Second Week Of Uprising In Greece

"On Tuesday morning, the Athens headquarters of Greece's riot police was targeted in a brief arson attack by a group of youths throwing firebombs and stones, damaging a number of cars before fleeing, a police source said.

Another attack on police occurred at a Thessaloniki courthouse, where eight officers charged with beating a Cypriot student on the sidelines of a 2006 demonstration were convicted but set free pending an appeals trial." (source)

"Universities and 400 high schools are occupied by student activists as a leaked police report revealed official fears that the current crisis will fuel a recruitment drive for Greece's anarchist movement." (source)

New statements have been issued by the Occupation of the Law School (here) and the Liberated City Hall of Aghios Dimitrios (here). Demonstrators also forced their way into Greece's state television news studio on Tuesday to interrupt a broadcast featuring the Prime Minister and unfurl banners reading "Stop watching, get out onto the streets," and "Free everyone who has been arrested" (video here).

There is a continually-updated list of international solidarity actions available here. On the subject of solidarity, the Center for Strategic Anarchy had this to say:"If momentum is to be maintained, it is vital that the tone of solidarity actions be militant. Peacefully protesting outside of consulates and hanging banners on buildings are nice showings of symbolic support, but direct action will do far more to build on the momentum that has been created by our brave Greek peers. Remember: solidarity means attack." (source)
