Anarchists Attack Greek Police Over "Neo-Fascist" Gathering


Several foreign press agencies reported on the events in Athens on Saturday. Seems that about a hundred or so Golden Dawn followers had a brief get together in the Exarchia neighborhood surrounding the famous Polytechnic University to protest the outrageous Greek Government ban on their right to hold a festival, and the violence towards the police , as well , as towards Greek people and Greek shops came not from Golden Dawn but from the ubiquitous Anarchists in Athens. Their numbers are deceiving , this BBC report claims that only about 150 Golden Dawners were there, and this AP report claims that about 100 Anarchist militants caused all the havoc:

ATHENS, Greece (AP) - Greek police fired tear gas to disperse a group of some 100 anarchists who rampaged in central Athens on Saturday, throwing firebombs and rocks that damaged one shop and five parked cars, authorities said.

Why call them anarchists when 'Neocon youth' is more accurate?
