Day of Action at the Olympic Games

OLYMPIC GAMES:

A profitable parade of doped machines, with enormous profits for bosses and multinationals. An international spectacular fiesta, which disorientates society from vindications and struggles.

ATHENS 2004, BEFORE THE OLYMPIC GAMES OF ATHENS:

1) Under the regime of the worldwide “antiterrorist” crusade, the State tightens its measures in order to oppress and impose discipline upon society with the help of propaganda by the Media of Mass Deceit, “antiterrorist” laws, prosecutions, surveillance cameras, informers, neighborhood cops, “red zones” in various areas, internal and foreign secret services and NATO armed forces.

2) Destroys and commercializes the last green and free spaces that are left in the basin of Athens. Besides, mass murders of street animals take place.

3)  Changes labor relations at the expense of working people, with the suspicious consensus of beaurrocratic syndicates. At the same time, exploitation is reaching its peak resulting to more and more deaths and mutilations caused by “accidents” and “negligence”.

4)   Thanks to cops and oppression, in August will be a city empty of its “parasites” (immigrants, junkies, homeless’ and every sort of “marginalized” groups). Prosecutions have already taken place, starting from gypsies, residents of refugee settlements, etc.

5)  Through the promotion of volunteerism, the State tries to create partners in crime and to present a false and distorted image of social consensus.

Actions against the Olympic games take place in Athens and other cities in Greece. Despite of all that, we believe that these actions must be strengthened and coordinated. So, we call to all comrades to participate in the Action Day against the Olympic games on June the 19th, and their destructive effects, by organizing manifestations, occupations, interventions and further more, in their cities inside and outside of Greece, in one major dynamic movement.

are the olypics thaaat bad. I'msure itcan also beseen as a festival of somesort which does bringpeople together ....probably not people like usbut still PEOPLE. Plus I'm sure money goes eventowards building infratsructure such as roads etc whichare used by everyone. Ofcourse a lot of money goes towards posh things maybe but its not really tax money...is it.

Do we have to FASCISTS in our ways to an extent that we killor destroy all other formsof existence. Not everyone wants to live a totalunderground lifestyle and go only to raves,benefits and so on and so forth. This does not mean that other COMMERCIAL things such as olympics or whatever else should be banned. Next what........should all people who do not listen to techno ordrumn bass be killed??????

I wouldsayleave the olympicsaloneandlets concentrate on better things like may bestopping the war in iraq, Palestine andso on.

I'm getting sick of people leaving comments under other people's posts saying you should be stopping the war/s instead of bothering with your campaign!!

Local issues are important and over there the olympics are a pretty big local issue...
