Racist pogroms and fascist attacks in Southern Peloponnese

Posted on August 18, 2013 by dawnofthegreeks

In the southern part of the Greek fascist state, a huge operation against Roma people and its communities has been taking place since many years. Last month (July/beginning of August) in Southern Peloponnese riot police squads that arrived from Athens have been conducting operations against the Roma population across Messinia, Lakonia, Arkadia and Argolida region.

The official police report on the operations talks of the “tackling” and the “prevention” of crime as the reasons why the Roma houses came under attack – an open and direct racist  attack against them. The result of that operation was that several hundreds were detained or arrested. …

A few days later, on Sunday March 31 2013, at the same village (Trapezonti), known-unknown “indignant Greeks’ residents organized a racist gathering and march with the blessings of local neo-Nazi Golden Dawn group, the local council and the Greek police. At the rally held, several speaks in a delirium of hate and based on the concept (Nazi inspired) of collective responsibility, they accused the local Roma communities of the region, for almost every kind of crime. According to the speakers Roma people are responsible for thefts … [they] called them robbers, drug dealers etc.

A few weeks ago a friend of Dawn of the Greeks and owner of the blog against antisemitism have visited the cosmopolitan busy tourist island of Corfu.  According to his report after his visit, he was shocked by the evidence of nazi activities in the island. Below you can find two pictures with nazi souvenirs such as the book of Adolf Hitler in a local store as well as a nazi graffiti which remains in the island for a long time.
