From: Barry Stoller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [R-G] Greek communists oppose WWIII Macedonia Press Agency. 8 October 2001. Opposite reactions by the Left and the Right wing. Excerpts. The Greek people was called to rise up against this unfair war, which is using terrorism as a pretext, and is being waged against the entire planet on Mega television station last night, by Mr. Makis Mailis, member of the Greek Communist Party Central Committee. He continued to say that Greece has no place in this unfair war, and that it should not offer any accommodations, especially when it might be targeted for retaliation, he added. He also underlined that the US attack would have taken place even without the attack on the Twin Towers, because it is part of US plans to control the oil routes and establishing nuclear bases in Afghanistan. The US strike on Afghanistan was also condemned by the Coalition of the Left in an announcement it made, stressing amongst other things that the US and their allies chose the recycling of fear and bloodshed in answer to the September 11 strike. The whole announcement is as follows: "The US and their allies moved to the choice of violence of war in Afghanistan in 'answer' to the violence of the terrorist strike in New York, under the title of 'Endless Peace' they chose the recycling of terror and bloodshed." "The Coalition along with all peace loving powers of the world, raises its voice in protest, and condemns war. " "War is not the solution to our problems. The blood of the innocent victims of New York cannot be washed away by the blood of the innocents in Afghanistan." An anti-war rally has been organized for tonight at 7 pm by the statue of Eleftherios Venizelos, by the Anti-war Committee of Thessaloniki and the Youth Action for Peace. In an announcement they made, they asked for the bombings to stop in Afghanistan and for no involvement of Greece in any limitation of democratic liberties and rights. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
