A-Infos (en) Greece, vogliamo tutto: We want everything and for everyone -- anarchist collectivity [machine translation]

Struggle against nationalism, intolerance and war ... against states, bosses and their 
mechanisms ---- Solidarity with the entire deniers of the army tried in the Ruf's Military 
Court ---- Within the next period, four total deniers of conscription are being tried for 
their choice not to be in the ranks of the Greek army. Konstantinos Gounitsiotis, Stratos 
Moses, Pavlos Christopoulos and Babis Tsilianidis are being tried on Feb. 6 and 18 and on 
13/3 on Rouf's army. ---- The total deniers of the army went into practice of 
insubordination, driven by political motives against the army, an institution that always 
served and secured the interests of the bosses and their respective powers, against the 
interests of the exploited and oppressed of this society. Against an institution which, in 
the interior, contributes to the cronyism of the ideals of the nation-state, to the 
insinuation of nationalistic hatred, to the expansion of militarism in the social field, 
and which is always in the reserve for suppressing class and social demands, for the 
repression of social uprisings . Against a mechanism that abroad actively contributes to 
the destruction of areas of the capitalist region with the aim of looting natural 
resources and exploiting the local populations as the powerful states of the world are in 
the best of interest. A mechanism that has in the past exterminated foreign and aliens' 
populations to widen state sovereignty and serve the interests of capital.

For this denial, the total deniers of the armed forces are punished with a double and 
especially revenge mechanism of repression. In addition to criminal prosecutions and 
military courts, often repeated as the "crime" of denial of office is permanent, they are 
accepted and hardened by the imposition of fines of 6,000 euros (and in many cases 
repeated). The seizures of accounts and other assets and the state of economic asphyxia 
that they create are consequential. There is also a lack of pressures by phone calls for 
receipt of classification papers, solicitations by military recruits to "settle" military 
obligations, telephone calls at workplaces, or even cops visits to comrades' homes and 
self-capturing arrests.

We are in a period when nationalism, intolerance, racism and fascism have been revived in 
society. The cause was the Macedonian issue and the rallies that took place all over 
Greece and gave the opportunity to all kinds of warlike, conservative, nationalistic and 
fascist groups to come out of the margins and to claim public space. Within this treaty, 
the left-wing government is attempting to present the Prespa agreement " as a model for 
peaceful resolution of disputes and promoting peace in the region ". But we are well aware 
that the Prespa agreement is a dictated agreement to achieve the enlargement of the EU and 
NATO and to strengthen its position in the Balkans towards Russia. The EU and NATO are two 
supranational mechanisms of economic and military enforcement. Greece, as a member of 
these two mechanisms (with any political manager, whether in the right or left), is 
involved in their planning and pursuits, has linked its interests with those of the 
Western bloc and takes an active part in the antagonisms with other blocks power. At the 
same time that it hastened to facilitate the expansion of the alliance, it transforms the 
site into a large NATO and American base camp.In this direction it strengthens the 
existing US-NATO military bases (Souda, Araxos) or installs new ones. Alexandroupolis 
converted into port for NATO troops are in the Balkans, while in Larissa from May 2018 has 
been transferred to a unit of unmanned aircraft (type «MQ -9 Reaper» ) of US military 
forces . At the same time, the Greek state signs an agreement with Turkey on the 
prevention of immigration and repatriation, while FRONTEX frigates continue to hunt 
migrants at the sea border and in collaboration with the Navy to turn the Aegean into an 
immense cemetery.

Defining the situation with regard to the "Macedonian issue" is the pursuit of both the 
Greek capital for further expansion to the neighboring country and the Greek state for the 
protection and promotion of its economic interests and the hegemony in the wider Balkan 
region but also the South-East Mediterranean. The entire rhetoric of the ruling Left is on 
the restoration of the Greek state as a dominant force in the Balkans, its restoration to 
the local-international order of things in the southeastern Mediterranean, as a player 
again after the "adventure" of the memorandums. The left-wing government openly states 
that Turkey recognizes Turkey as a foe and a threat at stake this time, the profits from 
the exploitation of the hydrocarbons of the EEZs of Cyprus and the south-eastern 
Mediterranean in general. Allied military junctions and apartheid states (Egypt-Israel) 
are therefore concluded at the altar, and declarations of readiness are made to undertake 
any military action to defend the profits of the powerful. Gains for the capital AND 
military spending, economic exploitation and war for the exploited. And all this while the 
attack on the exploited and oppressed parts of society continues, completing and 
consolidating the policies of the last few years. of the national interest, military 
alliances with junts and apartheid states (Egypt-Israel) are concluded, and declarations 
of readiness are made to undertake any military action to defend the profits of the 
powerful. Gains for the capital AND military spending, economic exploitation and war for 
the exploited. And all this while the attack on the exploited and oppressed parts of 
society continues, completing and consolidating the policies of the last few years. of the 
national interest, military alliances with junts and apartheid states (Egypt-Israel) are 
concluded, and declarations of readiness are made to undertake any military action to 
defend the profits of the powerful. Gains for the capital AND military spending, economic 
exploitation and war for the exploited. And all this while the attack on the exploited and 
oppressed parts of society continues, completing and consolidating the policies of the 
last few years.

During this juncture of nationalist excitement and with the drums of war, the whole 
deniers of the army echo their opposition to their states and armies and refuse to serve 
their oppressors. Therefore they can only find us solidarity.

We are not prepared to follow state and bourgeois voices for national unity and for 
submission and involvement in its murderous mechanisms. We are well aware of our class and 
social position to join with our exploiters and oppressors. We will not serve state and 
boss plans.

Against the massacre among the oppressed and exploited who happened to be born on the 
other side of the border, oppose the common struggle against homelands, religions, states, 
and all fictional divisions. The only war in which we are prepared to participate is 
against oppression and exploitation, to overthrow state and capitalist barbarism.

To set up mounds against nationalism, fascism, intolerance and war.

To fight for a world without frontiers, states and wars. Without patriarchy and power.

To fight for social revolution and social liberation, for anarchy and communism.
