bitch I do not mean females. I mean people who can’t handle their own and defend their rights.

Actually, #6, I didn’t get the information from corporate media. I got it from my cousin Stavroula, who lives in Athens, who got it from her son, who was in the crowd. He wanted to videotape what was going on for a university class, and got hit in the head by some guy with a stick. He ended up going to the hospital to get stitches.
So, no I didn’t get my info from Fox News. And the “student anarchists” (mixed in with a bunch of drunk blue-collar workers, skinheads and homeless people) were totally out of hand, and the police were outmanned by the hundreds, to the point where they weren’t even trying to stop cars and shops from being set on fire. They were trying to prevent people from being killed and to prevent themsleves from being killed.
December 8th, 2008 at 12:32 pm
So Palin Muffin Eater, are you saying then that the rioting started before the 15 yo boy was shot? It was my understanding that was the incident that started the riots, but your story sounds like riots already started if the boy was shot with hundreds of other “student anarchists” who were fire bombing stuff.
December 8th, 2008 at 1:03 pm
I response to Truth #5, I am a former police officer who left because of the political correctness being foisted upon the police in the UK. I’d witnessed police acting in an unprofessional manner, lying in court, and generally stitching up Joe Public who, by any sane standards, was more often the victim than perpetrator. I don’t know where you live, but if you ever come to the UK and get assaulted don’t defend yourself – it’s not allowed. Just take your beating and if you survive it, report it to the police who will interview you under caution to establish what you did that made a poor criminal want to beat you up! However, just because I hate what’s going on and understand the true aims of the NWO as much as anyone, it doesn’t mean that every police action is wrong. What did you want these officers to do? Get out of the patrol car, dodge the petrol bombs and bricks to establish the youths age? If he’s old enough to get mixed up in this riot then he’s old enough to take the consequences!

#1 GENKI SUDO, ARE YOU THE MMA GENKI SUDO?
December 8th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
fuck the police. seriously. 99.9% of them are brainwashed idiots. they should be locked up and tortured for their crimes
December 8th, 2008 at 6:30 pm
I’m Greek and I understand the what’s going on in Greece. Believe me when I tell you; there is more to this than just some kid getting shot by the Police. The politics right now in Greece are the same as here (the NWO) is behind the Greek Government and the people are sick and tired of what’s going on with the Banks and the Pension Funds and the credit cards….etc, same as here. The shooting was the last straw. The difference is that in Greece, they are tired of bending over. I hope that people here start waking up to what’s going on.
December 8th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
they shoot one teenager dead, then let hundreds of others loot what they want. from what i saw on t.v. the old bill did a runner. the nightmare is just beginning folks.
December 8th, 2008 at 7:55 pm
The article is a sky news article people (rupert murdoch)- it is main stream.
prisonplanet will repost mainstream articles. Link is at top of article.
December 8th, 2008 at 11:43 pm
I live in Athens and I can tell you that what all of you have read from the MSM is total lies. The 15 year old kid was in the wrong place at the wrong time, he did not try to throw a petrol bomb, this is a lie… I can’t believe you guys ate it up so easily. And furthermore, do you really believe that the entire country would revolt because 1 fucking kid got shot?? That event just broke the dam!! Just like in V for Vendetta when the kid gets shot by the cop and then all hell breaks lose! Most people my age get around 600-800 euro/month, even if they have masters degrees, and with inflation making foods more expensive than in Germany you can imagine how pissed off these guys are. This is genocide, the economy is so bad here that it’s impossible to procreate and make a family. You have to live with Mom and Dad until 35 years old just to get by!
Anyway, PLEASE MY FELLOW TRUTHERS, GIVE US SOME SUPPORT ON THIS! WERE GOING HEAD TO HEAD WITH THE NWO HERE. This is NOT our government in power now, they are the ENEMY OF the STATE and WILL FALL!!
December 9th, 2008 at 12:49 am
You got my support bro. I agree, I can’t believe how quickly and willingly these so-called “truthers” eat up MSM propaganda.

To Eating Sarah Palin’s Sweet, Sweet Muffin and her cousin Stavroula:
You’re obviously ill-informed or sheep. I’m Greek and live in Athens.
