Why this is important
80 years after the rise of Hitler, Greece is slowly slipping into the grip of Nazism – first time ever a neo-nazi party gains 18 seats in the Parliament, immigrants are chased and stabbed, leftists and gays are being beaten by attack squads with the complicity of the police and under the tolerance of the government. Their leader openly boasts that “If need be, we get our hands dirty. If need be we are not democratic. For the sake of our country because above everything is our country; not institution not anything else “. All these activities are dangerously multiplying by the day. Thus, we need your help convincing our Courts and the EU to take action.
We are calling for a judicial investigation into the workings of Golden Dawn. Their activities are racist, anti-democratic and illegal, their speech is spreading hate and they are no match for a parliamentary party; their leader has been jailed for extreme-rightwing terrorism in the 70s and 2 MPs have trials pending for crimes as serious as stabbing while the party’s spokesperson attacked a communist MP on national TV.
Their fascist activity continues and is escalating under the tolerance of the Greek government and the EU. Every day there are allegations and reports in the media of hate crimes against immigrants that are never investigated; intimidation and hate speech are an everyday reality for us. We need their actions investigated.

80 χρόνια μετά την άνοδο του Χίτλερ, η Ελλάδα παρασυρεται στην δίνη του ναζισμού – πρώτη φορά ένα νεο-ναζιστικό κόμμα κερδίζει 18 έδρες στην Βουλή, μετανάστες καταδιώκονται και μαχαιρώνονται στον δρόμο, αριστεροί και ομοφυλόφιλοι ξυλοκοπούνται από τάγματα εφόδου με την συνενοχή της αστυνομίας και την ανοχή της κυβέρνησης
