		<description>No seriously removing the drawing was uncalled for. Or is it perhaps against the policies of the blog to exchange phone numbers? Otherwise I can’t think of what could had been the problem and since no-one reacted to clarify my questions, I am already second guessing some sort of conspiracy theory to implicate at my inconvenience. Which I’ll spare you the unscripted details, cause you’ll likely not read it anyway, or when you will possibly think it’s crap too, and maybe even censor it anew anyhow. But if you like to hear what I ain’t taking for granted then call the number which you confiscated and instead of a constructive dialogue how to resolve things and move forward from this point on, let’s by all means circumvent to elaborately revisit the past in a private discussion on how come things went wrong here.

		<description>Apropos for a few dreamscapes out loud from the top of my mind, a posteriori. 

Then if you want to incorrigibly persist in limited unrational urban polemics. Acquire clothing &amp; equipment of the opposition and indiscriminately waste a few members of minority faction, any religious figure, or hit at random across any demographic division line, cause that could do the trick too to destabilize the daily order of a city. Only kidding of course. 
No but really what about a few hundred 9 meter long phalanxes? Wouldn´t their puppet plastic toy soldiers drop just like home struck pins on a bowling alley? And mind you in a historically totally responsible manner too. Whether 5-10 kilo burning tar bombs launched from a mobile hydraulic platform? Or no wait I got it, we could print &amp; distribute our own money and warrant immunity &amp; protection to shops who accept our currency, that’s a classic fund raiser. Or what about an immense hemp grow operation to finance a radical paramilitary wing? Release the wild animals from the zoo? Cast voodoo spells on cops and their families? Tear down the Parthenon? Endow a wooden horse to the city? Behead tourists on U-Tube video? Maybe fly hijacked airliners into the Maxim? Then in the ultimate consequence why not commit to a collective mass-suicide, to end all physically ascribe our pertinent emotional disconnection with this world? 
Nah, fuck it .. I suppose, it all has been done before somehow.    

I guess what you need is something more unconventional, more substantial &amp; more charitable. 
Actually come to think of it what you specifically need right now to get you on top of this fucking shit, is A GENUINE MIRACLE of some kind. 

Yep bet’ya that the Wonder Wheel has commenced it’s magic spinning already. 

Good Luck Johnny.

		<description>Ok I admit not one of my most luminous moments. I should have taken into serious consideration that centralization is in anarchistic circles never a preferred approach. And what it concerns inciting a domino effect cross continent. I suppose I was just imagining out of my league once more over, with unfounded arguments making up a practically unprecedented case. Whilst in utter ignorant complacency over the self important pretense to possess a superior degree of tactical judgement, by which I pretentiously presumed the renowned Greek cunningness incapacitated to calculative exploit every realistic opportunity and effectively deal with the immoral fascist tyrants of the maffia state and the false icons of this dreadful world which we swore to bring down. Honestly I must have been straight out of my mind thinking that they are hardly scratched, nor dent, laying down the law harder than ever. What was I thinking, even posting my bid under the self made up pretext of the insurrection being systematically disintegrated asunder?  And I probably missed out to conceive the bigger picture in this seemingly random pattern of petrol bombings, demos, occupations, etc, too. Where I guess my jettison vision failed to perceive how the masterly grand design by the genius leaders of the revolution will ultimately coax the pieces to come together in a final show down to cause the imminent fall of the Greek government apparatus and all it’s state sponsored goons. 

Oh how the human mind can sometimes play paradoxical tricks with our sense of reality especially when it regards the inability to overcome our excelled pride in acknowledging the imbecility of the very facts that conspicuous show for all to see, what we for all the obvious painful reasons are reluctant to concede.  

And they all lived happily forever after on prison planet.

		<description>Sorry guys with every due respect but isn’t the frequency of the updates becoming rather beyond the irregular? Not to bust your chops in a negative way or something, only it’s just that there&#039;s so little available information out there on the current situation in Greece, that we (the Greek illiterates abroad) depend for the domestic news almost totally on your site. Actually it beats me what is precisely transpiring down there and I’m dead curious to learn what the mood is under activists right now in the country?  Are there still tangible signs of disturbance continuing or is the avenge of normality gradually prevailing? 
Well anyway based on the number of solidarity actions in more than 30 countries last Dec.&amp; Jan. I figured from the broad support in European nations for the crisis in Greece, that a considerable number of potentially interested people remains hence like me virtually disconnected &amp; uninformed. So I suppose I am wondering to ask you, with absolutely no personal criticism meant, how come there isn’t a more effective public relations effort in the public domain to facilitate the necessity of a proper European forum, in order to accommodate the interactive communication with the outside world and cover ‘the Greek Riots’, (or however you wanna tag whatever is still ongoing), from the autonomist’s perspective on a regular basis in English?

And the prime reason methinks the acquirement of such an intermedium should be considered, (yet bear to mind that my judgement lacks a proper assessment on what’s happening there at this time), is that at any given point in time a renewed eruption may prompt that manages to penetrate the European mass media curtain yet again timely opening up a keyhole for the eyes of the world to temporally focus upon the issue at home. When it could by all means prove beneficial to have such a mechanism in place, not barely for information purposes but also to provide some central point for coordination in the reception of the likely international solidarity responses, that prefigured by the single precedent, may as well reoccur cross continent. And thus provided all goes accordingly, this sort of anticipation could eventually in the long run deliver a useful tool to perfect this as a modus operandi to jump start an European chain reaction, if you know what I mean. 

I also wrote &amp; published an article to that effect on Indymedia Athens, where it was immediately banned, I suppose due to infringements on their policies curtailing the right to free speech. Maybe in hindsight I shouldn’t have addressed it to; “ya motherfucking fags”, but alas I felt unable to compromise on my artistic integrity, on customary Greek mouth, not to mention, on the factual truth.  LOL</description>

		<description>My friend Ryuko,if you want you can inform people about Nick&#039;s situation,and if you want to send me an email to communicate.
Still,the best thing to do in solidarity,as Zappatistas say,is to keep fighting in your country.</description>

		<description>My friends in Greek have been sending me information of this situation and it has touched me to tears. I hope that things will change in this world. I hope that we all remain united. I hope for a better future. I live in Mexico, tell me what I can do from here, other than repost and send to all of the people that I know, I have never believed in borders, this is one world with man made borders on maps, in reality I see no natural borders other then mountains and oceans. Viva la libertad!!!</description>