I dare you to find ONE media channel or newspaper here in Greece that does not unequivocally confirm that:
1) The two cops were cruising in Exarhia when they came under VERBAL assault by 5-6 15year olds.
2) The two cops DROVE AWAY so as to park their cruiser elsewhere.
3) The cops then CAME BACK ON FOOT, found the kids and shot one in cold blood.
YOU, Sarah’s Sweet Bullshit, along with your cousin Stavroula are full of shit and are apologists for the police state here in Greece and anywhere else.
LET’S PUT THESE RIOTS IN CONTEXT:
1) The Greek police have killed 14 citizens in cold blood during the past 19 years. For a small country, this is a systematic police state. A few months ago they beat the living crap out of a Cypriot student in Salonika. Before that they were beating the shit out of refugees. Heads have never rolled and no cops have ever been made an example of.
2) We’re earning 800 euros a month while we have the most expensive basket of goods out of all EU countries.
3) Workers rights and laws that protect them have been stripped away, one by one, in the name of globalization and neoliberalism. Now we work whenever the bossmen want us to work, even if its 60 hours a week this month and 5 hours a week in the springtime. Our pensions have been can, healthcare sucks and other social safety nets are crumbling. The owners of big business are making huge moolah in the meantime.
4) The STATE is SO corrupt, it has agent provocateurs embedded in the anarchists, it pays vandals to burn forests so new villas can be built and it sells public land to mafiosos etc. All these are the latest scandals that have rocked the government.
The youth is unemployed and even when it does find work its at slave wages. Schools here suck, the educational system virtually has no budget and most schools don’t have libraries, sports teams, tracks, computers, nothing much at all beyond a chalkboard and some chalk. The youth also see how the corrupt SYSTEM is screwing them over, taking what they have left of their decent standard of living and giving it to those in power and those with their political connections.
Vatopedio scandal, forest fires scandals, siemens scandal, eavesdropping scandal etc etc.
And YOU, Eating Sarah (and those like you), bleat on about “the police are trying to prevent people from being killed”.
Did you see the footage of riot police beating the shit out of protestors? We’re not talking about beating up vandals. We’re talking about arresting non-violent protestors on the edge of marches. When riot police nab someone from the fringes of the march, they handcuff them and then you see 10-20 fellow cops descend on the helpless victim which they proceed to kick the shit out of, like vultures descending on their food. These cops are ANIMALS and such footage is EXTENSIVE.
On my way to work I was listening to Alpha radio and a reporter, Mr. Kakousis was describing how citizens around him were begging the riot police to stop kicking the shit out of some teenager. For TEN MINUTES the citizens and the reporter were screaming at and begging the police to stop their animalistic behaviour.
THAT’S the Greek state for you and I dare say it is the same wherever the fuck you live in, Eating Sarah.
Fucking moron.
December 9th, 2008 at 3:31 am
One more comment, just so everybody knows:
Yes, numerous shops have been vandalized during these three days of rioting. However, the bulk of the attacks have been on:
1) Police stations
2) Politicians’ offices
3) Banks
4) Multinational corporations (McDonalds, Vodafone etc)
5) Government ministries, buildings and offices
And for those like Eating Sarah’s Turds who talk about the poor shopowners and how the poor police must protect the public:
1) Those you call “anarchists” are in fact nothing of the sort, they are agent provocateurs of the state and they are also drug addicts and losers that are on the police payroll as informants, provocateurs etc.
2) While I feel sorry for the little old man and his burnt variety store, it is the exception. The bulk of stores vandalized are either corporations or stores like those in Kolonaki that buy a shirt for 10 euros and sell it to us for 150.
Fuck them. Besides, they’ll get their damages paid by their insurance companies who have them covered to the hilt.
Oh, the owner’s Mercedes SLK 500 got burnt. Boo hoo, my heart bleeds.
BTW, where was your cousin Stavroula when the cops would beat the crap out of refugees and minorities on a daily basis? Was she screaming for “protecting the people” all this time?
Thought not. Assholes.
