Greece: Revolutionary Prisoners Welcome the Liberation of George Abdallah

Following the release of Georges Abdallah and his arrival in Lebanon on July 25, several revolutionary prisoners held in Greece welcomed this announcement, which comes after more than 40 years of imprisonment in France. Anarchist prisoner Nikos Maziotis (left in the photo) wrote a statement on August 2 to celebrate the news.

[…] “Your release from prison is one of the greatest pieces of good news and has enormous meaning for all of us who are part of the international anti-capitalist, anti-state and anti-authoritarian movement. Because good news for one is good news for everyone, it is good for the movements, the peoples in struggle, the poor, the proletariat and the activists incarcerated in prisons, as is of course the opposite for bad news. And the fact that you came out of prison unshakeable, without any questioning of your struggle, is a huge political and moral victory for all of us. »

Similarly, former member of the November 17 Revolutionary Organization and Marxist prisoner Dimitris Koufontinas sent a message after the announcement of the Arab communist’s release.

[…] “Today is a day of immense joy. The beautiful news of your liberation has passed through our cells. I will not speak of liberation. You have always been free of mind, soul, heart, as are those who resist. Only now have they been forced to free your body, to join your brothers in the struggle for a standing Lebanon, and a liberated Palestine. The arch-terrorists, the murderers, the colonialists, the arch-despoilers of the peoples have not succeeded in slandering you by calling you a terrorist or a criminal. Your only crime was to be and always to be a revolutionary, not to have yielded, not to have deserted for a single moment your great responsibility. »

A Brief Greeting from Dimitris Koufontinas

A brief greeting from Dimitris Koufontinas from the special prison of Domokos, for the presentation of his book “The Revolutionary Organization November 17. 13 Answers from Prison” in Milan [Occupied Bakery, 17/04/2025]

I am very happy that today I find myself with my mind together with you in Milan, for the presentation of the book “13 answers”, translated by comrade Leonidas.

This year coincides with the 50th anniversary of the first armed action of the November 17 Revolutionary Organization, in December 1975 against the head of the CIA in Greece. This is a further reason for a broader discussion, with the distance of time, for the armed counter-violence movement in our countries and around the world.

In this little book there is no simple account of the facts of the Greek version of this movement. If we want to get closer to the truth, we cannot isolate it from its historical roots, we cannot exclude it from the totality of the historical process, from the path of social evolution, from the international conjuncture and from the geostrategy of the movement throughout the world.

17N always considered itself as part of the current of resistance that runs through the history of our earth, and as part of the broader current of the resistance of peoples. The answers it gave as well as its evolutionary path are similar to the answers that have been given in other lands and to the evolutionary path of other movements in other countries.

In my opinion, in addition to the warning that the weak can make the powerful tremble, the most important contribution of the 17N was its adherence to ideological warfare, in the attempt to interpret reality by the socially active, in the face of the dominant lie and its organized reproduction. In an attempt not to rewrite history.

The edition of this book, as well as today’s debate, are part of this ongoing ideological struggle, as an attempt to be useful to those who seek their own paths to social liberation.

Auszug aus dem Buch: Geboren am 17. November von #DimitrisKoufontinas, siehe Foto im Anhang.

Hintergrund ist der Ausverkauf Griechenlands in den 1990ern. Aus dem Grund wurden auch Anschläge gegen deutsche Unternehmen vom #17N durchgeführt. Der 17N war eine linke bewaffnete revolutionare Gruppe in Griechenland
