KEERFA MOVEMENT UNITED AGAINST RACISM AND FASCIST THREAT
Meeting point: Gr. Lambraki and Chr. Smyrnis
(Proodeftiki stadium)March towards the Courts in Korydallos Prison
TAKE THE BUSSES: PLATEIA AMERIKIS 7.00AM, OMONOIA 7AM
The mobilization on the first day of the trial of the Nazi Golden Dawn imposed the beginning of the trial and its continuation on May 7. Thousands of workers took part in the strike of ADEDY and other unions, the residents of Korydallos, students, people with disabilities, artists, trade unionists of PAME, activists of SYRIZA and ANTARSYA made a strong presence to the call of the anti-fascist movement.
The Nazis of Golden Dawn showed again their real face with bullying against witnesses in the trial, friends of Paul Fyssas family.
The Police got its hands full pressing against the anti-fascist rally and gave cover to the swoop by the few Nazi from a point where they protected them. They didn’t arrest anybody!
The court began by reading the list of witnesses of the prosecution in an area which does not ensure the conditions of the trial, with open access for the public and full publicity. The Police is the one that determined the entrance! The request for the trial to move to the Athens Appeal Court was heard by lawyers of civil action and the mayor of Korydallos.
It is scandalous that the Minister of Education Kourakis, who promised that he would appear at the trial to request the transfer due among other reasons also due to the national exams, now he arranges the transportation of six hundred students of the third class of Lyceum from the physical space of their school to other schools in areas of Keratsini and Perama! He moves hundreds of students rather than he along with Justice Minister Paraskevopoulos to assume their responsibilities and to transfer the trial to the Court of Appeal.
The leaders of the Nazis boycotted the trial, both Michaloliakos and most MPs. The brave words that they will give battle to topple the alleged conspiracy, evaporated and they returned to their permanent tactic, trying to separate their responsibilities from the lower "foot soldiers" of their paramilitary strormtroopers mechanism.
They are Nazi murderers and not just hothead criminals!
No one should be fooled by this tactic. It goes hand in hand with trying to appear as "legal party" and they even offer support to the government of SYRIZA as an "anti-memorandum force"! The Nazism of Golden Dawn is the motivation behind every crime committed by the kinds of Roupakias. They cannot exist without racist and fascist attacks against trade unionists, immigrants, Roma, homosexuals, people with disabilities. Nazism is not mutating. Instead, we should fend off efforts for them to be rescued because supposedly they mutate into a normal parliamentary party.
With the power of strikes and rallies we will win!
There can be no complacency assigning to justice a carte blanche for the trial! Such supposedly neutral stance leaves the ground for the Nazis to terrorize the witnesses and enforce their own terms at the trial.
The mobilization of ADEDY was catalytic in the first day of the trial and so it isolated further the fascists and their parrots in the media.
On May 7 the right will be judged for a full presence in the trial of the lawyers of civil action, who defend the victims of the murderous attacks of the Golden Dawn. We ask the voice of the anti-fascist movement to be heard on the accusation for the establishment of the Nazi criminal organization.
The united anti-fascist movement needs to continue the battle to avert a soft landing for the Nazi murderers of the Golden Dawn and for the trial to proceed at the Athens Court of Appeal. With the same momentum, on May 7 we escalate!
We will not allow witnesses to pass through the terror of the bulgy thugs of the Nazi organization and be attacked. With our presence we need to impose that the trial will be a condemnation of the Nazis.
Everyone on May 7th at 8am at the Proodeftiki stadium and march to the Korydallos prison.
Not one should be absent!
