Giannis Pretenderis – Dark Nights

Athens, Greece: Bomb containing 5 sticks of dynamite found outside home of media scum journalist Giannis Pretenteris

Posted on 2025/07/15 - 2025/07/16 by darknights

An explosive device found in the garden of the one-storey home of well known scum journalist personality Giannis Pretenteris, in the suburb of Neo Psychiko, northern Athens. The device consisted of five dynamite sticks and a timer and it was wrapped in a plastic bag. It is assumed that the perpetrators threw the device over the wall, possibly during the night, but for unknown reasons it did not go off. There was no warning and so far no claim.

Giannis Pretenteris is a typical ‘talking head’ journalist of the newspaper ‘To Vima’ and appears mostly on the disgusting spectacle that is MEGA TV news channel as a contributor to discussions of political content. He is no friend of anarchists speaking out against them, slandering them constantly as terrorists and has done his upmost to defend Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ New Democracy right wing governement. The reason he’s a scumbag has been explained in a previous attack by Direct Action Cells.

“Lies were told that even they themselves were ashamed, since they were not ashamed of the mouths that told them.”

All these days I have been watching the vile and unsubstantiated ridiculousness from the media slugs.

At first I thought that because of their low intelligence, I thought that these people could not put the facts in the right order. But now I now realize that some higher ups in the system are using them to shape-distort the truth and facts. It is a very dangerous and standard tactic used by the government media to mislead the public and impose their political agenda. Without of course in any way comparing cases, it is the same people who dare to slander the relatives of the victims of Tempi and cover up the case. It’s us they think we’re easy targets they’ll stick to; but are we?

To set the record straight.

I have nothing to do with this particular case no matter how much the police and media may have a burning desire to implicate me, and whatever they may try to “cook up” in the future.
I will simply report some of their lies to expose their game.

The media keeps saying that during my previous arrest, Snizana was carrying a bag of weapons on my behalf. The truth is that she was acquitted in court as it was proven that she never carried any backpack with weapons.
The media tells about the close relationship I had with Snizana, the visits I made with her in prison and our daily communication. The truth is that both the visits and the telephone communications are recorded, which means that once again they are proven to be lying as there is none of the above.
The media these days are saying and falsely photographing me that I have taken responsibility and sent e-mails, while the truth is that another person has taken responsibility, has already given a statement to the police (Greek FBI) about the incident and has been called to testify to the relevant investigator next week. NOT ME as the media would like.

Now it’s time for me to speak up!

Listen. Pretenderis, Chasapopoule, Panou, Iliou and telecops Balaska and Kaliakmanis. You are pawns and beggars of the euro. You are hunters of one minute of publicity, you are just minions. Know that your bosses may go around with a bunch of puffed up people and eat with golden spoons, throwing you a dry spoon, but at the end of the day you are always alone and expendable. No matter how many labels you put on me, no matter how many catchy nicknames you give me, no matter how many lies and inaccuracies you serve up to the world. You are exposed.

The time for people to believe you is over. The absolution has come to an end.

Someone used to say that whoever sets out to seek revenge must dig two graves. You think you’ve dug mine, but have you dug yours? Or do you think my life is over in prison?

Greece: A few words about the ‘witch hunt’ of the Counterterrorism by anarchist comrade Fotis Tziotizis

Posted on 2024/03/05 - 2024/03/05 by darknights

I no longer cease to be amazed and wonder what the police and journalists come up with for cases that disrupt their peace. I have seen and read a lot these days about the alleged major operation of the DAEEV (Directorate for Dealing with Special Violent Crimes ΔΑΕΕΒ, Anti Terrorist) and the dismantling of a dangerous terrorist organization.

Vile absurdities were uttered, scenarios of science fiction. They even went so far as to talk about payments between those involved in order to create the narrative of organized crime and dangerous individuals. False information was published concerning the 6 detainees, using previous conversations from people who had absolutely no connection with each other, thus creating an atmosphere of confusion and misdirection.

I have been portrayed as an obsessive, dangerous person who teeters between two worlds: the political and the criminal, as they call it, with the sole objective of seeking revenge against the prosecuting authorities. What I want to say to all the Pretenderis and Evangelatos of this world is that, besides being ridiculous, you are also foolish because you are trying to convince the world of the profile of a person that serves you and at the same time how well your government, which has been feeding you all these years, is doing its job. You are the very same garbage that covers up state murders like in Tempi and you try to shield all the responsible friends of yours and primarily the then Minister Karamanlis with every ridiculous means available. You didn’t care for even a second about the children who were murdered because of you, and provocatively you shift the blame right and left, while we all know about the friendly appointments without a public examination authority, the bribery in Serres, and so on. The henchmen of your then Minister. We all remember the minister saying that it is a shame to talk about security issues on the railway, and 8 days later we become witnesses to capitalist-state crime in Tempi.

You are the same ones who remain silent when the police evict poor people from their homes for debts to your bosses, the bankers. You are the same ones who dine with golden spoons next to the real mafia of this country – politicians and businessmen – laughing at the suffering of the oppressed.

Therefore, I am happy and content that I don’t resemble you in the slightest. I have learned to look the world in the eye and not deceive them, to care for people and take a stance on whatever happens. I am proud to have grown up with values that you don’t even know.

I may be a captive in your prisons, but my soul and mind are and will remain free. So continue your witch hunt, create scenarios that serve you, and label whatever and however you want.

You were born cowards, and you will live as thugs.

‘I want to go on my way,

bypassing the hesitant

and the slow-walkers’

P.S: The above text is just a few words about the restoration of truth and a critique of the current condition. I will provide a more detailed explanation once I am called for the interrogative procedure and have the indictment in my hands.

Athens, Greece: Responsibility claim for the Incendiary Attack on the House of Babis Papadimitriou by Direct Action Cells

Posted on 2022/07/22 by darknights

The Direct Action Cells take responsibility for the attack with an incendiary device at the house of the MP of the New Democracy and journalist of SKAI, Babis Papadimitriou, in Metz in the morning of 6/7. Wanting to honour the real freedom of speech that is persecuted and silenced in the Western countries, we gave the name of Julian Assange to the cell that carried out the action. So that we can recall what it really means to silence freedom of speech with persecution, prisons, courts, when a journalist exposes the war crimes and massacres committed by capitalism.

Babis Papadimitriou belongs to this category of SKAI journalists who redeemed the worm work he did for so many years with a parliamentary seat in New Democracy. The Anglo-Saxon model followed by the SKAI television group in defending New Democracy, as Portosalte had said, has another parameter. The function of SKAI as a political reservoir for future executives and MPs of the New Democracy.

We have mentioned the illusion of security offered by the arrogance of a dominant position of a political official or a big journalist. So now Babis Papadimitriou has crawled out of his house in front of the television cameras to protest against the state’s inability to stop terrorists.

A TV puppet with a consciously argumentative speech, whose persona has been skilfully manipulated over the years by the shipowners who have him on their payroll and the political managers of New Democracy. The similarities with Aris Portosalte are many. After all, together they have marked a period when SKAI was outraged by plaguing the social resistance to the imposition of the memorandum programmes. As a journalistic duo they provoked the anger and disgust towards them from the majority of society. It is no coincidence, moreover, that at the news of the attacks on their homes the social reactions were jubilant from a multitude of people of our class.