December 9th, 2008 at 5:13 am
Not only agent provocateurs take part in this kind of actions. A lot of self-proclaimed anarchists take part in these kind of fascist actions (that in nothing, by the contrary, help solving anything) where everyone who is part of the group that the person who commited the crime belongs to deserves to be assaulted. (To them: This is not civil war. The police is not coming to your house if you don’t attack them.)
By the way, I think everyone is interested to know this, the 2005 riots in France, were instigated by Sarkozy himself to try to create a negative public opinion about the arab community.

I wonder what the greek people think of these anarchists.
December 9th, 2008 at 9:44 am
To CRYBABY Aris: I stand by the facts in my story. Police beat the shit out of people all the time. They also help people all the time. Because they’re also people and they get happy, scared, afraid they won’t have a job, get guilt-ridden, just like the rest of us. There’s no school they go to where their brains are removed and replaced by a software program. The NWO is alive and well and working to oppress us, but if you think every cop is in on the scam and has already been guaranteed a luxury apartment after the rest of us are exterminated then maybe you DO need a few doses of flouride to get your seratonin back in line, because you aren’t getting enough.
I’m no apologist, and my cousin and her son are no liars. There were people throwing rocks and firebombs, and even a cursory look at youtube turns up plenty of examples that this happened, is happening and will happen tomorrow.
Let me get this straight Aris: So when the sheeple in your country get angry at the government they set the McDonald’s and cell phone stores on fire? Wow, that’s brilliant. I’m sure those Vodaphone store employees double for Darth Vader in their spare time. Or more likely there just people trying to make a living in your shitty economy. Only now they’re also out of a job because assholes like you torched the store. Did you steal some stereo equipment and LCD flatscreen TVs while you were at it? That would be typical riot behavior just like we have here in the States.
Cops aren’t all evil, and all firebomb-throwing meth-heads aren’t saviors in disguise. And as for why the cops were occasionally beating the crap out of refugees, they did that because some of them are racists, not because they’re cops. Anti-immigrant sentiment has been on the rise in your country for a long time, and Greek ultranationalists have been beating up Russian and Eastern European immigrants on occasion for a while now, but you don’t mention that. So your country sucks, and now you’ve found some people to beat up over it. Someone else did something similar to the Jews in the 1930s.

Eating Sarah Palin’s Turds,
The “facts”? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
The facts are that the killer cop’s ego was bruised by a 15 year old that taunted him. According to all media channel’s here in Greece who have the transcripts from the police dispatch office, he was given orders to leave the scene and go to another incident at Alexandras. He ignored his orders and instead drove back to the precinct, parked his cruiser, walked down the street, searched for and found the youth and shot him in cold blood. He even admitted he went back to “fuck” him.
Only fascist apologists like you spew such bullshit like you just did.
Fact of the matter is, cops here have murdered 14 youths in 19 years and the system leaves them unpunished.
Fact of the matter is that THERE IS VIDEO OF THE COP WALKING DOWN THE STREET and whaddaya know, there were no firebombs.
In othert words, even all the MSM here are directly calling the cop a liar, seeing the video, and all channels report like so:
ALPHA channel: STATE REPRESSION IS EXHIBITED BY RAMBO (the nickname the tv stations have given this cop)
ANT1 channel: THE FUTURE OF A YOUTH WAS DENIED BY A UNIFORMED OFFICER WHO EXECUTED HIM.
Did you get that, Eating Sarah’s Turds?
MSM is directly saying what all witnesses on the scene and what the video stills are saying, THE COP WALKED BACK AND EXECUTED A 15y.o. THAT HAD THROWN NOTHING AT HIM, NEVERMIND THREATEN THE COP.
So, all channels are saying that the cop had absolutely no reason to disobey his orders from dispatch, much less take his weapon out, much less shoot the kid in cold blood.
So you’re obviously talking out of your ass. Both you, your cousin Stavroula and the few fascists that are calling for the state to impose order.
And ya know what? Yeah, when the state fucks us over and cuts our pensions, our wages, our workhours, educational budgets etc while at the same time it is so corrupt and full of scandals where they’ve giving away our billions to their friends, we’re not fucking little sheep like you and the youth in your country that sits there and takes it up the ass.
And it’s funny that you mentioned the ultranationalists cause they, as always, are the ones that are fighting on the side of riot police who go and beat the shit out of refugees.
You say you’re no apologist HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You, my stupid friend, are mouthing EXACTLY what the conservative govt here is saying, “oh the poor merchants, oh the poor workers from the stores, don’t look at the scandals, look at the broken windows, don’t look at the billions of your money we’re given to the bankers, look at the anarchists.”
The Greek govt WANTS you to focus on damaged stores, it WANTS you to beg it to defend you from vandals. It does NOT want you to talk about the reasons WHY everyone is up in arms. We saw on tv here yesterday where old people from cafes got out and tried to stop riot police and their brutal behaviour. They were even clapping at them sarcastically while shouting to the police, “exo exo”. Men in suits, women in heels, old men, they were taking on the cops.
Did you ever stop to think WHY the government did nothing all these days and let the riots continue without stopping them? So things could get out of hand and then little idiotic sheep like you would go running to it, begging the state and its system of repression to “save” your little store and keep you “safe”.
Talking heads, news anchors etc all say this on prime time tv but here we have you talking out of your ass.
A question, and it’s not just mine but reporters’ and citizens’ as well: how come when the cops catch these “hooded youths”, they never yank off their hoods there and then? How come they’re always set free? How come we have pictures in the news of “hooded youths” WITHIN the riot police platoons?
Could it be because they’re part of the “parakratos”?
Have you ever heard of the phrases “gnostoi agnostoi” and “parakratos”? At least your cousin Stavroula, if she’s indeed from here, would certainly know them. The rest of Greece certainly knows them and it’s a huge issue. It’s been a huge issue for decades now.
You obviously know jack shit, are a stupid ignorant little sheep and a BOOTLICKER who fashions himself enlightened about the NWO.
In short, you’re a stupid, ignorant American. Go back to your xBox and enjoy your life in police state America, fascist America. At least us Greeks can tell when the system represses us and our history is full of resistance to overthrow repressive governments.
YOU sit there and take it up the ass, thank them for screwing you, and then come tell us about firebombs and storefronts.
Fucking idiot. No wonder the US has gone to hell in a handbasket. Just like the UK where the state murdered Menendez in cold blood and no one batted an eye.
Our “economy is shitty and now a few workers are out of a job” for a few days. What a moron you are. WHY is the economy shitty to begin with you dumb fuck? Like yours is better? It’s worse you stupid fuck. America is now poorer than any other country in case you hadn’t noticed.
Malakistiri, e malakistiri. Gamietai i mana sou re.

Eating Sarah’s Turd, you said,
“So when the sheeple in your country get angry at the government they set the McDonald’s and cell phone stores on fire? Wow, that’s brilliant. I’m sure those Vodaphone store employees double for Darth Vader in their spare time. Or more likely there just people trying to make a living in your shitty economy.”
You’re obviously too stupid to have notice that for the past 5 days, the vast majority of demonstrations and attacks are on:
1) POLIC STATIONS (they even rammed one with a truck in flames)
2) MINISTRIES
3) POLITICIANS’ OFFICES
4) BANKS
5) MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS
6) GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS
Yet here we have you, repeating the govt propaganda that only focuses on the broken store window.
You neatly sidestep the fact that the vast majority of attacks have been ON THE POLICE ITSELF, THE GOVERNMENT AND ITS MINISTRIES.
Did I say you’re a fucking moron?
A BRAINWASHED LITTLE MINION IS WHAT YOU ARE.
“So when the sheeple in your country get angry at the government they set the McDonald’s and cell phone stores on fire” HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
What a FUCKING LITTLE BRAINWASHED SHEEP YOU ARE.
The system tells you “move along, nothing but vandalized stores to see here”
and you nod your head, satisfied that that is indeed what is actually happening.
Seems you missed all those precincts, ministries and banks that were lynched, torched or stormed.
Do us a favor, don’t identify yourself with us who are actually fighting the system. Morons like you discredit our struggle cause your an APOLOGIST FOR THE STATE, A BRAINWASHED BOOTLICKER.
